Ethereum mining fix for NVIDIA GPUs was a malware in disguise
As crypto-related crimes have maintained their peak in the past year, it is essential to note that even mining equipment is not resistant to these crimes. As mentioned in a recent report from The Verge, a heavily advertised and sought-after ability to unlock to the full potential of the Nvidia RTX graphics cards (GPUs) on GitHub was actually malware in disguise.
GPU fix turned malware
Nvidia, an American multinational technology company that designs graphics processing units for the gaming and professional markets, had recently put the "Lite Hash Rate" in their newer GPUs that prevented cryptocurrency miners from buying the GPUs for mining purposes. This is because these GPUs were actually released for gaming purposes.As a result, "Nvidia RTX LHR v2 Unlocker," a fix capable of cracking the "Lite Hash Rate" software, was mentioned by PC Gamer and Tom's Hardware. However, in a recent turn of events, on the Red Panda mining channel, the team of ChumpchangeXD and Y3TI revealed that this fix actually contained a handful of viruses and that the tool was not capable of implementing the task that it was advertised for.
As per The Verge, "the tool doesn't even perform its namesake function of removing the cap on the hash rate for your GPU. Instead, it apparently infects your system and causes a host of other unusual behavior, like high CPU usage, checking for system drives, and other things."
Crypto mining
Cryptocurrency mining popularity has reached its peak in the last year, with software giant Intel releasing a new mining chip coupled with a powerful 3,600-watt mining rig. The firm also stated that the underlying BMZ1 chips are the cleanest and most potent on the market. On the other hand, the activity has attracted a lot of attention because of its harmful effects on the environment.On the other hand, the governor of Hungary's central bank, György Matolcsy, says that the "EU should ban crypto trading and mining," as Cryptonary reported.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I trust Cryptonary's calls?
Yes. We've consistently identified winners across multiple cycles. Bitcoin under $1,000, Ethereum under $70, Solana under $10, WIF from $0.003 to $5, PopCat from $0.004 to $2, SPX blasting past $1.70, and our latest pick has already 200X'd since June 2025. Everything is timestamped and public record.
Do I need to be an experienced trader or investor to benefit?
No. When we founded Cryptonary in 2017 the market was new to everyone. We intentionally created content that was easy to understand and actionable. That foundational principle is the crux of Cryptonary. Taking complex ideas and opportunities and presenting them in a way a 10 year old could understand.
What makes Cryptonary different from free crypto content on YouTube or Twitter?
Signal vs noise. We filter out 99.9% of garbage projects, provide data backed analysis, and have a proven track record of finding winners. Not to mention since Cryptonary's inception in 2017 we have never taken investment, sponsorship or partnership. Compare this to pretty much everyone else, no track record, and a long list of partnerships that cloud judgements.
Why is there no trial or refund policy?
We share highly sensitive, time-critical research. Once it's out, it can't be "returned." That's why membership is annual only. Crypto success takes time and commitment. If someone is not willing to invest 12 months into their future, there is no place for them at Cryptonary.
Do I get direct access to the Cryptonary team?
Yes. You will have 24/7 to the team that bought you BTC at $1,000, ETH at $70, and SOL at $10. Through our community chats, live Q&As, and member only channels, you can ask questions and interact directly with the team.
