AI BASED CRYPTO MINING

Abstract: The major problems that follow arise when mining cryptocurrency on standard PCs: 1. System health issues, such as system overheating 2. System availability free timing algorithm for mining 3. The ratio of electricity use to cryptocurrency coin. Although it was initially impossible to mine Bitcoin using laptops and desktops, the rising mining difficulty and the introduction of hardware called Application Specific Integrated Circuits (ASICs) designed specifically for Bitcoin mining have all but eliminated the possibility of doing so. To the best of our knowledge, there is currently no academic literature on the dynamic opcode analysis of crypto mining, hence we provide the first such practical investigation. In fact, this is the first effort of its kind to present opcode analysis on files that cannot be executed. Our findings demonstrate that dynamic opcode analysis may identify browser-based crypto mining inside our dataset with up to 100% accuracy. Additionally, our algorithm can discriminate between crypto mining sites, benign sites that have been weaponized, benign sites that have been de-weaponized, and benign sites in the real world.
