Hello 0x00’ers!

As many of you are aware, we are very fortunate to be able to offer 0x00sec as an ad-free service, hopefully forever. As this community grows, it will eventually require more and more just to keep it running.

At the present, we receive a minimal amount from Amazon affiliates, anytime you purchase something on Amazon after clicking an Amazon link on this site, we get a small comission. We also get a comission from things bought on https://swag.0x00sec.org.

Until now, it has been impossible to donate without actually buying something or donating directly. Being a badass cybersecurity community, and being one of a good number, the potential for Crypto Mining is awesome.

Introducing: Monero Mining in Javascript! Just click the “Mine” button at the top right of the navigation bar, and away you go.

You can view your stats in the javascript developer console. If you’re logged in, your total amount of hashes solved will be published to the leaderboard at https://leaderboard.0x00sec.org/

Remember, many hands make light work. If everybody turned this on while they browse the site or read an article, we can potentially be ad-free forever!

Looking forward to seeing some of you CPU-Ninja’s raising in the ranks. At the time of writing, @fraq has solved over a million hashes and is the complete leader of this race!

Note: While testing, you may have enabled Mining by accident, and so that would explain why your name might be in the leaderboard even if you didn’t click Mine earlier.

Have a good one 0x00’ers!
