OPTN Badger Wallet Rewrite Flipstarter is still live. We are awaiting for the resolution of our domain name and ip address

A few people may have noticed that the url https://flipstarter.optn.app/ cannot be reached currently. I just want to make this post to clear up any confusions - we are trying to resolve the domain name to show up on the url bar instead of the ip address for the page. There's been a few hiccups with the process, but the flipstarter page is still live and ongoing. Some browsers have already resolved the domain name, but others (i.e. Chrome) have yet to establish connection.

If you cannot see the flipstarter page, please temporarily use the following ip address while the resolution process is fully complete - http://157.230.3.218/

Apologies for the confusion and inconveniences.

Russian Hackers demand $70 million in Bitcoin ransom from over 200 US companies

REvil or Ransomware Evil has launched a large-scale ransomware attack, targeting hundreds of companies. REvil also known as Sodinokibi is a cybercriminal group that runs private ransomware as a service (RaaS) operation

On July 2 REvil attacked Kaseya, which is a cloud based platform and has a net worth over $2 Billion, over 40,000 organisations worldwide use Kaseya's services.

Although no company has come forward with the details on how the cyber attack has affected them, the number of attacks is expected to increase, says John Hammon, a security researcher.

REvil has asked their targets for a ransom of $70 million in Bitcoin for publicly decrypting their data within an hour, This leaves companies with one choice, to pay the ransom and wait for REvil to decrypt their data.

The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) have been working with Kaseya and coordinating to conduct outreach to impacted victims.

I pray that that these companies find a solution and that no other companies are affected!
