Keep your security - Install Cryptonite Plugin for Chrome

in #bitcoin7 years ago

Today a friend of mine entered misspelled address and got phised - his coins were extracted and spent.

Since cryptos are anonymous (well not exactly but +/- yes) there are loads of scams and fake websites looking exactly the same as proper ones.

I suggest to bookmark exchanges or GUI wallets for ETH and never ever enter them from google or typing.

But there is also a cool chrome addon called Cryptonite - it checks popular crypto websites and tells if they are real or not.

This is definately a great site that I will be using in future. As you said, there are loads of phishing sites, many advertising on google ads so they appear as the top site when you type in your site name to google. This sounds like a great solution!

Cyber securities are going to be huge in the future.

What makes you believe that?

It is all about decentralization. A 'bank' will never understand.
