Crypto Wallet Replacer 2024

Crypto Wallet Replacer 2024 is a sophisticated malware strain designed to covertly hijack cryptocurrency transactions by manipulating wallet addresses in a victim’s clipboard. This stealthy threat targets Windows, macOS, and Linux systems, focusing on users of popular wallets like MetaMask, Exodus, and Ledger Live. By silently altering copied wallet addresses during transactions, it redirects funds to attacker-controlled accounts while maintaining complete operational secrecy through memory-only execution and blockchain-based C2 channels.

Monitoring clipboard activity 24/7
Detecting cryptocurrency address patterns
Swapping legitimate wallet addresses with attacker-controlled ones
Self-destructing after successful fund diversion

The 2024 version introduces AI-powered address validation to avoid detection of mismatched address formats and cross-chain compatibility for targeting multiple cryptocurrencies.
