An Ethereum wallet known as “Shitcoin Wallet” is reportedly injecting malicious javascript code from open browser windows to steal data from its users.
According to Denley’s tweet, Chrome browser crypto wallet software Shitcoin Wallet is targeting Binance, MyEtherWallet and other well-known websites containing users’ passwords and private keys to cryptocurrency.
The Shitcoin Wallet Chrome extension – ExtensionID: ckkgmccefffnbbalkmbbgebbojjogffn – works by downloading a number of javascript files from a remote server. The code then searches for open browser windows containing webpages of exchanges and Ethereum network tools.
The code attempts to scrape data input into those windows. Once it does, the information is sent to a remote server identified as “erc20wallet.tk,” which a top-level domain address is belonging to Tokelau, a group of South Pacific Islands that are part of New Zealand’s territory.
Shitcoin Wallet stealing user data may sound similar to recent incidents including Apple threatening to unlist Coinbase’s mobile DApp browser from its app store and Google removing Ethereum wallet app MetaMask from its Google Play App Store last week. Both of those instances, however, have been subject to considerable controversy due to lack of evidence of malicious conduct on the part of those apps.
A number of crypto jacking extensions were found on the Google Chrome web store last year. According to a recent report from McAfee Labs, cryptojacking, which occurs when a user’s computing device is secretly used to mine cryptocurrency, has been on the rise, up 29% in Q1 2019.

Blockchain pronto se convertirá en parte de todos los negocios que suceden en el mercado, desde sectores organizados hasta no organizados. Los datos más importantes de las partes interesadas que puede proporcionar esta metodología de libro mayor distribuido es el factor de confianza.
La complejidad de la evaluación de pedigrí
Un problema generalizado hoy es la falta de fiabilidad de la información de fondo del cachorro. Al intercambiar cachorros, el pedigrí y el historial médico del cachorro determinan su valor. Esto se convierte en un problema debido al hecho de que los vendedores pueden enumerar mucha información falsa. La información falsa puede desempeñar un papel importante e influye en la decisión de compra. Tiene mucho valor ahora, ya que el pasado lunes 23 de marzo fue el Día Nacional del Cachorro.
La recomendación a través de Blockchain
Los expertos en blockchain deberían ver si la tecnología blockchain puede ayudar a reducir el posible fraude de alto valor. La solución es abordar algunas partes del problema creando registros inmutables de la historia del cachorro. La información como el historial de los padres, múltiples victorias en campeonatos, certificados veterinarios se pueden usar como datos de múltiples partes interesadas. Esta idea podría reutilizarse para otros casos de uso como gatos, caballos, aves exóticas, etc.
La solución simple de blockchain
Algunos entusiastas de blockchain desarrollaron tales conceptos y prototipos para los mercados de ventas en línea utilizando Ethereum Blockchain, contratos inteligentes y BandID. Este método ayudará a los usuarios con el proceso de ventas y registrará cada transacción a través de Blockchain. Blockchain podría registrar la historia de los padres, las visitas veterinarias, la vacunación, la enfermedad y las lesiones de esa especie en particular.
La conclusión
Esta solución segura de datos digitales, como los libros contables distribuidos, marcará una gran diferencia en el sistema actual de la industria de depender y confiar en los datos disponibles en forma de documentos que pueden manipularse en cualquier momento de la transacción.

COVID-19 — more commonly known as the coronavirus has unleashed massive shock waves among the worldwide communities. Now, the scale and velocity at which the coronavirus is spreading are proving difficult to manage.
The coronavirus is not the first serious epidemic that has claimed hundreds of lives and caused enormous economic losses. In 2002, when the SARS epidemic began in China, officials and the general population were reluctant to share information with the international health community. Consequently, there are around 8000 cases of the virus reported worldwide, and more than 750 people died as a result.
The impact was widespread as the country’s economy lost 2-3% of its annual real GDP growth. Total sales of goods and services fell by 5%, and industrial production fell by 6%.
Cases of infections have detected in more than 20 countries. Many of them, such as the United States, Singapore, Japan, and Thailand have cut off air travel with China.
Tech companies and start-ups in the industry have recognized and started to build several blockchain solutions. Blockchain helps to track drug supply chains, medical supplies, managing medical data, advising citizens and identifying symptoms of infection.

Chinese e-commerce giant Alibaba announced its import e-commerce platform Koala has updated its products to include a full-link traceability blockchain system on March 16, according to a Sina Finance report from March 17.
The report revealed that the integration of Ant Financials’ blockchain in the Koala platform allows online buyers to find out the purchasing goods detailed logistic information through scanning a QR code with Alipay.
The updated Koala application is designed to provide consumers with a traceable icon after completing the purchase on the order page.
A blockchain QR code and an anti-counterfeit fingerprint sign will be added on the page, says the source.
Alibaba Group bought Koala for about $2 billion in late 2019. A journalist told the local news that this traceability blockchain system was developed after the acquisition.
The plan for Koala is to continue to apply blockchain to platform merchants and overseas direct mail services and to reach 62 countries and regions with 2,897 product categories and 7,432 brands.
Alibaba told the local media that adding blockchain technology to the import e-commerce platform can address the industry’s traditional pain points like tracking, mismatching goods, and logistics information, and difficulty determining responsibility for the logistics chain.
