Jeez it’s been a rough couple days

Pro - hashing will lose customers unless measures are taken on the premise that there is still a DOS attack, not a countermeasure to the situation

GregoryGHarding · · #7297

you should always have a backup pool eady to go,

VanessaEzekowitz · · #7298

Come ON, do something about the DDoS attacks :(

GregoryGHarding · · #7299

ok so looks like theyve activated cloudflare

The downtime caused nicehash to kill my order again, leaving me with slightly too small of a balance to redo my order at another pool :x

GregoryGHarding · · #7302

nicehash rant incoming

taka · · #7303

Do you have recommend another pool? i tryed to minig at miningpoolhub.com but I could not mining maybe setting wrong

GregoryGHarding · · #7304

multipool.us, give-me-coins

taka · · #7305

I know there also I could not mining matybe setting passwaord wrong

GregoryGHarding · · #7306

default pw's there is "x"

taka · · #7307

Ok I will try again

VanessaEzekowitz · · #7308

no rant here, just irritated.

taka · · #7309

passwoed is x and in nicehash Disconnected. Authorization failed.

taka · · #7310

@taka :  you have to register on those sites first :x

fattygrub · · #7312

@ GregoryGHarding you obviously lost your lunch at nicehash and don’t have the balls to get over it. Why do you keep promoting other pools at/from this site? the ones you you suggest to other suck big time, i know their worthless. so why do you promote them? do you have even one dollar in your pocket, creep? get off.

fattygrub · · #7313

they’re worthless

fattygrub · · #7314

i meant

fattygrub · · #7315

everyone don’t waste your time or electricity or dollars on any other pool. you spending time and efforts st crap pools services only the attackers and apparently @ GregoryGHarding .

fattygrub · · #7316

save your money by holding, don’t blow it elsewhere

FRISKIE · · #7317

A backup pool is wise to have. That said, as a primary, there is no better in my experience than Prohashing, and for those considering to use NH together with Prohashing, you can indeed be profitable. The trick is to pick your moment to set the order when prices have dipped to an acceptable low, and to use the best set of PW arguments that limit the fast coin switching to that sweet spot where you have less NH penalties, but still take advantage of the Prohashing algorithm. Anyone wishing to discuss best PW arguments can PM me.

fattygrub · · #7318

which backup pool? for a miner that owns equipment or a renter? they are all terrible! i suspect that why we are being ddos’d. do not waste your time or electricity or efforts.

fattygrub · · #7319

miningpoolhub? no service, flying blind

fattygrub · · #7320

hash to coins? no service, ok profits, with ton of tiny coins to exchange

fattygrub · · #7321

multipool.us? nope crap. flying blind there too. you suggesting others just start blasting 2000 watts into a black hole?

VanessaEzekowitz · · #7322

FRISKIE is right, but Nicehash has one major problem: you can’t set a backup pool when placing a hashing power order. Were that possible, I’d use Prohashing for the primary, and Litecoinpool.org for the backup (I do that with my ASICs actually).

tmopar · · #7323

i wish it was just 2000 watts

VanessaEzekowitz · · #7324

also I’d never suggest multipool.us because (when I last used them), you had to manually deal with linking dozens of coins to Cryptsy for cashing out. Screw that.

fattygrub · · #7325

miningrigrentals? they haven’t had a profitable rent there for months.

fattygrub · · #7326

genesis mining? scam. already broke and dying.

fattygrub · · #7327

there is only one. that is here. this one is the only very best. that is why we’re down. the european pools still hold the highest volumes. they are threatened by americans with better service, better language, better support, higher profits for ALL, computing power, and open-ness. look at all those pools..why don’t they have the balls to say who they are. only these guys do. look it up. find one and i’ll send you some btc.

tmopar · · #7328

anyone ever used ETHos?

AvPro · · #7329

@Chris/Steve, I know you are knee dip in sever issues but will cashout occur at usual time (i.e. soonish)? Much appreciated.

ran some tests with miningpoolhub last few days as a safety pool. Have not tried their coin changing thing, but the straight pools work well. Due to pplns confirmed coins may be slow to appear.

narmour · · #7331

servers down?

krivoship67 · · #7332

When the pool will work?

