"Not every #digitalCurrency is mineable like #BTC. Some #cryptocurrencies are created with the entire supply released all at once, in which case the total supply is either held or in circulation and there is no way to “mine” or mint new coins.

Some examples of non-mineable digital currencies are #Ripple #IOTA #NEM #NEO #Qtum #Omisego #Lisk #Stratis #Waves and #EOS ."
