that's why we have ledgers fag

Damn :(
Did you use your facebook password?

>>6148755
nice, you fell for a phishing website. good riddance, you were bound to lose it at some point anyway.

big pump group with 30k members big pump happening in 8hrs join in !!

discord link --> qXpkdeZ

Hacked. Check Twitter my friend!

>>6148782
Does this alleged mew hack affect ledger user who access their funds through mew?

>>6148791
THE WHOLE SITE WAS HACKED RETARD YOURS COULD BE GONE TOO

Double down dude. I lost everything I had 2 years ago in crypto do to some bullshit. Today I am fucking rich as fuck because I stayed in the game.

Why would anyone use a web based wallet instead of a hardware one?

>>6148755
>>6148755
>>6148755
Unironically this is likely FUD by the hackers baiting everyone to check their account.

Dont log onto MEW.

Trezor my niggers trezor

>>6148755
That sucks dick, that's gonna be millions one year from now. Buy link to make it back

MEW is a crock of shit anyway.

>>6148803
rofl

>>6148814

I have a Nano Ledger S as well that I use to connect to my mew

I think we're fine

...right?

>>6148837
Why, what would that do?

>>6148903

Sit on my hands until the issue is resolved.

THEY GFUKCKING CLEARED ME OUT FUCKKKK MY LIFE FUCKING SAVIONGS I WAS ALL IN

>>6148830
great, all my ethereums are gone now because they managed to hack an interface. fuck off, this will only scare newfags.

>>6148881
Hopefully yes or it's hero time

>>6148881
Just check your address ffs. I still got everything. I'd literally shoot up the Ledger S office if they tricked me into buying unsafe trash.

>>6148903
If they changed the dns and you put your private key guess what happens next

100k$ and you couldn't buy a fucking 50$ ledger

>>6148830
How come this shit always happens with ETH wallets but never BTC?

>>6148755
ARE MY ETHEREMON SAFE!?

ARE THEY SAFE!?!?!?!!

>>6148869
What about Mist? Been wanting to set up an ETH wallet.

>>6148830
You believe that Twitter account?

>>6148945
Because eth is a hacking honeypot

>>6148830
Fake news. That being said, I do intend to get a Ledger asap.

>>6148776
This, or it didn't happen.

>>6149001
>>6149001

Actually FUD created by Ledger/Trezor companies to make us buy their products.

We can never be safe from the shills.

>>6149001
I hear they got cheap ones on eBay :^)

How did I just know

Seems like anything that uses a fucking website gets hacked

Even the most secure shit like MEW. This is bullshit but I saw it coming a mile away.

Seems like complete FUD

>>6148945
newfag detected.
There were several hacks of blockchain.info wallets. The worst was when idiots there used a random.org site as a seed for private keys. At some point the api changed and every request was returning 404. The wallets used that static site as a seed. Afaik more than 10k btc were stolen.

Then literally a few days ago there was a critical bug in electrum.

You guys are fucking retarded.

If your wallet actually got cleaned out, show proof, motherfucker.

https://etherscan.io/

I've got a Ledger Nano S that I keep 90% of my shit on, but it can be a pain in the ass since I hold multiple alts. I heard Trezor is better for alts.... true or BS??

I would literally kill myself. Pls god make this a lie.

>>6148939
Lmao how would that work anyway. Why would someone give the site they're probate key if their funds weren't stolen and if they were then there's nothing they could do anyway.

Why don't you just keep coins on exchanges?

>>6148830
I use the offline version from their github, nice try though.

>>6149101
>The worst was when idiots there used a random.org site as a seed for private keys

what did you mean by this

>>6148755
Op if this is real feel so sorry for you, my MEW was once hacked when I first started a couple of months ago, no where near that much as you but was still was shattered. Best advice I can give you is get back into it man, I almost wasn't going too but came around a few days later, so happy I did now. Also get a nano s for fuck sakes people

If you're dumb enough to use MEW you deserve to get hacked.

