folly Bitcoin has expanded at astonishing speeds in countries where it did not even know about this currency until last year, although it has been traded for years on specialized sites.
Despite the fact that this year Bitcoin has gone through critical times and numerous problems that have led to stopping transactions for a few hours, it remains the alternative currency desired by more and more people. In the last year the price for 1 BTC ranged from 17.653 USD for 1 BTC, reaching 17 January 2018 at 10.333 USD / 1 BTC. At the time we publish this article the price for 1 BTC is 11.367 USD for 1 BTC.
If you are not completely familiar with what Bitcoin was, let's say briefly. Is a digital currency (crypto-currency), uncentralized and non-solvent. It is on a volatile market, and the only certainty that this virtual currency will resist is the users who use it. Being a peer-to-peer currency, for whom the only guarantor that it will exist, is the one who owns and trades it or uses it.
On the Internet, the environment where this currency came to life, you will find the necessary documentation to help you buy or "dig" for Bitcoin if you wish.
Against the background of the very big increase in the price on Bitcoin, more and more "managers" appeared, who would rather get Bitcoin than buy. The problem is that Bitcoin decryption involves High performance hardware resources and in big number. So they started to appear hack scripts on vulnerable sites or in "hack" applications in order to use mining computer users.
How can we protect ourselves from becoming the victim of Bitcoin mining
- First, OS si antivirus be Updated (update) to the latest versions. Antivirus manufacturers constantly update their databases with malicious scripts (malware) that can endanger users.
- Do not access dubious websites that are not trustworthy.
Antena3.ro is an example in this respect. For a while, the 3.ro antenna visitors were use without their knowledge to cryptomonade mines, through a script placed in the source code of the portal. - Downloading "hack" applications or "nulled" scripts is again a danger. If you are not an expert in software and programming, you will never know what changes have been made to the application or script and what the purpose of these changes is.
Our recommendation is that if you constantly need an application, download it only from the developer's / manufacturer's site, use it so that it allows you to "Trial", and if you need more time, it means that he makes all the money. Buy it!
Taking into account the three points above, minimize the risks of becoming a victim of Bitcoin mining and malware.
