Sorry, I don't get it, the pool DOES have SSL: https://www.altpools.xyz/
Furthermore it wouldn't stop any website of being hacked. SSL purpose is to solely secure the communication between the user and the website. In the absence of SSL the only thing an attacker would be able to do is to steal data from a single client which he is interested in; specifically in the case of the our website the only sensitive information is the password if one registers. Besides, it wouldn't be an easy task, the attacker must have certain privileges, like access to the network the victim is connect to in order to sniff the packages and retrieve the data.

PS.: Oh, I see, there was a problem with redirection when reaching the website without 'https' in Chrome. Firefox was redirecting just fine. I just fixed it up a few moments ago, thanks for the heads up.
