Coinhive
Description
Coinhive was a service that allowed website owners to earn cryptocurrency, primarily Monero, by using their visitors` computer processing power for mining. Users visiting a website with Coinhive enabled would unknowingly have their CPU resources used to mine cryptocurrency, potentially slowing down their devices. Coinhive faced criticism for its opaque practices and ethical concerns regarding user consent. The company ceased operations in 2019.
