Across Back Online After Namecheap Social Engineering Handed Domain to Attacker
Not investment advice. Muhabbit scores how much a story may matter, not which way to trade.
Across has regained control of its website after a social-engineering attack on domain registrar Namecheap briefly handed its domain to an attacker. The incident highlights registrar-level risk for DeFi front ends, where a hijacked domain can redirect users to malicious contracts even when underlying smart contracts remain secure. Across has not disclosed the value of funds affected, and watchers will look for a confirmed loss figure and details of the reimbursement process.
