The compensation plan for users affected by the CoW DAO domain hijacking incident has been approved; affected users must file their claims before May 14.

According to ChainCatcher, CoW DAO stated that its domain registrar suffered a social engineering attack on April 14. The attacker briefly took control of the official domain for about 4.5 hours and during that period directed users to visit a phishing site, thereby inducing them to sign malicious transactions. The project team emphasized that CoW Protocol itself was not compromised, but some users' assets were affected during this time window.
