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

[os2sam]

How can this pool be only at 3700 GH/s and find 17% of all blocks ?!?!
What is the real Hashrate of this pool ?

You need to stop relying on blockchain.info for identifying blocks.  They have -never- had Deepbit's blocks correctly identified since the day they made that pie chart.

At least it's not the same person asking the same question on the same page.

Still doesn't say much.

I dont understand how this pool has such a big piece of the network with a 3% fee??

It must be worth it somehow?

PPS is 10% fee IIRC. Prop is 3.5%

This pool currently has a very small proportion of the network, something like a fifth of a percent.  Also, I think three percent is an acceptable sized fee for a non-PPS reward method. Many pools without fees have failed before now, some more spectacularly than others.

Deepbit predates many other modern pools. Historically during a major boom in bitcoin price when a lot of other pools struggled with the sudden demand for more miners combined with loads of DDoS attacks on the pools, this pool was just about the only pool able to withstand the greater demand and showed a level of stability that was unparalleled so it attracted a great proportion of miners despite the higher fees. However, that's history now and the bitcoin mining landscape is completely utterly unrecognisable from those days... but this pool remains virtually unchanged from what it was in those days in fees and features.

use http://blockorigin.pfoe.be/blocklist.php  for blocks

12 hours i've made instant payout (0.18937 BTC) , but transaction 1adc5e1f11723131c0660c2647fff635a9ac8cafc41cfd27a9775f5f4a7625f7 is unavailable. Is there an error or something else?

[VeeMiner]

there must be some mistake on http://blockchain.info/pools cause deepbit is definitely not 12 percent of the network

blockchain.info is a private business, there is no money in providing accurate stats - there is even a thread stickied in the parent forum https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=123726.0
the guy that does http://blockorigin.pfoe.be/top.php does care - well worth looking at

Don't know why, but this question and answer seems a bit redundant.

There should be a limit to how many times a week someone asks it.

Can take a while longer. Varies up to a few days. (!)

The server at https://deepbit.net/ does not deliver the intermediary certificate of the CA "issuer=/C=US/O=GeoTrust Inc./OU=Domain Validated SSL/CN=GeoTrust DV SSL CA", therefore all browsers only trusting the GeoTrust root CA "GeoTrust Global CA" give a certificate warning (i.e. Iceweasel (Firefox) on Debian Wheezy).

Please fix the web server configuration to deliver the intermediary CA certificate together with the server certificate.

See also https://www.ssllabs.com/ssltest/analyze.html?d=deepbit.net for some ideas for improvement.

Tycho, the site is reporting that it is under maintenance for a little while. Could you tell us when it will be backup up?

After signing in, I get the following:
Please wait
Site is temporarily down for maintenance.

Made a 'payout' from the site on the 15th, still unconfirmed and no such transaction in the explorer:

https://blockexplorer.com/tx/5096e51dc0fcff9c2237a2621ab5c8efad8a4b5a947c56b7795bda7f905f6178

Usually its a day or so, never seen it take so long before.

[Gyrsur]

somebody mentioned deepbit is working only with self created blocks to include payout transactions and there was no block created by deepbit since several days. so it make sense in my opinion. if deepbit will find the next block the transaction should be included for payout.

I've had 2 USB block erupters going on Deepbit just to get my old balance up to a level I can transfer out and in the time I've been running them, Deepbit solved 4 blocks.  My balance hasn't increased at all.  With such a small pool, even my 700mh/s should've brought in over a bitcent per block but I haven't seen or heard anything.  Yesterday I emailed the pool and today I posted on here and pm'd Tycho.  Anyone else using it and didn't get paid for blocks: 258411, 258584, 258615, 258631?

There's been 3 since then too, but that should be impossible for a pool only pulling 1000GH/s so does he have some private pools or servers there submitting that's confusing the block chain?

[Gyrsur]

blockchain.info is mostly wrong if reported a block solved by deepbit. you have to look into your account on deepbit or monitor http://deepbit.net/stats every day to get an overview if deepbit solved a block.

EDIT: or better use always this source: from the 2016 last blocks solved by deepbit are 256845, 257028, 257957 and 258009. http://blockorigin.pfoe.be/blocklist.php

[Havek]

Oh, looks like those 4 I mentioned were just incorrectly traced by blockchain.info.  Looks like 2 were from GHash.io, one from HHTTMP, and one from a Private Pool.  Weird.
Sorry Tycho!  I'll keep mining a little on deepbit and hopefully get my balance a little higher (looks like it's getting a block every 4 days on average and deepbit is about due for one).

Pool rate: 943 Gh/s

No blocks found last 4 days.
