With help from rico666 and POCC group, this script will allow you to easily manage ip bans for burstcoin pools, to help actively defend against ddos
Comes preconfigured with troublesome addresses. Add more by editing the IP.blocked file run sh block.sh to add custom ips and all aws ips
If your IP is listed, then you were reported as sending too many nonce submissions to a pool. If you are a legit miner this may be the result of a poorly configured miner and you should check with your pool operator. If they are satisfied that you are a legit miner and have fixed your issues, they can remove you from their own ban list directly, and contact me to remove them from the list through discord https://discord.gg/UeqDz6p
Pool owners can do a pull request to edit the IP.blocked file directly to allow everyone to be protected