FRISKIE · · #7333

More DDoS fun, guys are working improved solution, will take a little longer - no ETA as of yet, but probably hours

topkhodon · · #7334

Litecoin make +30%, pool is dead... Sad...

FRISKIE · · #7335

Bad timing for sure :(

Tom3 · · #7336

Nobody is using zpool.ca? I have this pool no as my first, but earlier as backup-pool. They make auto payouts every 12 hours. Always worked. Scrypt is interesting, Qubit and Quark and X11 as well

I was watching LTC unusually strong climb at least half a day before the pool went offline :)

i dont promote other pools, i always say have a backup, having a baskup isnt promotion, and no, ive spend zero dollars on NH and will remain that way

GregoryGHarding · · #7343

fatty clearly has a thing for me.. its obivious :roll:

frphm · · #7344

Love is in the air <3

GregoryGHarding · · #7345

@fattygrub :  I understand a difference of opinion, but personal attacks are not acceptable. That’s all I have to say about that

mickeekung · · #7346

Does your local shop in your country have Pocari Sweet sell in there?

mjgraham · · #7347

i agree we dont need to attack each other, i used to use multipool but after you use this pool everything else is a lot harder to use, I hope they get it back soon, I do notice NH fixed rates are out the roof today so something is doing well

AvPro · · #7348

Spent the afternoon looking for alternative Scrypt pools to point too... nothing as good as this place! Keep us posted how the mitigation is going - eagerly waiting to connect as soon as we’re online (Y)

mickeekung · · #7349

@AvPro Prohashing is my life and my life is prohashing. If someday prohashing close forever,I'll quit from Bitcoin or Cryptocurrency too. Because there is no website can replace Prohashing. Forever.

mjgraham · · #7350

I agree this place is the best and I am sure that is why it is being attacked, this puts me back of the days of building coin wallets to mine against and building pools and etc, all the stuff they do behind the scenes for us, it is going to be better than ever I am sure.

FRISKIE · · #7351

it is going to be better than ever I am sure
Exactly - the attacks expose a vulnerability and the countermeasures bring the system back stronger than ever. Knowing that the attackers surely read the forums for clues , I'm just proud to see all the supportive messages from a community that shows no signs of going anywhere else than Prohashing! :)

Steve Sokolowski · · #7352

Chris hopes to have some success within two hours!

Sunegg · · #7353

Great news Steve!

frphm · · #7354

Great news Steve! Thanks for all the hard work!

We are getting rid of Cloudflare and going with Javapipe. Cloudflare only works with websites.

FRISKIE · · #7359

What makes me want to laugh is that these fools lost way more money in hiring these botnets than any of us lost in mining profits during the outage. I sincerely hope that when the dust settles, Steve & Chris will not have lost too much either, and that the hardened site and new DDoS protection layers will have made it all more than worth it.

frphm · · #7360

Steve I know you have a bad history on Reddit, but I’d like to note my support for opening the Prohashing subreddit as a backup for when the forum goes down.

d2391 · · #7361

Out of curiosity, what happened on reddit? I see that the prohashing’s account was banned

mjgraham · · #7362

well at least all the down time gives me a chance to improve my code a little more

lilbob · · #7363

iwould also like to help out on the forums if you need alurker mod. ill send ya a pm with resume of mod history

lilbob · · #7364

maybe not for now, but in the near if necesary im around all hours

AvPro · · #7365

Bitmain sold out of L3+ even for Sept batch . Any other asic reseller recommendations

lilbob · · #7366

lilbob · · #7367

frphm · · #7368

@d2391 :  Bitcoin Core went after him for speaking out against them.

AvPro · · #7369

Cheapest possible :p

frphm · · #7370

I see that Eastshore is sold out as well. Not sure of any other resellers.

lilbob · · #7371

lilbob · · #7374

and two glued together for 2900

AvPro · · #7375

I think there was an L3 frenzy over the weekend because they were instock on Friday @ ~1500USD which is a 35 day ROI at best. Looks like all going. Yeah teh Innosilicon A4 is still in stock but 250mhash

frphm · · #7382

PandaMiner is ETH, but it is 237 Mh/s which would be a monthly rev of $1400

AvPro · · #7383

Still a llittle bit unsure about investing more before 1 August tho

lilbob · · #7384
