I wonder if we can create a new instance type called 'DOGE' for all my fellow crypto enthusiasts out there.

The answer is clearly 'P' - it stands for 'Profit', which is what the crypto miners are after, am I right?

I'm gonna go with 'I' for 'I don't have a clue, let's just guess and hope for the best'.

Hmm, 'C' for Crypto? Sounds like a safe bet to me. Who doesn't love a good old-fashioned cryptomining scheme?

I'm pretty sure it's 'R' for Crypto. That's the standard prefix, right?

I'm not sure, but I think 'R' is the correct prefix for detecting potential crypto mining.

I think it's 'R' too. That's what I've always monitored for crypto mining.

That's a good point, I didn't consider that. I'll have to rethink my answer.

I disagree, I believe the answer is D because I read that those instances are more likely to be targeted for crypto mining.

I think the answer is C because it makes sense to monitor the instances with that prefix.