>>6148865
$100k today would honestly probably be $1M in 4-6 months at the rate things are going

I turned $10k into $220k in about 60 days and I barely know what I'm doing.

>>6148830
FUCK is that why my token transfer hasn't gone through?

>>6149320
I don't understand why they even allow people to use it to be honest, fuckers get hacked everyday on mew and Ed people's, this is not a fucking first time thing, fuck I watched a hackers wallets for two days steal over 2millions dollars and would not be surprised if they are still going, that was like a month ago, the cunt did not have a care in the world and I am sure not far off fucking the whole blockchain in the ass if you don't use a nano s

>>6149127
You can't store alts in trezor.

>>6149320
>>6149420
Literally what else can you use for the various EC20 tokens?

>>6149420
How do they even steal it though?

>>6149382
Same. Turned 1.5kaud into 14kaud, don't know shit and made so many mistakes for fuck sakes, I feel like I have obtained some kind of cheat code to life

>>6149456

you can download MEW and just use it "offline" i guess

>>6149473
Nigga if you put your key into MEW it's fucking simple for them to get it, why the fuck have they not made it so it atleast does not show when typing it in, like what the fuck, get a nano s for fuck sakes. And I'm going to go check that hackers wallet and see if he has finally stopped fucking every stupid pejeet

>>6149454

Of course you can pajeet.

I use a nano s to log into my mew, Can they get me? I dont dare to check

Yep he is still going, but slowed down a bit, when I use to watch the fuckers transfer where going in every few seconds and minutes, then he would dump it out to heaps of different wallets

0x4C34aE54Dc716808e94Af3d1d638b8EA3A23fA9B

>>6149558
who the fuck pastes in their private key instead of using the json file?

>>6149456
Honestly, the exchanges.

>>6149645
Check your address on etherscan for fuck sakes, also think we are safe but don't go on that shit yet just to be safe

I transfered money from Bittrex to MyEtherWallet and while it has gone through according to etherscan, but nothing on MyEhterWallet. Is my dosh gone?

>>6149382
>>6149496

HOW the fuck were you able to x10 your assets so fast? Daytrading shitcoins?

>>6149716

Check your public address in Etherscan. You should be able to see the tokens and see what has went in and out from the address.

There's a good chance that the custom token hasn't been added so it won't display in MEW, but will be there.

>>6149683
Heaps of normies anon, they have no fucking idiot about this shit and don't really how easy it is to be hacked, they have used their jew bank sites forever on there porn infection virus computers and felt safe, they do the same with this.
Anon they don't even understand mew is just a host of the blockchain, they would think mew holds their money

>>6149770
seems like the ETH went in, but it doesn't display in MEW. Does that mean I can't use it or have to wait?

>>6149736
Probably being a normie and going all in on scam hype stuff like TRON and XRP

>>6149191
"They also seed the generator using SecureRandom#setSeed with data pulled from random.org.[..]
If the above happens, there's a problem because the default implementation of SecureRandom#setSeed doesn't mix. If you set the seed, it replaces the entropy entirely. So now the entropy is coming solely from random.org. [..]

They were using HTTP instead of HTTPS to make the webservice call to random.org. On Jan 4, random.org started enforcing HTTPS and returning a 301 Permanently Moved error for HTTP - see https://www.random.org/news/.. So since that date, the entropy has actually been the error message (turned into bytes) instead of the expected 256-bit number. Using that seed, SecureRandom will generate the private key for address 1Bn9ReEocMG1WEW1qYjuDrdFzEFFDCq43F 100% of the time. Ouch."

