      I just wanted to point out that flound was kind enough to manually swing multipool to FTC giving us an extra 400mh/s to combat these attacks. Thanks flound!

        They can only act now, in the crypto-currency start up / gpu phase. Bitcoin and Litecoin have surpassed the hash rate level a single entity might amass to overpower the network.

        I like the idea of auto checkpoints, done correctly, it will make our network secure.

            DDOS? They can just move then. If I kneecap them they are pretty stationary.

                We moved on there automatically, actually… But some of my miners were asking me to disable it. I have offered to pay out any blocks that are orphaned while we’re on FTC to limit their risk.

                    The attack may have switched to Phenixcoin. I was just checking the current hash figures…

                      PXC just came through a highly profitable phase. Maybe just have been flash miners.

                        Cut off their fingers instead and then they can’t type. I don’t care if they walk around.

                              Looks like difficulty is about to drop significantly in another 16 blocks, should bring some more miners in again and buy us some breathing space.

                              I agree that we need the Advanced Checkpointing though, and I’m glad Bush is working on getting this out there.

                                    I’ve spoke to different people over there, I’m waiting to hear back from Bush myself. I just jumped on and based information on to Jeester.

                                          The cryptocurrency prejudice has to stop.

                                          But, the (cryptocoin) public’s attitude towards attacks has to change before the attacks will stop.

                                          Many see these “[b]attacks[/b]” as “deserved” and “good”.
                                          We need to start with the yute’s and educate them at an early age that attacking cryptocoins is wrong.

                                          Stop coinism!

                                          ;)
