It should be same site. HTTP and HTTPS are just data transfer protocols. One is encrypted (s) and the other isn't.

I guess much better the https but both HTTP and https and working the same Huh but it's hard to know this time because the site is down it shows bad gateway. And I just found out this also, but it's  weird why https detected as a malicious site, but all I used is https when I browse this site.

I think it is more safe to use if you use https but its weird that virus total detected some virus in https while http has no virus detected..
For me http is not a good place if you want to login or register in blockchain or login .. more safe if https.
But anyway. the site is not detected with plugin of kaspersky.. but i am always using the safemode of kaspersky plugin..

Make crypto as your bank.

You should always use the https protocol for something important such as handling bitcoins.

2/68 isn't that bad, and is possible an error, or a false alarm. Keep on using the https protocol, as it encrypts your data.

Furthermore, if you google blockchain info, it shows you the https protocol. This means that this is the protocol that they want you to use.

when visiting websites like blockchain.info that have the green bar beside their name, you should check that out instead and it is easier.
here are how they look like in Google Chrome (top) and Mozila Firefox (bottom)


you can click on them in your browser to see more information.

Thanks all for your comments. Yes i also think using https is always makes me secure, i also always considering the protocol itself when i want to visit some site.
If you can check the link i provide, these both of site is now clean, it's weird, could be the false alarm come from vote features(?)
