Just ask here if you need some test coins. I already mined a first block.

I'd be interested in testing: A01059323A68F78E9A9B638C3D9553858EC44ED4

Interestingly, I'm getting a significantly higher hash rate in Chrome than in Firefox (12,000 vs. 600). This is despite the fact that Firefox has a higher priority on my OS (High vs. Normal) and they're both using the same amount of CPU. What hash rates are you seeing on your machine/browser?

Before anyone gets too excited because the page doenst make this clear, you are all mining on the Test block chain, not the release block chain, the coins are worthless, they are fine for playing around with though.

Can you please use a different platform to perform this instead of polluting this comment thread?

I think the disclaimer was pretty obvious with this.

There is a disclaimer under the "Connect to Network" button stating "Testnet Mining does not create permanent Nimiqs." Do you think this we should make that more prominent?
