Illegal crypto mining scheme was busted in Ukraine

"According to the investigation, the center was organized by two residents of the region. Technological equipment for mining digital currency was installed in a rented warehouse in the city.

The unlawful activity could have led to emergencies in the transport sector, including in railway transportation."

It does not seem like something that would disrupt the railway transports, right? Well... it would. You may ask, how is it possible? Let me explain!

Those miners connected their mining rigs to a railway's electrical system (trains use it) and because BTC mining use alot of energy to function (especially this mining operation, which had 100 rigs).

This investigation shows how you shouldn't support the network and how to create more negative views around the crypto space.
