Hi
Im still under DDoS under 30k+ input connections. It is almost controlled but maybe some restarts be expected.
In aprox 1hour +/- it will be fully operational.
Thanks
PD: The ip it's changed, reping xpoolx.com users who have problem with dns redirect.

I can't connect to either pool. I think I'll have to try setting up a stratum server.

Hi Can you send me the error you are getting and your ip address? Thanks |

What we really need now I believe is someone who can modify dave andersons ric miner to solo mine into the wallet with fallback capability. In the case that the pools go down the miner should be able to attempt to connect to other pools if available, if not connect to local wallet to solo mine. In this case attacks on the pools become redundant as the hash power stays on the network.
yes, I started to work in this direction but I never finished it. I'll get into it. Mine pool has been attacked, if not out of the SOLO tool, riecoin may die. Can modify the wallet program, so he directly supports Stratum protocol. |

Ypool is under ddos again also. |

The easy way out would be to rely on services like CloudFlare although there are additional costs for administrators of pools |

Basic CloudFlare is free and quite enough for DDoS protection as far as websites go (http), but CloudFlare cannot protect the stratum protocol... |

cloudflare works as a cache, so it doesn't work for attacks that target the mining protocols, either stratum or xpt. a proxy may work for tcp syn flood attacks, but if they attack the servers with "real" connections, it's harder to defend. |

Can modify the wallet program, so he directly supports Stratum protocol.
Does anybody know of a coin that has stratum directly in the daemon? I could merge it into RIC if I found one. Otherwise, implementing getwork or gbt in the miners would be faster |

So go for getwork, or write a XPT to Getwork proxy in Python for example (which should be even easier to implement). |

Jh00 did write some time ago a stratum to xpt proxy for ypool, but it had some bugs and hasn't been used for some time and only supports scrypt. Not sure if its any help but heres a link to the github https://github.com/jh000/xptProxy |

I have lost some of the confirmed balance. Also disappeared the transaction to 2015-12-16. The balance will be restored? |

There has been a sharp rise in orphans lately (with an all time high of 103 orphans on december 13th) https://chainz.cryptoid.info/ric/#!extraction So the DDOS situations is having an effect on the blockchain beyond just lack of blocks, at some point exchanges are likely to raise the number of required confirmations, so some solo-mining options in the wallet would be welcome. |

I'm setting up a Stratum Pool with 0% Fee. It 's still in beta testing but will soon be made available and protected from various types of attacks.
Updates will be communicated.
