These DDOS attacks in the cryptocurrency community really start to piss me off, god damn shitkids hiding in cellars messing shit up for everyone else.

Yeah me too. I dont know how are those ppl getting any advantage of a pool shutdown. Really annoying.

Nodes go offline, less network hashing power = lower difficulty = more sexcoins.

But it aint just cryptocoins that the issue, its almost everywhere these days, most of them just for obscure reasons along the lines of disliking whatever some site stands for. In my opinion it is an attack on freedom of speech and it suprises me that with all the technology today there isn't better protection against such attacks from ISP side of things.

Yeah but does it worth to arrange (and / or pay) a DDoS attack for a coin like this? And yes, ISPs should somehow solve situations like this But it seems they cant even tell on which port(s) was the attack done...
