  One possible solution is to add an exception for your cryptocurrency mining software in avast antivirus. To do this, open avast antivirus and go to the settings. Look for the 'Exceptions' or 'Exclusions' section and add the folder or file path of your mining software to the list of exceptions. This should prevent avast from blocking your mining software while still keeping your computer protected from other threats.

  You can try running your cryptocurrency mining software in a virtual machine (VM) or sandbox environment. This way, avast antivirus won't be able to interfere with it. There are several virtualization software available, such as VirtualBox or VMware, that you can use to create a virtual machine and run your mining software inside it. Just make sure to install avast antivirus on the host machine to keep it protected.
