Norton Antivirus can mine Ethereum???

avatar

Did you know that now an antivirus software can be used to mine crypto? As stated above the Norton antivirus, they have added their own miner to their mining software. How awesome is that?? or how scary is that?

Based on this news from This link

Norton antivirus had added a crypto currency mining into its products, and it will be available in the 'coming weeks'.

Well to be honest, I think what Norton planning to do is good, this will support decentralization for the network. but again do they offer this mining service for free? or do they cut small reward from the miner? or do they put annual fee to join the mining pool?

The picture above shows some GUI for the mining client/service.

Does Norton not supporting the Green Energy? By adding this features onto their product, this will increase more in electricity usage.

Last but not least, I think this new approach from Norton was being the new version of Nicehash.

IMHO - Just don't use Norton to do mining. xD

Cheers and have a good day everyone!
