Why does this attack on eth.limo matter for Web3 users?

[bonk]

Q: How could this attack affect users?
If you visited an eth.limo link during the attack, you could have been redirected to phishing pages or malware without realizing it.

Q: Were any funds stolen?
So far, no confirmed losses have been reported, but the risk mainly comes from fake frontends tricking users into signing transactions.

Q: Why is this a big deal for Web3?
It exposes a key weakness. Even decentralized platforms still rely on centralized systems like DNS to be accessible to everyday users.

Q: What can users do to stay safe?
Use direct IPFS links when possible, double-check URLs, and wait for official confirmation before revisiting affected services.
