trying to create a eth mining rat thats embedded in a "robux miner" program. i have the exe for the useless "robux miner", which does nothing but makes it look like you are mining robux, and i have the stub for the real eth miner, now i want to make it so that the victim can execute one single file which will run both the robux miner and start the rat aswell. help?
 
Hello,
first a few disclaimers:
  • First of all don't do that it's not nice and it is a scam.
  • Second, if you don't care about playing nice, still don't do this. Mining Eth on a normal machine is really(and I mean really) inefficient. Unless you have 6+GB graphics card installed you won't be able to make a dent. And if you have a customer base large enough to profit from scamming them, it would be likely more profitable to build a decent Robux(whatever that is) miner and take few % as a cut. (There are few theoretical possibilities to make the scam more profitable, however I still think its not worth the effort.)
Second, how to do it if the disclaimers aren't enough:
  • The .exe file will be of a little help to you if you want to have your miner as a single executable. Also, most of the common AVs will auto-flag most miners so unless you manage to persuade your users to disable them, tough luck.
  • Instead of the .exe file, you need the source code which would be normally compiled to the .exe file. However instead of compiling it as the .exe file you will need to create .dll(dynamic library) or a static library(.a).
    • This will require possibly quite deep knowledge of the miner in question. Also likely some C knowledge, you will need to modify the make file, the configuration etc.
    • This also doesn't mean that the file won't be flagged with the AV so you will have to invest additional resources into obfuscating the code which is a huge pain.
  • Then you will use the Robux miner stub and compile it together with the .dll or .a library from the previous step to create the fake miner.
    • since it is compiled, you will need to include the information about which mining pool you wish to connect to.
    • also, since it will be likely a lot of disjointed miners coming together, you will likely need to set up a mining proxy to gather the traffic because most of the mining pools have limits on how many miners can connect to one account.
    • This proxy will have to be hosted somewhere so you will have to get anonymous-enough hosting. Setting up anonymous-enough hosting is costly and it is a pain. Also, if it ever gets taken down, you just lost your hardwired configuration and you can start over. So you probably need to have some backup.
    • There are likely many more issues that will crop up along the way. These are just the few I could think of from the top of my head. And yes, for past few weeks I've played with crypto and miners a bit more than I originally intended so the pain is still fresh.
  • Now suppose that you succeeded with all the previous steps. So you're ready to rake in the $$$, right?
    Wrong. There is one more caveat and potentially a huge one. Your miners are mining towards a wallet - an unique address. And on blockchain, unless you do some additional shenanigans, all transactions are traceable. So if someone takes apart your code and has your address, they can trace all the transaction from your less-then-legally filled wallet.
    • Now there are still ways to mitigate that. For example Tornado cash or Monero. But that is story for a different time.
TLDR: if you have enough knowledge to pull all this off and not get caught, there are likely easier(even if you don't care about legality) ways to generate profit online.
For example me: I think I have enough knowledge to pull this off in Theory. However It would likely take me several months to set everything up. And even then it would be likely that I would make a mistake and end up in a position I don't want to be in.
However feel free to follow all the previous steps. Maybe I am just a salty looser without enough guts to pull such a scheme off ;-).
 
If its a rat or anything that connect from you to a victim its a server connection between you and the victim. You'll need to crypt it so it wont be blocked/flagged by AV.

Combining 2 miners will make the victim computer so slow and u wont earn a penny.

Also, making a software combining 2 .exe files that will run both code at the same time, ull need to modify the whole code so it can work asynchronously because you dont want execution of 1 blocking the execution of the other one.

So basically you are really but REALLLLY far to make it work properly... for something that wont bring a cent unless you have 200k victims. You're trying something really complicated.

You should use existing silent miners that you can rent. Better options.

good luck
