That's good info. The thing here is, there was no info available for a week. Nothing. Tried asking on their Discord and no one said anything about an DDoS attack. In fact, no one said anything but the usual "change nodes".
I've said it before and I say it again: to prevent false info & FUD, the teams need to inform users better. In my opinion, Inleo is a good forum to do that for example.
Changing the nodes was definitely the solution and by the way nobody knew that it was an intentional DDoS attack during the initial days. We all thought that the public nodes were overloaded due to some bad query by someone.
I agree with you on the communication part but sometimes I also feel that nobody is actually available to represent on behalf of Hive Engine and there is no active development too which has always been a concern.
What I understood from the Discord discussion, the Hive-Engine kinda wants users to start using to Tribaldex and what I read between the lines is the focus is on developing that instead of H-E.
To me it would be ok but Tribaldex is missing some features I was used on H-E such as displaying total value of account.
