[DEAD] DeepBit.net PPS+Prop,instant payouts, we pay for INVALID BLOCKS too

[[Tycho]]

I justed tested your service. My ufasoft miner is running with 2mhash since 30minutes but in My Account I can not see any activity! Is it required to run the official client while mining with a rpc?

No.
Average time to generate one share with 2 MH/s is 35 minutes and 47 seconds
So there may be no activity even for one hour (depends on your luck).
When a valid share will be received from you, worker name in the table will turn blue - it means that everything is working.

Remember that balance and blocks history are updated once per hour.

It should be blue approximately at least once per hour.
Number of received shares should be greater than 0, but you may need to wait ~20-60 minutes for this.

2 MH/s is a VERY slow mining speed because you are mining with your CPU.
GPU miners run on average at 100-600 MH/s, so their stats are much easier to track on the site.

DiabloMiner now supports long polling (after much requesting).

Question: In my bitcoin client I added the 0.01 transaction fee

do I need to increase what I send by 0.01 or will it pull extra to cover that fee, or will it subtract from the amount I send (meaning the recipient gets less)

Thx

The site is getting really big. We were at 270 Gh/s this morning.

Hi,

I've been having a few problems with your website lately, taking a long time to load..
It's got to be on my side because it's only like that in Chrome, no problem with Firefox... any idea what could be causing this ? (Win7)

Besides that, I've been using your pool for a while now and really enjoy it, keep up the good work  

[Veldy]

Slush is not far behind.   However I am in a quandary as to which pool to stick with in the near term.  Slush only takes 2% and Tycho takes 3%, but the difference from long polling and invalids has been no more than 0.5%, so over time payout is slightly better with Slush.  Pretty miniscule overall.  Scoring on Slush is a slight disadvantage due to the need to shut down miners for small periods of time (my 6970 hangs when I try to watch any internet browser embedded video) which means accidental browsing to a page with a video on it (most news sites) will hang my computer, so I need to shut down the miner for some types of web browsing.  Advantage deepbit until slush implements long polling.

Also, I am a little worried about what was announced for BTCMine that closed down new registration.  Where are the reassurances that this can't happen in the two largest pools (potentially undetected).  Having said that, payout want doing do well when I was with them, so I left, but since I left and the announcement, the variance has definitely been in their favor.  Short term I know.

In short, the future holds a lit of promise for the pool that can break out with the best combination of features, fees and security is going to win the battle.

I think BTCMine made a mistake by going to 0% and relying upon donations (I think they will eventually shut down with that move).

If I am not mistaken, the 0.01 is taken out automatically when you send money.  The fee is added to whoever creates the block which holds your transaction and charges a fee.  Honestly, unless you solo mine our need very fast transaction execution, you probably shouldn't bother with using the transaction fee in you bitcoin client.  After the mining phase of bitcoin is over, then you may want to use a transaction fee.  For now, keep it free for the little guys (the big guys can charge each other if they want too).

I know I've said this before but is the server down ? I'm getting a 500 error on the website ?

[Digigami]

I belive the whole pool is down... all my miners connected to deepbit are saying "Problems communicating with boitcoin RPC"

Hope this is just a temporary outtage

[thisisharsh]

Wow, I literally just a minute ago withdrew all my 1.76 bitcoins (lol) from deepbit, then it went down! Hope it wasn't my fault!

Only noticed when my PC suddenly went quiet.  Don't realise how loud a mining operation is until it dies.

[Mugabuga]

Its down guys.

[Digigami]

All miners are back up and running now 

[thisisharsh]

Phew!  Back up.

Yeah, how dare he have a 5 minute outage...
