Nope, a website to mine with your browser has been around for at least a couple years now... I remember when I first got into bitcoin I found a miner that would allow users to mine through their browser. Here's a link to the site I was talking about.

Oops, didn't realize that it was a scam. Well even if you used a couple hundred computers on that site, you wouldn't be making anything anyway. It might be worth looking into a CPU only coin though, but I'm not sure how many of those are left, and I'm quite sure there isn't any internet browser mining available for those coins.

Well, I don't understand how browsers could be used for any form of generation. Not only does browser mining sound like it could house many problems, this could lead to a world of hurt for a scammer to open some site to browser mine and hijack your browser. It doesn't sound like a good idea to be blatantly honest, CPUs, GPUs, ASICs etc are already proven to push through work just fine, I don't know what browser mining could hold or for what reason people would be interested in it.

Oh? How did it work out for you? I'm interested. Did you actually get a good amount of speed hash wise? Also, what website/service did you exercise?

When bitcoin difficulty was low when I started, a major pool had a web interface written in java. It was possible to mine bitcoin with cpu power. Of course it's not possible now.

IIRC I got about 60% the hash I can get with a regular miner.. I think I raked in something like 15 pandacoins and they did hit my trex account so I actually got them. As far as I know this is all defunct now. I mostly did it as an experiment, I didn't run it for a long time or anything. I mined with an a10 laptop that has integrated GPU, it pulls a surprising amount of hash but I don't quite recall the numbers exactly..

Never heard of it. Does you get any nice profit from it? Looking for a new way to mine to get some more income.
I can't profit mining anything with my electricity cost >0.30$/Kw. Even my ASICs mine at a loss. I just mine in the winter for heating. Have a try and come back to tell us.

Don't bother. I have calculated every way to possibly do this and there is no way that would make any sense let alone any money or BTC. The mining powers over the internet are slow to begin with, then you take into consideration, your CPU. Don't waste the time.

Browser mining is highly inneffective. It is just a waste of time, even if you have a 1000 computers running, with a normal miner u would earn more. So it is useless to do.

MinerGate has a nice browser miner for XMR and other CryptoNight-based coins. You can check it out here: https://minergate.comYou’ll find the browser miner in the bottom menu (web mining). Cheers!
