BOUNTY: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5150819. Archived (https://archive.fo/OvKgM).

Zoptax will IEO on Exmarkets but their wallet very suspicious.
I do not understand why there was no check before conducting the IEO.


Download Zoptax wallet: https://zoptax.com/zoptax-windows.zip
I Extract wallet from zip file then I use Virustotal.com to scan this file.
Result: 26/68 engines detected this file. Link: https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file/38a2acbfe7469e5fd5a14793922ec63911a0b3cdb28f3461982c37e9c758127f/detection

I was taken out of the telegram group for asking about these malwares, obviously they are not serious, and it has all the signs of being a SCAM >:(

Most crypto wallets are detected as malware on any anti-virus, so no wonder it has lots of detection, also the project seems dead, no ann replies and no bounty participation. Just visited the site, and, it's dead as well, error 522.

AFAIK, the sections are not usually "Trojan" as in this case. It's usually something in the line of "miner" and it's usually a couple of engines that show such detections as false positives but in this case over 30 AV engines are screaming trojan

I think dE_logics is only hired to open bounty and ANN thread he is not a part of Zoptax team. He probably hasn't checked it.

Accidentally I know about Zoptax wallet problem because I negotiated to lead their project here. Bounty and ANN. I have checked wallet on virustotal and warned to this problem.
this is our conversation on Telegram from 25.May 2019. apparently they did nothing to fix it

but this case different thing when having 30 malware.

I've supported the flag and will add a tag as well.

Its not 30 malware. 30 malware engines or softwares have reported it as a suspicious program. If 1-2 reports then it is ok but if most of them are reporting the same then there is definitely something wrong about it.
