WebCL Firefox Bitcoin Miner
- mthreat 15y agoI wonder how many bitcoins Google could get if they cranked up all their CPU power towards mining...
- milkshakes 15y agoprobably fewer than they could get if they included this script on their properties
- heyrhett 15y agoI doubt it, since most people who go to www.google.com probably don't have the Nokia WebCL add-on installed.
- milkshakes 15y agogive it 6 months
- sp332 15y agoMost people who go to google.com don't stay there very long.
- milkshakes 15y agowhat about the ones who go to gmail.com?
- heyrhett 15y agoAt first, this miner said it was giving me 200KH/s. Then, I turned on bitcoind and ran Diablo-Miner, and it gave me 8.6MH/s. I turned off Diablo-Miner, went back to the webcl miner, and then it started reading 8.6/8.8MH/s too. I'm not sure exactly what's going on. It's pretty cool though that at least for a little while, WebCL thinks it can do as well as Diablo-Miner on my machine.
- wcoenen 15y agoHere's a calculator to convert your MHash/s rating to bitcoin/day: http://www.alloscomp.com/bitcoin/calculator.php http://www.alloscomp.com/bitcoin/calculator.php But keep in mind that the reward for a block is currently 50BTC, so if the calculator shows 0.1 BTC/day it will take 500 days on average to get anything. Considering that the difficulty will increase rapidly, that actually means you will most likely never see any BTC from this. edit: tried it, looks like this is actually group mining. The author is collecting all the BTC, and promises to give you your fair share each day. He should disclose how much he is pocketing for himself.
