I was intrigued that there has been a thread about this story in the Press section for over a day and the M-community didn't touch it. Neither the "normals" nor the trolls - just... crickets: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1614010.0Dash users not affected, I assume. Could it happen here? Anything we should learn from their misfortune? bitcoin was and is being mined by malwares too.. basically it could happen to any POW crypto. dash was mined with malware in the first 48 hours... the malware was called " THE INSTAMINE BUG " HAHAHA the malware creator's name is Evan Duffield ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) I instamined some 18,000 Xcoin so I can't say anything negative. However Evan should at least come clean that it was planned. It was almost clever enough but we all know how that simple variable was not a mistake because if it was a bug they'd have seen it when testing X11. Use common sense. Evan, come clean.
I'm not a developer/coder/programmer technically reputable to look in the code..but this john-connor is one (Vcash dev) malware confirmed ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FdSe9cRz.jpg&t=665&c=RTKv0YYdxV0x1g)

This is really really good! Even if I know much of what the videos presented, it is a great series to learn about the basics and also be able to communicate them in a way that many users can understand. Well done Amanda et. al!

I remember that Darkcoin had a few incidents back in the day where people were running cpu-miners and later on gpu miners on the victims machines. For instance see this reddit post about a cpu miner back in 2014: https://www.reddit.com/r/sysadmin/comments/28klfl/disguised_mining_process_using_up_99_cpu_on/I made a really quick google search for malicious gpu mining on gaming rigs, but I did not find what I was looking for. Maybe others remember this. People were installing some popular game, but in the background, they were mining darkcoin at the same time on their beefy gaming rigs. So yes, all coins have this "misfortune", but anyone can install a piece of software and start mining on a pool, it's not that hard really. Today it might not happen with Dash due to asics and high difficulties, but still sometimes people come up with the clever idea of cpu-mining bitcoin so you never know.... I think it was one of the GTA games? I'm not sure if that was ever proven or just a rumor. Can't remember. yes gta 5 nicely cracked with miner hidden This is what you're both referring to: https://biersteker.tweakblogs.net/blog/11915/hidden-cryptominers-in-game-torrents

Nice analysis Otoh. You should do more of that stuff. If you'd only have used Marker Felt instead of Chalkboard and increased the shadow depth a bit it could almost have passed for one of mine ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

You could probably contact them (since you're already registered) and ask if they have up to date Dash wallet there. Some old version had a bug in fee calculation which could potentially lead to very high fees if kept running for a long time. To fix this you need to download new wallet from Dash.org, install it in place and remove fee_estimates.dat from data folder. (you can forward them this message or send them a link to this post)

As with Otoh, there are quite of few of us that have proudly invested heavily in DASH and believe in the team assembled. It becomes obvious what kind of dedication and level to which DASH is firing is far above all the other amateur coins out there...especially on the slack and dash.org forum.
