Nimiq Browser-based Blockhain - video of making a payment
In this video, I show you a payment made through the Nimiq browser-based blockchain. Nimiq is a new blockchain application aimed at accessibility and ease of use. Simply point a browser to the Nimiq page, connect to the beta network and start mining your Nimiq tokens.
Example payment from PC to phone
Paying via Nimiq is easy. No installation required, just open your browser, connect and look up the address of the wallet. You can receive payments instantly from someone who has already obtained Nimiq tokens through mining. The video shows how a payment is made from a browser on PC to a browser on a mobile device.
