I sincerely don't understand what "monitoring" means here...

Good question, now I'm not so sure. I would have expected the malware to detect Bitcoin addresses based on the format, instead of based on a very long list of known addresses. It's quite easy to know if a certain string is a Bitcoin address.

Linux is the king of servers, and the market share is near zero on desktops.

From loyce.club last month:
Windows 63.2%
Linux 17.2%
Macintosh 1.6%
iOS 4.4%
Unknown 13.3%

Meanwhile, 4.1% of all pages was loaded from Windows XP (I'm not sure if Tor-browsers still identify themselves as Windows XP), 23.8% Windows 7 and 33.8% Windows 10.
And 3.9% of the users use Android, which is counted as Linux.

People interested in crypto are usually more advanced in IT and are difficult to consider as ordinary users. I also want to note that if you consider Android as Linux, it would be logical and iOS + MacOS should also be considered as Linux, because they also have common roots. I'm talking about Linux desktop, such as Ubuntu. Market success of Android is difficult to question.
