LikeCoin (LIKE) Foundation will assign over 3 million LIKE budget in the coming three months to realise the concept of Proof of Creativity (PoC) mining. After the success of the previous promotion campaign to Medium writers, LikeCoin Mining Beta1 starts today, and will distribute 10,000 LIKE everyday for 12 days from 6th Aug.


The debut of new LikeButton

Here is an introduction of the new LikeButton

  • Readers can “Like” an article for free or pay LIKE directly through the LikeButton. However, only the former is supported on mobile at this moment.
  • To include a LikeButton on Medium posts, first register a LikeCoin ID.
  • Assuming your LikeCoin ID is markzukerberg, your LikeButton link will be https://button.like.co/markzuckerberg. Note that the LikeButton link is different from LikeCoin Widget used in the previous campaign.
  • Just add the link to your Medium Post, usually at the end of the article, to make LikeButton appear. Do not forget to hit ENTER.

************************ LIKE vs Like ************************
To prevent confusion, let's distinguish between LIKE and Like:LIKE, all capital letter L-I-K-E, is the symbol for LikeCoin on crypto-exchanges, just like HKD stands for Hong Kong Dollar and TWD stands for New Taiwan Dollar. LIKE is exchangeable with fiat currency such as USD. For example, 100 LIKE stands for 100 LikeCoin.Like, with the capital letter L, stands for the Like a reader gives to a creative work. It is free for readers and will help the writer mine LIKE from the mining pool. Every user can Like the same article 5 times most. The Likes given by readers logged in with LikeCoin ID have a heavier weight than others.So, "giving Like" and "giving LIKE" mean differently. Make sure you do not mix them up. Giving Like is similar to like a post on Facebook or clap an article on Medium; while giving LIKE means giving out LIKE from one's wallet.
