Exco.in

We are in the process of preparing our infrastructure to relaunch the new Excoin trading platform.

I apologize for the lack of updates, we are working with our datacenter to find a solution. We will be back up and running soon.

We will continue working until we have a resolution, we apologize for the unexpected downtime.

We are trying to determine how our addresses are being determined by the attacker. We are still working on ways to prevent this attack.

We have been able to bring the site online for short periods of time but our IP addresses are immediately bombarded with UDP traffic.

Our backend servers are now under attack from the same attacker DD4BC, we are working hard on a resolution.

@BlackcoinGritt You can always get in contact with us at support _at_ exco.in

@BlackcoinGritt Yes, once I have a free moment I will download it. Please email me your uid.

Attacks have started again, this time it is no longer completely disabling access to our site. We are hard at work to ensure it stays stable

@BlackcoinGritt Unfortunately during this DDOS attack he has been taking some time off to get over pneumonia, let me know if I can help.

We are back online, our live API is still being worked on. We should have everything working smoothly shortly.

The DDOS commences, we aware of the timeouts and we are working to the defend the remaining surface used to attack and the disable the site.

@BlackcoinGritt Blackwave Labs is always happy to help provide guidance on preventing/mitigating DDOS attacks if/when it happens again.

@BlackcoinGritt Apparently this extortionist has been targeting Bitcoin Exchanges and others so it is possible.

#Excoin is back online! Thank you for your patience through the process.

If you have any questions please contact us using our support email while our ticket system is offline.

We are taking our time so when we return online we will be ready to better defend against the DDOS attack. Thank you for your patience.

All of our servers are online and accessible to us with the exception of the internet facing web client.

We were unwilling to give into the extortion demands and the attack commenced. We are working hard to bring the platform back online.

To give our community an idea of what we are dealing with, we have received a letter from DD4BC before the attack: http://bit.ly/1qBpaA9
