Title: [WARNING] All protocols sites which are hosted on GoDaddy are having issue
Post by: Eternad on May 14, 2022, 06:53:59 AM
Guys don't use swap functions for sometime since GoDaddy hosting service is having an issue right now. The hacker manage to exploit GoDaddy and hijacked the domain and copied the codebase and in the process changed the swap parameters.

The confirmed affected swap protocols right now are the following:
Quickswap
Spiritswap
and more..


Don't swap anything at this moment or you will have risk on losing your funds. Trade safe and wait for the green light when the situation is already clear.
Spread this news to all your friends to protect them!

TIP: You can use https://ph.godaddy.com/whois to check whether the swap protocol is using Godaddy hosting service or not.

Well, that is the only way to go for those DEXs developers and users to take a look forward to decentralised front end solutions. It kind of limits the potency of decentralized finance or exchange if those platforms are still requiring centralized DNS/domain service.

I believe the thriving of the decentralized front end has been talked about in this board, but it really worth taking a look at platforms like Siacoin's Homescreen[1] or other service, which may offer the solutions.
