Today for some reason everything is down. Kind of like what happened last week with the entire internet being down with the DNS attacks. Today I think it has to do with the ZCASH launch. Bitcointalk was down earlier today also.

Yep, seems like a DNS issue - probelms on bitcoin talk, yobit, SD and others - there is obviously some effort buy criminals to buy or dump some coins without anybody else being able to report it or access the exchanges.

I have no idea why they are doing it. I don't think they benefit anyway by hacking Bitcointalk. And there is also alot of liquidity right now to sell Bitcoin. However it looks like it might go back to yearly highs.

There must be some logic behind the attacks - Maybe they are trying to stop people from creating more liquidity before they pump - or planning to dump whilst people can't access all exchanges - or working with arbitrage on sites which are DNS blocked. Either way, the I've noticed that the number of people posting on here has dropped a bit since the attacks.

Yes especially the Gamblin topics are much less active. Most likely people try accessing the website and its very slow to load and they just give up and move on to some other forum. However I don't see how anyone would benefit from doing this.

hard to see any logic or anyone benefiting from this
