Its likely an effect of the DDOS, site is on cloudflare so any outages should be very brief.

They shouldn't have to deal with a ddos attack.  It's a shame that someone threatened bitmain at all.  I was very upset at how they handled their price increase this week, but a ddos attack is ridiculous. I think they have handled that perfectly!

I applaud them for not caving in to the ransom.

I agree. Never cave in to them. The ddostards should concentrate their computing efforts on mining cryptocurrency.

You mean their 24 hours of hired botnet capacity? Tongue Its rented for a cost and they're just hoping they can ransom more than that cost.

Is it the same group/user who attacked nicehash/westhash last week and ghash just before ?
