When I uploaded the Windows-Qt zip to Virus Total I got 0/50. Can someone please confirm? Some posted a 23/50 earlier...

I ran minerd through Virus Total and I got 24/49. I'm not sure if that's just minerd setting off alarm bells everywhere it goes though.

Please don't run it.. its a virus for sure, they're trying to capitalise off the name:

I'm the @stacycoin original dev.. Please help me and report this thread to admins.. Its 03:43 AM here and I need to sleep Sad

While I don't dispute the fact that they're not the true StacyCoin devs, I don't think their version of the miner is a virus only because I ran Quark's 64bit version of minerd through Virus Total and got almost the same results. Having said that, I'm taking steps to make sure I don't get burned just in case.

Hm, well, I didn't download any of the standalone miners - just the wallet. Either this a

1) purely a troll release
2) something malicious somewhere (Windows-Qt.zip came back clean through, don't know about other files)
3) total confusion, maybe a dev though Stacy was just actively looking for someone to develop and release a coin

Definitely odd considering everything worked right away. The wallet loaded. It connected to the network and updated very quickly. And it solo mined, and I even found a block, which was shortly confirmed after. Someone sent me a donation too so transactions were working.

Such odd. So confusion.

Yop this is official name-trolling (with the objective of getting your wallets I assume!!)

Don't trust virus checks anyway man.. polymorphic code generators work very well!

Trust me anyone can make undetectable virii by watching tutorials youtube.. EG

I can confirm that its 100% not a dev from Team Stacy (@stacycoin on twitter / tracycoin.com ), I'm the only one with the current source and this is entirely fake whatever it is.

I have a very bad feeling they're busy emptying wallet.dat's... :-(
