Not really, no. Do not browser mine on your phone or laptop especially. It will age your processor very quickly. If you have a high-end computer, you can mine and it won't destroy your processor, but you will make close to nothing unless you download a dedicated miner such as this one and point your hashing power towards Nicehash.

I can only speak to my personal use, but I run it on work computers that are running regardless, and I've made about 20,000 satoshi total as of today! Been using it for a few weeks.

The mining should run at about 70% speed compared to a dedicated software miner.
(Problem is compiled c running on JS rather than compiled c running on hardware)
Cryptonight doesn't have asics yet, so it is better than sha256, or scrypt, profit wise.

I believe they use coinhive, which then takes 30% of that profits.
So you really get limited as to how much you can earn, because of the nickeling and diming.


I wasn't really asked here, but my latest site is running a promotion where we payout 200% of what Coinhive pays us. Can PM my site to anyone interested, but don't want to spam where I wasn't asked.

All in all, no. It isn't going to make you rich, or possibly even break even.
But it can be a good way to get your hands on some crypto dust without actually having to physically "pay" for it.
(You just pay with shortened hardware life/electric fees.)
