But cryptomining in browsers is highly inefficient. No user likes their laptop's or desktop machine's fans going crazy when visiting a site. Regardless if the reason is cryptomining or some stupid javascript code. Google should be much more concerned about stuff like BAT (Basic Attention Token).

Without ad blockers my fan frequently kicks in from flash/js ads. I frequently have to kill tabs like YouTube and even Reddit for hitting high cpu just from doing dumb stuff. I still visit those sites anyway.
