Yes, Jered did post in the main forum on this. We did get several DDOS attacks in a row. Its now been over 48 hours without an issue/attack so it seems the perps have left.
Kinda makes one wonder who did Tradehill piss off and how did they do it? Or maybe the DDOS was just an artifact of a general strategy...it sounds like Mt. Gox was hammered pretty hard too. These things are kinda fun to muse about.
Again, Tradehill, I would hope that the cost savings in DDOS mitigation investment are eventually passed down to your customers in some tangible way. Although we don't (necessarily) lose the kinds of money you guys do we are still inconvenienced by the disruptions.
