Once a transaction has 6 confirmations, it is extremely unlikely that an attacker without at least 50% of the network's computation power would be able to reverse it.

Sorry for this pause :) Did you switch servers because of the outage our as an upgrade? Technical problems unrelated to mining, don't worry - it will not affect you. As you may see (well, after the one hour delay :), some nice blocks were found around this time. I hope that m0mchil or Kiv will implement my failover extension soon so the switching will be instant in case of something like this. |

European server will be rebooted shortly, this will pause mining for 2 minutes and will only affect 20% of users. If you see some problems with RPC connection during this time - it means that your DNS server is not respecting TTL field and you should consider using some good and fast DNS like Google Public DNSEDIT: Reboots are over, everything is fine. |

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).
I change my mind about BTCMine's decision to block open registration. They did implement a method for automatic donation and that changes my perspective on their decision greatly. I have more hardware online (provided the main board is intact ... waiting on new PSU) and feel they may be the best choice available to me ... I need to give it some time similar to what I have given Slush and Deepbit. I think the market drop may be a combination of the closing of PayPal with Coinpal and the fear that the same thing will happen to Mtgox. The need for a new exchange to cash is a great opportunity, but until then, there will be some depression knowing that it may be difficult to get bitcoins exchanged. Also, I think that the reason for BTCMine closing registration may be valid and potentially systemic in the pools. I hope not, but I don't like the odds after all the sudden profit taking. Tycho and Slush, please watch your pools. |

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)
Is the issue gone now or not ? Besides that, I've been using your pool for a while now and really enjoy it, keep up the good work ;)
Thanks, you are welcome :) |

Not so good because of the situation with coinpal/coincard. But i'm trying to find another way to do this. |

I requested a payout 2 1/2 hours ago. The amount was deducted from my account, but has not been received by my wallet (I'm using mybitcoin and the same address I've used for all my other payouts). When I click on the date on my deepbit payout screen I get a "No Such Transaction" page on blockexplorer. Where did my payment go?

Blockexprorer shows your transaction only after it's inclusion in the block. If your transaction is not in the block yet, you can search for it in the queue: http://www.bitcoincharts.com/bitcoinIf you think that something is wrong - PM me your login name and i'll check it myself. |

Yup, it shows in the queue. I've never had a transaction take so long to work it's way through the system. Thanks for the info and the link. |
