Yeah i trust them with my 0.3 btc. Let's see how much BTC i have left in a few months on there. It will either double or disappear in 70 days.

I think it's worth the risk, and even if i lose the 0.3 btc, i have a lot more anyway.

I mean you really need to take off your pink glasses.

There is no sane CEO/website owner/business owner in the world who would suffer this kind of malfunction and skip notifying his clients about it just being malfunction to be fixed.
Why? Cause he knows if he does not do that 99% of his clients s going to withdraw and run the moment he gets his website back online thus effectively destroying his business.

So during this 24 hours any normal webmaster would post a note, send a group email, anything. Do we have something? No. Accept it. They run.

Just curious CrazyIvan... How much do you have invested?

Also, I bank with JP Morgan Chase. Pretty large company I'd say compared to BTC-Arbs. They commonly update their website and disconnect services from time to time to do so. I have never received an email from them, just a notification when visiting the site. Sometimes things go wrong, and they are down longer than expected without that instant notification. By your logic they are probably just scamming everyone and I should pull my funds from them too right?




OK, let it be your way. I don't have much invested, made my last withdrawal 4 days ago so I ll live.

I agree with you that they have been piss poor communicators in this.

I am a Computer Scientist with pretty a pretty good resume of system administration and network management.  I've been all over that server today and believe it to be secure. I have posted a lot of my thoughts earlier in the thread.

I don't think someone who wanted to abscond with the funds would even bother taking the site down.  Why do that when you could continue to milk it for an extended period?  Think about Mt.GOX, they stole A LOT of BTC by milking the system over more than a year.  Why just shutdown (actually break) the web site and leave all the other services running?  Also consider the recent extended outage at CoinEx.  That one looked bad for the first couple of days.

This looks a lot like a case of server admin fat fingers and business manager failure to communicate.

At this point unless someone knows how to contact the admin and get some information we will just have to wait.

and hope...

http://ns.myip.ms/info/whois/111.90.150.219  <= Located in Malaysia???
Was being reported earlier as being located in a Hostgator data center in Utah.
IIRC btc-arbs.com's offices were supposedly in the EU somewhere.
The server was known to be in Malaysia since day one. The site claimed they have their office in Switzerland (which is NOT in the EU) but this has been repeatedly deemed unlikely.
Thank you for that.

Ah, good news.  That server is *NOT* vulnerable to the Heartbleed attack.

What are you talking about?Huh? Who cares about Heartbleed at this point. It is obvious they run with our BTC, wake up people.

There is no evidence for what you suggest.

Why is it so obvious to you? It must be great to live in your world where absolutely nothing can go wrong with servers or providers. That hardware lasts forever, power is always flowing, attacks never occur. I mean seriously it hasn't even been 24 hours. No communication sucks, but it has been that way since any of us invested.

I know they have some trouble days before for the heartbleed issue, and make security upgrade. In my case they took my money back into my account twice. At this point I really dont know if they are scam or not. I hope not. The server is there, and it is like they having so much software/configuration trouble for the two ticket I been able to read.

Apparently the wrappers are preventing attacks from filtered addresses.  So that is good.  Still wish the owners were not so slow to get us some information.

The version number reported is said to be vulnerable but if SSLLabs test shows it is not, it is not.

The IP which DNS returns for btc-arbs.com is 111.90.150.219.

http://ns.myip.ms/info/whois/111.90.150.219  <= Located in Malaysia???

Was being reported earlier as being located in a Hostgator data center in Utah.

IIRC btc-arbs.com's offices were supposedly in the EU somewhere.

The original problem yesterday was DNS issues.  Does anyone have an old IP address for btc-arbs.com?  Or can someone confirm they were at this same address a couple of days ago?

That web site is running OpenSSL 1.0.1e.  That version is subject to the Heartbleed vulnerability.

*A vulnerability in OpenSSL has been recently announced.  Specifically, the (1) TLS and (2) DTLS implementations in OpenSSL 1.0.1 before 1.0.1g do not properly handle Heartbeat Extension packets, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information from process memory via crafted packets that trigger a buffer over-read, as demonstrated by reading private keys, related to d1_both.c and t1_lib.c, aka the Heartbleed bug.*

This ^^^^^^ has since been disproved.  The site is NOT vulnerable.
