<p>I have compiled this Altcoin completetly from Source:</p>

<p><a href="https://github.com/globaltoken/globaltoken" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://github.com/globaltoken/globaltoken</a></p>

<p>After i got a Compiled .exe File I uploaded it to Virustotal.
The Result was nothing, Clean Wallet :)</p>

<p>Some days later i checked again the same file and got this:</p>

<p><a href="https://i.sstatic.net/X3YTL.jpg" rel="nofollow noreferrer"><img src="https://i.sstatic.net/X3YTL.jpg" alt="Coinstealer??"></a></p>

<p>Why does it shows Coinstealer now?
The Source Code is based on Bitcoin and is visible on Github, where should this Files be in Source what are infected an includes "Coinstealer"?</p>

<p>Thanks in advance.</p>

# Altcoin Wallet Warning: Virus Alert Coinstealer in it! Why?

(Asked by: username_0 on 2017-01-27)

I have compiled this Altcoin completetly from Source:

<https://github.com/globaltoken/globaltoken>

After i got a Compiled .exe File I uploaded it to Virustotal.
The Result was nothing, Clean Wallet :)

Some days later i checked again the same file and got this:

[![Coinstealer??](https://i.sstatic.net/X3YTL.jpg)](https://i.sstatic.net/X3YTL.jpg)

Why does it shows Coinstealer now?
The Source Code is based on Bitcoin and is visible on Github, where should this Files be in Source what are infected an includes "Coinstealer"?

Thanks in advance.
