No bud. You are taking it all wrong. Firstly an antivirus is not at all necessary in smartphones since most smartphones these days are either Android or iOS.
Both of these Operating Systems are quite secure and doesn't get affected by viruses easily. So you don't need any antivirus for your smartphone.
Even if you install an antivirus on your smartphone it will not add any layer of security to crypto transactions.

For Desktop/Laptop PCs you can install an anti-malware application that can remove any malwares in your PC. Malware Bytes would be best one in this case.
Windows Defender comes pre-installed in Windows Operating Systems which as a pretty good security against viruses. So you would just need an anti-malware app for better security on your PC.
This will ensure that your PC is safe from viruses and hence your crypto transactions will be safe.

IMO, it is better to have antivirus than no protection at all. However, antivirus software only help with Malwares and Virus. The users have to be careful with phishing website and take responsibility for the private keys.

It is better to have free anti virus that premium paid anti virus because it is also like just wasting your money on something which is not going to secure from that things what we are talking about.Android are always prone to malwares even if we have anti virus due to our allowance of third party apps from unknown sources so you can have IOS for more security.

I don't use antivirus on my smartphone because I know what site I browse or for another thing and I don't click any of suspicious link when I online. My smartphone doesn't use for internet activity, and it's only for making a call, send a text or make a chat in Communication or Entertainment, and I think my smartphone doesn't need that antivirus.

But you can install an antivirus if you want and you want to protect your smartphone from malware because you used the smartphone for many things. You can also use premium or pro antivirus to increase the protection for the smartphone itself so you will feel safe from the malware.

No antivirus will give you 100% protection against viruses.
The best and safest way to carry out transactions is to use Linux operating systems. On smartphones, they also have. True, such smartphones are produced only by Chinese manufacturers.
