Is Coinotron still under DDOS or just gone?

[crazy_rabbit]

What happened to Coinotron? Are they STILL under DDOS? I can't believe the've just disappeared, but it's hard to imagine such a determined DDOS.

Hmm, this is very strange. There's the slim chance that coinotron took the unwithdrawn coins..

indeed, but on his thread he says that he sent out all the coins. I havent received any, and cant believe its gone
(not that i had much in there..)

I think that the reason of attack has no connection with NVC/PPC/LTC/whatever, and it's something personal between admin and attacker.

Tell us more about it

I have no idea. Maybe coinotron insulted someone, or other multi-altcoins pool preparing to launch.

I still maintain the thought that the attacks were to keep NVC price UP because of low avaliablity, but it doesn't matter. It seems like it was meant to go down in price no matter what.

You are free to maintain anything, but it has no connection with reality, because other pools weren't attacked. Even running at speeds ~ 300 mh/s.  

My version of personal issues is more similar to current situation.

Last contact with Coinotron on Feb 25. He sent out my NVC coins.

I'd like to get back in and get the rest of my coins though.

[Sturmvogel]

I emailed Coinotron admin today, asking for withdrawals, and received my NVC. He mentoned that pool is still under attack.

[nethead]

so we have to mail him to send out any coins we got there?

What is the Email contact?

They are under ddos attack since 2 weeks or so

I offered them a free server with our DDOS Protection, but they cannot change their DNS in week end apparently so we will continu our help monday only 
If monday the attack continu we will host them for free in order to help them to pass this bad period.

[coinotron]

Yes attack is still on. I don't know why they are attacking Coinotron.

I sent NVC coins to all miners that enabled automatic payouts and had more coins than withdrawal threshold. In other cases please PM me.

Thanks to neotrix on Monday/Tuesday we probably resume operation.

Good news. I hope that something like this will not happen again.

Sometimes I think that attacker was so clumsy that he lost control over his own botnet. 16 days is quite massive attack for such a small website like Coinotron

[ninjaboon]

No wonder my cgminer said the pool is dead. thanks for the updates.

A magical 60 LTC just arrived in my wallet. I'm guessing it was from Coinotron.

Thanks and look forward to your return!

Correct. As I said in main Coinotron thread, I sent PPC, LTC, TRC, FRC payouts to all users who had enabled auto payouts and have got balance > withdrawal threshold.
