A perfect timely example of why decentralized hosting matters, and why Walletbeat will use ENS as its domain name system.

That this still isn't industry-standard boggles the mind

Late last night, the curve [.] fi domain was compromised at the DNS level. This exploit redirected traffic to a malicious IP not associated with Curve Finance. No smart contracts or internal systems were breached—the protocol itself remains fully operational and secure.

One month ago, Curve decided to invalidate their ENS name.

A friend reported that @MetaMask comaplains about curve.eth (see image attached). Is this actually a malicious frontend, or just a bad report? If it's the former I'd want to remove it from DappRank.
Not sure who to ask @newmichwill @danfinlay @samczsun https://t.co/cUyzxcyjRo

@joelthorst @MetaMask @danfinlay @samczsun Metamask likes to complain about everything. The curve.eth domain is good and should not be blocked.

That is a very outdated frontend though, so removed that ipfs link for now

I don't understand how this is MM fault... Can you explain?

The thread is about two topics:
- MetaMask's domain blocklist used to include curve[.]eth[.]link; that part is MM's fault, but is now fixed (see https://x.com/pcaversaccio/status/1908873594844729442)
- The Curve frontend at that ENS address was an old version, but rather than updating it, Curve decided to take it down

@newmichwill @joelthorst @MetaMask @danfinlay @samczsun fwiw I unblocked this btw yesterday, so there shouldn't be any warning anymore.

Thanks for the context, it was missing since I don't have an X account and can't read threads.
