Copycat bitcoin wallet service “Electrum Pro” has shut down its website after the company it was attempting to impersonate released evidence demonstrating its software was “bitcoin-stealing malware.”
As CCN reported, the team behind Electrum (electrum.org) — a popular lightweight bitcoin wallet that has been around since 2011 — released evidence on GitHub demonstrating that the so-called Electrum Pro (electrum.com) was actually malware designed to steal users’ recovery seeds.
