(We're still ddos'ing other pools)
try.
and the next 30min after ... all pools migrate automaticly to P2Pool isolate network and DDoS protected.
any actual P2Pool nodes can achieve 8 connexion per sec. (at minimal level) and you have 2400 available connexion for miner in real time now (300 nodes).
you can't win.
security measure of pools are to automaticly switch to P2Pool.
that why, we (P2Pool) have regulary +500Th/s but only 30 mins to test the security measures.
I don't know much about P2Pools, I'll check it.
Can you address these?
- Public pools make up much less than 95% of the mining power.
- Difficulty and block is irrelevant. Why do you bring them up?
- If you shut down 95% and you have 6%, blocks will take 90 minutes each. Your DDOS will have to be maintained for a long time in order to successfully double spend.
* Yes I know, according to blockchain.info/pools it's 78% percent of the current hash.
** Actually it's quite relevant. We want to lower cost of attack. If we want to find blocks faster than others with less asics then we need lower diff. Also we need to target the block which is the future diff retargeting block.
*** It's a probabilty actually. 20x lower diff may equal up to 200 minutes. But if we're lucky enough, we can achieve that.
Big farms make direct stratum connections to their own pools through private networks. You can't DDoS these.
Attacker needs to find their connection to the outer network. They should use some ip addresses to broadcast block candidates. So it really doesn't matter their inner connection.
