Precautionary Measures

The popular cryptocurrency platform Ethena announced a recent cyber attack and warns users to take immediate action.

Ethena Hack

The company announced a hack of its website. Such frontend hack incidents do not necessarily imply a breach of the protocol, but they do trap users on the website. Attackers typically seize the domain of the website linked to the protocol and force users attempting to connect their wallets to interact with a fraudulent protocol.

Understanding the Risks

Many users consider the website secure and overlook suspicious wallet connection permissions. However, it is known that permissions granted for malicious protocols can lead to viruses that automatically drain balances whenever funds are deposited.

The Ethena domain registration account was recently compromised, and we have taken necessary steps to disable the site until further notice. The protocol remains unaffected, and funds are secure. Please be aware that the website has been compromised and do not interact with the Ethena site.Ethena

Precautionary Measures

Users should immediately revoke wallet connection permissions and avoid interacting with suspicious websites. It is important to check the authenticity of websites before connecting wallets.

Ethena urges its users to be extra cautious and take necessary measures to protect their assets from cyber attacks.
