What might happen with those users who didn't enter an email address? (including me...)
How can they log in again, if all passwords were resetted?  Undecided

Perhaps they didn't reset all of them?

No offense to you personally warsmith, but paranoia pays around these parts.

None taken. It would destroy the thread and the user's browsers if I'd pasted the whole 3mb text file as a reply.
Anyway. I hope everyone changes the password asap when it comes back online.

Would somebody scan that thing on a computer isolated from sensitive bitcoin related material?


Dude, treat it as a plain text *.TXT....

How do you think the released passwords for MtGox accounts will impact the BTC price? Personally, I think it will drive the price down, because of the bad publicity related with such leaks.


P.s. http://www.megaupload.com/?d=XHMMAIU8 <- The file with the accounts and  hashed (maybe salted too?) passwords.

Re: Huge Bitcoin sell off due to a compromised account - rollback

if you're gonna roll the prices back why not just and put all your money back in a fake government backed money bank. if you're too fucking stupid to set a long enough password to prevent it being stolen you deserve to have it all stolen. Regulating the market is NOT in the spirit of bitcoin.

I agree.

(because I had 100s of fulfilled orders @ 0.1 BTC)  Angry

Finaly - at least some statement.
Well at least this not catastrophic scenario.
Do you think the price will be <12$ when it comes back up?

it didn't crash, nor it glitch out. Simply someone cashed in their own or stolen BTC in a public market.

Well, should we start to panick ?


that's never a good solution


MTGOX HAXED?
i mean, who will sell that much bitcoins?

more likely an early adopter got his wallet taken over.

Someone dumped around 300k bitcoins for 0.01$. Awesome.

It would be very unwise for miners to sell right now. Just putting it out there if anyone is worried and considering dumping. This fluctuation should resolve itself within a day or so. Buying right now is actually a better decision (anywhere below 16 isn't too bad, but 12 would be sweet).
All IMO

That's exactly what a person about to cash in would say  Wink

Re: who thinks value will drop back down to single digits?

$14 and dropping fast Smiley

What do you reckon, buy @ $10 ?

$13 !! price is dropping every click of the mouse button ... go go go

Hmm, I'm thinking buy @ $5 - $7

My humble prediction is that it'll plummet to sub $10 in the very near future. Once below 10, the floodgates will open and a lot of panicking people will want to cash in, driving the value even lower (exactly what we're seeing now, just on a grander scale). Wether there's gonna be a dead cat bounce or not, hard to tell.

This all makes me think about returning all the hardware back to store - here in Russia we have 2 weeks grace period where we can return stuff to the store even if there is no issues with it..

That's a good idea.
Although I am not from Russia, I will do the same if the value drops bellow $10-12 (loaned hardware FTW).

Re: 6950 + system hanging

i have 3 6950s unlokced and i run them at 1.2v and i can get to 930 core and if i go to 1.25 i can get to 960 to pull about 410mhs per card. and 900 is still a lot for stock vcore the 6970 runs at 880 stock core at 1.17v so up you v to at least 1.175- 1.2 range (if you temps are lower then 80c) and then try for 900

Yeah. ATM I'm running them both 1175mV 925/625 for ~800mh/s total. With a fanspeed of 70% and an open window, they run at 60'C and 64'C.
Sad thing is, I cannot find that golden ratio between heat and speed when the fan speed is a tad bit lower (60-65%) - either it has to run the same 1175mV voltage and use quite lower clocks (~900mhz) with higher temperature (79'C+), or use near-stock overclock (~845) with stock voltage, which would let me use it bellow 60% fan speed anyway. All I'm trying to figure out, why there's such a gap in fan speed performance, and why it crashes so weirdly when approaching it.

6950 + system hanging
by
warsmith
on 15/06/2011, 09:53:41 UTC
Hello guys.

I am mining with 2x unlocked XFX 6950's. Lately I've been trying to find an overclock that's stable with 63% fan speed (night-mode), but all of them are pretty much unusable, and the way it crashes the system is very weird - on a "bad" overclock firstly the cards heat up to working temperature (between 65-80 depending on mV and mhz) and then stay there for a while (from 1 to 60 minutes); then, suddenly temperature drops on a single card, and the hashrate halves. If I move my mouse, the computer hangs. If not - the second GPU continues to mine for a little longer (2-3min) before a total freeze.

What surprised me the most, however, was results I got from last night:  I let both of them run @ 1100mV(stock voltage) and with 900mhz core/625mhz mem and went to bed after 20-30mins of it being stable. It ran smoothly for an hour or so (according to BTCGuild logs) and crashed an hour later. I surely thought running it on stock voltage and such a low overclock (stock max is 840mhz core) will help the stability. I am sure it crashed the same way (single gpu halting for no reason, and then, even with 99% usage dropping temperature until a full system crash).




What could be the reason for such weird behaviour? What kind of overclocks do you have on your 6950s?

perhaps the admin should not allow new accounts until
the capacity issue is resolved? just a suggestion.

Yeah,  but I'd prefer those new servers getting online quicker.
It's annoying to see miners idle 10s out of each minute.

My gpu usage drops every 1-2minutes to 0% for a few seconds, and diablo miner says "ERROR: Can't connect to Bitcoin: connect timed out"
what's up?
