Hey all. We built this tool because of how frequently DNS hijacking happens for web3 frontends.

Frax, Balancer, Galxe, Velodrome, and Aerodrome were all high profile hacks that happened in the last few months.

They all happened the same way, someone was able to social engineer their DNS registrar and get the ability to change their nameservers to something malicious.

This tool uses cloudflares dns over http API to check ~3000 domains from https://defillama.com, and if there are ever changes it sends out notifications + updates the monitor.

Super open to feedback, so lmk any thoughts!
