Malvo

An experiment to build out a platform that allows publishers to replace adds with crypto miners(monero) running on user’s browser / mobile phones. This project involved following components

• Cross compilied a monero mining app into web assembly. This involved a lot of low level stuff and forking the original miner
• Built a js sdk that allows publishers to integrate the webassembly powered monero miner on their website. It also consisted of websocket that allowed it to interact with the mining pool,
• Built an android sdk powered by rust that allowed android developers to integrate the monero miner in their android apps
• A backend to support registration of publishers and keeping track of their revenue
• A service that act as a middlelayer between monero miners running on millions of user browser and mobile phones and couple of monero mining pools.
• A desktop app that allowed publishers to calculate their revenue based on price of monero and their current daily active users.
