Norton Antivirus Add Ethereum Mining To Its Products

Share post:

Norton Antivirus, one of the best-known software antivirus programs in the world, will add cryptocurrency mining, mainly Ethereum, to its product list.

According to the company, this means that Norton 360 customers will now have access to an Ethereum mining feature in the “coming weeks.”

While it remains unclear which business model Norton Crypto will adopt, or whether it will require a cut in revenue, screenshots of Norton suggest that the system will use “pool” a street where miners all contribute the computing power they have while sharing the rewards based on the performance of their machines.
