@Namecheap I was facing issues with server performance, which made my page speed extremely low. I used countless ways to optimize my site, but everything went back on track when I shifted my hosting.

@jaemin_eth @Namecheap It's not the hosting that was the problem but the DNS. DNS and hosting do not need to be from the same provider.

@Namecheap marketplace SUCKS IMO You list a site you pay them to register and they hide it in serps when someone looks for that keyword So #NameCheapMarketplace is yet another useless #DomainNames Market Push the domains of domain name owners that waste their time listing w/u

If you are running a high value crypto wallet or exchange service and expect million dollar security for $8-$10 a year at ANY registrar, you are at risk and are a target. If you are using Namecheap, let me know ASAP so we can move you to high level security and monitoring.

@ChrisBlec @Namecheap This is a bigger issue than many folks understand. No whitelist or bookmark or any other client-side “best practice” will protect from this kind of hack.

@officer_cia @Namecheap Also support for registry lock is key; many registrars don’t pass that through :(

@XpanderCrew @Namecheap The problem is custodial services. Before Namecheap, it was GoDaddy, before them, other registrars. And the same is true for custodial financial services. See the recent problems across BlockFi, Celsius, etc.

@WhatADumbGT @Namecheap @NamecheapCEO You'll have access soon to adjust pricing. If I remember accurately, .ez initially had a higher registry fee that you later changed. Namebase is still parsing through info to make things more accurate. Email NB customer support to ensure they have the correct registry fee 👍

@Pixel_One_ @pasmith namecheap is what I have heard folks using as a godaddy alternative. I have ten domains on godaddy though, so it is going to take a pretty massive issue for me to relocate all of that.

@bantg TBF, I'd say any registrar's customer support has admin access to do that kind of operations, it just happened that the attack target uses namecheap

@TheWalllstreet @Namecheap Sorry but Namecheap moves too slow to be a leader in the Blockchain space. @UUuLLC will be leading $HNS :)

@danfinlay @Namecheap Hmm. People are quick to blame Namecheap here. But Namecheap are also slow to provide a statement/evidence that it's not their issue. Following.

@flubdubster @ConvexFinance While I agree with you that security critical applications need more secure DNS registrar, Namecheap also broke their terms of service by transferring domain control away in a fraudulent manner.

@Namecheap @LefterisJP Unfortunately, both we and the other projects have reached out in multiple instances and received no substantial information nor assurance that anyone is looking into the issue.

@NamecheapCEO @Namecheap Thanks for getting in touch! Of course they have "weekend" support, I can't reach them. Can we do anything to limit the ongoing damage, for example by blocking the catch-all MX that's taking in all the mail now?

Xpander
(@XpanderCrew) reported
@DotTheShake Right on, agreed, but the one running the show @Namecheap is also spearheading Namebase which is the most public access point to Handshake, just confusing the crap out of me if it's either a canary in the coal mine moment or a future 'uh oh' moment that destroys Handshake ability

@NamecheapCEO @LefterisJP @Alexintosh I’m also a big namecheap customer and hearing from you that you’ve shutdown all CS auth to dns stuff until end of investigation would make me feel better tbh. Also dns configs for newbies should require 2FA at least so advanced clients aren’t impacted by newbies lack of knowledge

@nole__tx @WhatADumbGT @Namecheap We will definitely do marketing around it. Jumbled mess considering, there have been 47 sales so far. Not too bad. We'll definitely be optimizing things including how handshake is framed to customers.
