What is Silent XMR Miner Builder v0.2 + Tutorial?
Silent XMR Miner Builder is a
malware creation tool that generates
hidden cryptocurrency miners targeting
Monero (XMR). Unlike legitimate mining software, these miners operate
without user consent, silently draining system resources.
Key Features
1. Silent Miner Generation
- Creates undetectable Monero miners.
- Works in hidden mode (no visible processes).
2. CPU & GPU Mining Support
- Optimized for CPU mining (most common).
- Some versions support GPU mining for higher efficiency.
3. Customizable Mining Pools
- Allows attackers to set their mining pool (where profits go).
- Supports popular pools like MoneroOcean, SupportXMR, etc.
4. Process Injection & Evasion
- Injects into legitimate processes (e.g., svchost.exe).
- Bypasses essential antivirus detection.
5. Persistence Mechanisms
- Adds itself to Windows startup.
- Creates scheduled tasks for auto-restart.
6. Low CPU Usage Mode
- Can throttle mining to avoid detection (e.g., 30% CPU usage).
- Makes the computer less sluggish to avoid suspicion.
7. Remote Configuration & Updates
- Can be controlled via C&C (Command & Control) server.
- Some versions allow dynamic pool switching.
8. Fake Error Messages (Social Engineering)
- Displays fake “Windows Update” or “Adobe Flash” errors to mask high CPU usage.
