Newbie here. I found this chrome extension circulating on Social Media Getcryptotab and many are using this to mine bitcoin. I already installed this extension and so far I already generate 0.000000165700 BTC in one night alone.

I wonder if any one here already withdraw from this website. Any reviews and feedback?



Take a look at their own recent payouts page: https://getcryptotab.com/en/journal/

All the payments are in the thousands of satoshi. If they are a legitimate service that is actually mining bitcoins with your computing power then it'll just mean that your computer is getting severely lagged and overheated for virtually no rewards.

Also, your electricity costs will pretty much not going to be covered.

You made a good decision to stop using it. There are no benefits whatsoever, especially as it could even be a hidden virus or not even pay you when you have just made enough for minimum withdrawal.
So basically scam right? Even they allow you to withdraw it is still not enough to harness the actual fee that cost your mining service right?
I see there are tons of risk in involving to a chrome extension thanks for the warning 0.000000165700BTC a night is not enough and not worth a try.

For a newbie, that amount of satoshis in a night would be massive because the calculation in his head would be, if I can get this in one night, how much more would I get in about say 30 nights and in few months, I could have 1 btc by practically not doing anything forgetting that the implicit cost (just like a faucet site, that takes your time, data, deceive you to click on ads, solve annoying puzzles while they are made richer) is more than that, and the increment won't happened  on a multiplying by nights basis. If the site is not scam, they would set a minimum payout point which would either frustrate you to leave, if otherwise they would make you keep your eyes on the prize for them to have enough time to either cause damage to the system or the users by exploiting information just like someone outlined earlier.
