The very first JSE newsletter was released early yesterday which broke the news that the first 1000 users of the platform was reached and the number of users was increasing rapidly. Check out the stats at the time of this posting below -
Also in the newsletter was that the JSECoin.com site was being updated today (monday 11th September).
After checking out the new site features i thought i would give a quick update. The platform mining area has been updated to include an adjustable hash rate slider. This allows you to mine for coins via the JSE site itself as before but now you can actually increase the difficulty to use more than the standard CPU power.
I instantly maxed out the slider and found that my hash rate was approxmately 5 to 7 times greater than before (obviously this is more stressfull on the CPU)
Also update is the Publisher area. The publisher area is where you obtain stats on your websites earnings. I currently have about 6 sites earning JSE for me and its now much easier to see which site i making the best return.
One downside of the recent platform update is the reduction of referal earnings per signup, previously you could get 10 coins per person that you refered, this has now been decreased to just 3.5 coins.

Thanks for sharing this. Very helpful :)
It seems like the hashing is faster but getting paid for it is much much slower. Did you notice this?
I did notice after a while of running at the same hash rate as before but then after upping the rate I manged to mine more coins sucessfully than before. Obviously as time goes on the difficulty will increase
I am happy I was one of those who joined JSECoin early. They dropped the referral rates to 3.5 from 10 coins, but I still managed to get a bit over 100 coins so far. Looking at the numbers of coins in circulation, though... I'm holding peanuts :)) Better than nothing though!
Indeed, me too. I managed to get a few referers at 10 points but am still constantly mining
