Bitminer.io says that it's browser miner works for "free", which should be understood as "scam" in general. So even if you want to try this (don't), just wait half a day because then I can check if they allow withdrawals.

My laptop is running this website. I went to the website and clicked on the mining button. Few minutes in and the satoshis are piling up...



Can you mine via browser without a script, or without anything at all running in the background? WebRTC is disabled, all scripts/flash/etc are disabled. Disabled in the browser options and by extensions to prevent WebRTC leakage (WebRTC Control) and block all scripts in general (uBlock and Antiminer).

Tasklist however says it uses 4,7% of my GPU at the moment.

Anyone with a better understanding of this who can enlighten me ^^ ?

Probably a fake number they generated to appear as it's live in your wallet.

Yes it's fake for sure, it's probably just a timer. Because at this rate I would earn 5-6 USD a day, by only using 2-5% of my onboard GPU. This would be a goldmine, and nobody gives away free gold.

But I need the fake withdrawal so I can file a complaint @ econsumer.gov/#crnt Tongue

100% guaranteed to be a Scam

It takes around 50,000 GPUs running at 100% to mine the same as a recent ASIC miner.
So oddly enough, you'd make 1/50,000th of what you'd make with a recent ASIC miner.
Typically at the moment a 12TH/s ASIC miner will make about 0.0013 BTC a day ... so divide that by 50,000 and you get nothing Smiley

They are masters of efficiency at BitMiner.

If we'd both buy the 5 BTC upgrade and one of us refers to the other at the buy, then one would become a millionaire within 50 days, and the other within 100 days.

Luckily these addresses are still empty.
