Step-By-Step, with Q&A - scarpal5 - Dec 17, 2019

New guy. Hi everyone.

As with anything worth learning, there seems to be no cookbook on how to construct a botnet that fits specific needs; however I read about how Oscar Salazar and Rob Ragan from Bishop Fox created a "White Hat" botnet for mining LiteCoin in 2014, by creating 1,000 emails, connecting them to cloud servers for CPU sharing.

As far as I can tell, here is the sequence:
1. Create zombie bots
2. Issue commands from/onto cloud
3. ????
4. Profit

Can someone please help me fill in the blanks here
