A Bitcoin investor was recently scammed out of 9 Bitcoin (worth around $490K) in a fake “Exodus wallet” desktop application for Linux, published in the Canonical Snap Store. This isn’t the first time; if nothing changes, it likely won’t be the last.
It’s sad, but as a crypto user I’d be sketched out enough about using a centralised hot wallet app like Exodus in an official capacity, let alone entering my private key in something installed via a 3rd party app store. This probably happens on the Play Store a few times a week, and that’s on a bigger platform with a full security review process. It’s ultimately unavoidable.
Targeting linux desktop. Damnn
Bitcoin is just a scam in general.
“Bro, I’ll sell you this really complicated number. No one else has it.”
“What can I do with it?”
“Sell it for more money to a bigger fool than you.”
"I’m in.*
“Bro, I’ll trade your food for this fancy piece of paper”
“What can I do with it”
“Trade it for more food with a bigger fool than you”
“I’m in”
(Not saying that you’re wrong, just your argument is stupid)
“Trade it for more food with a bigger fool than you”
Or of course buy any other commodity that you require in life. Which isn’t the case with any crypto.
That only works if you find someone who accepts your money. The difference to crypto is that most people accept money, only few accept crypto
It is on the FlatHub as well.
That’s is the genuine one. There is a genuine company called Exodus for Crypto. The problem is that a scammer made their own clone and nobody verified whether they really are from the Exodus company.
If you check the manifest on Flathub you’ll see they verified it belongs to the real Exodus
