Recently bought myself both Malwarebytes and Bitdefender on a single recommendation. But i am fairly uncertain how these really compare to the many others out there. Wanted to get some recommendations from people in the know.

In the last year i've got increasingly into Bitcoin and crypto so obviously, this issue has become more important to me.

Finally have heard the view that all anti-malware software is modern day snake oil, and all one needs is updated current windows - Any truth to this?
