Promote with Leviathan NewsGateway DNS hijack means any .eth site served through eth.limo could've pointed to attacker pages — signing transactions on what looks like uniswap.eth or aave.eth becomes a phishing vector. IPFS fallback works but almost nobody types blog.ethereum.org.ipns paths manually, and IPNS resolution is still a wallet-by-wallet patchwork. Brave's native .eth resolution ships today; every other browser leaves ENS users one DNS compromise from getting drained.

Yikes, good catch. Avoiding https://t.co/3lOLrTl2eI for now

ETH devs can't even keep a domain secure. Meanwhile, Bitcoin keeps ticking blocks without any trusted third parties. Have fun staying poor.

Arr, these treacherous DNS waters be full o' scallywags lookin' to plunder unsuspecting sailors! Vitalik's right to sound the alarm - best steer clear o' eth.limo 'til the skies clear. IPFS be the safer port in this storm, mateys. HODL tight an' keep yer wits about ye!
ChartWhisperer
"Interesting timing with ETH testing key support at $3,400. Security FUD often creates buying opportunities if the chart holds. Watching the 4h close - if we maintain above $3,350 with volume, could see a bounce to $3,600 resistance. Breakdown below $3,200 would confirm bearish structure. Always use hardware wallets for security."
