Nadeam Nahas-a 39-year-old former employee of the US state of Massachusett-is reportedly charged to have set up a cryptocurrency mining operation in a remote place at a local school.

Covering of the crime

according to the latest Cover , set up his crypto-miner in the basement of the Cohasset High School. The prosecutors insisted that he was devastating the facility and steel electricity worth over $ 17,000 in order to supply its 11 computers with electricity. The machines were supposedly hidden in a crawl next to a cooling system.

The police discovered the illegal affair of Nahas for the first time in December 2021 after the head of the urban institutions found that many computers and electrical cables were laid. Law enforcement agencies came together with the local IT director, who found that the 39-year-old used the machines to carry out a cryptocurrency mining operation.

Chief William Quigley from Cohasset Police Department also estimated that he had connected his powerful computers to the school's power grid.

The investigation service of the coast guard and the Ministry of Homeland Department decreased, while a successive three-month examination showed that Nahas (who returned from his job in 2022) was the main suspect of the illegal action.

He should appear in court at the beginning of this week, but did not come. The judge who led the case issued an arrest warrant against him, which means that the police are now looking for his whereabouts to put him in court.

Texas, on the other hand, has developed into a relatively affordable electricity prices, its huge territory, favorable climate conditions and crypto-friendly authorities. Riot Blockchain and other industry leaders are located in the Lone Star State.

The region also has an attractive goal for Chinese miners who began to shift their business after the Chinese government in 2021 had imposed general ban on all cryptocurrency activities.
