Without the old workplace rules, everyone at IBM is learning and adapting to new behaviors and patterns all the time. Take attention, for instance. How one pays attention in a distributed environment has to change. None of the material conditions (silence, sterility, absence of distraction) or the personal ones (eye contact) ...

I don't think anything but a hardware wallet is safe nowadays. I really recommend people to invest in one.

As it's happened back in late-December with Delta the accident was repeated, unfortunately for all honest crypto workers... In our unreliable crypto world everything can happen and it's a pity... Just imagine an honest bounty participant who has saved a little for months of hard work, reposting and posting, making video and other content, and being hacked just for a moment by random (but clever) guy (or team, anyway)!...

Thank you for warning! I will not today to make transfers from the wallet. Read, that have them hacked DNS server.It puts us in danger. It is better to wait for official news from the developers before continuing to use MEW

We just need to wait and let them solve the problem. MEW will not let this slide for a long time and issue will be gone soon. though this one will be a big lesson to them and will improve their security more. it's bull run days btw, so let it stay their and dont open your wallet.

Hacker is the greatest problem confronting cryptocurrency ecosystem. However, I think this will be sorted out as soon as possible.

They didn't get hacked, but public Google DNS got compromised. Their addresses 8.8.8.8. and 8.8.4.4. were down in some parts of the world, not sure if they still are. An attacker hacked into those addresses and pointed MEW domain name to a different IP. That is how when people opened even their bookmarked MEW URL, they went to a compromised IP and when they entered their private key, the hacker snatched it (because it was entered into his own server). The certificate should have warned people from doing so (because the certificate was missing and was not green), but it is easy to be a smart now, when things are over.

This is awful,those people who used mew and put their rmoney to these keys probaby got hacked as long as these people arent going to put their keys thru researching because it can be easily hacked,then the time i dont like to dos so if iwere you i wont be wasting my time and effort for this campaigns as there are uncertainty between the two.

Update 1:MyEtherWallet says, everything is normal now. [however, I'm advising to stop transaction for few more hours and learn from more users] here is the official tweet https://twitter.com/myetherwallet/status/988836522974572544Stay safe.

Seriously I feel paranoid using mew at this time, btw here one of the hacker address : 0xb3AAAae47070264f3595c5032eE94b620A583a39 ( I got it from telegram community chat). That Means for now the safest path is to use hardware like trezor right? Or use metamask still safe?

Hardwares are the safest option while everyone don't have it. In that case, Metamask is fairly safe, but I'd suggest to use offline transaction. So that you are out of risk.

It seems to me that if MEW hackers could hack, then maybe the market will go down. Hackers now have no barriers whatsoever, they can hack everything and it's very bad.

It was not hacked, they are the group of people who are really experts in hijacking so let us be careful so that we won't be a victim, we must be thankful that a lot of people here are concern for other people.

I'm checking that green url and I have Cryptonite, which is a great help. Very dangerous setup from hackers. Thanks for explanation.

I have read this on twitter and the page of Myetherwallet even notified it's user about this. They said that as long as there's a certificate on the site it is good to use. The site gets redirected to a phising site and almost 200+ eth was snatched from other users. I read an article that only certain regions were hacked such as: Italy, Pakistan, Thailand, Malaysia, Australia and New Zealand. But, it's always better to be safe.

I read the news regarding this issue on their twitter account. And now everything seems to be normal again and they give us a pro-tips on how to avoid to be scammed and phised. Wish it'll help us to stay safe.

Thank you for this post. Now that I'm updated to it. I won't do any transaction till the issue will be fix.
This will be horrible to those who got hacked. I know, that it was hard that all your effort will be nothing.
Stay safe guys.
