I thought that decentralized exchnages never hacked. but now realized that everything hackable over the internet

I have got a big experience after my DAO coins were abducted by con men. After I don’t save my money in one wallet or in one currency. I try to diversify my investments. With Etherdelta all will be fixed. It has good specialists.

Its such a shame because many ERC-20 users were part of EtherDelta, and the fact that some of them lost their money is sad to hear.
EtherDelta should up there security measures now after this.

Well,your best bet is to be using a hardware wallet.That way even if the site is hacked or compromised in anyway,you stand to lose nothing and of course avoid keeping your coins on exchanges,people spend years studying how to hack platforms and eventually exploit a flaw they find so be safe and keep your currencies off exchanges.

please can you explain how one can make use of the hardware wallet?

I pitty those developers of etherdelta.com,security is the most important thing in running exchanges,a lot of people lose their money because of the vulnerabilities of the site.

AS long as there is a server, an IP address and an os are running a website, Its always possible to get that four things to be hacked. That's the real problem of the network. It is bad as a hacked a country exchange system. So sorry for who lost any coins during the attack.. Embarrassed

It was hacked and people lost money, thats a shame.
Im not sure how people will feel about EtherDelta now, maybe loss of trust. I hope that the developers can fix this problem so it doesnt happen again.

I don't keep my tokens on exchanges. I don't really trust ED in particular that much i hope they can bounce back on time. I dedicated a single wallet to trade there i only send token on it only when i want to trade on ED.

Well it depends. There are many types of hacking. Technically blockchain can't be hacked tho

This is a serious thing to deal with,exchanges must increase their security to prevent such hacks,ethereum is being targeted by the hackers because they see a lot of vulnerabilities in the site.

Here is a useful post on the subject stickied to the top of /r/ethtrader. It includes info on how to get your coins out of ED without having to go to the compromised website:

https://www.reddit.com/r/ethtrader/comments/7l5yi7/warning_etherdelta_dns_system_has_been/

Thanks for the link, it seems that more people are learning that they shouldn't keep coins on any website.

This hackers these days are really smart and intelligent they can break even the most secured sites how much more the etherdelta in the twitter account of etherdelta said that hacker temporarily gained access to dns server of etherdelta's website I hope that no coins were stolen, site is offline until now better stay away from ed until problems are resolved.

I hope that Etherdelta will find a solution to this. It's so terrible for us, so many users that user that website to sell Altcoins that are crap for etheriums, I hope I didn't lose any of my poor ethers that I have left there

I thought a decentralized exchange cant be hacked. But from what i heard its the website and not the smart contract that is hacked.

If it is happen then it is a very serious matter as many people have accounts there and their accounts are at risk. They have to add more security features as millions of dollars of investors are in the system.

Exchanges are the major targets of hackers. Any website can be hacked its not that websites can't be hacked.
Exchanges are like banks and the hackers are like the robbers . They rob whatever is possible.

I love crypto

Any news when are they going to fix this? All my investments are still there, nothing lost. I use metamask.

Maybe I should look into alternatives like OasisDex..
