Goldin Auctions Down?

[Goldin Auctions]

If you log into your account, you will see results from session 1 until 6pm EDT at which point you will see a preview of session 2
If you login and go to “ my account” page and “ select auction” you can drag down and see your bids in session 2 or session 3
If you have consigned you can see ONLY your items in the current session.
We do not like that this has been done, and it’s a pain in the ass, but the steps are in place so traffic is mitigated on the site and when the auction is done, We and all our users will be off the platform and never deal with it again. However, if you look at the results and number of bids and prices realized in session 1, it seems the people that wanted to bid have managed to bid. Thank you for bearing with us .

Im not sure what is considered high traffic for an AH. Is there a chance your platform was bombarded by BOTs most likely originating from outside the Country?

We confirmed there was a cyber attack last night that was caught and stopped. It did slow system down around 920. Precautions put in place, was on phone myself with server company and cyber security. Not discussing more at this time, but someone out there definitely wanted to mess with this auction.
