hi, it's been a long time since I have access mew I usually store my tokens on an exchange because I'm an active trader. does myetherwallet is on a new look? I just need to be sure, Im being skeptical to use the website because of its new look, it might be a phishing website.
I already left MyEtherWallet because of the recent domain redirection that happens, I am now using Exodus and Mycrypto they are both safer but I'm also looking forward to buying a hardware wallet once I accumulated more tokens to my wallet.

Same as you I didn't access my MEW. For almost six months now since most of my coins was stored to exchange site I also saw that there is a new MEW update but have no time to explore it since I have no coins to store or need to withdraw.

Me too, at first did not understand where I got, the first thought is that this is a phishing site. You did the right thing to contact the question, you should always be careful in crypto, this is the key to success.
Im to shock also on when i open the MEW site, I thought it is a phising sit but when i'm asking to the other people it was said it is a new update of MEW. But it was better to use it now and can download this in your phone. ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) same as everyone, I thought it's a phishing website when first look the new interface, that time go to official twitter verfiy everything before access my wallet, we're able direct to use the old interface. are you talking about mewconnect app? yes, it's a good mobile wallet to protect our crypto assets.

It is not a good idea to put all your tokens on exchanges, as they can get hacked any time. If you are not comfortable with MEW, then you can use it with Metamask. I think it is quite safe.

Ok maybe already told by other people above. But the vital point are secure your private key in hidden and safest place. And if you are using metamask, it's no needed for access the MEW website anymore. So you can avoid your self from phising link of MEW.

Periodic updates are useful and important, as this is done to improve security and convenience. But in any case, your careful and proper storage of the private key is the most important security factor for your peace of mind.

I usually store my tokens on an exchange because I'm an active trader.
It is a bad idea to store your tokens on an exchange platform. Leaving your tokens on an exchange platform is like parking your car with the key inside the car. Once the site is attacked by hackers, your tokens are definitely gonna go along with all the coins available on the platform at the time of the hack. In as much that you are a active trader, please don't leave your tokens of the platform whiles you are offline.

MyEtherWallet now upgraded and the network now looks awesome. Another thing is not completely save saving funds on exchange site, saving coins on wallet is much more preferable.

Back in January, I noticed that MEW had a new look. As far as I understood from the messages of the owners on Twitter, that their team was divided into two parts, one of which continued to work on MEW, the other half began to make their new projects. It is still difficult for me to work on a wallet with a new design, it's good that there is a function to use the old design.

Same thing with me, didn’t notice a great new look of MEW and i think its a legit site. I’ve stopped using my MEW because I don’t participate on bounties anymore because of so many failed projects i hope there will be more good developments with MEW not just on the look but also with their security system.

I've also took a little break from using my ethereum walet and a few days ago just had to use it and saw the new design. I was a bit surprised because it thought this is a completely new website but after a few minutes I quickly got used to it and I kind of like it now,even though I used a lot the old version and I miss it

yes, the new look of myetherwallet (MEW) has happened since a month ago if it's not wrong. if you are in doubt, just remember the URL https://www.myetherwallet.com/ or you can still use the old version of MEW (the top is provided with a link to the old version of MEW), https://vintage.myetherwallet.com/

a question just pops up right in my mind, Are you guys satisfied about the new MEW website? Or still wanted the vintage site to come back? though it is still accessible but there comes a time that MEW will delete it to permanently implement the new one. One disadvantage for me is that, I cannot find the etherscan eth explorer on it.

at first i thought that i had entered a phishing site and was a little panicked by the new look of myetherwallet. i think many times, how can i enter a phishing site while i always bookmark all important links including myetherwallet. but after finding out more, it turned out that the look of myetherwallet had changed and it wasn't a phishing site.

No need to worry as long as you already bookmark the original mew site . if you are still doubting then check the websites url , you can easily figured out if the mew site that your using is real or fake . in my case i recently access the mew site and i like how the new update was . the text and colors are more cooler and seems to be verry attractive than compared to the previous version . i hope that the wallets security is also improved . since mew is a popular wallet that hackers loved to target the most .

It's already been a while that MEW change it's UI. and also it implement several new features for us, and I think that is for safety reason that it being created that way, because accessing our wallet using private key is so much unsafe.

At first, I was on doubt to open myEtherwallet. Just like you, i also did not open it from the past few months and was hesistant to enter my private keys as well. But i do read some feedbacks and from what I have read, it does upgraded the features making it easier to use. I keep myself be familiar with the new designs and i do like how it looks now.

Some etherium apps have made me forget about mew completely, Imtoken for instance made accessing my coins and tokens easy, going through the web platform of mew now appears like a herculean task. Besides the fear of hack when one wrongly goes through a phising link mistakingly caused me to avoid it completely, with Imtoken, I do not need to enter my private key anytime I need to access my account

Yes, they have made an upgrade like several months ago and I am also not happy with their new design. But the developers were so nice and have left the old version, that you can chose on the upper side of myetherwallet.com
