MTGox vs mysterious Russia

[cypherdoc]

why am i seeing mtgox recent trades on bitcoincharts.com on its 1 min interval?

Because it [almost] works. I still block when loadavg goes too high, but it somehow works.

so some ppl r getting into your site while most others, like me, cannot?

Are you accessing from a public network or is your ip compromised?

[cypherdoc]

everythings good in my acct so i'm happy

[forgotmypassword6x]

seems like this is a problem we'll all face.  would you mind posting what you're doing, provided it won't help btcex evade?

Can you post the list of IP so those of us who run other bitcoin-related websites can block them?

It's disappointing to know people like this have already found our community; particularly so when I use AWS and get charged per-usage

For info ddos has stopped.

I will still move activity to a more proofed server once I find one that fits all the requirements.

[LZ]

The end result will BENEFIT MtGox AND us all.

Yeah, I think so too. I hope that we all will benefit even from that bad event.

[SmokeTooMuch]

Seems like we really need a decentralized exchange.

MagicalTux, are you sure it was a DDOS? Your site was featured on the main page of hacker news for half a day, that means A LOT of traffic:

http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2501006

Usually it's called "slashdotting": http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slashdot_effect

When bitcoin.org is featured on the HN, it's always down

MagicalTux runs an ISP, and is well aware of what slashdotting is.

On IRC, MagicalTux described the type of requests made and it was clearly a DDoS (SYN flood etc).  The requests also originated overwhelmingly from Russian and Vietnamese Ips.
