I was looking to test it for staking for our site, but wont dare download this thing on our wallet server. You could give me 200,000,000 VAL and ill pass.
I do remember latium which ripped a lot of people off, stellar is not to bad it was a pretty neat coin. I made some good change on stellar.
the real; question is how the heck did you increase in the number of viruses found from Jan 30th to Feb 07th. thats weird.
Also why is it using Bitcoin addresses?
would like to send you some, but he wallet report scares me
I agree man, I was looking into this wallet becasue it is POS and that is what we do. I always like finding new and productive coins to take to our BOI for research and discuss to be added.
We run 12 wallets, I am not so worried about the false negatives virus scanners give, however having 7 virus errors on virustotal should not happen. We run 12 wallets in our service and none of them have even 1 error on virus total. And when i see things like:
Win.Adware.Agent-62042
Risktool.Win64.Bitcoinminer!c
RiskTool.Win64.BitCoinMiner.ain
RiskWare/Win64.BitCoinMiner
The first thing that comes to mind are not the best.

Dev please address the 7 virus that show up in the virus scan, get them removed, and please move onto answering my other questions about your coin (why is it associated with a BTC address). I am not sure if your Thawte solution will do this, but I would rather see a clean report from virus total, than an increasing worse one. You went form 2 viruses showing up on the 30th of Jan to 7 showing up on the 7th of Feb. I still do not understand how that happened.
You need to make sure you have a clean report from virus total, you should not have any virus showing up there, as I said we run 12 wallets right now two of them fairly new with minimal updated to the original code and none of them have 1 single virus reporting on virus total.
I am not saying he is doing this and I have not researched the viruses to see exactly what they are, but some developers have been known to put keyloggers and other malicious additions in thier wallet EXE files, which will send information a hacker needs along with your wallet.dat files to any of your wallets, any text files on your computer which enables a hacker to open your wallet on any PC, send your coins out of your wallet, to another wallet, as well as steal all your login info for exchange sites, other crypto related sites, even your online banking sites, or online wallets. You have to be very careful these days, the best method is no viruses showing up, and even then its still not the safest. Just because something does not happen right now means nothing, the virus could still be collecting and recording information for all we know, A hacker can wait, for a long time before he executes the final hack.
Like I said I can not confirm exactly what those viruses are that are being displayed, what i do know is I run 12 wallets and none of them report 1 virus on virustotal.
In is defense a lot of good developers have been thru this and removed the bad stuff from the code and progressed very well with wonderful coins and great communities.
