How does this compare to Firefox's inbuilt crypto miner blocker?

Mozilla has implemented a crypto miner blocker in Firefox in version 67.0 - https://blog.mozilla.org/futurereleases/2019/04/09/protections-against-fingerprinting-and-cryptocurrency-mining-available-in-firefox-nightly-and-beta/

Other than being newer and probably not having as complete as a blocklist as MinerBlock, how does this feature compare to MinerBlock?

Minerblock not only uses domain blacklisting, but it also scans the HTML DOM for known cryptomining function calls and kills them. That is the difference.
