In my opinion I don't think bitcoin mining in computer not profitable,if any one does mine I don't Sade them, its my personal opinion, because when we do mine in PC we can't produce so much among of bitcoins, but our computer got some virus and CPU also damage so i don't encourage computer mining.

I think it's difficult for the average user to discover the malware mining software that is present in ads and websites. So installing ad blockers on web browsers is an effective way to prevent malware mining. I would recommend minerBlock among these.

Crypto Jacking has become one of the biggest Internet threats, but most people don't even know what or what to do to protect devices from it.
It is simply the use of other people's computers in mining cryptocurrencies, and hackers do this by sending malicious links to users and when it opens it the mining codes are loaded onto the computer.


How do you know if a site is using your machine in hidden mining?
Once you notice a slow performance in your computer with a high temperature during access to a site, you must suspect this site and start scanning your device.


How to protect your machine from being used in hidden mining operations?
There are a number of measures we can take to protect our devices from cryptocurrency mining the fastest is Relying on Internet browser add-ons that detect the presence of cryptocurrency mining software code, and then prohibit their use of the computer while visiting any website on the browser.

now almost all browsers and antivirus block those mining virus by default, so there is nothing to worry anymore.

the first days were a problem because you had to block them manually

I discovered this matter in a practical way on one of the tap sites where your mining machine is being used without you knowing it. Also, it can happen with you while downloading a program or games. The hackers have developed many ways to access the device of many people without knowing them. So we have the limit and make sure of any action you take to protect your device and your private information.

Installing a good antivirus software is the best solution to protect yourself from mining malware. I have Kaspersky installed and it detected a mining malware in uTorrent software years ago.

I think you can protect your computer with antivirus or your browser code to protect it from hidden excavations. If someone enters your computer easily, you will not get any information. If anyone wants to log in, they will berth if they want the code.

The hidden mining process takes place without the user’s approval and fraudulently, so the capabilities and resources of the device, whether it is a computer or a mobile phone, are used for the electronic mining process, and this penetration is done by various means such as using some sites (such as file sharing sites).

From my own experience. In order to scan your computer or gadgets for malware, you can use the free Malwarebytes utility and its AdwCleaner add-on. The first application checks the hard drive and RAM for viruses, the second - for adware. Regular scanning will almost completely protect your gadgets from this type of mining.

I have also been trapped on that site, when I was doing cloud mining, it turned out that some of my data was missing, I was surprised and decided to quit the dangerous mine site.

There are many browser extensions that you can use to stop mining on your browser and some of them are very good. Also if you have a good antivirus and malware detector it is often able to detect online mining as well and stop this from happening. Mining is a very big problem as it damages and drains your battery very fast and therefore it is best to try and stop it at all costs.

You are right, this method has spread a lot and many people have been exploited by it, but we can avoid it by staying away from the anonymous links that are sent to us through the mail because these links can be harmful

The phenomenon of hidden mining has spread a lot and affected the computers of many people who work in the field of encryption, as many organ organs were damaged and we can even get away from our exposure to this violation. We have to move away from pressure on any unknown and unreliable link

Of course, the use of an antivirus is necessary in addition to avoiding downloading programs from unknown sources, as is the use of programs designed to eliminate trojans.

Not just a normal anti-virus, but an all in one antivirus were it ca protect your device from all the malwares and malicious attacks from other device and over the internet. Also weekly scanning of your device is a big help so that you can ensure that your device is free from virus.

Well as far as i know, you need only just one anti virus to your personal computer because when you have a lot of it, there will ge have a problem to your computer like having a virus or what. I hope you may understand.

    • Майнер криптовалюты Hut 8 Corp опубликовал отчет о своих результатах за последние шесть месяцев. Согласно пресс-релизу компании , Hut 8 увеличила выручку до $60,6 млн за шесть месяцев, закончившихся 31 декабря 2023 года. Основные показатели финансовой отчетности Hut 8 включают увеличение выручки на 32% и значительное увеличение чистой прибыли до $6,2 млн по сравнению с к предыдущему чистому убытку. Стоимость майнинга биткойнов ( BTC ) составила 18 815 долларов США, и за этот период компания добыла 1244 биткойна. Стоимость энергии Hut 8 за МВтч составила 44,52 доллара США, что отражает эффективность управления затратами на электроэнергию. Биткойн укрепляет активы Hut 8 Сила баланса компании очевидна в ее активах в биткойнах : по состоянию на 31 декабря 2023 года 9 195 биткойнов оценивались примерно в 388,1 миллиона долларов. Эта база активов обеспечивает Hut 8 значительную рыночную стоимость и потенциал для будущих доходов.

С начала года первая и до сих пор лидирующая криптовалюта в мире подорожала на 60%, а в начале марта BTC обновил свой исторический максимум, поднявшись выше $70 000. Кроме того, рыночная капитализация Биткойна превысила 1,4 триллиона долларов, что сделало самую ценную криптовалюту восьмым по величине активом в мире, обогнав серебро.

Банк посчитал эти операции сомнительными и теперь всем заблокированным нужно подтвердить источник происхождения средств перед банком. Для подтверждения необходимо предоставить банку скриншот личного кабинета криптобиржи, адрес сайта, пользовательское имя и историю транзакций.   🔥 Ethena Labs сделают аирдроп на 750 млн токенов   2 апреля DeFi-протокол Ethena Labs проведет аирдроп 750 млн токенов управления ENA среди участников программы поощрения Shard. Общий объем монет составит 5% от эмиссии. Пользователи получат количество токенов, 1к1 к набранным в ходе Shard баллам — «шардам» — до 1 апреля. Получить активы необходимо в течение 30 дней. А невостребованные ENA в дальнейшем разделят между всеми участниками аирдропа.   💸 Пятый по величине биткоин-кошелек перевел 94 500 BTC   23 марта пятый по объему хранящихся биткоинов кошелек перевел монеты стоимостью более $6 млрд на три новых адреса. 94 500 битковена лежали без движения еще с 2019 года.
