If you run the scan on any of the other wallets in these airdrops they all say the same thing on https://www.virustotal.com.

Apparently it is quite common:

You have this with many wallets. They have an IRC bot included to find partner servers to sync blocks from - those are recognized as trojans sometimes as many botnets use the same technology.

I've seen this show up as a false positive in a lot of other coins. I installed anyway and all my coins are still here, I think it is the same false positive other coins have had.

Yea it is a Flaseflag my guess is it's related to the way the wallets act as nodes and it picks them up as a ircbot because of all the connecting.

The source of the wallet is available fully online for anyone to look through and build a wallet on their own, if you have any concerns please contact me.

I'll contact the AV companies to try and fix it, but like brokedummy said almost every POS coin i have has some sort of false flag, it is a quite annoying problem. Sad


If you are really uncomfortable we have a paper wallet on the site or an exchange so you never even have to download our wallet.
