It's better to steer clear of this tarpit.

I also lean towards a total ban for reasons stated by multiple people. But before cfarm-admins has a consensus/conclusion, as the maintainer of cfarm420~430, I would like to unilaterally enforce this temporary rule on cfarm420~430 at my discretion:

Any cpu-intensive process related to cryptocurrency will be killed, unless a "cryptocurrency fee" is prepaid to me: USD$400 per month per user.

The reason for this rule is simple: even though cfarm420~430 run on 100% renewable energy at my tiny apartment in Tokyo, the cost of electricity (around USD$400/month, provided by TEPCO) takes about 20% of my gross income, which is obviously a lot. I see "hosting for cfarm" as my investment of the good of the society, but in the case of cryptocurrency, I have no confidence to say that. On the other hand, access to cfarm420~430 for only $400/month is a great deal comparing to popular "cloud services".

Cheers,
