JSECoin is a JavaScript based blockchain (and token) which aims to replace AdSense, thus positioning themselves as a monetization alternative for webmasters. It's a relatively recent player in the crypto space.

If you follow my posts for more than 6 months, though, you are aware of it, as well as of the small ins and outs I had on Steemit (mostly out of confusion) with the JSECoin code running on steem.supply. I don't have the JSECode mining code on steem.supply anymore, but I do have it on a few other sites I manage, so I follow the project quite closely and try to stay on top of the news related to this topic.

Last week, JSECoin launched the merchant tools for the project, tools which are containing, among other packages, a plugin for WooCommerce as well. This means that if you run a WooCommerce based ecommerce site, you can already accept JSECoin tokens for your products or services.

I find this development very encouraging (wishing to have a STEEM-based merchant tool as well, but hey, let's keep keeping our fingers crossed,right?).

The token is not yet listed on exchanges and you can still mine it if you install their code on your website.

Please be aware that JSECoin is Opt-In, which means your visitors will get a nice, big, visible pop-up, informing them that if they accept, a small part of their CPU power will be used to mine the currency, as a form of payment for the site owner. It's the only Opt-In token that I know of so far, putting it in a completely different class than other projects (like clandestine Monero mining via CoinHive). They've also been whitelisted by Kaspersky antivirus last month, which means your site won't appear as "potential malware". In other words, is a very transparent and legit way of monetizing a website, if you believe in the future of JSECoin, obviously.

If you want to try it out, you can start from here.
