Are the DDoS connections establishing, or is this just a script kiddie syn-flood? (sounds like you have too much traffic for syn-cookies) If they are establishing and sending useless requests- can you estimate number of hosts participating? Depending on the bot being used, redirecting known-bad connections to a tarpit can help. I've pointed bots to tarpits, and some go quiet after all of their threads are told to "shut up and wait".  |
I see the value of Bitcoin, so I don't worry about the price...

Just to clarify a common question: If you have been given the semi-private DNS information, you do not need to switch back at any time. The semi-private servers will *not* go down once the attacks are completely over. Staying on the semi-private DNS may end up keeping you online next time an attack hits. It's not a guarantee, but it has worked quiet well for most users so far.

have you been in contact with the FBI about this attack? I'm thinking that it couldn't hurt. You are a US business, your business is being intentionaly disrupted by outside forces. They should be made aware of the situation if nothing else.

Isn't the fbi shut down? And besides they probably won't do anything and defently due to the fact this is bitcoin we are talking about. But who knows.

That's more like asking them to come check you out as well. FBI is out of business but will gladly use an escape goat to secure some jobs, might as well be a bitcoin pool.

Oh stop you guys, running a pool isn't illegal, mining isn't illegal, and most certainly bitcoin isn't illegal. I forgot about the shutdown. hmmm is it a good time to be a criminal? Even if they did nothing, it couldn't hurt. Who knows, it might be a key piece to a puzzle that they are already working on. Enough Foil Hat stuff.  |

If you're still having issues getting connected, please let me know by PM or email. Every testing machine I have has been working quite well for about 12 hours. The only hiccups should've been when some old proxies were closed and the new EU servers brought up.

Only the last 11 shifts have been under expectation, hardly "luck sucks". |

Difficulty went up. It only takes 16 to be above neutral at this difficulty+value of N. |

And it looks like most miners are back on board now. |

That's a generic cloudflare-based error, probably already fixed by the time I woke up. |
