Hi,

As you have seen we've been under massive DDoS attacks in the past days. Once again, these are classical extortion DDoS attacks. We are able to mitigate DDoS by network filtering, however, protection and filtering also blocks some good traffic (miners), unfortunately. Attacker is probably attacking by bots. We have gathered some useful data and reported attacker to FIRST (http://www.first.org/) and TF-CSIRT (http://www.terena.org/activities/tf-csirt/). We are not negotiating with attackers and hopefully they will at least have a restless and disturbed sleep while the security incident groups are trying to identify them. If anybody has any info about these attackers (they are also attacking other pools) we will reward any useful information.

Thank you for understanding and thank you for using our service!

Your mining server is under DDoS attack.



Pay me 1 BTC and I will stop and you are free for lifetime of your site.





My btc address: 16JEzTkXGeCFPrCoPo9hnSVZWLHMau31fg



DO NOT REPLY! I can't receive your emails. Pay me and I will know it's you.





If you ignore me, and I don't receive your payment within 2 hours, price to stop will increase to 2 BTC and will increase for 1 BTC for every day of delay/attack.

I think westhash might be getting hit on the sha256 port again, but not as bad as earlier.

Westhash back up as well.

Looks like the SHA256 server took a pretty good hammering from 14:49 to 16:34 UTC according to my charts. Scrypt looks like it wasn't hit.

my rigs start to switch to nicehash

Why? when nicehash is still down and west hash at least have their front end up.

This is crap lol

How do you rent a single order and end up with a dozen invisible orders?

'cause nicehash works again ....

Looks like all of my rigs are hashing at full speed now. The main westhash page is still down for me though.

Just tried to place an order on west hash..
It lagged out and next thing I know I have an empty wallet.. The thing sucked my whole balance out in 0.01btc orders.

Okay, that's cool.. except I can't see the orders appearing anywhere..

They are logged as transactions under my wallet, yet that's the only reason I even know wtf happened to my wallets balance.

Not impressed.

Is there any chance to get the Titan (firmware 1.05) working at Nicehash without tons of rejects?

KnC haS to improve their firmware for much better flushwork handling ... Until they fix this basically no multipool or altcoin pool can't work efficiently (multipools that are currently somehow working are separating work and actually redirects Titans to only LTC mining behind the scenes) ... See also this: http://forum.kncminer.com/forum/main-category/main-forum/64472-nicehash-full-support

Thank you for explaining!
