From my understanding and opinion mining will be enabled for people registered in about a month but I am thinking less but you must be registered in able to be on the activation list and will be a limited of time before they close pre ico mining registration.
I was selected for the alpha testing mining processes
I ran two types of mining
There was the set it and forget it type mining where it classified images this was so simple to mine anyone could run it
It was ran on cell phones, computers, and I believe one person ran it on a smart fridge. Very versatile. Super easy to run.
The second type of mining is more hands on where you help train the ai learning system and click classifications for stocks or crypto and then based on the information given and your general opinion you make a prediction where you think that stock price or crypto will go. You are rewarded extra for accuracy. More hands on and rewards you for skill.
There is a third type of mining announced involving Renewable energy but has not been released to alpha testing yet.
