Post by: tygarbyte on March 03, 2014, 09:14:55 AM What do the pools use to prevent it and why is that a bigger deal for pool sites then regular websites? not much, ban ip making too many request load balance the front end server why ? when maxcoin was launched all the major public pool were ddos, some more so that they have to drop support for that particular coin. ( eg ypool ) then the miners in the private pools get all the coins cause they have all the hashrate and get all the coins. |
