However, with dedicated hosting plans.. why not) Title: Re: mining on virtual web servers Post by: W-M on April 06, 2013, 07:12:55 PM Heh, I've been busy working on a PHP/javascript miner for the last week. The first version is almost finished. Of course it will run extremely slow(at least on free webservers), but as a proof-of-concept I think it's interesting.
Does anyone have any numbers about the cost of a dedicated hosting plan compared to the profit you will be able to mine on it? In other words, is it worth it?

I kinda doubt that webservers are cheaper than a PC you just buy. |
