That's still a ddos - low end servers just dos with less d and less intent. It does look like a slash dotted hug of death rather than full on bot farm attack.
There is a constant flow of transactions that keep happening every couple minutes. There are currently 29614 token holders. My guess is in 5 hours it will hit 31k - for the 31TB of data. This means somehow each token holder has access to 1GB of data. I am scratching my head how this can be.
Each account has quite a few tokens. Perhaps each token has a bit of data associated. I am not fully aware of the etherium mechanics.
Link to the site
Looks like the site is already being DDOSed (or maybe Patriots are ddosing it themselves with all their curiosity!)
It loaded for me. It may not be a DDOS, it just might be a wordpress site on a low end server.
