This has now ended due to reasons you can read below.

Wow  :D

I want to join :)

Are the funds escrowed ?
The dl link on your site does not work ?  ???

The 20 BTC are set aside and only controlled by a multi-sig between the tree top developers. And I'm having trouble with the web sever right now and the download is not working on all browsers right now.

Then if you are trying to refer us some where else to find more information about the give away why post it here at all? I would advise against rushing things people, don't be greedy and blind going immediately download and install this thing, let us first make sure it's safe or not.

This motherfucker though, don't bother to download as it's a malware, there is no such a thing as free 2BTC or 0.5BTC for a simple download.
My browser discarded it not that I have any useful shit on my PC.

I have PM´d OP about this like 10 mins ago but no respond (I thought maby he had a explanation for it and i didn´t want to accuse in the first few posts). If OP delivers an accordingly explanation I will ofcourse remove this, but I think in case I am correct I can save someones BTC  :D

12/61 say it is malware.

I recommend NOT using this tool, till OP explains

what 12/61 mlaware from this tools,,
maybe the OP must explain about this, why there is a lot of malware ?

Hey guys, just figured this false positive out. I had recently intergrated a new API to call some internet functions.

Graftor Malware "is a family of malicious Trojan horses which pretends to be legitimate applications. It tries to connect to internet.". I was using an API to do some basic internet functions and that API made my program detected as a "Graftor".

I made a work-around in that function and now the program is not flagged by Anti-Virus.

Here is the scan after removing the API: https://www.virustotal.com/en/file/782dfdd760931b492533de251b377ca35d593c59abdafce59c8c8aa9f658ecfe/analysis/1494112341/

First put the money in a escroew, Than i will be interested to join. Hope you will condsider the facts that i mentioned.

Not escrowed funds,Too good to be true payout for just downloading and most members said it does contain malware then its a big "NO" for me. No matter how simple it is I don't really like to download random links specially on online world.Its hard to get compromised by just carelessly downloading and also please do escrow on funds if you are serious on this stuff.

Do NOT download, this is most probably a scam!

This is not a false positive:

This kind of resemblance can not be accidental.

That's really sad. Really thought it would be great for a new trading bot to be out in the markets

The price was much higher than legitimate/established trading bots anyway.

The lesson should be obvious to most people:  don't download something from a newbie with a crap website promising to earn you loads of money and give you shitloads of Bitcoin just for signing up.  Really, don't do it  ;)

Note:  I haven't downloaded CryptoVoyage, or attempted to register or log in, because it's probably a scam.

With that said, if someone behind the CryptoVoyage site ever does try to develop anything real, then the following recommendations should apply.

I recommend implementing voting pools for CryptoVoyage (or for anyone else who is developing an exchange) as described here:

 https://bitcoinism.blogspot.com/2013/12/voting-pools-how-to-stop-plague-of.html

Also make sure that people that have their funds with the exchange are not held "by" the exchange per se but rather in a multisignature context, so that the exchange never holds the funds up until the trade is executed and ceases holding them when the trade is completed, similar to Multisigna exchange.  (Actually, I think that in Multisigna's case, they claim to never be in possession of users' bitcoins, as they use 2 of 3 signatures to sign a transaction.)

See https://www.cryptocoinsnews.com/multisignia-bitcoin-market-exclusively-using-multi-signature-wallets/

and https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/2ryrh2/list_of_exchanges_that_supportuse_multisig/ - more comprehensive list of exchanges with multisig.

By the way this is the same with Bitsquare - bitsquare.io - a.k.a. bisq, the decentralized currency exchange.  Bitsquare does not hold any bitcoins. All are held in multisignature addresses rather than a Bitsquare-controlled wallet.

Finally, it would also be good to take a look at this:

Probably a cyber crook or mere online pick-pocket. Humans amaze me some times though smh

Im wondering on why we need to download something for just trying out there giveaways then im truly doubting yo give a shit on this so that i wouldn't get any trouble if something bad happens. But i would follow this thread and try to look if there's people would provably win on this little giveaways or whatsocalled try out bounty.

Don't see why anyone should download any software and risk compromising themselves for a newbie account's links..

Free 10 BTC? lol


BE CAREFUL!!!

This is interesting tho.. Thanks for the information! I might need this sometime in the future when the project I'm working on matures.
