Etherdelta has bn hacked

[Phil419She]

Is this really true?. So what has been done by the etherdelta management about this.  Im actually on the verge of selling some coins there worth something.  But this is a dangerous news,  I think Ill hold a bit till this is all clear.

[Gategold]

It's interesting, is it connected with the fact that the entrance and display of rates on the stock exchange has been difficult for the last few days?

I hope this problem will be fixed soon, I hope google will protect cryptocurrency users by block any fake website. It really a big prpblem, the law enforcement must can trace it because all transactions is recorded.

now it's back. I'm glad ETH in etherdelta is not lost. but deposit and withdrawal charges remain expensive

Actually, 4 Gweï work really fine

But if you want much faster confirmation set your gwei in 15 so you don't miss anything.

What a mess, crypto is escalating its transformation into a criminal playground. Exchanges hacked, icos pumping, dumping, running or just scamming, hyips. As the thefts increase  the gov't regulations will be soon to follow. So much for decentralization because of the few but outrageously bold criminals.

The fact the being decentralized is just being taken advantage of these criminals and cryptos are just being a victim here. So we should be really cautious in everything and for once and for all ED isn't a wallet so don't store huge amount, after you're done trading withdraw your coins and don't mind if there any fees, what's important is to keep safe your coins.

What a mess. I must admit I've never enjoyed the experience of using ED, despite the necessity sometimes due to the coins listed. Luckily I wasn't affected, but hopefully they will now implement sufficient security measures to stop any such hack from happening again.

Etherdelta is already back in the business. I withdraw some of my Ethereum and it withdraw flawlessly. I just hope this incident would be  a lesson to the developer and improve their security and get back the trust of the community.

Very sad I thought decentralized exchanges are the most reliable and the possibility of losing money is very small. Actually, that's how it turned out. But still I think decentralized exchanges are the future. While I use BITTREX, BINANCE.
Now really looking forward to the launch of the exchange on the basis of Xspectr completely anonymous exchange. I think it will be very interesting

and we should be on our guard at all times, it's not too hard create new wallets time to time, make a bookmark to ED and be suspicious when our private keys are asked

[cryptotitan]

All is back to normal,all is well lets hope it wont happen again in the future.

[mathiasjuvouni]

Really bad news. Hope everyone can get their coins back again soon.

How fast you think EtherDelta will need to fully recover the trust of users again? Was there any number released, how many $ were stolen during the hack?

But i think their reputation as one of most reliable trading sites are now damage in which for sure the number of their clients will going to reduced and it will take time for them to recover their stolen dignity. I just hope that the responsible for this will be punish accordingly and will be put behind bars.

Yes it have been hacked , but all Myetherwallet acoounts are in safebly.

[Johnnywelsh]

Wow that sucks for anyone affected by this, poor practice around protecting their DNS records. Sadly I bet there's still lots of people that don't even realize still that they've had their accounts drained.

yesterday when I accessed etherdelta, very slowly. I want to check the balance I have, it's very long time. even many times its loading failed. is it the effect of hackers? is it dangerous? because I still keep my balance, I have not yet withdraw.

[IamTraveler]

So if I understood well, the smart contracts holding tokens itself was safe, but the website hosting it and the route leading to the website wasn't...
Now, when we type etherdelta address, how can we be sure it is the right etherdelta ?

Cheap and half solution : type in the IP address instead of the name. This will prevent a DNS hack attack if I am not wrong. But this won't prevent the etherdelta website itself to be hacked...

[Rules85]

Is Etherdelta not a decentralized exchange? Why is it stolen? Is the website hacked, pointing to a fraudulent website?

[mrpl2017]

Hacker attacks are dangerous for all exchanges of crypto coins. And there will be more and more of them. But exchanges are also taking active measures against hacker attacks. In my opinion etherdelt is the best stock exchange for the present day. I hope in the future this will not happen.

Has ED shared information about financial losses? Hopefully my tokens were still there. I moved them to my wallet.

[Mystica101]

One of my crypto friend was hacked by etherdelta last night in just a blink of an eye all of his eth was gone. It happened after trading some of his token and then he tried to withdraw his eth back to his mew but when he checked his wallet no more eth left behind it went to 0 balance. Since he doesn't have enough eth i sent him some amount in order for him to transfer all of his valuable tokens to other address he has and yes he made it. But the most interesting part here after for how many hours when he checked his other address which he sent his other tokens to, half portion of eth lost was sent there and the half was on my mew. I really don't understand what happen. Well, anyway I am happy for him that he was able to retrieved his eth.

[slavsole2017]

I have not been stolen, there are very few crypto coins on my wallet, and I did not make transactions at that moment.
