This is very useful feature for people who trade plenty of cryptocurrencies because those traders usually have a lot of tiny amounts of cryptocurrencies remaining. Binance has been one of my favourite exchanges for a long time and this is another very useful feature and good use case for BNB.

This redirecting of DNS servers is a decade-old hacking technique that aims to undermine the Internet’s routing system and is caused by hackers finding vulnerabilities in public-facing DNS servers. Affected users likely clicked the "ignore" button on the SSL warning that pops up when visiting a malicious site imitating MEW. As an user MAKE SURE there is a green bar SSL certificate that says “MyEtherWallet Inc [US]. At the time of the video the issue should be fixed.
