DeepBit is actually a CIA front for their massive cluster.

Give Tycho 3% of all generated Bitcoin and you have an incentive for him to close registration.

Let the chips fall where they may.
No. The concern is that the operator can be coerced into doing bad things to the network. Having one person control two mining pools does not solve the problem.

IMO, most people should be solo mining. Most people don't like the prospect of waiting over a month to process a transaction block.

Well as you can see from my sig, I dont mine in that pool. But its kinda funny that all this hysteria is only driving people to deepbit... its like free publicity.

Are there any moderators in these forums? LOL.  WOuld be nice to have all these deepbit hate threads combined for easy viewing.

There is no hate. It's simply a matter of the Bitcoin network's health. I would prefer the entire front page be threads about this until it is resolved.

Kk let's make some threads Cheesy

Ehh, I'm not really a thread starter. Maybe you could bump some of the old ones. Smiley "You are threatening Bitcoin's security" is a good one.

Could someone ask the dude nicely to split the pool in two ? Deepbit1 and Deepbit2 ? Same shares system.. he'd still make the same running both pools, but they would 'compete' against each other to keep things the way they are supposed to be.
Would that work ?

No. What matters is what he controls, not how large the pool is.

He is undermining the concept of the currency.  it is dsitributed so that we can AVOID having a central authority.  He is in essence becoming the central authority to the block chain.  Since orphaned and/or forked block chains are not reported to anywhere, we will never know if he is perpetrating or attempting to perpetrate attacks with his dominant market share.

Other pools offer less fees and will amount to more payout over the same amount of time (on avg).  You are doing bitcoin a disservice by taking the essence of the currency and bending it over and letting someone have its way with it.
