Starting in August, you can actually see Stellar's rocket moving upward in the direction it's pointing in the logo.

Cool infographic.

Minor correction: Paycoin was removed from CMC recently so the Dec. column shouldn't have it.

I think the cert expired or something. I wouldn't worry about OP or his website, he's one of the (very few) good guys in alts.

The BEL-EPA Certificate Authority Root cert isn't in the browser's list of pre-approved (commercial) CAs.

A (randomly-chosen) SSL cert checking service reports everything pretty much as expected: http://www.networking4all.com/en/support/tools/site+check/report/?fqdn=minkiz.co&protocol=https

http-over-ssl is rapidly becoming a matter of basic communications privacy rather than anything to do with “trust”. The site uses mod_gnutls' Server Name Indication (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Server_Name_Indication) to enable https connections to a small number of web apps running off've a single machine/IP address.

A self-signed CA cert avoids the charges imposed by the pre-approved commercial jackals certificate authorities such as GoDaddy.

The connection will be trusted if I pay for a GoDaddy-signed cert but that's a definition of “trusted” that sticks in my craw.

I shall leave the Paycoin entry as is, if that's alright by you, as I don't wish to introduce a spurious sense of accuracy.

In order to reflect the ad hoc nature of the archive.org polling cycle I used a “first convenient coinmarketcap.com index page from 2014-MM stashed in archive.org” selection algo. In consequence, it obviously it raises the question: if a randomly-chosen day isn't considered accurately representative, then what's the “proper” strategy to take, assuming we have a complete record?

And obviously, I need to put more effort into bending the gnutls technology to my will.

For the interim, here's an accessible version:

I don't wish to introduce a spurious sense of accuracy.

But I do feel compelled to update the graphic (done) to correct a transcription error in which Fuelcoin2's ”FC2” trading symbol has become confused with Firecoin2's “FC2” trading symbol.

(I'm not entirely convinced that the FuelCoin2 FC2 symbol isn't just a bit of wishful thinking by those concerned  --- the FuelCoin2 github repos source for src/qt/bitcoinunits.cpp is empty, as are many others in the repos.)
