I noticed the Steemit website wasn't working since yesterday night till early this morning, and I thought it was just on my end but my sister was having the problem.
At first I thought it's another hard fork but I couldn't find any update using busy.org and partiko app. So I decided to wait for a little bit and cleared my browsing history and rebooted my pc, nothing happened.
I kept browsing on my partiko phone and I read @exyle's post that there was an attack!
I think it was around 11 in the morning today, when Steemit website was up and running again.
Could the attack also be the reason as to why Steem price dropped a lot last night?
Although Bitcoin price went down, it came back up again and also the other coins but Steem hasn't recovered yet.
Or could it be just people took advantage of the quick rise and profit?
Anyways, it doesn't matter for me because I am not
looking forward in cashing out any time soon. Am going to buy more Steem once I sold some of my used PS4 games and my magic the gathering cards.👌
Hi,
sure, some people cashed out and the attack had some influence as well...
I only wait until Bitcoin is really pushing up, steem will explode..
All in all I think it could be a very good year.
Have a nice evening
Tom

SteemIt isn't Steem, even if some people cashed out it will continue to grow rapidly ! :-)
However, the influence of Bitcoin on the whole cryptosphere tends to reduce, each project have more independance and its own community, its own strategy to globaly open itself to the world.
PoW is obsolete and I hope it's just a seed in what will become our future world :D

I agree completely, there are several reasons converging here to make steem dip.
No prob, just keep swimming.

No, I don't think so.
Steem is much bigger than just Steemit site. API nodes, thus wallets, exchanges, other frontends such as busy, steempeak, esteem, partiko, and games like steemmonsters were working fine.
Those investors who knows that, shouldn't care about some temporary issues with one site, on the other hand those investors who doesn't know that, probably haven't noticed any DDoS attacks ;-)

Why do websites get an attack like this? Even FB and Instagram was attacked the couple of days ago.

Human nature I guess. Spammers and all kind of abusers have issues and they can't see other ways for solving them.
Sometimes, however, it's not a DDoS attack. For example latest outage of Facebook services including Instragram and WhatsApp, was a configuration error, not an attack.

Possibly ... see here https://steemit.com/steemit/@steemitblog/intermittent-outages-due-to-ddos
I'm always surprised that Steemian's don't seem to know about alternatives to access the STEEM blockchain like busy.org or eSteemsurfer. During the STEEMIT outages they worked just fine.

The writer said she tries Busy, so she did know it was working.
