As always, if an MLM company is not openly upfront about who is running or owns it, think long and hard about joining and/or handing over any money.
Computta Products
Computta has no retailable products or services, with affiliates only able to market Computta affiliate membership itself.

A percentage of mined cryptocurrency is shared among Computta affiliates who run their client.

Residual commissions on earned bitcoin are paid out via a unilevel compensation structure.
A unilevel compensation structure places an affiliate at the top of a unilevel team, with every personally recruited affiliate placed directly under them (level 1):
If any level 1 affiliates recruit new affiliates, they are placed on level 2 of the original affiliate’s unilevel team.

If any level 2 affiliates recruit new affiliates, they are placed on level 3 and so on and so forth down a theoretical infinite number of levels.
Computta cap payable unilevel levels at five, with commissions paid out as a percentage of bitcoin paid to affiliates across these five levels:
level 1 (personally recruited affiliates) – 10%levels 2 and 3 – 5%level 4 – 3%level 5 – 2% Joining Computta

The big question here is whether or not Computta are actually using their distributed computing client to conduct cryptocurrency mining, or whether it’s being used for something more nefarious.
https://goo.gl/8BLYF7
One possible candidate is DDOS attacks.
Typically the biggest challenge in creating a DDOS botnet is installing malicious code on target machines.
https://goo.gl/8BLYF7
Dodgy attachment emails is one (tedious) way to go about this. Promising people a cut of fees charged to access a DDOS botnet if they willingly install a client that can be remotely controlled is another.
https://goo.gl/8BLYF7
Whether this is happening in Computta or not is unclear, but I’d certainly be wary.

This line from the Computta Terms and Conditions suggests unsolicited spam might be taking place in the background:

Computta reserves the right to refuse any site/user entry into the Computta Affiliate Program based on site content or promotion methods.

A legitimate distributed computing cryptocurrency mining network would have nothing to hide. Yet who is running Computta is a mystery.
https://goo.gl/8BLYF7
The company website provides zero information about the company or who’s running it. So basically you’re handing over control of your device to person(s) unknown.
https://goo.gl/8BLYF7
Not the smartest move in today’s online environment.
https://goo.gl/8BLYF7
Still it doesn’t cost anything to get involved other than your electricity bill, and that’s probably going to be a big drawcard for those willing to take the risk.

If you’re one of those people, watch your internet usage when the client is running like a hawk. Making sure your anti-virus software is up to date wouldn’t hurt either.
