No, it is not listed on exchanges; this is an alpha project right now and it will be a while before it goes into beta.

I agree with you. I was what you call a faucet jumper; I would jump from a Bitcoin faucet to another Bitcoin faucet to a Litecoin faucet to a Dogecoin faucet to a Dash faucet and several others in late 2017, and then there are all those faucets affiliated with Coinpot, and with those I was able to exchange everything (Litecoin, Dogecoin, etc.) into Bitcoin on the fly. I'm one of those people trying to take the don't-invest challenge, as I call it. I've been mining the two major browser-only, no-fancy-hardware-needed coins, which are JSEcoin and Hadron, for quite a while now; JSEcoin since November 2017, Hadron since November 2018, and I am an echelon 1 on Hadron. I am also a big fan of basic income coins; SwiftDemand, Manna, Basic Income Token, Palai; basically those are like faucets, except the faucet is the sole way that those coins are distributed (well, maybe Manna has mining as well), but yeah, there's a whole genre of cryptocurrency called UBI coins (universal basic income coins), and that's how they're distributed; a massive faucet/airdrop for everyone, everyone claims once a day, or with Manna, once a week. So I've been taking the don't-invest, don't-buy-any-fancy-hardware challenge, or as I call it, the Nifty Crypto Challenge, so I know what you're saying about really easily mineable coins like Hadron. And speaking of Hadron, have you tried any of their dApps yet? You can spend ten Hadron to have an AI process an image and bring back data; it's really nifty!

I totally agree! Hadron is one of my favorite blockchain technologies right now; I always said, if Ethereum has smart contracts, Hadron has genius contracts, because of the AI involved. I even tried some of their AI contracts; the ones that are currently available can take an image and process it; unfortunately you can't upload the image to Hadron, I had to put my images on Dropbox and give the contract a link, but it's a pretty good app they have going! I signed up for Hadron last May, before the big Hubble Space Telescope news broke. And because I'm totally blind, I managed to convince them that I didn't need to join Telegram; Telegram is a challenge for us blind folks; I'll stick to Facebook, Twitter and Bitcointalk, thanks. But I've praised Hadron plenty on Facebook and Twitter, and by the end of 2018 I was in echelon 1! I have over a thousand Hadron, and I really hope that, with this Hubble Space Telescope partnership, that Hadron will become one of the big coins by 2020 or at least 2021. The mining process is my favorite. Even though Ethereum is a smart contract platform, the mining is still just proof of work (and I hear they plan to go to staking in a future update). Well, the Hadron mining process is the actual computation required to make the AI programs work, and I think that is the way "mining" on a smart contract platform should work; the miners perform the computations required to run the dApps; Hadron got it right! So I am glad I was able to sign up in May, get approved in November, and rise up the ranks all the way to echelon 1 in December; Hadron does everything right when it comes to a blockchain project; they have a working platform we can actually use ... and they haven't even done a token sale, at least yet! I only know a few other token sales, upcoming ICOs, etc. that have a live platform/chain already, and I am always filled with joy when a blockchain platform has a working platform already.

Yeah, I heard that! What does that even mean? A Twitter account getting audited? What does it mean for a Twitter account to get audited?

I recently heard about this coin called Palai from someone on another crypto forum that isn't Google-indexed, and when I Googled it, the main result was the website itself, and a Reddit post on a subreddit for universal basic income cryptocurrencies. Apparently, Palai is distributed to its users, a certain number of coins per day, and that number decreases as more people join the program. However, the coins are very slowly burned to encourage spending! So if you have one thousand coins and you hold them for a day, you'll find that you will only have 999.99 Palai after a few days. Apparently, this is to encourage people to transact with them. And of course, coin burning causes supply decrease, which causes scarcity, and, well, you know. But nobody is talking about this coin, even though they have a perfectly good working live platform! I've received coins through their daily airdrop, and I even watched a few fractions of a Palai just disappear because of their constant burn process. Now, I don't know if this coin will ever catch on, or if it's even legit, but how come nobody is talking about this? Neither positive nor negative; people just aren't talking about Palai! http://palai.org

I've been collecting SwiftDemand since May as well; I hope it works out. After all, there are about 500,000 members on the site now, and you'd never think a coin that's not listed on exchanges would have a platform with so many members! I have confidence that the platform will live on and that we will be able to sell our Swifts.

Glad I just discovered this on some news website! I always love it when a cryptocurrency project has some kind of web interface, be it a web dashboard, browser-based mining, a lot of sites even have a web wallet, but any kind of web-based crypto services appeal to me because of their user-friendliness. I have a dashboard now, I'm taking care of some of the airdrop missions, and I have just synced the Windows wallet with the blockchain, and I am going to try mining pretty soon; this web dashboard is great! I encourage more crypto projects to have web-based services, whether it's a web-based dashboard, wallet, miner; I love it when there's at least one web-based service tied to a coin! I hope to find out more about the difference between BLOC and popular CryptoNote/Cryptonight coins, but I already love the web dashboard.

One thing I always liked about coins like JSEcoin is that they are actively communicating with the makers of web browsers, antivirus programs, etc., to prove that they are not malicious. For example, JSEcoin; it would be very hard for some criminal to hide JSEcoin in a web page, because, the way it is designed, there's always a big ol' JSEcoin logo at the bottom of the page! With that clear logo, no criminal will get very far, because the victims will see the big ol' logo on the bottom that you have to click past! In other words, it's too transparent for any malicious intent to be effective. So that's why I like these browser-mine-specific coins better than Cryptonight miners. Especially since JSEcoin is actually talking with these security people and browser manufacturers to prove that they are better than a Cryptonight miner; that was always amazing to me.

