How bitcoin miners work

“The pirates we were meant to be! Trim the sails and roam the sea!”

Ahoy maties! If ye be looking for some pirating to dos, make sure it ain’t be of y’ur favorite games. Anyone with just a day’s experience of pirating will know the risks of catching a digital viral infection when sailing the dangerous seas of free booty, and though most veteran pirates know how to avoid the dangerous mines, some can be caught off-guard.

Such is apparently the case with Watch Dogs torrent, which seems to have fallen ill to the latest hacking trend of Bitcoin mining. Somebody somewhere is eager to mine out some Bitcoins for him/herself, and they have included a dodgy little bug in pirated leaked release of Watch Dogs.

The version in question is a fake SKIDROW copy of the game, with users reporting massively dropped computer performance and a suspicious process found in the task manager called “winlogin.exe”, which could easily be overlooked because of the awful similarity to the authentic Windows process called “winlogon.exe”.

Watch-Torrent-1

Considering how the torrent scene works that fake torrent may have been repacked and re-uploaded to popular sites already, which may have boosted its delivery exponentially. As a matter of fact, one of the re-uploader confessed such on the popular torrent site:

The symptoms that a computer can suffer from this Bitcoin mining malware include Blue Screen of Death, additional power consumption, excessive system utility usage, and random restarts.

Unlucky who wished to keep their cash in their pockets or couldn’t wait for a couple of days are in for some serious ‘hard-to-detect malware invasion.

Our first advice would obviously be to buy a retail copy, but if you’re one of those misfortunate people who just happen to get the virus one way or the other (hey, I won’t judge you), update your anti-virus/anti-spyware with the latest definitions and run a complete scan of your computer to get rid of the Bitcoin-miner.

Or just go to the files location and try deleting them, not sure if it would work!

Watch Dogs still has two days left in its release, and you have the chance to redeem yourself and buy the game even now. See you on 27th May, hopefully with your PC intact.

I'm now $0.02 USD richer. Thx Bitcoin!

Bitcoin Mining
Perhaps the best way to describe Bitcoin mining to the layman would be to say that it is somewhat like a cross between the California Gold Rush and the lottery. No one is given Bitcoins per se. You've got to earn them

The math provides a way to prevent...

..double spending.
Suppose I sent you 10.5 BTC and turned around and sent that same 10.5 BTC to somebody else (perhaps one of my own wallet addresses)?
Who does it belong to?
The answer to that question depends on the Bitcoin blockchain.
Typically, the second transaction will get rejected by the entire network.
There may be cases where approximately half of the network thinks the coins belong to you, and the rest of the Bitcoin network thinks the 10.5 BTC belongs to the other address.
At this point, we say the blockchain has "forked"

Power usage/cost and mining

I found this quote earlier and though i would share. it seems that there is a point where the cost of bitcoin mining outweighs the benefit.
"I've done some testing. I tried to create conditions for success.
1. I had handy an M18 R2 - with dual 7970s.
2. I work a lot of hours and my kit is used by my employer. In trade off I use some juice for testing.
3. CPU bitcoining is worthless - just forget about it totally. Anyone telling you that only high power GPUs, FPGAs or ASICs offer a return are correct, and thats before ever discussing power.
4. I am vaguly able to generate 0
