Title: BIPS is still down
Post by: TookDk on November 19, 2013, 06:02:01 PM
I have followed the thread:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=252308.msg3639165#msg3639165

However as Newbee I am not allowed to post there, I don't know if you can really call me newbee, I have done research on the topic (bitcoin) as a master student and wrote a couple scientific paper on the subject information security / bitcoin, beside I have build a FPGA miner as a hobby project (including the HDL design)... anyway I understand and respect that bitcointalk.org has the newbee politic.

Back to the topic:
I can understand that BIPS has been under a massive DDoS attack, and I have heard that their server has been completely wiped out.
Do anybody have more information beside what you can read in the thread posted?
Like many other, I am starting to be a bit worried - 4 days of down-time, that is more than what you can normally expect (imo). 
The big question: is anybody going to have loss of BTC?
