Thinking of using my Universities Super Computer to mine Eth, any ideas as to how I could mask the operation as a heavy code compilation or something along those lines?
You'll end up in jail.

This but also they would figure out the value of the supercomputer resources you used and make you pay for it, and probably also either confiscate your eth or make you pay them the value of the eth if you couldn't/won't hand it over

Doubt it, the worst they'd do is expel him.
You could make a research assignment re the inefficiency of crypto mining, then just keep whatever crypto you mine.
the protocols are usually blocked on such networks and you would likely be in breach of the campus rules.
because when mining started everyone had the same idea and ran up massive bills.

Do you think shit just works this way at Unis? Any information or products created through research projects are university property.

A guy got expelled from his uni because he did this with DOGE and they caught him. You could probably google the story

wew lad hope that 30 cents of redditbux he earned was worth it

>someone that works or studies in that university is reading >>biz
>he recognizes the post because of the numbers of GPU the OP wrote are the same the computing cluster the university has
>calls police
>police waits for OP in the supercomputer
>OP arrested
Nice work

This this this
Fuck universities, most run off a rule system that's almost like facebooks TOS in the sense that they own pretty much anything you do using their resources unless they say otherwise.
It makes sense if you think about it but it still sucks.
>>1832943
literally fucking everything is blocked at most campuses and the large number of users would mean any disruption to the network would be reported very quickly
But by all means try it out and dont forget to post a pic of your dumb ass getting busted. what would a it tech on campus know about it
The question isn't how or why single people aren't mining them
The question is why the fuck aren't the Universities themselves mining them for profit?

>Of course, you might be wondering exactly how profitable this was. As it turns out, the Odyssey can only mine at a maximum of ~20MH/s, since any mining operations would be using the CPUs. This is still a lot, but it’s not at all insanely fast. In fact, just 13 AMD 7990 GPUs can get similar results.
