Topic: Hundreds of bitcoin-mining servers stolen in Iceland - page 2. (Read 202 times)
Well, as it happens I do not understand. Such a protected system is the same. Of course, I understand that many systems, even the Pentagon, can be hacked, but still as such a large number.
About 600 computer servers used to mine bitcoin were stolen in Iceland in a series of large-scale robberies in December and January, according to police.
The servers were taken from data centres in Reykjanesbær, near Reykjavik airport, and Borgarnes on Iceland’s west coast.
About 10 people have been brought in for questioning, and two Icelanders in their 20s and 30s are being held on suspicion of involvement in the thefts, a police spokesman for south-west Iceland told AFP on Wednesday.
He suggested the thefts could be linked to organised crime, saying: “Everything points in that direction.”
