Topic: [4+ EH] Slush Pool (slushpool.com); Overt AsicBoost; World First Mining Pool - page 309. (Read 4382801 times)

Could be - or just could be people adding new kit - like me - added 3.6 TH/s to slush today. It's painful when you add new kit during a drought - but I'm patient

Could some of these be pointed here for testing?

15 hours aint nothing  Just had a 21 hour block not 3 days ago and we were only at like 3.4mil

15 hrs since last found block, it's about time ..

Dayum! Well this sux! Hopefully the extra hash power we will find at least 30% MORE blocks as IF this keeps up and my estimated reward stays as is...I WILL be finding another "small" pool to mine with, ugh, frustrating!

 ???WTF??? go to check and all of a sudden all this hardware is pointed here..... so much for one of the best kept secrets as a place to mine.

If its on the estimate, it could just be the normal glitch thing the estimate has been doing for a while, hash power is up on the of late normal rise we get, it was 4000 th for a little then it dropped to 3800 now its back up to 3900 atm.

I need more hash powers

my earning is cut by half

Holy bat crap radioactive man, we just broke 4000 TH

At the moment payout for actual round is on 30% of last value?! We got by suprise 3 times higher hashrate in pool?

nar that wont happen sorry to say,, to many dollars invested in hardware now

I just want this round to end so I can see what my /round pay is

maybe with the difficulty going up and up in future, the bitcoin system will come back to what it was meant to be in the first place,
and that is the ordinary smaller miners, but hey what do i know..being a newbie lol 

fun times ahead. have you seen what's coming up the pipe?

  Just noticed the network Diff is up to 13.5G up from 11.8G,, DOH' 

I don't know. Regardless, you don't need 51% of the network to double spend: https://bitcoil.co.il/Doublespend.pdf

didn't they do the double spend on a gambling site?

Yes, but they're wrong. Or GHash.IO broke 50% in the same way that other pools have - by solving one block out of two. Or for an hour or two. But not for any significant length of time. The most they've done in a day is 47%, and corrected for 'luck' the best they've done for in any 160-block period is 46% .

Nah - you read it wrong

Not so much, GHash has broken the 50% barrier for sustained periods of time. The old news was they were a threat to but promised never to grow that much. Remember the public statements from them and putting a halt to independent miners joining? The unwritten news is they lied through their teeth and continued to add hashing power to their private stash. You do recall they were already caught once performing a double spend attack, correct? It is new news, a current problem if they continue unchecked.

Every pool has broken the 50% barrier every block. If you don't get the next block, then you're still at 50% for two blocks. On a daily average, Ghash never got over 50% of the network. On a 160 moving average, GHash.IO might have just touched 50% once for an hour or so.

Short answer - no, GHash.IO hasn't "broken the 50% barrier". I'd be more worried abut the fact it even got to 40% of the network. It tells me that many - maybe most - miners are very short sighted.

Im guessing the real short answer is You can type but cannot read

You should try it or you are self proving your theory of short sight

I have no idea what you mean. What does that article have to do with anything I wrote?

Did you read it?
It kinda says along with the 1st article posted that GHash has broken the 51% before for an extended period and the power been was used maliciously which defies your short answer and view of many - maybe most miners

You mean "selfLESSness" right?

edit: hmm, you must've edited right before I clicked quote
