I wonder if there is a history of infecting user computers with wallet applications?
I mean its a lot of wallets and, like, you always install uninstall them.
Sure i have antivirus but its a lot of very complex code deployed around.
It's really possible to get infected from wallet applications if you didn't download it from their official site or from github. So should only get it from trusted source as a lot of hackers are really targeting the crypto world because of the huge sum of money involved. This scenario could be possible in the altcoins as a lot of coins are popping everyday and one mistake you made, all your coins are gone. Even wallets like myetherwallet have been targeted too. So we needed a lot of common sense here, double check everything before downloading, clicking a link. As we evolved, hackers evolved as well.
I do not even want to download any wallets and just trust the web purse for daily transaction purposes, I am worried about script modules that always have a gap, only sources of github that can be trusted to date. If we use bitcoincore or any type of hardwallet it is also suggested, but it should be more careful because of which fissure attacks focus to the OS device of the user's computer.
