#3I'm sure it's been covered to death already, but wow, this really ought to kill user's batteries. I'm not sure how I feel about this concept.

#4Hard to take this seriously with a mistake right on the front page:
> It's the cheapest miner on the market: 85% to you - 15% to Coinerra
A rapid search turns up crypto-loot.com with 88% payout. That said, it's good to see more actors in this space. Just please get your facts straight!

#5So this takes 15% fee vs 30% for Coinhive. With almost non-existant barrier to entry, it seems like commission would be driven down to what traditional mining pool cuts (1% or less)

#6> You are running Vue in development mode.
haha
Anyways, it's time for a miner blocker browser plugin I guess, this sucks!

I don't see the problem as long as you warn your users before making them explicitly start the miner to receive stuff.

This doesn't have an API though so I don't really understand how you would use it for rewards. With Coinhive you can verify the number of solved hashes per user server-side.

That feels like the problem to me--there's no incentive for a website to do so instead of simply mining without the user's consent.

It only sucks if you use it without user-consent. Sadly a lot of sites probably will, which is why a blocker sounds reasonable.
