Google Officially Banned Crypto-Currency Mining Apps From Play Store

Apple banned the crypto-currency mining apps in the iOS App Store and Mac App Store. Google updated its privacy policies which say, We dont allow apps that mine cryptocurrency on devices. But it allows mining from the cloud but the current ban leads to stop mining on Android hardware. The ban follows a Google block on cryptomining extensions on the Chrome Web Store, following the rise in CoinHive-based in-browser miners. Cybercriminals are secretly mining crypto-mining using various malicious techniques without the users knowledge.”]
