they don't would mine two blocks it's a non sense.
Probably they found two solutions (both invalid!)
No. Miners cannot find two solutions without running two processes (i.e. two pools). Neither of the blocks were invalid, they simply were not built upon by other miners so those blocks became stale (orphaned).Probably they found two solutions (both invalid!)
franky1's answer is the most likely answer for this situation.
This is my speculation as well, but even if only one of those blocks were orphaned/staled, they just lost a full block, $10k+ for having poor communication between their own nodes.
It is possible that that is mis-attributed. There is no guarantee that BitFury produced those blocks, so it is possible that another miner simply produced a block that have the characteristics of a BitFury block but wasn't actually.
Both coinbase txs have Bitfury in data:

Found this when randomly looking at orphaned blocks data.

Why would BitFury be work on two blocks of the same height? By doing so, if two are found, one of them would certainly be orphaned. In this case, both were.

Thanks for all the designs, but I'm pretty sure that logo belongs to bitgo.
Nice contest! :-)
I'm in for sure with my design
Looking forward to it. We decided that we'll increase the prize for someone who goes above and beyond
I'll try to submit it there, but I really don't understand at all how things work in reddit 
Just that, but if it's necessary I'll learn, no problem.
Just that, but if it's necessary I'll learn, no problem.Just upload the image to imgur, and paste link in comments.
Is there any possibility to submit my design in this thread or make it through bitcointalk? I have a Reddit account but I don't really use it. Thanks
Why can't you just submit there if you have an account? I don't mind seeing your design here, but it would just be nice to have it all in once place for everyone else (especially with reddit's voting system).
The official bounty thread is here: https://redd.it/3pu4jd
Feel free to ask questions or discuss here, but entries must be submitted in the reddit thread.

Re: [2015-10-13] Purse.io users’ accounts compromised, hackers stole 10,235 BTC
i got an email couple months ago about purses security being compromised and password change advice. i just decided to stop using purse lol, guess i made a pretty goo decision
That email was regarding phishing attempts. Purse hasn't had any other security breaches.
Purse.io also has a 1% donation program that gives to BitGive at no cost to you. (Do your normal shopping, and 0.5% goes directly to Bitgive in BTC, and up to 0.5% goes to charity of buyer's choice)
I have 10x $25 Whole Foods Gift cards.
These are physical cards that I had for a long time and never used. I can provide photo and even mail them to you if you'd like.
Selling them for $0.95 on the Dollar.
Happy to use localbitcoins for escrow: https://localbitcoins.com/ad/165910

Sometimes when I want to buy the whishlist and I confirm that I want to put it in my cart, it says it's empty... Anyone got a solution ?
That's because the spender deleted the wishlist and Purse basically cancel those orders. Just pick a different wishlist to purchase.
Re: I Buy Purse.io Level 5 account, and Verfied Brawker account
Do you know what the requirements are for each level. I just logged into my account and its level 3 so not sure whats the requirements for 4 and 5. My account is supposed to be a founders account but not sure if they ever did it but they emailed me and told me it would be. I was with purse when it first opened

You can increase your limit immediately by verifying your phone number.

I will send you the code, you bought a 5$ gift card for for 2.48$ worth of bitcoin
Mind giving me the card first?
IMO you should use purse.io, they allow you to fill gift list orders and the person receiving the gift list would pay in bitcoin. Their site has an escrow system in place that can monitor the status of the order and will automatically credit your account as the order is delivered.
I thought about it, but isn't it require send items from amazon? I'm not sure about it, but i think it's impossible to buy gift cards with gift card.
Most offers on Purse are not gift cards. They are physical items. You buy someone's offer, they give you BTC.
