Those of you who read my previous steemit post know that I'm big fan of Lisk. I knew about it's forks like Ark and Rise but I haven't heard that there exist another javascript cryptocurrency that has nothing to do with Lisk. Well there is one and it's called JSEcoin. It's some sort of alternative to Google AdSense. Webmasters have to include short javascript code in their website and then the users are mining for JSEcoin when visiting site.
You probably heard about thepiratebay trying something similar with Monero and that they shut it down fast, because users were complaining. It's not surprising since Monero was using a lot of CPU. JSEcoin on the other hand almost don't affect the CPU usage. It's about the same as if you play youtube video. It doesn't affect page load ether since it loads at the end. So I didn't find any reason why not to use it and therefore decided to give it a try a week or so ago.
The good thing about it is that is complementary with AdSense so both can run together. On average they earn about the same in a week while JSEcoin has slight advantage. AdSense earnings vary since they are dependable on clicks which are not always correlated with visits while JSEcoin depends on visit time which is more stable in my case.
There are just few thousands websites running it so mining is still quite easy comparing to what i can become with wide use. They haven't even had an ICO, so coins are aveliable to buy in presale at the moment. Cost per 1 coin is 1$, so if the price increase early mining can be quite lucrative, especially because it doesn't cost anything. If you would like to see it in action you can check my website https://vetercek.com It's a simple website for windsurfers and kiters that parse data from different websites. You can open console on your browser to see mining activity. If you are mining in minimized tab the hash rate drops 70-80%.
