How to Mine XMR With Your Browser in 2026

Published August 2026 · 5 min read

Browser Mining Is Back

Browser mining used to be dismissed as slow and inefficient. But with the release of RandomX WASM, your browser can now run the same algorithm that powers Monero's proof-of-work — directly in JavaScript.

In this guide, we'll show you exactly how to mine XMR with your browser, how much you can earn, and why browser mining is the future of accessible crypto.

What Is Browser Mining?

Browser mining is the process of using your web browser to validate cryptocurrency transactions. Instead of downloading specialized software, a small WebAssembly module runs in your browser tab, using your CPU to solve cryptographic puzzles.

When you mine Monero in your browser, you're contributing to the security of the Monero network — and earning XMR in return.

How It Works (Step by Step)

Step 1: Visit a browser mining page like eon-public.pages.dev/mine

Step 2: Enter your Monero wallet address

Step 3: Click "Start Mining"

Step 4: Your browser downloads a tiny RandomX WASM module

Step 5: Your CPU begins hashing — solving mathematical puzzles

Step 6: Valid shares are submitted to the mining pool

Step 7: You receive XMR rewards in your wallet

The whole process takes about 60 seconds. No downloads. No installation. No registration.

What You Need

• A modern browser (Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Safari)
• A CPU (any modern processor — Intel, AMD, Apple Silicon)
• An internet connection
• A Monero wallet address (get one free at getmonero.org)

How Much Can You Earn?

Browser mining typically produces 5-25 H/s depending on your CPU. At current XMR prices (~$440), this translates to roughly:

• $0.01-0.05 per day per browser tab
• $0.30-1.50 per month per device
• More if you run multiple tabs or have a powerful CPU

It's not going to make you rich, but it's free money from hardware you already own.

Is Browser Mining Safe?

Yes. The mining runs entirely in your browser sandbox. We cannot access your files, camera, or any other system resources. The WASM module only performs mathematical calculations. You can close the tab anytime to stop.

Browser mining is also legal in most countries. Monero mining is not regulated, and using your own hardware to mine is perfectly fine.

Why Monero?

Monero (XMR) is the only major cryptocurrency that can be mined efficiently with CPUs. Bitcoin requires ASICs. Ethereum moved to proof-of-stake. Monero's RandomX algorithm was specifically designed for CPU mining, making it ideal for browser-based mining.

Conclusion

Browser mining is the easiest way to earn cryptocurrency. No hardware to buy. No software to install. Just open your browser, click start, and earn XMR. The 40% revenue split means you keep a fair share of what you mine.
