I usually mine on Slush's pool, but that went down this morning, so I jumped over to deepbit, which timed out. Then I registered and set up with BTC Guild, and their servers are failing as of about 10 minutes ago.
What the heck is up in the bitcoin pool world today???/

Transactions must be included in a block to be properly completed. When you send a transaction, it is broadcast to miners. Miners can then optionally include it in their next blocks. Miners will be more inclined to include your transaction if it has a higher transaction fee.

Mine on a mid-sized pool  Deepbit, slush, and btcguild are easy targets. This is a perfect example why too much hash power to a single pool is not a good idea. |

just have your miners setup with multiple backup pools configured as failovers. sooner or later your miners will automatically switch over to a pool thats running.

taking 2x longer per block approx. this could be good to help dock a lot of the higher pools and distribute the hashing better.

Will do. I'm using GUI Miner. Is there a better way to do it than the -f60 trick? Seems inelegant and wasteful to have a card splitting resources in 'good times' |

It seems like it, at least it's the most plausible explanation if we don't take any conspiracy theories into account. |

I'm thinking the same thing. Attempt to spike difficulty down at the last couple hundred blocks before adjustment.

Just shy of 2 hours with no blocks found put that in your variance pipe and smoke it.

I'm really shocked about how many people still mine on deepbit: big fees, no 8-decimal pays, not particular clear interface, and... not DDoS-reluctant...
So, the worst pool has the biggest power. Incredible!

pretty interesting if you consider to perform a 51% attack you start by knocking out as many of the biggest pools you can (that will be about 3) then commence with your hashing might against whats left
