    The Register[^]:

    Microsoft has quietly banned cryptocurrency mining from its online services, and says it did so to protect all customers of its clouds.

    Apparently not every cloud contains bitcoin from Heaven

      I thought with the change to 'invested/trusted/whatever term it was' mining disappeared? Evidently I'm wrong. :doh:

        I think it was just Ethereum that did that switch (to...nope, not coming to me). The rest are all the inefficient method still.

          Possibly 'invested,' although I'm not going to search for confirmation. Probably wrong.

            Perfect timing as always, considering that craptovalues are moving en masse from proof of work to proof of stake, so mining is basically dead already.
