I don't think it is something you did. Slush indicates his pool is under attack and deep bit users are indcating connectivity issues.

I'm referring to the fact that this all happened a few minutes after I posted that I had submitted a giant list of IPs that I had been collecting from the botnet miners the last few days. Could very easily be the childish mentality of these "hackers": "Oh yeah, well I'm going to take my ball and go home, but first I'm going to pop your ball."

Maybe I poked the hornet's nest with my IP list this morning...one mining server is now completely offline and can't be accessed. Moving the load balancing around, sorry for the downtime but it looks like its hitting everybody right now.

Right now merged mining is mostly being put off due to lack of time, a few new business ventures I'm trying to launch by the end of the year.

When it does hit, I'm still working on how I will go about awarding the coins, and how to make it easy to understand when reviewing your rewards. It will probably just merge any NMC balance changes into the bitcoin round, so when we found a BTC block, it will include a separate column for NMC earned, and namecoins mined during that BTC block will be split using the same percentages.

Sounds awesome. And, it is good to know you like to think these things through ahead of time. *points at some of the other pool ops* Kiss

Well, I do support that you are anti botnet, It is one of the reasons why my 7gh/s is pointed at you. Thx

I don't think so. Our attacker wasn't malicious, it was just one of the many trojans out there that try to use BTC Guild. A large # of CPU miners will make a pool unresponsive, there's nothing any pool can do to stop it other than throw more hardware or attempt to filter them out at the ISP level (once they hit your machine they're already straining your servers).

Deepbit seems to be completely offline right now, which points to a deliberate attack rather than just a botnet attempting to mine.

Is this related to what deepbit has now?

Been fighting off a persistent botnet for the past 48-72 hours. Things should be getting back to normal now, contacted the ISP with a database over over 500,000 IP addresses that were involved in the attacks.

Not really, many resolved blocks with no income to me, 2 to 3 bitcoin in total.
Please check it Sad

:/ Are they atleast showing in the Unconfirmed?

Mine were down about 15% but without adding up every share and figuring what it should be, I assume it was due to all the long rounds.

Hello,

My Confirmed Rewards haven't been updated in many hours, whats wrong?

super long round. Confirmed rewards update roughly 1 hour after a block is found.

"last_block":{"block_id":0,"btc_earned":0,"btc_donated":0,"shares":0}}

been showing that for days instead of updating each block. Everything else seems fine.

Btw, any plans to do merged mining?

eleuthria,

I've noticed that the "Estimated Shares This Round" has been changed to "Round Shares". Has the ~1 hr delay on stats been removed ? Are the stats real-time now ?

The last share issue should now be fixed (it should no longer show 24 hours randomly). The idle miner email issue has also been fixed, you should resume receiving idle emails if something is wrong with your miner.

Looking good eleuthria. Thanks for all your hard work!
