Yeah I probably should have been clearer with my question...

Anyone know why blockchain.info isn't able to provide accurate information about those blocks?

heh, yer
I think they are having problems.
Ozcoin found 7 blocks yesterday alone Wink

so i guess 0.0.0.0 is the default for "unknown" and lots of pool blocks are being counted there

Just seems like an awkward error. You'll notice the block counts for 24, 48, and 96 hours dont change for the known pools. Looks like something erased the association between blocks & their relay pool/IP for blocks older than ~15 hours.

Butterfly Labs is testing their new "Deep Space Mining System" (DSMS). Availability, 4-6 weeks. Taking pre-orders now.

LOL. Maybe it's a Spaceball One.

For Bitcoin to be a true global currency the value of BTC needs always to rise.
If BTC became the global currency & money supply = 100 Trillion then ⊅1.00 BTC = $4,761,904.76.
