Nope.


Disclaimer on their testnet page:
You are connecting to the Nimiq Beta Testnet. Testnet Mining does not create permanent Nimiqs.
The Testnet and your Nimiq balance may be reset at any time until the release of the Nimiq Mainnet.
Note that mining on mobile devices drains your battery.

I reserve russian translation. Looks like interesting project. I remember that long time ago I saw similar idea somewhere here on the forum...

Now, the blocks are real or are on a Testnet?
Can i mining and then exchange (in august) or not?

Nice！

If you need Chinese translation, I can help.

All my best guyz, Vive Nimiq !

Fully quote.
Is there any road map? Future development?

Info on website.

@Dev

In order to mine: it is a question of just click "mine" and that's it?

From the medium article:

The project look interesting, but with a sha256 mining algo, you won't mine for long in the browser.

edit: looks like it won't be sha256 for the mainnet

How do you know it's an interesting project there is no information about it other then one big picture? Do you have something we dont'?

I'm interested especially after seeing the site details since your main post needs some work.
So I'll help you out since I can see there will be many that will find this project exciting.  

I copied down below some of the information from the main site: https://nimiq.com/

Roadmap
Quo vadis, Nimiq?

Initial Research + Experiments
July - Dec 2016
Researched state-of-the-art web-based Blockchain technology and recognized the untapped potential.


First Prototypes of Blockchain
January - February 2017
Developed the first proof-of-concept of browser-based Blockchain in only 1000 lines of ES6 code.


Alpha Version of Blockchain
March - June 2017
Excited by these results formed a top-notch team, developed the first feature-complete alpha version, and launched a private Beta Testnet.


Launch Public Testnet + Ecosystem
June 2017
On June 2, launched public Beta Testnet, and the world's first browser-based Blockchain came alive.


Token Sale
June 2017
To fund further development of the protocol and ecosystem we will announce Nimiq's public token sale in June.

Complete Blockchain + Ecosystem
Q4 2017
Implement ASIC-resistance and infrastructure for the Lightning Network and P2P-Exchange. Build a strong community.

Launch Mainnet + Ecosystem
December 2017
Publish the official Genesis Block and launch the official Nimiq Mainnet.

Harden + Expand the Ecosystem
2018
This is where the real fun begins.

I think it's a very interesting project. I reserve the translation in Spanish if you need it.

mind to add some information about what you are trying to post, what is this all about?
better to hire someone who will post for you to make a presentable ANN with good graphics and design.

IMPORTANT Security Announcement: Nimiq and its team members WILL NOT post security relevant links in any channels or official communication. To be safe from scams and fraud, ONLY trust information or links you find by first going to https://nimiq.com as SINGLE AND SECURE POINT OF ENTRY (manually enter https://nimiq.com in the address bar of your browser window).

Our official communication will always and only ask you to first go to https://nimiq.com and describe where to go from there to perform a certain action






 



As the first blockchain built as native to the web platform, Nimiq lowers that barriers to entry for blockchain technology and makes it significantly more accessible for the mainstream.


Current available cryptocurrencies are complicated to use and counterintuitive for the average person. Further decentralization is difficult if access to blockchain technology is limited to technically skilled people.


 
Nimiq is designed to be used by everybody


Nimiq is the only blockchain created and designed specifically for mainstream adoption.

Features of conventional blockchain that inhibit mass adoption:

• Blockchain data around 100 GB, which means synchronization time could take up to an entire day
• Software installation is absolutely necessary
• At least 10 minutes for transactions and high cost in micro payments

Nimiq is designed with simplicity and mainstream adoption in mind:

Nimiq dramatically reduces the amount of download data required to sync by using NIPOPOWs and the mini blockchain scheme: Nano clients synchronize in seconds with any device that supports a recent Browser. Nimiq is written in JavaScript, which is the native language of the world wide web, so no additional software installation is required.
 




The Nimiq Protocol enables an easy-to-use ecosystem running directly in your browser without the need of installing additional software--in line with our vision of widespread accessibility and adoption.




The Nimiq Miner can be used by anyone with a modern browser. Browser mining pools provide a steady reward for devices with low hashpower. Installation packages are provided for Windows and Linux.



The Nimiq Safe is accessible by the web, including support for Ledger Hardware Wallets (in approval process).




Account avatars (Identicons) help the user visually distinguish one account from another. Each account is identified by an IBAN-like account number that has the ability of detecting misspellings. Both features are designed to protect users from typos and scams.


 

• Block time: 1 minute (inspired by the results of "On the Security and Performance of Proof of Work Blockchains").
• Total supply: 21 billion tokens divisible by 10⁵ resulting in 21e14 satoshis, identical to Bitcoin.
• Block reward: Starting from 4405 NIM and decreasing in a curved fashion—inspired by Monero and Cryptonote—until 4000 satoshi have reached. The Remaining NIM will be rewarded in a linear fashion until the total supply.
• Max Block size: 140 kB
• Difficulty adjustment: Each Block.

As established and promised by the creators, there are two accounts vesting over 10 years with 2% and 2.5% respectively of total final amount of NIM:
