Yes, for now, EtherDelta is under investigation, it was DNS hack. For anyone who has left Tokens on EtherDelta Exchange Smart Contract (didn't transfer to wallet) I post list to YouTube how to withdraw Tokens from smart contract to wallet without using EtherDelta website: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=slru097RrfM&feature=youtu.be
If you been using ED in last 24h clear your DNS cache:
1. Open CMD with administrator privileges (Run as administrator)
2. Type: ipconfig /flushdns
3. Restart Windows and Router

Thanks for this, ED isn't the most user friendly exchange, but gotta love the perks of dencentralized exchanges, this wouldn't be possible on centralized exchange...Also I wasn't even aware of deltabalances.github, and many people I know weren't either so this helped in more ways than one.

It's confirmed and some said that don't just log in for now or else your coins will affected by the hack. I don't know if our coins are safe there or not and I don't have any guts to check it out for now, I'm waiting for the directive of the etherdelta before checking them out again. Keep us posted here and I will check this thread from time to time on what are the progress with the hacking incident and I hope this storm calms soon.

I woke up to this news and the announcement, quite scary, as of yet is there any confirmation that anything was actually stolen or what it was that was infiltrated? From what I can gather it seems as though they just directed traffic.

Hacking is a bit over exaggerated word for this, I think it was some spoofing attack or may be some phishing attack. There are several types of attacks and most of them are done due to negligence of the people themselves. This is must for all the people to know about these types of attacks and also about the best practices on which they can be countered. Because the money is decentralized and you have to own it else people (Attackers) wont let you to have it.

When You put multiple order in multiple coins, Etherdelta sucks. I hate EtherDelta as I don't even know which order consumed my ETH. It's not even in etherscan that I can know and transfer that coin. It just consumes my eth whenever I transfer to the exchange.

If I did not go to EtherDelta for 5-6 days, my deposit on the exchange as well as my MEW wallet is safe? Hackers just collected private keys from those who directly imported them to the phishing site, right?

"Just redirected" but still potentially hazardous if you imported your wallet + private key into the phishing site.
They apparantly created an almost identical replica, I already heard people talking about an Inside Job.
Anyway that's just speculaton, it's very concerning what is happing currently, just heard that also Poloniex is affected.

I logged 24 hours into the ED yesterday. This morning I saw the ED message was hacked. OMG. I have a little token and eth. I hope not to lose them.

Did you import your private key or just opened ED?

There was a strange behaviour on my wallet that still happening until now . Etherscan always shows new transaction to my address.

Some of my tokens were moving on it's own to but ended up fail (eventhough it was not deposit on ED) (fake transaction? how come). So for convenience, I transfer some tokens with value on my new ethereum address. The only affected address were those who are currently logged on ED before the hacked incident. Those address that being forgotten before are fine. Really weird.

According to EtherDelta on Twitter, all deposits should be safe below is the official announcement from EtherDelta Twitter Account. I moved all Tokens "just in case" I am always a little paranoid with security. So far all my assets are split into 7 MEW wallets.

*IMPORTANT* Also note deposits can only be accessed through user's individual private key via the EtherDelta contract. If you had *NEVER* imported your key on the imposer's phishing site, your deposit should be safe.

How will I know if my private keys are not stolen. I just login yesterday to sell a coin. Are there any reports of stolen tokens from Etherdelta users? This is so scary. They are hacking the dns of cloudflare to manipulate etherdelta.

It won't be the either way. Etherdelta never has access to the private keys of its users' wallets (except in the case if you haven't import keys to phising page as shown by hackers yesterday). It works in completely decentralized way which enables users to have complete privacy and freedom in operation. As a result, none user will find tokens stealing from their wallet.
However, where actual risk lies is in trading tokens on Orderbook as ED confirmed on Twitter that Orderbook has been compromised and there are fake orders on it. So it is better to wait for ED official announcement about recovery before commencing trading.

Yes I had the issue either.

I actually assumed it was my browser that had some exploit installed. But after clearing cookies, DNS, etc, it was still going to that site.

If you read their twitter they are confirming

https://twitter.com/etherdelta

However what doesn't make sense is why would they hack their DNS and not send to a phishing site instead of showing those ads, doesn't make sense.

Holy snap! That's scary O.o
I'm glad I never liked their site, I found it too confusing and ended up going to Binance. Little more hassle, but I like it.

Thanks for this which would really be helpful for those traders wont able to know on what would they do on getting out or transferring those coins out before its too late. I was little bit relieved that i did able to withdraw coins from ED to my MEW itself before the issue had arise. For those people who do have still balance you should took this step.

in the EtherDelta telegram chat there are people who say that MyEtherWallets were emptied, apparantly they are some yotube videos of affected users. Not sure it's correct or just FUD, I could not find anything related to that yet. Still a good advice to move your tokens to another wallet that has not been imported to ED in recent days.

Maybe they were hacked its because they visit the site even if there was a warning of unsafe site. But right now etherdelta is back.

I still can not access it until now , is it true that etherdelta is back?

Warning message appears when I visit ED but I just ignore it because ED has not provided a solution on their twitter

I think all crypto currency exchange need to up grade there security system because the issue of exchange been hacked is happening simultaneously and this will be the third time this month. However, This is the reason why is not advisable to keep bitcoin or altcoin on exchange site.
