I have been compiling a guide (for everyone and my team) on how to protect yourself from online scammers here:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3415026.msg35714276#msg35714276And I am yet to find an definitive answer to how to protect yourself from DNS Hijacking.
From my understanding, this type of hijack can happen either on your own machine (simple, if your machine is compromised), or from the website level (more sophisticated attack).
Any ideas / tools / methods you use to detect / prevent such attacks?
Phishing and Hijacking are not to be neglected! Using public DNS is dangerous if your IP is exposed, a plethora of misdeeds can occur.
If you take a look at what
Butterfly is doing, you will find that much more enthralling than using a standard, centralized DNS.
Butterfly enables individuals to execute a single transaction and own their domain name forever, free of future payments, which are currently standard, as simple as that. Once a domain name is created and acquired, the initial registrar is its sole owner. This in itself is a major breakthrough in how domain name ownership works. Butterfly has also developed an inherent ecosystem with a native cryptocurrency token, which allows users to create, sponsor, and execute domain names and their creation.
