You may want to have a look on Etherdelta Guard Chrome Extension (FYI: I built it). I open sourced it https://github.com/paxpelus/etherdelta-guard and you can download the plugin here https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/etherdelta/beeeoaa...

When etherdelta deploys - they call a script of mine that calculates the md5 of their files in github and creates automatically a new version in Chrome Web Store.

I use my plugin whenever I visit etherdelta so I can be sure that their deployed version matches the one on github.com

I have been informed by Lann - a member of HN that md5 has security issues. You can find more information here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MD5#Security

I just updated EtherDelta Guard to version 1.1.149 that switches from md5 to sha256 which is secure.

This is why I love HN, people are really helpful and get straight to the point without any fuss.

Is there an alternative frontend for etherdelta when the website is once again overloaded? Also are open orders only stored on the website?

[paxpelus]

Open orders are actually transactions that have been made to the smart contract. It is possible to monitor the smart contract and get informed on all the open orders.

You may want to have a look on Etherdelta API if you don't want to use directly the smart contract. https://github.com/etherdelta/etherdelta.github.io/blob/mast...
