加密矿工正在悄然入侵计算机
为了降低成本，加密货币矿工正在利用他人电脑进行挖矿，将计算机秘密放置在爬行空间或储藏室中，利用他人的电力资源。
这种行为涉及解决密码学难题以产生新的数字货币（token），需要消耗大量电力。
尽管此类非法操作经常被发现，矿工面临罚款和设备没收的风险。
这种隐蔽的挖矿行为本质上是盗用他人电力资源。

Apr 22nd 2026|4 min readMINING A CRYPTOCURRENCY can be an expensive business. Producing new coins, also known as tokens, can require computers to solve cryptographic puzzles, which takes large amounts of power. One way to keep costs down is to relocate mines to wherever electricity is cheapest. Cheaper still is having others foot the bill. An unsuspecting organisation’s power can be hijacked by stacking computers in a crawlspace or storage room, for example. Such operations, however, are regularly discovered, and culprits risk penalties and confiscated kit.This article appeared in the Science & technology section of the print edition under the headline “Whose mine is it anyway?”From the April 25th 2026 editionDiscover stories from this section and more in the list of contents⇒Explore the edition
