brianrkelly · x · 2026-07-24
A screenshot and repost describe Dolphin X, a new Windows stealer and remote access trojan that targets more than 300 apps, from browsers to crypto wallets.
Its unusual twist is an “AI Profiler” that watches what’s installed and used, builds a user profile, ranks victim value, and sends daily status reports back to attackers. The post frames it as malware that behaves like a judgmental assistant for criminals rather than a simple password thief.
