5/14 hijackers gained access to QuickSwap’s domain through GoDaddy
The hijackers changed DNS settings so that all trades would go to their address
We immediately contacted GoDaddy & issued a warning to the community
To combat this breach, we've moved our DNS hosting to a more secure platform
We regained access to our domain on May 14th at approximately 7 am UTC
Approximately $107,600 was traded on the fraudulent site & lost to the attacker
QuickSwap deeply empathizes with our community members who were affected by the domain hijacking, which is why we are introducing a governance vote to use funds from our treasury to pay tribute to the affected parties
The snapshot for the governance vote is now complete. The vote will run from Friday, May 20th through Tuesday, May 24th
