What's interesting is that the files in the download link have been changed since the creation of the thread (same link).

Adder.exe 2,199,040 > 2,110,464
readme.txt.txt > 3,153 (stayed the same in size)

Anyway, I'm not even sure what is the supposed use of this tool but I'd bet that it's a malicious piece of software.

Also, for "Virtual Machines: Sorry dear loved decompilers. The Adder does not run on ANY VM" from the readme, I would love to debunk that but I just CBA.

I think he hopes that some miner would install this on his local lan so that he can skim some of the profit. it reminds me of this http://coinjournal.net/chinese-deep-web-sites-explains-how-to-hijack-mining-profits/
