Blockchains and cryptocurrencies disrupted the conversion of energy into amedium of exchange. Numerous applications for blockchains and cryptocurrenciesare now envisioned for purposes ranging from inventory control to bankingapplications. Naturally, in order to mine in an economically viable way,regions where energy is plentiful and cheap, e.g., close to hydroelectricplants, are sought. The possibility of converting energy into cash, however,also opens up opportunities for a new kind of cyber attack aimed at illegallymining cryptocurrencies by stealing energy.