Just so you know, the thread wasn't talking about Cryptonight coins at all. I don't like those browser miners either; the ones that mine Monero and other Cryptonight coins. The coins we are talking about are WebDollar, JSEcoin and Hadron; these three cryptocurrencies are unique because the people who invented the coins had browser mining in mind! So I will answer the original question that way; these browser miner-specific coins are a rather new invention, with Nimiq being tested in June 2017, JSEcoin in August 2017, WebDollar later in 2017, and Hadron likely came along early this year. Since they are a new concept, these coins are not really exchangeable yet. But, as easy-to-use pieces of cryptocurrency software, I give them a double thumbs up, and they are much less shady than those sneaky Cryptonight miners. For example, all websites that run the JSEcoin miner warn the user, and the CPU hashing is nice and relaxed and doesn't cause the fan to crank up, because the algorithm was built for relaxed browser mining. However, these coins, WebDollar, JSEcoin and Hadron, are not to be confused with those Cryptonight miners, these currencies were built for the browser, but unfortunately, being a new invention, people can't exchange them yet. Hope that answers the question. However, there's a light at the end of the tunnel; JSEcoin is starting its ICO on July 11! And it's better than all the other ICO's! Why? Because most ICO's just have a whitepaper; this one, JSEcoin, you can mine it and transact with it right now; they already have a working version of the program! It's just not on exchanges yet. But with this breaking news, I have a feeling it will be!

My personal favorite is one that has created its own coin, but a lot of people aren't using it because it's a new coin that can't be easily exchanged yet. The coin is called JSEcoin, and the coin was built for web mining. Yes, it uses SHA256, but it is equipped with a speed limit and a lottery system so that when a valid hash is found with a certain address, all other hashes found in the next thirty seconds don't count, and then fifty addresses for that thirty seconds are picked at random, and each gets 1 JSE. I love it because it is a nifty attempt at fair distribution of currency, it is web based, it is low power (don't want to break their speed limit!), and JSE doesn't take a cut, though some of us have willingly donated some to them. So JSEcoin has a bunch of positive attributes; their unique fair mining system, web-based, no fees when you send coins from one person to another, and you can see on the blog and Twitter that they have an extremely active development team, several ICO sites have given them a good rating, and once the ICO happens, it will be listed on exchanges. So, much like Bitcoin in 2009, it looks like one of the best coins around, but it will be a little while before people are exchanging it. That's JSEcoin.

Okay, I just discovered Motocoin a few weeks ago, and I'm not even concerned about the game (or the bot, if I do it that way) yet; I'm stuck on the wallet! The wallet won't even start synchronizing with the network! The .dat file for the blockchain doesn't grow, the block count is stuck at zero, and the log file keeps trying to connect to these node IP addresses and it says it can't find any of them, they haven't been seen in x amount of days; it's like it's a dead-node empty blockchain or something.

Do I have to fill out the "mining social proofs"? I think they are tweets, Bitcointalk posts, etc. to prove that you are serious about Hadron. Or were these an alpha version tool?

I am using a Dell laptop with an Intel I3 processor; I forget the exact speed, but it's approximately 2.5 gigahertz. I only use a laptop, not a phone, and my browser of choice is Google Chrome. I must also point something out to you, and I hope you can respect my wishes. I am totally blind, and because of the way Telegram is designed, totally blind people can not use Telegram; I hope you can respect the fact that I am blind. However, I was on Twitter today, and someone private messaged me the Telegram FAQ, so I got the code, and I have my account on the Hadron dashboard. So, I finished the Bitcointalk step just now, and someone helped me with the Hadron Dashboard account step, but please respect the fact that I am totally blind and that Telegram just plain doesn't work with our software. Facebook and Twitter is fine, Bitcointalk is fine, and even Reddit is good even though I personally don't prefer it.

So, please clarify what's wrong with the syntax of my miner batch file. I'm stuck.
The correct syntax of mine.bat file: minerd --url=http://127.0.0.1:33420 --userpass=rpc_nicecoin:a9e72a27aa3de054c49622750 I know that. So what exactly does this syntax mean? I mean, that string of letters and numbers at the end, what is that, some kind of wallet address? In other words, you're not being clear!

I don't know what the username and password are supposed to be! Here is what my config file looks like, except my wallet address is replaced with the word mywalletaddress in this example, but my actual wallet address is in the config file.
minerd --url=http://127.0.0.1:33420 --userpass=rpc_nicecoin:mywalletaddress

I started mining on January 6 before it was even called Dagger. I was just wondering, those of you who successfully mine XDAG, what hash rate are you getting? The latest CPU miner can go up to 8 MHS, and that GPU miner beta can get up to 20 MHS on my Intel graphics card. I was wondering if an Intel graphics card had any use, or if it was just about worthless.

My miner keeps giving me this: [2018-02-24 17:21:46] HTTP request failed: The requested URL returned error: 401 [2018-02-24 17:21:46] json_rpc_call failed, retry after 30 seconds

I really hope that JSEcoin will help bring some positive attention to browser mining. I think most of the negative publicity received by other miners was because of a massive CPU load on people's computers; even if JSEcoin was used maliciously by someone, it should still get positive attention, much like how bitcoin has been used for shady purposes, yet it is good as a whole. So, with CPU load being almost nothing, I hope that JSEcoin will make browser mining something that people will want to experiment with.
