Legal ransomware ?

[CheeryPenguin]

Yeah I find this idea very innovative. You see we are in the age where crypto market is growing. So to make the business easy for people we need various facilities in software field. So I welcome this kind of project

Hi,

Anyone else learn about CZIP.ORG ?

It's described as crypto archiver and offer users to archive and crypt their files/folders, and then decrypt using Cryptocurrency Payments !

Is it innovative idea for you ? Bad or Good thing for crypto community ?

A ransomware friendly software for commercial use !

And, why do you want to encrypt your files with fee ? You just can use winzip or winrar, and using some strong password like cryptocurrency private key.
It is good for experimental only, peoples will use free software in their reality.

[Kakmakr]

This is a stupid idea, because it will only be a matter of time before someone figures out how to decrypt these files "offline" and then they will basically have access to all content on that site. If you have sensitive files on that site, these people will use that against you. Trust will also be a major factor, because you will have to trust a third party not to access your sensitive information before they encrypt it.

Most compression software out there have a built in encryption feature these days, like Win Zip/RaR/7-Zip etc, so why would you need to trust a third party with the encryption and also having to pay for that?

[coinwizard_]

It does have some commercial use, imagine if you are an independant software developer. You can zip up your program and leave it on a download site. If someone wants to buy it, they can download it and decrypt with bitcoin as payment.

[chomli]

it sounds like a sketchy business n really it's not necessarily at all, like what do you do when you got no more BTC left?

[Asprincess7]

Although the idea looks very innovative, I still feel that it would be hard to provide a proper secured performance by this software. That’s why to give authorization to third party is not a decision I will take

[coinages]

it is amazing to me. i think it is more secure and potential for crypto people. it will ensure our security and make easy to transaction. it is made by advance technology. its future are very good.

[CheeryPenguin]

it is more probable and secure. it will do something good in future. i want to use it because it is make ensure our security. its future are good. it is more potential and provide better service from other.

[bitfocus]

the Idea seems fishy to me, no offense.

[Wendigo]

Huh ransomware software can't be legal in any way, shape, or form. This crypto archiver is nothing more than a password-protected archiver like WinRar etc. This crypto archiver is good for selling IP stuff like books, lectures, essays and so on as it ensures the seller will get their payment and not get scammed in the process. But I am not sure what purpose this software serves anyways to be honest. There exist better and far more reputable alternatives already.

[TomJ.Lawson]

it is more secure and potential. its service are better from other. it is more reliable and committed to perform better service. it will ensure our security. its future are very good. i want to use it.

[stompix]

I think it's one stupid idea.
Basically you crypt your files and the only way to get it the decrypted is by sending a sum to an address from which those guys take a fee?
Correct me if I'm wrong but from their tiny instructions, this is all I could figure.

Besides, it's not ransomware, it's more like masochistware to me.
What if you need those files urgently and you have no BTC left? 

There are hundreds of ways to secure your files by encryption for free, why would you pay for this?

Sometimes, I am always taken aback about the 'ingenuity' of our so called developers in on what they come up with and called a project and I believe if there is an opportunity to raise an ICO, he would surely take it and then talk about how difficult it is to get people to invest thinking they just invest in anything. Aside from the issue you raised, what if I keep my private key, and someone access it on their server which means I willingly handed over the key to my safe room to an external party which even negates the principle of blockchain that you should be the one in charge of your wallet no matter how safe the third party is making his service.

LOL

I laugh at peoples commenting without taking time to read the whole first posts of this thread, they take in count and read the first comment only and make their jugement based on that.

This software let you sell your files, or any digital goods by encrypting + archive it locally (without losting your original file) and then share over the web and broadcast it for potential buyers.

By reading the OP post, I logically thought about that,  I do not know how you can come up with such misunderstanding and bad use about this software.

And the decentralized part of this software make it for both users and czip, less space for file storage, and for users prevent from file deletion since the file is not stored on the server.

And where is the file stored mister I know better than you?
You talk about decentralization like the files are stored in the blokchain...

So you're going to store the files on your computer, allow people to connect to you...and let them download the file? Is this your business model?

Rather than doing that I would simply make an order form, the buyer completes the payment to a random address and at that point, he gets the files in the mail, there are already a bunch of scripts for that.
No need for encryption, decryption, no nothing.
But we have to overcomplicate everything just to make it look cool

[cryptoVinc5599]

I think new technology is always good for cryptocurrency if it is safe. I know a bit about CZIP.ORG, I think it will be beneficial for investors because it is very user friendly. Hope CZIP.ORG will good for users.

[Silentsweeper785]

Hopefully CZIP.ORG will be the reason for profit for all the investors. Its users will definitely benefit. It is used for cryptocurrency payment and since it is used for commercial use, so hopefully it will be profitable.

The file stored in your PC computer, and then you can share it over the web or torrent etc.

Who said you will allow peoples connect to you ? You didn't understood the process and you shoot everything with non sense.

The process is really basic, you have to encrypt the file like you do with WINRAR and similar softwares, and then once encrypted, you upload it somewhere using torrent p2p way, or even online upload services to share it over internet and broadcast it for potential buyers.

Once someone buy it, you will receive instantly your money in your wallet (The one you choosen to encrypt your file or folder).

And the best thing here, you can use it in CMD mode to encrypt files using command line, not only using GUI.

And the main interesting thing here, is that the file can't be deleted by anyone once shared ... not like online services where files deleted in a certain time or as soon as something goes wrong ... file available 24/24 7/7 when you need to purchase it in your own PC computer.

Hope i helped you with my little explaination.

[stompix]

You are making a mess of everything:

Who said you will allow peoples connect to you ?

and then once encrypted, you upload it somewhere using torrent p2p way,

Probably you're forgetting how p2p works

Then:

or even online upload services to share it over internet and broadcast it for potential buyers.

Forget it, no matter how awesome looks on paper, in reality is so unpractical you are going to lose hundreds of customers. They want to pay for something and get that something fast.
There are thousands of services that offer this, starting plans at 5$ a month and you don't have to bother with hosting, availability and other bs.

PS.
In your clever explanation, you forget to mention the steps the buyer has to make for this.

Until now i didn't got your logic !

How this make you lose money ? and is there something fast as this ?

Once buyer got a file encrypted/archived using czip, he click on right button of mouse and then: DESCRYPT.

After that he will get a Bitcoin address or depend on what cryptocurrency seller choosen to be paid on it.

Once payment received, the file will get decrypted instantly in buyer PC and seller will get the payment in her wallet ! (Note that the buyer can hold the encrypted file lifetime in own PC ... and he can decide to purchase it whenever he want. When you said "They want to pay for something and get that something fast.", they already got the encrypted file, they have only to decrypt it using cryptocurrency payment ... the product is on their hand before even to pay it )

Is there any other easier way than this ?

There no other service offering same thing ... all require you to host your file in their servers.

it is kinda shady, when I initially attempted to utilize electrum as my wallet, I have lost my private keys, I likewise post a string in the electrum wallet segment with respect to my concern and been loking for an approach to recover my private keys and I used czip. The organization even thou I don't know whether it this was the genuine way, the main thing it annoys me coz it says that it is free however you should pay at least a little sum. So as it were it isn't for business utilize. In any case, I don't know whether it is appropriate to recover my lost private keys.
