Would have been cheaper to pay them off. Huh

Give them the 10 BTC bounty so we can all go back to making money. Undecided

Are you really that ignorant to think that's how it works? They're spending money to ddos attack, if you start paying them why would they stop? Remind me to never hire you to be my hostage negotiator.

I am wandering what makes you think that they are spending money?
I do agree that paying ransom is not the solution but ....spending money....it sounds like you have internal info or what?

Computers cost money, electricity costs money, internet access costs money, people's time costs money. All of those things are required for ddos attacks, how did you think it was done?

The ransom has to be more than 10 BTC and if they pay the ransom, they are not even sure the attackers will stop.

Where is Chuck Norris when you need him? He would have just put the pings through the headphones and hunted them down.
