Can not go to BTC-e .com on 26/7/2017- the digital currency trading platform . BTC-e started in July 2011, handling just a few coin pairs, including Bitcoin/U. S. dollar and I0Coin to Bitcoin. By October 2011, they supported many different currency pairs, including Litecoin to dollars, Bitcoin to rubles and RuCoin to rubles
On July 31, 2012, BTC-e had their Liberty Reserve API Key compromised, the attacker injected thousands of fake U. S. dollars into the site and used it to disrupt the markets. A large number of Bitcoins were stolen during the attack, some sources estimate the equivalent of $35,000 were taken in Bitcoins. The attackers are still unknown, although BTC-e recovered without taking coins from their users.[citation needed]
During 2013 and 2014, BTC-e had many outages related to Distributed Denial of Service attacks.They later began using the reverse proxy service CloudFlare to help mitigate these attacks, reducing downtime for the exchange.
