Cryto Mining

So, We have programing to make viruses with different time lengths for different ones.

But another option would be nice to have an that's where crypto mining can come into play

Create a new item/upgrade, dedicated to crypto mining.
You can upgrade a PI to have a server room for mining.
Can create a crypto stock market, Buy a certain amount to potentially protect against hacking and faster mining times with better success rates.


You can create a new hacking crime to randomly target a player with a mining room.

It will give out Torn Coins "or shoot the idea around for a different name of coin, but torn related obviously"

The amount it gives depends on the length you choose to mine. You can run your mining servers for a week, month, and so on.

Your mined up coin can be transferred into cash only! Like how the museum turns Plushie into points. Your servers will drop into a crypto wallet that can then be transferred into the bank for cash.

Just an idea. An dosent hurt to spitball an idea out ?

Super interesting concept, r+

it has possibilities r+

Good idea

I could see this being implemented as a crime actually. Torn crypto currency would be worthless. Partially because the US doesn't even acknowledge Torn's existence, and even if the world knew of Torn, they would not see value in investing here.

... but, a networking crime of sorts which hijacks crypto wallets. Maybe an advanced mining crime, or run an illegit crypto market to steal coins... or identities.

Yeah, I could see this being even more interesting from a crime angle.

No no no lol. Not make torn an acutal crypto. In game Crypto, Torn Coin... Has nothing to do with acutal crypto IRL.

Having a server room upgrade for a PI, that Mines crypto, torn coin. Would give you random amounts of torn coin. That can be cashed in or save it.

Picture IRL cyrpto but in game... So much can be added into the game from it.

I think you misunderstood Penetration. Read the chronicles and you will understand that what he said is not related to actual IRL cryptocurrency.

for you reference: BirthOfTorn

Would be really complicated, but at the same time would be awesome lol

R+ from me. I like this idea, and could give the computer science education a bit more relevancy. Added depth for Crime 2.0 to play on, OCs could use it (a member of the OC must be running a crypto farm), etc. Basically great groundwork for creativity moving forward.

Maybe have a tradeoff? Having your server farm running increases the daily upkeep of your PI significantly (but not offsetting entirely your supposed profit). DBs have an electro-magnetic pulse that disrupts all crypto mining activities currently occurring. Maybe a revamped job special can target a user's crypto.

Anyway, lots of cool ideas with this. I like it.

This idea is actually good, r+

Amen!! Soooo much stuff can be added to it. Love the add ons you gave. Great ideas!

I know not actual. I'm referring to game lore.

.

this cool, i like, free money pls

Sounds dope and makes me feel better about going for programming edus

R+
Would be an awesome implementation... Could be used to buy illegal items (top grade race parts? some new items in the game? top end mining and hacking gear?)
