DO NOT USE IDEX there is a bug that records the private key entry allowing sniffing through sslstrip while loading happens , plus the private key it can be retrieved through cookies forensics as well

Anyone got any news?
Idex telegram is unoperative.

I have been using IDEX for quite a long time now and I still didn't get any trouble on using it. Maybe there is something you need that did resulted for you to be hacked.

I have a separate wallet for which I will issue tokens if I want to sell on the delta and whether this is on IDEX

Thanks for the heads up. I was actually trading PCL last night on the IDEX and all my funds moved safely through the system. I'm monitoring the Telegram channel but not much talk on it over there.

In reality no exchange is really 100% safe. It's why I always recommend to keep the majority of your coins stored in your own hardware or cold wallet. Even the biggest exchanges are prone to being hacked, no system is 100% safe. If you are using an exchange only transfer a portion of your coins each time to protect yourself.

Actually I'm surprised that there are so many hack cases on IDEX. I didn't have any problems with decentralized exchanges, and I use them often. Maybe these people became a victims of phishing?

Maybe IDEX is not as decentralized as they promise? Something like Bancor? Due to their centralization hacker stole a lot of coins from Bancor?
But who knows, I think that phishing attack is the most possible.

for idex itself it is quite easy to use,
but Idex does not use 100% decentralization, maybe 50%

This is a decentralized platform. So no one stands out responsible for the loss on this epidemic. So choose the reputable places to trade

No one exchanges is safe, they can be hacked at any time. The hacked person is use private key, hacker can stole it and send his token. Using metamask or ledger, trezor to protect your money.

Do you search the IDEX exchange directly on Google?
Both the first and second places for Google search solutions are phishing links, though both eventually point to the real IDEX exchange.

He might have been click the 1st and second, that is why he got hacked. My friend was recently at your own shoes but when I asked him what did he do- he answered I search it from google and I laughed at him saying it was a phishing site he had clicked. Be careful out there when searching- always triple check or more than that when clicking sites you want to go with. This is money we are talking and we can't lose our wits about it.

Hi I'm KS03

I have not had this issues either using the IDEX or Fork Delta. Doesn't mean it didn't happen however I believe someone most likely got to his private keys somehow. I would recommend to take this issue to their staff. They will shut the IDEX down if there is a major hacking issue.

Idex is safe but be sure you enter the right portal not a fake portal in exchange. Idex is very risky to use because of the use of private keys were our tokens is stack.

I do not think so . Currently my assets on the idex are still safe. I still frequently trade my cards on idex. I think the problem is somewhere on your computer, you may have installed malicious programs on your computer and exposing your account information on idex.

I heard I was nervous about exchanging on IDEX, I traded on it several times and ended up talking to Metamast, since then it's still normal, maybe you clicked on the fake link.

Idex is like etherdelta and forkdelta we need to enter our private keys . That's it is very risky way to trade our tokens. Next time be careful to inter the exchange site and always go to the cmc to find a exchange to enter the right portal of exchange not a pishing site.

As you said, IDEX is a decentralized platform. I think it's like Forkether or Etherdelta. This is not safe. Be careful when trading on these market.

I have used the IDEX almost exclusively for the one coin I trade. I have never personally had this issue and have had nothing but successful trading with IDEX. The support staff is also always available at Telegram.

I don't like IDEX because this is dump market for new altcoin. But why him do not use metamask when login on IDEX ? Private key is not recommended way using Ethereum wallet.

I have used idex for many months and my account has never been compromised. I used all the options available to trade with including entering my private key and there hasn't been any loss whatsoever!