Desktop or cold wallet for me

>>6149736
Hold faggot, fuck day trading kills me, only started that about two weeks ago and once I'm back to profit on some shitcoin I was swing trading and fucked up, going back to holding.
Don't get me wrong swigging trading has got me extra ether but it's really not worth it if you fuck it up and all it takes it once, find the right coin, buy a shit load of it and hold, also it would have been $100 to 14k no bullshit but got hacked when I was at 1k and was like I am not missing out on what I have accumulated so fucking brought back in with 1.5k

>>6149101
>At some point the api changed and every request was returning 404. The wallets used that static site as a seed. Afaik more than 10k btc were stolen.
My god I got a kek out of that

>>6149191
In order to generate private keys that can't be easily guessed you need random numbers as your seed. Computers themselves can only generate pseudo-random numbers with a predictable pattern. random.org is a service that generates "true" random numbers by using measurements of things like electrical signals and weather patterns (things that generate naturally unpredictable patterns).

So your key generation system would get some random numbers from https://www.random.org/integers/?num=100&min=1&max=100&col=5&base=10&format=html&rnd=new and use that as the seed to generate keys. What the other anon was saying is the URL for getting these numbers changed. The old URL that blockchain.info used returned a static "404 -- this page cannot be found" and blockchain.info literally used that as its seed. Meaning suddenly all its private keys were extremely predictable and someone was able to recreate them all.

Sorry if that's not clear. Not great at giving a non-technical description

>>6148940

Where my ledger nano s niggas at. Are your accounts safe? I sent stuff using MEW yesterday but I have no transactions since then so I'm good I think. I'm pretty sure they can't do shit so long as you verify the transaction on the nano screen before you confirm it.

>>6149847
Nope, almost brought ripple at 20c but went link instead faggot, yep linkie at 15c - 23c, feels good. Also got a bit on icon cheap just wish I got more, oh also have lamden but have not added to portfolio yet, again should have went in more on it

>>6148945
it's all about managing to generate the private key anon, it's been done many times already. Usually the reason in some shitty autogeneration of the keys on the backend which hackers are able to recreate. It's a lot of money in this, so there are lit tons of people trying to do this as we speak

So is this shit real or not? There has not been a single etherscan link to a wallet being emptied and no word from MEW.

Why even start FUD campaign on ETH? That shit has been rock solid for ages

>>6149995
I checked on etherscan, we are good. But have not been in mew since lamden ico, fucking almost had to go on last night but didn't thank fuck I didn't orit would be hard to sleep tonight

>>6149382
What did you buy? Did you hodl? Pls explain.

>>6150043
This would not fuck eth if its true anyways, have a look on etherscan, people are hacked everyday, nothing new

>>6150043
It's fake as fuck. Just a marketing campaign by some nobody.

>>6148755

CAN NOT CONNECT TO META MASK MAIN NET.

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK!!!!!

>>6150043
Most likely fake, nothing on their twitter

>>6148830
MEW is client side you fucking mongolid

Fuck, right when I was about to set up a wallet too.

Any other options? I want to get in on crypto.

>>6150294
kys normie

>>6150294
Have you tried setting up a Blockfolio wallet? It's super secure - it's the crypto gold standard.

>>6150294
Faggot gtfo

>>6148830
ALL MY ZRX ARE GONE!

Oh wait I sent them to bitfinex yesterday -

this thread is extremely fake and gay

Honestly I've been here since forever but what the fuck is the difference between myetherwallet and metamask??

Can't you store erc20 tokens on the ledger nano s?

>>6150334
thanks bro just send 100k bcash to that blockfolio wallet, i was called from this indian windows support guy.

>>6149995
Your private key never leaves your ledger, if MEW really was hacked at dns level and people were redirected to a fake site, only people that put in their private key to unlock their wallets are fucked.

My roll of quarters is gone!
I left it on the kitchen table and it rolled off and rolled somewhere.

>>6150449
You can and you should.

>>6150465
But can't hackers generate the ledger private keys?

>>6150449
yes, u can store them on any eth address. but you can only view/send them using ur ledger with MEW

>>6150449
You can only store those in the toilet

>>6150459
Glad it worked out, may the gains bless you.

>>6148814
No because your private key never leaves your ledger.

