You can not do anything about it, it was your fault for only putting your money in that shitty exchange. We all know that using your own wallet for storing your coins is a MUST.
Your coins are lost now.

It sucks that happened to you. Take it as a valuable lesson. Store your coins off exchanges. That way if they are lost you only have yourself to blame. Good luck in the future.

That's the thing though, EtherDelta is a decentralized exchange that leaves users in full control over their own private keys, so OP didn't even store his tokens on an exchange.

What happened, however, is that EtherDelta's DNS got hacked, giving attackers the opportunity to deploy a phishing site:

It goes to show that security and decentralization is only as strong as its weakest link, in this case the web interface of the decentralized exchange smart contract Lips sealed


Sorry for your loss OP, I'm afraid those tokens are gone.
