who needs it? 2FA?

Konov · · #6273

not to loose daily income?

VanessaEzekowitz · · #6274

Konov, "people" are complaining because the bots on NH are sapping profits away to just a few people by taking hashing power away, while prohashing is making things profitable for *everyone* who has hashing power of some kind

GregoryGHarding · · #6275

people who wish to keep their accounts secure

GregoryGHarding · · #6276

last week there was a n account robery

GregoryGHarding · · #6277

or the week before.

Konov · · #6278

Well, just do not use NH if you think it’s not fair LOL

Konov · · #6279

account robbery because of users theirselfs

Konov · · #6280

make smart passwords. keep your pc safe. that all.

GregoryGHarding · · #6281

like i said.. NH is gambling. you ether come out with profit, or you lose. and thats why il never use it

VanessaEzekowitz · · #6282

a strong password won’t stop a determined black hat from using things like security questions to reset your password.

GregoryGHarding · · #6283

Konov, not a good way of thinking when it comes to crypto security ;)

Konov · · #6284

If you got secure password, secure computer, there is no way to crack password, the only way is to crack service provider itself

GregoryGHarding · · #6285

someone lost 8k in bitcoin. and it wasnt because he was an idiot.. the hacker social engineered a verisign tech to get information, reset pssords gained access and too everything

GregoryGHarding · · #6286

Konov, your loss if it happens, you can never be sure. 2FA makes sure your shit is safe

Konov · · #6287

ok. it was hack on a user himself

GregoryGHarding · · #6288

if it wasnt needed it wouldnt exist

Konov · · #6289

and 2fa can be hacked buy social too

VanessaEzekowitz · · #6290

Konov, 2FA prevents such things. you can’t hack a cell phone you don’t have and don’t know the phone number to.

VanessaEzekowitz · · #6291

something you know, your password. Something you have, your phone.

Konov · · #6292

and you cant hack without password

GregoryGHarding · · #6293

no, 2fa is a 30 second token that is personal to your phone

Konov · · #6294

LOL

Konov · · #6295

I do now, what is 2fa

Konov · · #6296

it is not personal to phone

Konov · · #6297

it s

VanessaEzekowitz · · #6298

It usually is.

Konov · · #6299

it is personal to a key token

VanessaEzekowitz · · #6300

doesn’t have to be, but for most people, their phone is the "something you have" part

GregoryGHarding · · #6301

and mine is locked to my fingerprint

Konov · · #6302

if you got key token - you got 2fa ;)

VanessaEzekowitz · · #6303

for others, it’s a key fob of some kind

Konov · · #6304

so, there are many ways to crack 2fa by social engeniring too

Konov · · #6305

;)

VanessaEzekowitz · · #6306

Greg, you shouldn’t lock a mobile device using a fingerprint. too easy to compromise. Better a complex password that’s easy for you to remember. you can always change the password, but you can’t change your thumbprint.

Konov · · #6307

and do not forget to mention, if you will lost your phone - you will lost 2fa

GregoryGHarding · · #6308

GregoryGHarding · · #6309

my week with 1/2 mh's on hashflare. perminant contract. il be going up to 5mh/s later this week

Konov · · #6310

the good practice is do not open links on a chat LOL

Konov · · #6311

If you want for funds to stay safe

VanessaEzekowitz · · #6312

Konov, if you’re worried about opening a link, you’re using the wrong OS.

GregoryGHarding · · #6313

its a google spreadsheet :/

Konov · · #6314

Vanessa, I’m worring about my funds

Konov · · #6315

so, this is a good practice - do not open ANY links on a publis sources

Konov · · #6316

including emails

GregoryGHarding · · #6317

then use 2fa and an offlne wallet like coinomi

Konov · · #6318

I’m using many things, but 2fa for the pool? Well it’s a silly

GregoryGHarding · · #6319

all professional and popular pools have 2fa

Konov · · #6320

2fa is sound great. and yes "professional"

GregoryGHarding · · #6321

thats fine if you dont thing its smart to use.. but when you realise your payouts are going to an address thats not yours, theres only one person to blame

Konov · · #6322

but the right thing is - make email confirmation for every withdraw/change in withdraw address - I bet it will be enough

Konov · · #6323

2fa must be on exchange and email. On a pool any email confirmation will be enough!

