Our provider (Hetzner) messed up it's routing and telephone support can not be reached. It looks like it's working again but I have no idea whether problems will return or not.

If I had a dollar for every time I have emailed that site and been ignored....................

If I had a dollar every time I emailed and got a response, I would have one dollar, because I only sent one email and got a response. Maybe you should cut back on your emailing.

Meanwhile Ms Lindemann gets lots of free advertising for her diet and nutrition business. I wonder if she accepts Bitcoin.  Cheesy

Looks like it's an identical repeat of this:

Provider (Hetzner) messed the routing up. I couldn't even reach the server and the support didn't understand the problem ("Ping works fine so your server is up").

The site you saw seems to be served from 176.9.79.205 while bitcoincharts.com is 176.9.79.196.

I've PM'd tcatm, since obvously emailing @bitcoincharts will be futile.

Management doesn't even has the professionalism to reply to emails.

Why post an email address if you are not going to reply?

Alternative in the meantime:

https://bitcoinaverage.com/

(I'm getting the same posted website)

If you seek live price charts you can use the Market dashboard of The Genesis Block:

And it's open-source, that's awesome. Wish there were more sites out there like bitcoincharts / bitcoinwisdom / bitcoinity that were open-source.

My guess would be that someone restored the parallels image on your-server.de that belongs on 176.9.79.205 (mail.pfaffender.net) to 176.9.79.196 (bitcoinwatch & bitcoincharts), or is routing the ip to the wrong vm. Dumb admin or such; the dns & domain info doesn't appear hijacked.

Both sites are hosted in Germany.

e-l-g.de             : 88.198.231.8 is from Germany(DE) in region Western Europe
bitcoincharts.com: 176.9.79.196 is from Germany(DE) in region Western Europe

Maybe they're hosted by the same provider and they fucked something up.

Yeah, that one exactly. And if I try to go directly to the charts, I just get a 404.

No, I get the same:



It's the website of a German diet advisor.

Why do I get an ad for a German company instead of the usual homepage?
