Eleuthria You are by far the best pool operator. When I started mining my first pool was Slush and I was amazed at the fact you answered so many questions on that pools thread you seemed to be the pool operator. This was the reason I switched to your pool. I wish you the best of luck in what ever you do post BTC Guild.

I'd be curious to know what the highest bid is...
Is it on Flippa? That's likely where I'd go to get the most bang for my buck if I was in this situtation.
Existing Business go for a lot of money, even premium domains.
I Might even join in on this party, always looking to expand business.
Ever thought of incorporating in another country? Or partnering with an existing, foreign company?
Incorporating in another country is about $1,000 and a partnership costs nothing.
Just saying, there's loopholes to every rule.
I just don't think you should give up that easily.

Sorry about the confusion last night. Daylight Savings Time took effect in the US, and many of the scripts used to estimate speeds are based on hourly data. I thought this was fixed, but apparently certain parts were still using local timestamps.
As for yesterday: We had 2x 11 hour blocks, but GHash.io orphaned one of our blocks. Ours was found much earlier than theirs, but they found another block to build off of their own, orphaning ours even when it shouldn't have been. It was bad luck either way, but it was compounded by GHash orphaning a block that shouldn't have been orphaned, turning 2x11 hour blocks into effectively a single 22-hour block.

A brief update on the weekend's events: BTC Guild is not closing down in the near future. BTC Guild is not being sold in the near future. I am beginning to go over options with some colleagues in other countries and lawyers to consider moving BTC Guild to another country. This may involve taking on a partner, but I would maintain the primary role in the management and operations of the pool itself. More on this will be made available as it develops.
That process will be the answer to the concern over regulation. The second part, the concern about the cost of a successful compromise of the pool, is something I am working on addressing. I have already made some changes to the pool hot wallet to significantly decrease the amount of funds kept online. It will mean failed withdrawals may happen more frequently (we haven't had that happen in many months), though it is preferable to have a few withdrawals delayed for 12-24 hours than have the site shut down due to a compromise.
I am also exploring ways that the pool could make a transition to coinbase payments to further reduce the amount of funds at risk at any given time. This probably won't happen for a few months, if it happens at all.

That is great to know. Now to get more miners off Discus Fish and ghash to BTC Guild and other responsible pools like it.

The response to the intent to close the pool were definitely weighing heavily on me. That was originally why I began to consider selling the pool to keep it running. After responding to the first wave of inquiries about buying the pool, I started to realize that selling the pool would likely not be possible. I could not separate myself from the pool, and the only thing going through my head over the last two days was the concern that if I sold it and somebody ruined it, opened it up to vulnerabilities, or wronged the users, it would be my fault even if it happened years after I was gone.
