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

[Jine]

What I suspect is that the payout amount is somehow processed by Tycho's pool in floating
point somewhere in the pipeline (instead of being carried as a string all the way to the underlying
bitcoin payment processing engine), and that to be on the safe side of rounding errors, he
forces the number down to two digits of accuracy

You're wrong, It's a legacy since old versions of the Bitcoin-client didn't support it.

I hope so, because if that's the case, it's a very simple fix.

He is right.
As I said before, this is to prevent subcents loss by old bitcoin client usage.
I think that I'll add an option of full withdraw after some testing to check if it's working, but not on this week.

Don't worry, your subcents won't be lost in the pool.

Hi,
is there a way to withdraw ALL BTCs from Deepbit? I quit mining, and I have still 3.44146594 BTC in Deepbit. That means 0.00146594 BTC will be there forever since I can only cash out the first two decimals.

Since we all agree that 1 BTC >= 100.000 USD in the future, this is some serious amount of cash...

Indeed! That's at least 0.1 USD!

Quick question, there is an asterix beside my email on deepbit, how do I get it confirmed?

Hey Tycho,
Great pool, I appreciate what you do for us. Hope you are making a killing on this.

Quick Question,

Yesterday there was like a minute or two of downtime which you fixed really fast. This morning I checked and have earned about .46 BTC (1.5 GH) which is pretty normal. But on my stats page it says I haven't contributed any shares to any of the recent blocks. Do you know why? It looks like I am still getting paid for my shares.


Thanks,
Jeff

Site down for maintenance

By clicking on the link in your confirmation message.

Recently our messages were blocked by some e-mail service providers, most notably mail.ru and Yahoo. The first one is already whitelisted us, but there still can be problems with second.
I hope this issue will be fixed soon.

What's up with the History column?  It's blank for me

How do I get the message to be resent?  If one was incorrectly flagged as spam, it's long gone for me now.

Your email address will be marked as confirmed after clicking on any confirmation link from the pool.
Are you using Yahoo mail ?

It was disabled for a couple of minutes during site fixing process.

Sigh, all the pools are having issues right now

Anyone else's payment not actually make it to their wallets? I had a payment marked on my account, its been 4+ hours and its still not in my wallet.. When I check the transaction# via the link that the deepbit payments page provides, Blockexplorer.com says that its an invalid transaction number :-(..

Just thought I would ask if this is a one off issue, or if anyone else is having payment issues too.

Thanks

I too had problem today morning, i was running bitcoin client, so i got 0/unconfirmed.
It took 3 hours to get confirmation.
before taking payment, better run bitcoin client, so that it have all the blocks solved chain & atleast u get 0/unconfirmed.
until 1 confirmation, it wont show in bitexplorer.

With BTCguild mostly down, Deepbit is approaching 50% of the network hash power again. As you might now, if any one node controls 50% of the network they (or anybody who hacks them) can mess with Bitcoin integrity big time.

People, please protect our (and your) investment and go to another pool until Deepbit is well below 50% again. Thanks for your consideration.

What happened to the "Avg shares per block" and "Avg shares last 24hrs" stats on the Statistics page?

There was a difficulty adjustment recently, so we don't have enough samples yet to show average data.

I am in the same boat... It has been 3 maybe 4 hours and no payment has left DeepBit.

@Tycho, can you check on the outgoing payments? Starting to get worried.

EDIT: Just now showed up... sent the payment during block 135074 or 135075 and it wasn't included until 135093.

Well, it has left DeepBit and waited for confirmation.
Today we had longer TX queue than usual, you can take a look at it here: http://bitcoincharts.com/bitcoin

This is not nice, but you shouldn't worry, it will be confirmed eventually (I hope really soon, I reconfigured my server to include even more free TXes now).
