I hit the "Start Mining" button but nothing seems to be happening. I don't see any numbers going up or anything. What do?
Edit - Seems to be an issue in my browser (Chromium).
It's counting how many "hashes" your computer has submitted. It's basically your computer doing a math problem that has a random number in it. Using your computer's internal random number generator, it runs the math with that random number and reports the results. After a billion results get submitted, we get paid for it, and put the money towards domains, hosting, and other hard costs (devs don't get paid). With the recent increase in crypto prices, we've mined enough for about a year's worth of hosting.
If you were to donate $usd money or buy something from the shop, paypal and other banks would get a piece of the money and could potentially lock our accounts if they didn't like what they saw on our site. With mining and direct cryptocoin donations, we can operate without them.

I did that and din't understand what it was telling me ... maybe I'm just dense. It kept counting up, and I kept scratching my head. What is that amazing thing anyway?
