Thank you, I did it.

However, I can't see how can it be possible that poloniex.com works and www.poloniex.com doesn't.

polonex.com and poloniex.com are two different things, if you are logged in poloniex.com you are not logged in on www.poloniex.com, basically the verification emails that are from poloniex are with "www" before.

But this has nothing to do with DNS, as far as I know.

Not related to his DNS issue, they have been under heavy DDoS attacks the last few days. It has been resolved now, as it seems.

Offer escrow, receive negative trust

Who would DDoS poloniex, and WTF would someone gain by doing so? Mess up ETH trading for a couple hours? I don't get it

Or is Poloniex doing this on purpose...but for what reason, who knows...can't trust anyone these days

Just uncovered that it's a Chrome related problem.

If I send the link www.poloniex.com to my friend on FB, FB makes the preview.
This means the website works.
And in fact, it works on my mobile phone and on Explorer.

But on Chrome I get this message:

This webpage is not available

DNS_PROBE_FINISHED_NXDOMAIN

Turns out for some reason www.poloniex.com doesn't work, but poloniex.com works.
I don't know why.
Also, www.poloniex.com comes up in the history of websites visited recently, and that's why I kept having problems.
If I type exactly only poloniex.com, it works.
Duh.

it is a problem in your dns

to fix it if you are in windows, open cmd and write what is between the brackets ( ipconfig /flushdns ) and press enter
then open the site without problems

Thank you! I opened ipconfig, but flushdns said that is not recognized as an internal or external command Huh

this is a one line command , do not press enter before writing the whole line including the space between ipconfig and /

Thank you, I did it.

Don't worry Poloniex will not turn scam at least for now Cheesy

,
Everything working fine here , mobile and desktop version , explorer, mozilla and chrome there is no problem .
This error code "DNS_PROBE_FINISHED_NXDOMAIN" shows there is a problem in your Internet connection, if you can't do flushdns command as a7mos said, simply just restart, connect / disconnect your Internet connection until the error code not show anymore.

I have seen on their news that they have mentioned that are being attacked so someone is DDOS-ing them, but for few hours now it's up.

They are being constantly under DDOS attack for two times as noted by poloniex official twitter handler over here https://twitter.com/poloniex
i am also waiting them to come back online.

Oh, I imagined that, but I wasn't sure, not using Twitter... thank you.

However something strange happens: I can access the mobile version from my smartphone, but I can't get into the website from Chrome on Win7.
But it works entering with Explorer.
