Topic: different desktop wallets and security (Read 131 times)
Security is only as strong as the weakest link, the majority of the coins/tokens you list aren't exactly what attackers would want. Even if you use a different pc, if they are connected to the same network, it makes no difference for an attacker that compromised one of the many
I was able to use a desktop wallet and i was not concerned about my Private keys and important informations regarding to my wallet and my desktop crashed and can't be fixed because of the water. even thou the amount stored on that wallet was not big i still feel guilty because i was not concern. :3 eventually i am using web wallets so if ever what happens i can retreive all my information, I feel secured because of the green Https: secured with the site so im comfortable to use and now i haven't experience any serious problem with web Wallet. Desktop is good but be wise

hi,
i have different coins like ada, sxsepc, leviarcoin, xtrabytes, railblocks etc... they all have their own desktop wallets. Iam concerned that some wallets of smaller/unknown coins might be spyware/virus that maybe damage or spy my other wallets...
Is this possible ?
yes.i have different coins like ada, sxsepc, leviarcoin, xtrabytes, railblocks etc... they all have their own desktop wallets. Iam concerned that some wallets of smaller/unknown coins might be spyware/virus that maybe damage or spy my other wallets...

any software is a risk. even a favourite game of your gf.
they can not only spy, but basically steal your coins.
this kind of evel doing software is going to be more and more popular, as there incentive now, with the crypto wallets.
i have/want spectrecoin (xspec), Leviarcoin (xlc), Railblocks (XRB) , Cardano (ADA), Xtrabytes (XBY) , PosToken (POS), Shift (shift), Blockpool (BPL), Obsidian (ODN)
which of them is maybe not 100% legit? Thx.
I can't really say. From your list, I only know (and trust) XRB and ADA. But if the coin has an active community and an actually good project, it shouldn't be an issue (for most of the time). Just don't download the wallet for those random coins that are a complete copy from another with just a few different variables and a random developer.which of them is maybe not 100% legit? Thx.
Do you use various pc, or virtual machine ?
can you run a virtual machine on mac or better on windows pc?
Running a Virtual Machine is way easier than having the money/space/hardware to manage multiple desktops. So, that's what I suggest (and use). can you run a virtual machine on mac or better on windows pc?
thx you!

Yes. You should be concerned.
Use a Virtual Machine or an isolated computer for those coins which wallet can't be trusted and you should be safer.
