I'm very doubtful too. Crypto mining isn't profitable on computers nowadays. You would need millions of infections to even generate a dollar a day. It doesn't make any sense that someone would work on such malware

With enough machines (especially powerful gaming rigs) you could probably still make a really decent amount and since the malware is detected by common antivirus tools and even Windows Defender as far as I can tell it's most likely old and just used again by someone but you always have to be careful with all claims in the cracking scene and considering how long that site has been reliable I definitely have my doubts!

Even if 100% of all pirates on earth downloaded it, it would still earn shit
