It is a common myth that Bitcoin is ruled by a majority of miners. This is not true. Bitcoin miners "vote" on the ordering of transactions, but that's all they do. They can't vote to change the network rules.

If it is a DDOS again it is probably due to the high price of LTC than continued NVC support. NVC came crashing down at the same time that Khaos changed his Khore pool to payout at 120 confirmations rather than 520.

Then again last time this happened because of LTC, litecoinpool was DDOS attacked as well so maybe it is something else.

It happened before when the BTC block reward halved. The LTC hashrate and price went up as miners moved over from BTC. Then litecoinpool and BTC-e was hit by a week long DDOS after which the extra interest that LTC had gained was lost and some more. It will not be surprising if this happens again, with the rise of ASICs, sending BTC miners venturing away from BTC to other potentially greener pastures like LTC.

Yes it make me septical too... Additionnaly as owner of koddos.com I know the capacity of actual hosting cloudfare btc-e use and let say that not easy to put down for an attacker, even if possible your analyse seem more signifiant.

Btw a new alternative to btc-e.com coming soon : https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=149128.0

Crypto-trade.com : https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=149458.0
https://koddos.com and http://kovpslayer.com.  "Bitcointalkdiscount" to get 10% discount recurring.

Preparing actually the contract, I will announce it today in securities section and will then start on btct.co and litecoinglobal in next days. Other plateform could be used for other batches in BTC ( will be sold in 5 batch of 10%, total 50% maximum)

Are you saying that there are individuals out there masterminding these DDOS attacks to keep away new adopters of Litecoin?  That's an interesting conspiracy theory, I wonder if the new exchange that is coming out from Neo is truly DDOS proof. Smiley
