I've been using Maxthon browser on my smartphone some years ago and I loved it.
While it's interesting to see Maxthon in the news again and even more interesting to see it linked to crypto world, I don't see the benefit of this mining:
- The normal computers have limited resources, and using the CPU for mining will not be optimal. Specific miners, maybe GPU miners would mine more/better and as soon as somebody will start GPU-mining the CPUs/browses will get virtually nothing.
- If you make the browser mine, some antiviruses will flag it as malware which may alter the reputation of Maxthon browser.
Is something am I missing in this?
