I don't see any reason why BCX should attack Poloniex. The Poloniex attack might have been a smart move by the Monero team. In this way, they can scare BCX, any law intervention would put BCX on the suspect list. He may cool down a little and give MEW more time to figure something out.
I personally conclude MEW have found a hole in their system, and are trying to buy time to implement a fix, or the worst is the hole is not fixable, and they are trying to build evidence in case of the attack and reduce BCX's incentive to launch the attack.
this is ridiculous now the Monero team is behind the attack on Polo?
Hi BCX socket-puppet acc.
it was the same nick as before, it was him, and he knew it was trouble doing that, thats why he denied here.
I just can't find why an attack on a cryptocurrency's blockchain should precede with a DDoS attack on an exchange. Seems weird. Maybe there is a third person involved, trying to profit and buy cheap.
