๐Ÿซ MINING IN SCHOOL

Have you ever wondered what people will do to get their hands on some cryptocurrency? Let us tell you a story about a man who took things to a new level.

Meet Nadeam Nahas, a town employee passionate about crypto mining. However, he didn't have the resources to set up a proper mining operation, so he decided to get creative. One day, he devised an ingenious plan: to set up a crypto mine under a local school and use the school's electricity to power it.

Nadeam snuck into the school basement and set up a sophisticated mining operation. He used the school's electricity and managed to mine a significant amount of Bitcoin. But his luck ran out when the authorities caught wind of his scheme.



Nadeam was accused of stealing electricity worth around
$18k. The story would have ended there, but there's more. He didn't attend his court hearing, and the authorities had to issue a warrant for his arrest.

It's not justย  Nadeam who has tried such stunts. In Malaysia, officials recently destroyed $1.2 million worth of Bitcoin mining rigs. Confiscated equipment was owned by residents who were stealing electricity in order to mine. In August 2020, Bulgarian authorities arrested two men for illegally siphoning off more than $1.5 million in electricity. Of course it was used to power up two crypto-mining farms.

So there you have it, folks. People will go to great lengths to mine cryptocurrency. But let's be clear, stealing electricity is illegal, and the consequences can be severe. Don't be like Nadeam or the others. Mine crypto legally and ethically.


๐ŸŽจ TWELVEFOLD ON BITCOIN

Yuga Labs released a new NFT collection last week. The creators of BAYC are back with a new project called Twelvefold.

Itโ€™s going to be on the Bitcoin blockchain.

It looks like the Ordinals protocol that we wrote about in the newsletter a month ago has been put to use here.



The collection has 300 generative art pieces. Each one is a grid with a combination of 12x12 3D elements.


Yuga is going to dominate the Ordinals market. The art will be ugly, but itโ€™s historic and people will love it. We predict that Yuga will make millions from the new collection drop, and some early buyers will make big profits.


๐Ÿ‘› WALLET
(WEB3 DICTIONARY)

So, I bet you store your money in a bank, huh? Well, for cryptocurrency, you have a thing called a wallet! It's like a digital piggy bank for your tokens.

But here's the thing, your wallet is only as safe as your secret password, called a private key. If someone else gets their hands on your private key, they can take your money and run! So โ€œkeep it secret, keep it safeโ€.

If you want a good wallet, why not trying the very popular Metamask? Check it out at https://metamask.io/ and start keeping your crypto safe and sound!


๐Ÿ“‰ WEB3 EXPRESS NEWS
