[ANN][NIM] - Nimiq - The Browser Based Blockchain

[NotAnExit]

I'm a little disappointed. This isn't for the little guy! Easy web based idea turns into a disaster when all you can do is pool mine and wait and hope you earn something. Great start but I think the non savvy people will walk away and take their power to something they know they can be sure on! Wish I was wrong and hope things change! I will keep watching. Love the map though!!!

Mining with your browser is indeed possible in a very efficient way but it is mostly an onboarding tool that demonstrates how simple it is to interact with the Blockchain without installing any software. Dedicated servers will always mine more efficiently than, let's say your mobile or laptop. So you can still mine and earn some NIM (just like with a faucet) but if you are serious about mining you should consider installing a native nimiq node for your OS, is not that hard either .

Transparency Report

This process of re-evaluating the overarching Nimiq identity aims at communicating a single, more concise message and even more importantly at allowing to communicate a clear ‘feeling’ of what Nimiq represents. This may affect everything from the Nimiq logo to the way we plan releases and new features. Read our latest blog post: Communication Hackathon

I suspect the devs dumping and enjoying the life on the beach....

Weird, it was such a good project.

Maybe and hopefully I'm wrong

We cannot dump even if we wanted to (not that we want to). All our NIMs are locked in a vested account for 1 year Min.

You don't need to worry, everything that happens on the market right now is difficult to predict. Improved marketing performance and technically, we can say it is not enough if this sentiment still occurs. hopefully in the future Nimiq will develop better.

I'm interested especially after seeing the site details since your main post needs some work.

I was investing in Brave. it is a really good project. But this one. In my point of view it is a bad one.

Nimiq is doing fine. Although the market is slow, activity is still growing: https://medium.com/@Symphonys/the-nimiq-community-update-momentum-ddba08b93f40?source=user_profile---------4------------------

Somebody made an url shortener, with a Nimq mining element involved.

The general idea is that you shorten an URL via the application at: https://shortnim.ml/

The person clicking the link will be directed to a shortnim page that loads the Nimiq miner and mines a number of shares before continuing. These shares are attributed to the person that created the link. More specifically, the shares are shares in a Nimiq mining pool, resulting in NIM payouts in the end.

As creater of the shortlink, you can specify the nimiq address that receives (in the end) the NIMs mined and the url to shorten.

If you want to give it a try: https://shortnim.ml/r#k1z2x

I guess it won't be useful in practice because the time needed to mine a single share is too long for people to accept this delay. But is crafted fairly well.
If you use it for a link that people find helpful/valuable (like a link to the latest Nimiq Community update on Medium.com), it could work ok.

Actually this is a good idea. Nice project.

Someone at Reddit suggested this could be useful for file sharing sites. Indeed!

Indeed! They are always searching for ways to make money.

hello someone explain me what happens with this token?
if I understand you correctly, Net will disappear to be replaced by Nim? but why, that she is the reason. thank you

Just one question.
Are you here only for speculation and money-making, or do you really follow the project? I think that in the second case, you would not ask this question.
This is obvious, any ICO does that: they create a token for the ICO, and once the project is ready to be released, they convert it into real tokens of the project's cryptocurrency. Maybe you should read a little more.

why are you answering like that?
 he asks a simple question that I asked here months ago and no one from this forum was able to answer me at the time.
 You take for whom to have the big head! ..
not all icos do not change tokens or convert them before marketing otherwise it would be a real mess.
Just answer or do not answer but let people do what they want, trade, speculate or ask questions .. thank you

Nimiq prolonged end of swap to 31 October!

grace period until Oct 31 has been established.

If you still didnt swap your NET tokens, it is your last chance. KYC is required.
