never used to be.  Didn't they shill dash once upon a time?

I recall them posting positive stuff about bytecoin and its clones which was complete crap. The coins were all from the same group.

Yeah, some trash or other.  I never went back.

Do you mean cointelegraph?
I do not know many legit sites in the crypto world, hence everybody has a subjective view on things, so ...  Grin

I don't want to come off as a crazy old man but...

Coin Telegraph was started shortly after ByteCoin was "discovered". Apparently, ByteCoin had been around for years but was just found.  It claimed to only work on CPUs, not GPUs or custom stuff. It was a scam.

CT were proponents of ByteCoin and ran positive stories. Someone associated with them bought my CPU hash website (see above) and quickly added CT advertising which is still there. Why is that old, outdated site still alive?

Read this old post regarding ByteCoin and the related coins. There may be a few small errors but is generally correct.

I know that thread quite well, but thanks again for sharing  Cheesy
As i said, there are a ton of sites out there and the "coincidents" are readable but not prooven, so i think we should skip bytecoin as it has evolved to monero. As i recall an interview with fluffy he said "The DEV of bytecoin was brilliant but an asshole!" I think it is time to move on and leave bytecoin with the other copies of monero behind, hence those are nowhere near monero, so that is enough proof for me  Grin Wink

You "know that thread quite well"?

Why?

It is post about a bunch of coins that died 3 years before you registered. There are few people that would ever remember that post.

Who are you?

Monero can be traced?

https://cointelegraph.com/news/ciphertrace-develops-monero-tracing-tool-to-aid-us-dhs-investigations

Is CT a legit source of news? I always thought they were run by the Russian Bytecoin group.

Years ago someone bought my site http://cpucoinlist.com and immediate added the CT logo.

Lemon_Duck cryptominer malware now targets Linux devices

Quote
Lemon_Duck (spotted last year by Trend Micro and further examined by SentinelOne) is known for targeting enterprise networks, gaining access over the MS SQL service via brute-forcing or the SMB protocol using EternalBlue according to Guardicore's Ophir Harpaz.

Once it successfully infects a device, the malware drops an XMRig Monero (XMR) CPU miner payload which uses the compromised system's resources to mine cryptocurrency for Lemon_Duck's operators.
