You know what strikes me about this latest fiasco, how little they have learned from past debacles. How many times does it have to blow up in their face before they get serious about making changes to how they run their organization?

I'm pretty sure that hacker's nickname is "nginx", I saw the signature on the defaced hashtalk page. They should check if hashlets were exploited by the same person. Offer a bounty on HT to catch him/her. Nothing unites the community better than some good old witch hunt.

My payout is .12 less than yesterday's  Roll Eyes

Yeah payouts were shit today!

What are the weekly payout avgs on LTCgear? I am thinking of going in on there soon...

Yea, everything is shit today.. Payouts, no withdrawals, Market fiasco, "exploits"... what else.... Oh, HT is down now...

Now DD is half as valuable since LTC pool sucks ass.. Pretty frustrated right now with everything.

It's always nice they announce obvious issues a few hours-to-a-day after we already experienced it on the site.

Resellers for "virtual" miners is ridiculous, for physical shipped to customers its ok.
But for hashlets...

6) Announce that the attackers had gotten away with the theft, and there is no way to trace their accounts (which were dummy accounts).  All the BTC they took is gone, and the buyer of the 1 mhs unit (for which he paid 25x what he should have) will just have to suck it up, because theft sucks but its not the cloud mining company's fault now is it?

Slight problem, the 10% fee and the whole idea of marketplace was supposed to shield the buyer from fraud. Granted it was mostly about credit card chargebacks and such, but it would be a pretty serious turnabout to deny that.

If I were one of those buyers, I would be getting lawyered up and getting subpeonas out to trace the accounts of the **sellers** and get access to the true facts about how this "mistake" was made, before the evidence disappears.  It is extraordinarily unlikely that the events above transpired in the way GAW has said.  


What's that famous saying - "Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity" ?

I think it is likely that there was a technical/human error with the activation codes, and we've seen plenty of errors of all kinds in ZenCloud so no big leap of faith needed here. The explanation, the fix, the aftermath - that's where it's getting harder and harder to suspend disbelief.

But as far as conspiracies go - wouldn't it be great if it turned out that one of the resellers/moderators was involved  Grin. I wonder how much control does a reseller have in issuing those codes.

Here would be a great way for a cloud mining company to harvest large amounts of BTC from unsuspecting sheep:

1) Sell 25mhs units to dummy accounts (sprinkle in a few legit users for good measure), but label them as 1 mhs units and charge as 1 mhs units

2) Through the dummy accounts, resell on as 25 mhs units on the newly opened marketplace

3) Transfer out the proceeds of sale to replenish the scam's coffers

4) Announce that hackers had exploited the speedy mighty hash units and shut down the whole system for a while for "investigation"

5) Change the 25 mhs units back to 1 mhs

6) Announce that the attackers had gotten away with the theft, and there is no way to trace their accounts (which were dummy accounts).  All the BTC they took is gone, and the buyer of the 1 mhs unit (for which he paid 25x what he should have) will just have to suck it up, because theft sucks but its not the cloud mining company's fault now is it?

7) Shut down all marketplace sales because of the "hackers" and require all future purchases through "legit" resellers

problem solved!!!
