On April 16, CEX.IO on its official twitter account (https://twitter.com/cex_io) made an announcement: "CEX.IO ‏@cex_io  21h
Monthly Maintenance Cost for cloud-based GHS has been lowered to $0.26 per 1 GHS! Read more: http://blog.cex.io/?p=1616". Soon after the announcement, the linked article was removed from CEX.IO blog site, and the monthly maintenance cost per GHS is still $0.30 on the fee calculation page (https://cex.io/maintenance). Ironically total maintenance fee percentage went from 19% to 26% on the same day. Would someone with CEX.IO please explain what is going on here?

This last change from 19% to 26% is due to BTC price in the calculations. CEX was using 665, but it is now updated to current 503.

I just hope it is reviewed when BTC goes up, for this is now more than a quarter of everything mined and has resulted in more than 20% elevation from already high fees.

About electricity costs, no doubt it is time to review that as well...

Oh no! not another one! LOL! I hope this is just a temp thing. Maybe they are redoing their system. I know they are doing something to add more to the website. I had to relog in earlier and hit a terms of service agreement. feels like it will be back up soon.

Got same myself today, contacted support and let them know - was advised simply to change password.

I'll point out that it looks like a mass attack to them.

Received literally hundreds of emails in an hour with failed authentication attempts on CEX.IO, from different IPs. Bot-net obviously. Enabled two-factor authentication, but those emails every minute are really annoying. Can CEX admins ban those IPs with repeated failed attempts?

Same for me, it eventually stopped a few hours later

How come your username got known by the botnet owner?

I have no idea. It eventually stopped this morning at 2:35 (GMT), maybe it has something to do that I've emailed CEX support about the mail spam problem.

Still going on I got too many emails to count. This is getting annoying.  There should be a system to temp ip ban for small amounts of time 10-15 min

i suggested emails as logins for future, this would reduce mass attacks like this.

at the moment usernames are just harvested from say the chat box, if login was email based we could block the attackers straight away ourselves by changing account email

Warning just had about 40 attempts on someone trying to get into my cex account not sure if anyone else did either

same thing just happened to me, was actually coming here to post the warning. 40+ bad password attempts from many different IPs.  I immediately transferred whatever btc i have left in cex (not much <1 btc, i never keep anything online) to my cold storage.

anyone with cex io account please be careful, not sure what is going on with that website.

Some IPs that tried to log into my account

85.114.142.172
81.89.96.88
37.218.244.217
204.8.156.142
141.212.108.13
