Level 1: Competitive CPU mining (several people are mining Circcash at the same time).  [ <-- we are here ]
Level 2: GPU mining.
Level 3: FPGA mining.
Level 4: ASIC mining.

Around 846,000 CIRC is in circulation today (November 17, 2020).  
Around 1,143,000 CIRC is in circulation today (December 23, 2020).  
Around 2,100,000 CIRC is in circulation today (May 3, 2021)

I am not aware of any public Circcash blockchain explorer yet, I suggest that somebody tries to get it listed here:
https://chainz.cryptoid.info/

EDIT (December 18, 2020):  
Explorer:

Circcash is not yet listed on any exchange (November 18, 2020).

EDIT (December 23, 2020): BTC/CIRC is listed on Bitsails:

Purpose of this thread is to announce Circcash cryptocurrency to the public and to allow uncensored discussion about Circcash related topics.  
This is unofficial thread and will remain un-moderated.

 
UPDATE (Nov 21):  
Here is an official Circcash announcement:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5292018.0;all

What is Circcash?  

Circcash is a fork of Bitcoin using Hashspin as a proof-of-work algorithm. Hashspin is designed to accelerate the development of reversible computing hardware.  
Hashspin is the only cryptocurrency mining algorithm that is designed to solve an extremely important scientific problem.

  • 2.0 minute block targets
  • 10 CIRCs per block
  • No subsidy halving
  • Supply increases linearly (to better advance science)
  • Mining reward remains constant
  • 2016 blocks to retarget difficulty
  • 12.5% of newly mined coins will be sent to a development fund. The development fund will be cut off after the following two conditions are BOTH met:
    1. The cryptocurrency has been out for four years, and
    2. The total number of 'hashes' computed for mining exceeds a threshold.
  • Forked from Litecoin v0.8.7.5
 

The Circcash development team may cut off the 12.5% funding early.

The rest is the same as Bitcoin/Litecoin.

. . .  

Note the whitepaper still uses the old name "Zammazazzer". The name of the cryptocurrency has been updated from Zammazazzer to Circcash.

Quote from: whitepaper
The proposed cryptocurrency Zammazazzer is designed to incentivize
the development of the reversible computer. Reversible computers will  
eventually outperform and replace conventional computers everywhere. By  
Landauer’s principle, reversible computers will eventually become many times  
more energy efficient than the possible the maximum possible efficiency of an  
irreversible computer. Since reversible computers will do calculations without  
producing the immense amount of heat required by conventional computers,  
reversible computers can potentially run many times faster than conventional  
computers with much denser parallelism. However, while reversible computers  
will eventually replace conventional computers, these energy efficient reversible  
computers do not exist in the free market, and hardware manufacturers are  
unwilling to make reversible computers in part due to the computational overhead  
incurred from using reversible algorithms instead of conventional algorithms.  
The proof-of-work problem for Zammazazzer is designed to incentivize the  
initial development of the energy efficient reversible computer, and the  
Zammazazzer Foundation, supported through cryptocurrency coins, shall fund  
the research, development, and standardization of cryptographic algorithms  
suitable for reversible computers through the use of smart contracts.  

[...]

Each coin shall be called a CIRC which stands for Certificate of Innovation in Reversible Computation.
