i know some of you will hate to hear this. prolly shouldnt mine on personal pc. make a dedicated rig that sends the coin to a 2fa protected wallet. offline etc. worse they can do is steal your hashrate for a brief moment until you get notification the rig is down. i noticed recently a case with nicehash miner. one card locked up. leaving the other two mining. pc wasnt accessable. i wasnt getting rewards but the jobs kept coming to the other two cards and shares accepted only my account wasnt seeing the rig. i had to shut it down manually to get it back rolling. bad thing about nicehash is the program injects the mining address based on its config. if nicehash glitches then i assume it mined to the default wallets contained within the corrosponding software, all the joys of mining and its constant babysitting is prolly the least enjoyable part of this. only way to balance is proper rewards. its why this industry has so many salty players i was one. ton of work and no reward. or i didnt have the means to not sell and mine for aloss. add in hackers and all the other bs ways one can lose money. have to have an iron stomach for this type lucrative investment. def hardens a person and can allow one to sink into some deep lows if ya let it.
Best regard
Stay safe out there when you are the bank. there is no insurance!
