Oh, so no worries then.  I'm sure this'll turn out great.  Just like when pirateat40 claimed he'd be sending everybody's coins back in no time.
Well, I got mine back from pirateat40 plus interest, so maybe there is hope. Grin
Code:
Date: 8/22/2012 10:24
Net amount: +106.925872 BTC
Transaction ID: c2d0742df8df67c0507fd270b3c262f8a0118ba3a9b91357c83a04d952d0a32d
I only kept 1BTC here, as I was paid out on the hour if it went over that, but was gone for several days when payouts stopped, so they got me for a few BTC before I caught it when I got back. Anyway, I hope it gets sorted, but not expecting it. I have no contract with them, I signed no agreements, they did not force me to mine here. I went into it for the money and knew they were in Russia and took that into consideration knowing full well that if it went under or vanished one day I would not see anything being in the US. It's like in the old days during the gold rush, when a mine collapsed, if you were lucky to get out alive, you moved on and found work elsewhere. Good luck taking legal action. I'm sure with the coin they were pulling down, and it's appreciation since they stopped paying out, I'm sure they are quite insulated. Mining pools are not banks, keep your hard earned BTC there as short a time as possible. A big life lesson for some I guess. Undecided

But that's not the biggest question I have.  What I don't understand is why there are still people mining on 50BTC...


People who rarely check their hardware and possibly those who mine offsite.
People who received miners as gifts (eg BE USB's) and were never really sure what the deal with them was.
Noobs who are new to mining and can't tell that there is all kinds of problems with the site at the moment.

What I taught too...  Those people would deserve to be shot!  At least, make a gift, give up your mining equipments to someone who need/care about receiving money!  Grin

I'm not so sure that the x10,000 thing mentioned above (for what was done by the hack to the account balances) is true for everyone.

I had somewhere between 0.3 and 0.5 available on 50BTC before the problems; I tried to withdraw and moved to another pool.  But if I divide what they say is my balance (108 BTC) by 10,000, that's only .0108.

Yes I am Serious I have been talking to the over the last few days and Yes they are Working on the System, They are getting ready to bring a WHOLE new system online ( next week they will be testing the new system and load and stress testing the system along with Penetration testing to see if the new system is hackable, they have expressed their Sincere apologies in not keeping in touch with everyone as they have been working NON stop on the new system.

They said after the testing of the new system they will be bringing it online and making it available for use and they will start sorting through the Old Database and trying to get People Paid

They took payments offline due to the hack and did not want any payments going out so that the funds could be secured in a offline wallet so that incase the hackers coded a back-door into the system they could not get at anymore of the pools funds..

I see i am now starting to get msg's because of my Last Post So i hope this answers all your folks questions

I will be online or if you goto my site I have a Toll-Free number on my site that you can call me at if you have any questions you would like to ask but I ask Please Dont Call after 10:30 PM EST Since I am In FL on the East Coast of the US

This sounds like antagonizing news. They need to restore trust before fixing the system. Well, they can do whatever, but I don't think people will return to their system until they restore trust.

Why 50BTC balance is 0?
I have total share 800 in the mining menu of 50btc website. But the balance in the right is 0 BTC.
Should my current btc = total share x PPS?
Another question is
Pay per share rate
Share difficulty   Pay
4   0.0000003623036164 BTC

Is this data correct? Missing one 0?

Hmm. Looking at the payouts, my last two attempts are no longer in process, but deleted entirely, leaving my balance 0. Yet the payout for the incorrect 136 Btc is still showing in process. Wtf?

no, i'm telling you i requested a payout of the (then correct) payout, which never happened but showed as in process, the incorrect amount (which i had no intention of keeping, mind you) and then another payout, which i think was correct as well, from my mining before i read about the trouble.

i'm owed about .04 btc. that's all.

i don't post much, but this space for rent.

I've emailed the BTC foundation on behalf of everyone affected to see if there is any possible way of recourse in the worst case scenario. And have found quite a bit of information regarding the location of the ip addresses and other things. one thing I found is that 50btc is linked to another subdomain http://www.magdeveloper.com/ - I don't know if they are the same individuals running these as each, but another thing about 50btc is that about the 15/11/2013 they set up a DDOS protection server and that 50btc is still relaying blocks, just that their website is not updating, which would present that they are still active. So they may still be under the process of doing what they actually claim to be doing, of course with no ways of contacting them there is no way of actually learning anything of what is happening, all anyone can do is think the best whilst being prepared for the worst.

[11/26/2013 12:05:03 AM] Pool 50BTC.com VIP Support: We’ve discussed a possibility of “half-payment”.

We know that it is not much comforting to you but we’re doing everything we can to solve your issues and leave you out of the jail or any legal actions.

[11/27/2013 4:20:32 AM] The Free Bitcoins List: I now have to figure out what i am gonna do to pay my rent since all my funds had to be used to post my bail on my charges related to what is going on with the pool funds being locked up
[11/27/2013 4:21:37 AM] The Free Bitcoins List: So you need to tell me what is gonna happen  so that i am not evicted because of this
[11/27/2013 4:21:54 AM] The Free Bitcoins List: I do not have time to wait weeks
[11/27/2013 4:24:24 AM] Pool 50BTC.com VIP Support: You have full rights to be pissed but we can assure you that we're doing everything we can to hasten the process.

[11/27/2013 4:26:52 AM] The Free Bitcoins List: 1 week or 2 weeks before you send the funds??? cuz my bail was a cash bond which means that if i get the funds to the company they will drop charges and i will get my bail money back

[11/27/2013 4:42:25 AM] The Free Bitcoins List: ok and how would i be a part of it

[11/27/2013 5:00:41 AM] The Free Bitcoins List: Huh
[11/27/2013 5:02:53 AM] Pool 50BTC.com VIP Support: Currently our main goal is to start a new system and we're working on it as hard as we can.  We have a lot of pending payments so it could take some time to sort things out with an old billing system. There are a lot of issues with it that has to be taken care of.
[11/27/2013 5:04:51 AM] The Free Bitcoins List: i thought you said my issue was first?
[11/27/2013 5:12:51 AM] Pool 50BTC.com VIP Support: It is a top priority for us. Those issues are old billing system related and need to be taken care of first. Hopefully we will elaborate on this in the upcoming status update.
