1. In June 2011, Symantec issued a warning that botnets are participating in bitcoin; mining & quot; In the middle. This can take up the computing power of the victim's computer, consume extra power, and cause the temperature of the host to rise. Later that month, ABC found an employee using the company's server to mine
some malware also make great use of the parallel computing power of graphics cards. In August 2011, botnet of bitcoin mining was discovered, and Mac OS X infected by Trojan horse was also discovered to mine bitcoin.
on June 19, 2011, security vulnerability of mt.gox (Magic: abbreviation of the gathering online exchange) bitcoin trading center caused the price of 1 bitcoin to drop to 1 cent (although other transactions were not affected). The reason is that a hacker stole the user's mtgox certificate from the computer infected with the Trojan horse, so he transferred bitcoin to his own account and sold it, resulting in a large number of "ask" requests at that price. A few minutes later, mtgox shut down and cancelled the abnormal transactions in the hacking incident, making the price of bitcoin rebound back to $15. In the end, the bitcoin exchange rate went back to what it was before the crash. Accounts equivalent to more than $8750000 were affected
in July 2011, the operator of bitomat, the world's third largest bitcoin trading center, announced the loss of access rights to the wallet.dat file that records 17000 bitcoins (about 220000 US dollars). At the same time, announced the decision to sell services to make up for the loss of users
in August 2011, mybitcoin, one of the processing centers of common bitcoin transactions, announced that it had been attacked by hackers and shut down. Involving 49% of customers' deposits, more than 78000 bitcoins (then equivalent to about $800000) are missing
in early August 2012, bitconica was sued in the San Francisco court for damages of about $460000. In 2012, bitconica was attacked twice by hackers, accused of ignoring the security of customers' funds and forging withdrawal applications
in late August 2012, bitcoin savings and trust was shut down by its owner, leaving about US $5.6 million in debt. At the same time, he was accused of operating the Ponzi scheme. In September 2012, the securities and Exchange Commission began to investigate the case
in September 2012, bitfloor trading center was also hacked, and 24000 bitcoins (about US $250000) were stolen. Bitfloor was suspended. Bitfloor resumed operations in the same month, and its founder said he had reported the theft to the FBI and that he was planning to compensate the victims, but the compensation schele was unclear
in June 2011, a hacker transferred 25000 bitcoins into his account, which is equivalent to 500000 US dollars. The whole transaction could not be traced. Although the owner of bitcoin announced the theft on the Internet, it was useless. The hacker became the first thief of bitcoin
in 2012, 46703 bitcoin worth US $228845 was stolen e to the disclosure of the super management password of the server of the website hosting provider linode. More than 43000 stolen bitcoins belong to bitcoinica, a bitcoin trading platform. Another 3094 bitcoins are owned by Marek palatinus, a Czech programmer. Gavin Andersen, the chief bitcoin programmer, also lost his five bitcoins.

In my opinion, I don't know if it's right. We still need criticism and correction. I don't think this virus has anything to do with which way you use to access the Internet, and it also has nothing to do with which kind of computer (PC or laptop) you use. He mainly aims at some loopholes in the Current Windows operating system. We all know that when a software is downloaded, it must have the highest administrator authority to install the software on this computer. This should be a security policy of the computer operating system. However, there are loopholes in everything, and the operating system is no exception. For example, this virus outbreak, in fact, the patch was released as early as March, but many users didn't pay attention to it and didn't fix it. So, now as long as you are connected to the network, and the system vulnerability is not repaired in time, you can scan the port, use the vulnerability of a port, directly install the encryption software (virus) to your computer in the background, and encrypt your important files, so as to achieve the purpose of blackmail. So it's better not to turn off the self-renewal function of windows for convenience. At the same time, it's also recommended to turn off some ports that are not often used but are very dangerous, such as 445, 135, 137, 138 and 139—— Finally, WiFi is just a way to access the Internet. It can also spread viruses. So, quickly update and patch it .... There is also a video here. I think it's very good, but I don't know if I can watch it http://weibo.com/tv/v/?fid=1034 :
3. Bitcoin virus (bitcoin Trojan horse) & quot; Bitcoin blackmailer & quot; It was popular abroad in 2014, and was found in China in early 15 years.

This kind of Trojan horse is generally spread through English mail, and the name of the Trojan horse program is usually English, which means & quot; Order & quot& quot; Proct details & quot; And use fax or form icon, which is very confusing. The recipient easily mistakenly thinks that it is a working file and clicks to run the Trojan horse program

10. Bitcoin extortion virus is basically sent with virus bound, so don't open files with uncertain sources, and back up important files in time. Although the anti-virus effect is not great, we should try our best to upgrade anti-virus and operating system patches in time. These measures are not only to prevent bitcoin virus, but also to prevent more viruses
