this is a good news for MEW, but i still have a question about this problem, last week i checked MEW and saw some changes in site, SSL was not worked fine. the "INS" was not seen on the HTPPS and i did not login to the site, but i do not know why site's supports do not pay attention this error last week. support must check the site every moment to clients be sure about security.

Thank you for warning us all. I also just found out if myetherwallet hit a problem like this. For those who have myetherwallet are kindly requested to be careful of your wallet. If necessary do not use myetherwallet for a while.

This news really got me worried, because I always believe myetherwallet to be safe from such attacks as long as you don't go to a fake address but the DNS hack is one of many things that can go wrong.

I don’t worry about the strength of myetherwallet’s technology. They are the absolute leaders in this field of ERC20 wallet, and there are very few hackers who can beat them.

DAMN! Not only MEW but other wallets site were spoofed too.All those people's wallet who had username/password saved in cookies(and accessed the website) during the hack were compromised!  This is very serious!!

ISPs need to get some real routing security.I have seen most of the telecomms not following basic routing protocols.SICK! Just because they are lazy to implement and co=ordinate they are compromising their user's security.Today we saw it happening too.RIP.

With this hack I would not be surprised if there were drop in prices, MEW is one of the most widely used ether wallets out there and a hack would most definitely put panic on the hearts of some people. Although MEW has shown that the fault for the hack really did not come from them they are obviously trying to do everything possible to make sure everything goes back in place
Yes, I hope to be able to recover very soon. Recently, the market has come to a good stage. It is really a pity that such a thing happened.

I know a friend who lost 15 ethereum due to this dns attack. Its funny that Myetherwallet.com is not taking responsibility for it. One has to wonder why people still use their wallet with all the failures of their system to safeguard and protect people's ethereum after all this while. This won't be the first time that Myetherwallet.com will be hacked.

❗️❗️❗️ Warning: MEW (myetherwallet) DNS is hijacked by hackers. Before official statements from MEW is not recommended to use. Use alternatives, for example MyCrypto. Share with colleagues!
wallet MEW has undergone a lot of hacker attacks, i think it does not guarantee the security of my property, i have switched to metamasked purse. It is very secure and secure. I think everyone should use it
