This is just a thought and speculation on the ddos attacks? what is the possibility of a company like IPUUTIZATIONSERVICES is behind it either knowingly or unknowingly?most likely knowingly.......
heres a few links on them
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/ipu-services-we-pay-for-idle-process0r-cycles-uhh-bs-surely-491947https://rstforums.com/forum/83174-ipuservices-com-big-scam.rst The owner of the company has been seen posting around advertising botnets for sale with his cpu service..... just do some googling and you'll see and find that this company is a complete SCAM and is very non forward with what they are actually doing with the processing power?only that people pay for whatever they wish to do with it?Whatever that might be?I would think there is a high probability they are using it for ddos attacks?The owner has been long suspected of using sources to mine BTC and the owner has long vehemently denied this and trashes bitcoin whenever possible.The owner has been found quoted as saying and shopping around some hack forums "I have thousands of computers with all completely separate IP'S at my disposal a LEGAL BOTNET to use at yours and mine disposal however you wish for MONEY and that's how they get paid" and this is what makes me think of them as a possibility is a email sent out to all users.
I used the site in hopes of renting cpu for money until after using it my cpu and motherboard completely fried from something I'm pretty sure came from using their software and them using my cpu as I have never in my life seen anyone have a cpu fry and have worked in computer repair for over a decade and have yet to see someone's cpu fry and after learning of botnet activity I never used the service again .Of course this isn't proof of such activity?But I found it quite odd for a company that supposedly has no interest in Bitcoin to send out a email like this and have such hatred to something they supposedly have nothing to do with?But come to find out they also own a COMPETING payment processor against BITCOIn! They own a company also Anon a pay and its in their best interest that Bitcoin fails!There is a motive and also the computer power to do it as they have tens of thousands of users to draw from renting peoples cpu and computers and going way out of their way to spread Fud.... this was a email that was sent out to all customers "TITLED"
2 DAYS LEFT- Division-LLC Accounts/IPU Services PAYOUTS / Bitcoin Is Dead
and this is an excerpt from the email sent the misspellings are from email lol This is of course just speculation but this is what makes me think of this possibility?A botnet service that hates bitcoin what are the odds? when looked at for a motive it's there and a suspect to consider ? There are of course many other possibilities and many motives out there the list of possibilities is long and tedious I'm sure so this just might be a shot in the dark but just a thought and idea where maybe too consider worth looking into as a strong suspect somewhere for disruption for sure causing disruption somewhere in bitcoinland if not here? this is an excerpt from a email......
paysBitCoin / CrytoCoin Completely Self-Destruct
With the total collapse of MtGox, the largest trader in Bitcoin, it is all done except for the shouting; Crypto-Currency is dead.
Anyone who attempted to use BTC in the past as any type of currency already knew is was completely useless as a means of trade; worth $50 today, $1200 tomorrow.
Good Riddance. Now if all the smaller outlets would simply do the right thing and realize that they are now meaningless, and they should lay down and die.
Needless to say, IPU Services will not accept any form of Crypto Currency.
Just some food for thought they definitely look suspect at the very least..........
