Ask HN: Network traffic from Coinhive

1 points| Area12 | 8 years ago | reply

Question: if my network has a PC running coinhive on it (something I DON'T want), would it maybe connect to the Monero blockchain via a VPN, and how much network traffic would pass through the firewall while the coinhive was mining? Very roughly. We've seen some odd behaviour from a contractor's PC ... with about 1GB/day when active. Investigation ongoing.
