分布式拒绝服务（DDoS）攻击为这些犯罪分子提供了一个简单的选择，可以破坏这些在线平台的业务。我们使用事件分析来分析DDoS攻击对加密货币交易所的经济影响。我们的贡献有四个方面：首先，我们开发了一个估计模型，利用行为金融学的思想来预测基于价格变化的加密货币交易量。其次，我们进行了事件分析，以评估在17种不同的情况下，DDoS攻击是否对交易所交易量产生影响。第三，我们发现，在13种情况下，由于DDoS攻击造成的负面影响在同一天内被交易所恢复。最后，我们评估每小时的交易数据，以显示为什么在大多数情况下，交易量在一天内恢复。
Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks provide an easy option for these criminals to disrupt the business of these online platforms. We analyse the economic impact of DDoS attacks on a crypto-currency exchange using event analysis. Our contributions are fourfold: Firstly, we develop an estimation model utilising ideas from behavioural finance to predict volume of crypto-currency traded on the basis of changes in price. Secondly, we perform an event analysis to evaluate whether there is an impact of a DDoS attack on the volume traded on the exchange in 17 different cases. Thirdly, we find that in 13 cases the negative impact due to a DDoS attack is recovered within the same day by the exchange. Finally, we evaluate hourly trade data to show why in most cases the volume traded recovers within a single day.
