Even from a pro-crypto standpoint this offering is somewhat problematic: > Once earned, they can track their earnings in their Norton Crypto Wallet, which is stored in the cloud so it cannot be lost due to hard drive failure. From https://community.norton.com/en/blogs/product-service-announcements/introducing-norton-crypto https://community.norton.com/en/blogs/product-service-announ... So your "earnings", meager as they likely will be, aren't even properly given to you. Not to mention it seems unlikely that a consumer-grade machine is going to earn enough from its share of mining to cover the energy costs. At this point you have to have some kind of extra-cheap energy source to be able to compete in mining. Although some people (e.g. me) have a flat-rate electricity bill with their apartment, so maybe some could take some advantage.
