You run fake ads claiming that users can get income from just keeping their browser open, you trick them into installing and using a browser that also pushes paid search results to them, you use their CPU at 90% all the time to mine monero, and when the user finally quits because he realizes he will not make more than 1$ a month even with the latest gaming laptop you get all his earning,s it won't be much for one user, just a few cents but multiply that by a million who got tickets and there is a bit of revenue. Add all the income from pushing apps and search results and ads to him and this is how this thing will keep going forever.
Didn't wait for too long and I removed it immediately after a minute or two. I heard a noisy sound inside of my laptop and whenever I hear that, I know that something huge is running in my laptop that it requires lot of memory. Anyway, I don't also think that this is a good way to earn Bitcoins
Most likely you had your laptop on performance setting and it went full CPU usage, and full fan speed.
Anyhow unlikely that the earnings would have covered your power bill, a Ryzen 9 would rarely earn you 40 cents a day.