Shit like this is the exact reason we're using it in the first place.

>>6150503
are you >>6150449
MENTALLY RETARDED?

>>6150503
No lol

>>6150465

True but a malicious site could change the address your sending to after you press enter.

dear sirs
I ordered bitcoin package off of etherum vitalik store and have recieved yet who i can contact for tech suport about my bitcoin package arrival is it come by usps or delivery by ups thank u sirs

>>6150503
The only possible attack would be the site trying to get you to sign a transaction to the attackers wallet, instead of the transaction you actually wanted to make. But they can't get into your wallet.

>>6149922

I'm not into daytrading myself, so i hold too. But you need to have even bigger balls to hold everything in just one coin. I bought small quantities of 5 different alts. One of them performed REALLY BAD (verge) and If i had jumped into it all-in i'd be royally fucked right now, because verge was heavily shilled on /biz and looked really promising. Not sure if it will ever recover, but i don't want to sell low, so i'd hold it anyway. If nothing else, it will serve as a reminder of my fuckup.
I cannot force myself to stop diversifying into multiple shitcoins, just in case my judgement on one coin is flawed + also have small qty of BTC and ETH.

>>6150637
Alright then it's actually worth getting one

>>6150506
So we're stuck having to use MEW for this. Sad.

>>6149051
>>6149051
How can ebay afford to sell them for cheaper than the manufacturer?

Obvious paid shills every time you read "Ledger Nano S" instead of "ledger" or a general "hardware wallet"

>>6148755
>myetherwallet
>FEMALE dev
no one saw this coming lmao

>>6150714
2nd hand which is basically asking to get scammed

Wait so is it safe to send ether using myetherwallet at the moment? Using my private key?

>>6150863
Don't do shit for the time being

>>6150714
There was a post on reddit where some guy bought what he thought was a new Ledger on eBay but it came with a scratchcard of 24 words... which he used... 25,000 GBP gone...poof!

but what if your ledger gets stolen?

>>6150818
>female

think again

>>6151030
>reddit spacing
yeah faggot myetherwallet is run by a dumb roastie who thinks "there's not enough females in crypto" "muh crypto wagegap!" she's a fucking dumb bitch and I hope this hack ruins her badly configured web app. there's no excuse for DNS hacks if you follow proper DNS sec.
here's her github account:
https://github.com/tayvano

Does metamask use MEW wallets?

>>6151016
>what is a seed

biz -
After accessing MEW from your Ledger Nano, there is an option to view private key. Would you ever back up the private key as well in addition to the 24-word phrase that you wrote down during the device set up (As an added redundant measure of protection), or is this retarded?

>>6151496
Far far more money has been lost in crypto by people, forgetting/throwing away their key vs. Being hacked.

>>6151572
True and it seems would be a redundant measure to save this key in addition, of course, to the 24-word phrase.

>>6150863
if you have the client downloaded before now and use it offline to sign transactions should be safe. It sounds like this was just a DNS hack, if it's even real; there doesn't seem to be evidence this is even real.

>>6151016

nothing unless they know your pin.

Why doesn't ETH have an SPV client like BCH? That's the best thing for noobs - both secure and fast.

>>6151496
Don't fucking don't that anon, I would never go on that piece of shit and have my key visible, NEVER, it's blanked out for a reason

>>6148755
Should've used enji wallet.

>>6151006
Being stupid enough to use dedicated crypto hw.

>>6148755
not downloading MEW and running the file

Nice FUD - global DNS propagation checks all point to Amazon, which MEW has been using since forever
Pretty sure BLUE has pulled this shit before w/ MetaMask before

>>6151496
Also if you want to be one of the wallets on the IN transfer list on this wallet maybe, go ahead

0x4C34aE54Dc716808e94Af3d1d638b8EA3A23fA9B

>>6150533
kek. id checks out. utr/oL

>>6151795
To clarify: Let's say it was an air-gapped MEW.