GregoryGHarding · · #6324

man we need a mod to rid these advertising bots, ive offered but no response

GregoryGHarding · · #6325

anyway.. bedtime

Konov · · #6326

... а у нас тока утро настало. LOL

AvPro · · #6327

1mhz ? you earn a stuning 0.09 cents per day :?: :roll:

piet · · #6329

did you see * as far as mining remains profitable greg ? its not a lifetime contract

ilgam · · #6330

WTF?! The payment went to another purse!

ilgam · · #6331

тут есть русские ? может мне кто нибудь объяснить, почему выплата ушла на другой левый кошелек

Konov · · #6332

тебя поломали

ilgam · · #6333

объясни, тут немного не понимаю, пытался вывести вручную монеты, не получалось, как будто стоит минималка на вывод, я правильно понял ?

ilgam · · #6334

опять же, почему тогда не прошла минималка на лайт коин кошелек, не понятно вообще : (

FRISKIE · · #6335

@ ilgam - did you have 2FA enabled? Oh right, Konov argues against it :D lol

ilgam · · #6336

no have 2FA

If you’d like to get rid of these bots, we’d be glad for the help

FRISKIE · · #6338

Put the man to work, yeah! The ad bots are on the rise!

mjgraham · · #6339

now if we could get the f_all_balance_updates fixed in WAMP I would about be a happy person.

Forum notification · · #6341

has started a new topic: 2FA quirk. Payout addresses attempt to load page before authentication

fattygrub · · #6342

does anyone else think shares are behind right now?

fattygrub · · #6343

nevermind, maybe not

AvPro · · #6344

Oh oh look at BTC price

pilottage · · #6345

look at your hashrate graphs (and the pool one) its down 2/3 normal... I hash 256 it shows 60 for the last 3 hours...

lilbob · · #6346

i dunno man, im getting more than ever today

tmopar · · #6347

steady on the price... you know one day it will be worth even more than the 3gs, people are taking profits... im snapping some up, just modified my earnings 25% eth, 75% btc

FRISKIE · · #6348

Shares are definitely behind, I've contacted Chris at contact@prohashing.com and asked him to check it and give a manual kick . .

AvPro · · #6349

it’s 10mins behind right now on the homepage which is weird because pool hash rate is well below the new max

GregoryGHarding · · #6350

its possiblt theres a database scrypt running like vacuum or maybe its a bug in the new coding, who knows. but if an email is sent im sure they will look into it

AvPro · · #6351

i think its fine @FRISKIE :  what time of day do you think you have a gap

Steve Sokolowski · · #6352

GregoryGHarding wrote: its possiblt theres a database scrypt running like vacuum or maybe its a bug in the new coding, who knows. but if an email is sent im sure they will look into it
Chris is going to look into this right now

FRISKIE · · #6353

what time of day do you think you have a gap
There was a period a little while ago where Scrypt shot up to something like 30-40 cents, I suppose because the shares were catching up . . but, they can always fall behind again at any time :)

they really shouldn't fall behind after the upgrades yesterday, unless we hit 1.15th's

FRISKIE · · #6355

Shouldn’t, but did at least once today, fell way behind, shares not counting at all for maybe as long as an hour, I didn’t monitor close enough to say exactly. But when the dam broke they all counted up in a hurry.

GregoryGHarding · · #6356

ssteve just said chris is looking into that instance

FRISKIE · · #6357

Uhum, was just responding to your comment that it shouldn’t happen after the upgrade, but it did :)

GregoryGHarding · · #6358

i was refering to if there was an error that chris is fixing..lol text makes things confusing sometimes

FRISKIE · · #6359

yeah, it does :)

FRISKIE · · #6360

good god the NH bots have gone crazy!! https://i.imgsafe.org/1982f43026.png

There was a problem that wasn’t related to database overload that Chris fixed, which caused it to catch up. I’m looking into that one now.

VanessaEzekowitz · · #6362

@Steve Sokolowski :  please check your forum PMs. I’ve sent you an exchange/payout request.

FRISKIE · · #6363

Hey Vanessa - they usually point us to this email address to send in these types of requests - contact@prohashing.com

FRISKIE · · #6364

Though I’m sure they’ll see the PM too :)

GAWminer27 · · #6365

you guys should tell Chris..whatever he fixed today, to please screw it back up, its made The whole world of Crypto prices start crashing, whatever it was must have been holding it all together...lol

FRISKIE · · #6366

Yeah it’s pretty ugly out there today :-o

tmopar · · #6367

dont lose hope... the market goes up and down... the fundamentals of the item have not changed, no ones broken it or discovered 30 million extra coins somewhere..... its profit and loss, people playing the market... just keep calm cooler heads will prevail

tmopar · · #6368

im buying up... for the first time in a couple weeks

tmopar · · #6369

75/25

FRISKIE · · #6370

You know it, if anything bottoms out nicely it’s an opportunity

tmopar · · #6371

im staked pretty evenly but still, i heard somewhere best to buy when theres blood in the streets and that readout looked bloody enough for me
