Does anyone have a problem with logging in to MyEtherWallet?
After i enter password theres a 30 seconds coundown which starts all over again.
And also looks like theres a problem with SSL on this website, not secured connection error

Try to use MyCrypto and see If you're having the same issue. It's an improved version (fork) of Myetherwallet.

Are you sure you aren't on a Phishing site? Double check the URL and Cert, if you did go to one and entered your private key then immediately transfer all your tokens to a new wallet and never use that old wallet again.

MEW should always have the green lockpad in the top left, it should always be HTTPS.  If you ever see something like MEW or Binance without that, just DONT enter anything and move on.

Let us know if your coins are safe mate.

You NEED to do what is writen at the top of the MEW page to avoid getting phished.


Those extensions will warn you when you visit a famous fake website and let you know if you are in the right website. If you follow those instructions, you won't get scammed.

Today there are problems with the MEW, and also report the substitution of the dns-server and you are redirected to a phishing site. Maybe your wallet is already hacked

DO NOT LOGIN TO YOUR MYETHERWALLET ACCOUNT.

WE HAVE BEEN INFORMED OF A HACK ON MYETHERWALLET. PLEASE HOLD OFF ON BUYING TOKENS WITH MYETHERWALLET OR ACCESSING YOUR MYETHERWALLET FOR YOUR SAFETY.

Have a look the the official announcement of myetherwallet: https://twitter.com/myetherwallet/status/988787116015415296

If you are affected you will be redirected to another page. So always make sure to check the URL in the address slot of your browser.

Metamask is very useful specially when you enter a new site for the first time... there's a lot of green mark to show that it is the one you need to open.

Logging in to MEW has no problem at all if you open the right site, or maybe maintenance? But they will give you notice for it...perhaps it is really phishing one.

I just read this from mew team https://twitter.com/myetherwallet/status/988787116015415296 it's advisable not to trade mew for the time being.

The MEW DNS has been compromised so dont login to your MEW account especially if you notice that the site you are visiting doesnt have a https certificate!

Did you manage to save your coins mate? 

Yep, have all my coins safe.
But will transfer them to another wallet, cause not sure if my MEW was hacked.
Always check SSL certificates, guys and make sure youre on https
Also i used json file+password access, maybe this could stop them from robbing me

very strange phenomenon

Don't try to login on myetherwallet directly from the website because there is an high risk of lose your account access.
Use Metamask instead, you don't have to digit your private key!

This is bullsh*t... if you will check the link with security there is no danger.. i am using it by private key for long time and nothing happened.

You could be accessing a phishing site bud. Try to login after few hours and make sure you save it to your bookmarks.
