What evidence has been found that links the crypto-mining wallets with the 1337X admins?
I think there's been comments calling out the malware that have been deleted, possibly by the admins. In addition the infected torrentes stayed up for a long while (not sure if they still are or not)
See my reply to Whiskey Pickle for the evidence.
They admit the listing existed in that statement, and there are easily accessible records of 1337x mods defending the listing prior to its deletion (such as the comment I had also provided in my post). You may need to re-read it?
I can provide additional sources if necessary.

... with this reply:
Can you see how I would misunderstand what you were talking about here?
Also, to be clear, there is no evidence one way or the other that 1337x mods took a share of the money - not what anyone here really cares about anyways. What's being put under scrutiny is the fact that they defended a listing which was clearly malware only until it gained attention on Reddit and similar.
I didn't edit shit dawg
I might have accidentally responded to the wrong comment, either way, deleted my comments since they don't apply
Literally nothing. This entire thing is one of the stupidest controversies that I've ever seen. One idiot made a wild accusation about the 1337 mods based on no evidence and apparently that was good enough for this community....we are better than this people, grow up.
See my reply to Whiskey Pickle for the evidence.
I read through the wayback link you had, but it really just sounds like admin are busy with their other lives and getting frustrated with new users spamming "trojan found" which is an extremely common thing to see from new users and they don't have time to verify everything out there. Even saying it has "unpacker.exe" wouldn't mean anything as the release was packed. Unless the wallet address can actually be tied to admin/mods, then that's just heresay.
That VitaminX user sounds shady as all hell, but that doesn't mean admin are doing backhanded deals with some users.