I guess the dumb question I am asking is: You are as confident in the 24-word phrase as you are with a private key to restore a wallet?

I just send tokens from my mew to my ledger literally nothing happened. Checked the balance and everything it was fine. Fuckin nerds.

>>6151861

this posts indicates a lack of understanding that will only result in you actually getting hacked. It's good you have a ledger nano s so you'll probably be fine but seriously learn more then you'll see why this statement is really dumb.

Do you feel as confident with a BIP39 12-word mnemonic phrase as you would holding the actual private key?

>>6148755
I don't get why tards like you don't use a wallet on your computer.
You generate an address on https://www.bitaddress.org/
Then you only use your wallet on your PC.

>tfw you realize most of /biz/ knows less about this shit than you when your sorry ass just started with this shit a few weeks ago

YOU DON'T STORE ANYTHING ON MEW OR HARDWARE WALLET, RETARDS. Your address is on the fucking ETH network, all you store are the private keys to access that address, your "coins" aren't actually on your hardware wallet or stored on MEW's servers or some shit.

>>6149736
>locate sub-10m mcap coin

Literally that easy. Did that exact thing with HBT, HAT, LUX, and IOP.

>>6149639
pajeets can't afford them

maybe we should just post our private keys to make sure no one has them?

MEW don't know what the fuck Blue is talking about

Morning/Afternoon all... please read the following:

With the recent hacking of MyEtherWallet (MEW), our investigation team has confirmed that it was a DNS-based-level attack. This includes your I.P. address and computer side. Nevertheless, we have promptly acquired a unique method to reclaim any lost coins for the time being. The process is simple: if you require help securing your private keys or are solely looking for an efficient way to recover your coins, send 0.25-.05 ETH to 0x8E2d009E61e6d238e4874267bDbF1A8DC65e4631 wallet address. It will reflect the confirmation of the compromised wallet and revert the transaction back to yours. Note: this also works for ether transactions that have been stuck/lost in the past few days. Please help spread this and ensure everyone is kept safe until there is a proper patch!

>>6154221
I love this meme

>>6148755
At least you didn't waste any money on a hardware wallet though.

I'm fucked, I made a transaction last night.
Someone explain how they can hack dns AND have the certificate of MyEtherWallet?

>>6154160
It's almost as if, Ethereum Blue, a shameless Ethereum copycat is spewing out bullshit.

>>6148929
You fucks never listen to me, intel spectre and meltdown are to blame.

Literally cia niggers have been in your computer watching the whole time now regular haxxors can do the same shit.

>>6154443
I'll be sorry when I actually lose my money, thanks.

>>6149689
This. It's so much harder to get into someone's exchange account than to get into his mew account.
All they need is your private key vs your passport, logging from the same ip range (and if you moved, prove that you moved). Idk why people use mew desu. When I get into an ico I movemeverything to an exchange asap.

>>6148755
Time to kill yourself? I would, no way they are gonna give you back your money after

>>6148835
Even with hardware u store everything on the blockchain.

>>6149683
I’ve always just used my JSON file. Haven’t ever used my private key or logged in since this whole thing took off Does that mean I’m safe basically for now ? Need to transfer to a ledger ASAP.

>>6151006
Do you have a link? Scratchcard of 24 words?

From what I understood, they use hardware encryption.

>>6154221
>thx for helping man

>>6150172
Check your public adress on etherscan.io if your funds are still there, it's just server lagging or maintenance. It happens from time to time. I use MetaMask since 5 months ago

What? There's nothing actually wrong with MEW.

>>6155704
use mew offline you retard also don't listen to fud itt there is no proof that mew was hacked

>>6155924
just to be safe though everyone should buy a ledger nano s

>>6148755

had to check my shit...

everything accounted for. So is like what happened to ED?

Replaced the DNS with a phising site?

That's why I bookmark my shit nigga.

how fucking lazy are you tha you don't open the JSON file and input the password??
