I’ve been using CoinMarketCap since 2017 to check in on the prices of my coins and tokens from time to time, and not once has it ever triggered my anti-virus protection program… that is until recently sadly.

This is what comes up when my security software is triggered after navigating over to CoinMarketCap via a Google Chrome browser:

Report: Blocked Website

Website: telegaon . c o m <— (Funnily enough, it triggered it just now simply by typing the website here before breaking it apart… in a Reddit post draft… that’s just scarry!)

Category: Riskware

Anyway, ever since this happened, I now check all of my coin and token prices on Coinbase instead. I hope all of you stay safe out there, and be careful. Too many companies out there these days are willing to sacrifice their good names in the pursuit of profits… no matter who gets hurt in the crossfire.
