The DAO is Under Attack, Ethereum Price Suffering

17, Jun 2016

If you are wondering what is the reason for the sudden drop of the exchange rates of Ethereum all around, well it seems that the DAO has been attacked an somebody apparently found a way to steal a lot of ETH coins. There is still not a lot of official information regarding the issue, but until the situation is resolved and everything is clear you should be very careful trading DAO tokens and Ethereum Ether coins. It seems that the smart contracts are as smart as their authors and wherever there are a lot of money stored with automated control they always attract people willing to find a way to steal them, especially if they are not secured well enough. This could as well be the end of DAO if the situation is not taken care of good enough, but it will undoubtedly also hurt Ethereum. Hopefully things will soon clear out and we would be able to continue with the usual things like mining etc.

The DAO, a decentralized autonomous organization, is an interesting project in the form of an Ethereum smart contract that is essentially a form of investor-directed venture capital fund. The project was started with what can be described as the largest crowdfunding campaign to date where over twenty thousand people invested over 12 million Ether coins and now have the right to control the direction of the DAO. These are essentially the investors that now have the right to vote thanks to their DAO tokens for what projects the DAO will provide funds in the form of Ethereum. The total number of DAO Tokens is over 1 Billion and 172 Million and now that the initial crowdfunding period is over no more tokens will be issued, however if you missed your first chance to get into the DAO you can still do so by purchasing tokens from one of the crypto currency exchanges that offers the trading of DAO tokens. Even though the DAO crowdfunding campaign has collected over 160 Million USD equivalent in ETH coins and can be considered a very successful venture there is still a lot of controversy surrounding the whole concept and the idea, buy still worth keeping an eye on the development anyway. So should you decide to invest in the DAO by purchasing DAO Tokens you should do your more detailed research before jumping head to invest, but if you decide to buy tokens you can find a list of exchanges where you can do so below.

List of crypto Exchanges trading DAO Tokens:
– Kraken (ETH, BTC, USD, EUR, GBP, JPY, CAD)
– Shapeshift (BTC and many altcoins)
– BTER (BTC, CNY)
– Poloniex (BTC)
– Bittrex (BTC)

These are pretty much the top exchanges where trades are happening, there could be some more that just recently listed DAO Tokens for trading or will list them soon and we are going to be keeping track on further development…
