Remember Waves?

How well do we present it in the post "Waves: Another platform for investors", this space was created by a Russian Physicist named Alexander Ivanov and among the most outstanding features for those who decided to join this platform were:

• Transaction response time in milliseconds

• Negotiation of personalized cryptocurrencies (created by you) with other cryptocurrencies of the market.
• Operations with Fiat money: USD, EUR, CNY.
• Issuance of personalized tokens and market them.
• Replenishment of the account (wallet) in US dollars, this through the Lite Client option.
• Fundraising through Crowdfunding.

The optimal development of the platform has allowed the creation of 3 native coins that are named: Waves (WAVES), Waves Comunity Token (WCT) and WavesGo (WGO), each of them with different prices and availability within the cryptonian market.

Clarifyed your memory? Now if you remember Waves? ;D

But? What has happened on the platform?

On this day and behind a message deleted from the twitter account of the official website, the owners of the platform as well as the users that make it up could risk losing privacy, since Waves was a victim of hijack his DNS for a few hours.

For those who do not yet know the meaning of DNS, we allow ourselves to clarify with the greatest of tastes ;-)

What is DNS?

The DNS is the initials that forms the name Domain Name System. Source

How will you understand, all web pages are hosted under an IP address, consisting of a special nomenclature that includes numbers and signs (.), The ideal of all this is that the domain name system allows you to convert these numbers into the name or address that users use and that perfectly responds to the inquiry we make of it in one of the search engines of our preference.

To further illustrate, the addresses we usually use to locate the domains that have been converted by the domain name system would look like this: www.waves.com

Imagine how difficult it would be to remember a domain composed with numbers and points? Hence the importance of DNS.

If you have not yet understood the risk that the Waves platform ran, we illustrate through an image what is the intention of a hacker to hijack a DNS:

Foreseeing that the DNS hijackers of the Waves platform will attack the cryptocurrencies invested by their users, a warning was made through the twitter account solicitous not to introduce any data on the website until further notice. Minutes later this message was deleted and from the Telegram account Sasha Ivanov published:

The wavesplatform.com website is back online. We had an unpleasant accident with the DNS hijacking, fortunately it resolved quite quickly. There was no financial damage to the portfolios of the users. Another reminder that the current centralized DNS system needs a major overhaul. Source

What can we get out of all this?

From the point of view of the owners of the platform, this incident has led them to a revision of their DNS system, this with the intention of further supporting their page and providing greater security to users. If we analyze it from the point of view of the users, despite the alarm that this kind of news brings, seeing that the platform responds effectively leaves a feeling that they are serious organizations despite the constant attacks of hackers for wanting to steal. our identity or our cryptoactives.

Likewise, the price of the three native currencies was not affected despite the events suffered, as reflected in the CoinMarket page:

If you compare these prices with those shown in the table shown in the post that we dedicate to Waves, the figures have been maintained, having an upward trend, as reflected by the percentage variation of: + 2.34%, + 0.32% and + 22.31% respectively.
