There were news that very senior officers from US and Russia being suspended for misusing government computers for bitcoin mining but this is something new... Their mining will slowdown your devices but most tragedy will be when they hack your devices and start stealing data.
Now there is growing awareness among youths on the crypto revolution and so today almost every device whether it is a smartphone or tablet or laptop all have something related to cryptocurrencies like wallet information and crypto exchange credentials.
So only thing we can do is not to connect our devices to any unreliable network and stay protected. I do trading using my smartphone and my laptop and should be careful on this.
Thanks for the post !
