I doubt it's mining Bitcoins specifically, people in the thread only mention CPU usage so far. I found this[0] on the epicscale site, which let's you query for things like the hashrate of a Node, but it doesn't seem to work. So while not bitcoins, I would guess they are mining some altcoin rather than being a botnet or something else. [0] http://report.epicscale.com/ http://report.epicscale.com/
