Did they wait for you to go to sleep? Seems the pool and frontends are down.

More threats coming in, nothing hitting yet.  Obviously not very involved in Bitcoin.  They seem to think pools make 10x more profit than they actually do.  Still stressing that any miners on BTC Guild should have multiple backup pools setup just in case.

haha yea, that was the first thought that came to mind. They do realize you make a whopping 2.5BTC per mined block right? So it is really the users they should be trying to ransom..

I would not be that certain.

Say 2 hours for a block then 12 blocks a day then 10 950

BTC a year so at current rates of $6 this dude pockets a NEAT $ 65 700 yearly for doing absolutely nothing except a few maintenace tasks - hosting costs and sitting on his bum all day.

Screw the DDOS government idiots but I would not be worried about eleuthria making a killing off miners ...

Should check your math against historical data. My income depends on luck. Last month was a LOSS of 672 BTC. Meaning after server costs I lost a total of over 4,500 USD at current rates.  Prior months keep it from being too bad, but this pool doesn't make anywhere near what you would think since I eat all luck.

Orphans, software glitches, and plain old luck stop the pool from being able to replace a day job. The income is random and not nearly enough to keep me from working.

19:53 <   Eleuthria@> "The pool server and website is coming back online.  If your miners can't connect, restarting may fix it (the DNS changed).  Posting on behalf of Eleuthria since he is not able to properly post from his phone at this time.

"Servers are recovering from DDoS.  If your miners can't connect, try restarting them to update your DNS cache."

Haha now I'm not mining again.  If I didn't know better I'd swear that whoever is perpetrating this is reading the forum and seeing my tips.

I'll shut up now.


LOL...

 Could be the pool owner making changes....

Also, The longer they do it, The higher the odds of them profiting.
Shh, I wanna see them burn.

Whitelists DO NOT WORK because the bad connections will still hit your server before they get turned down.

Who says they have to reach your RPC mining server?
Would Layer-7 switch help?

Nobody should give these scrpt kiddies a single fucking cent, If they think they can profit off of it, They'll continue doing it.

... I dont want any nmc ...
So just create an account at Vircurex and sell off your NMC for BTC there.

They'll send email notifications when your coins arrive, and get traded, so once you have your account created, grab your NMC deposit addy from there, and set BTCGuild up to auto-payout to that addy.

Then, when the NMC payout happens, and Vircurex sends you the email about your deposit, just sell for BTC, and voila! Bonus BTC! Smiley

edit: oh, and as for the DDoS threats, feel free to add my BTC P2Pool node (listed below) as a backup pool if any of you like. Use a BTC address as your username to get your payouts generated directly into your wallet, any password. Works same as solo mining, but based on PPLNS. Can't have too many backups Cheesy
Thanks!, I intended on using my nmc as my "spare money to give tips".

How does an upstream filter differentiate between good work and ddos spam, when it's all being directed at the same port?

source ip + whitelist from downstream db

balance upstream filters

Maybe redirect your IP to the US DOD website for a while. Maybe that might help. Lol
