Although Coinye’s peer-to-peer network remains active and it’s still technically possible to mine the currency, person-to-person transfers and mining activity have collapsed to the point that Coinye is basically worthless.
The long term positive coherence relationship observed between online metrics and price may be the result of another factor which we hypothesise could be technical progress. As a project makes technical progress, it is likely to have a community form around it over time, increasing online activity and also demand, and hence price, of the particular cryptocurrency. An interesting avenue of future work would be to consider the coherence between price and technical progress (via looking at each projects source code repository—these are available as cryptocurrency projects are generally open-source).

The next phase in the crypto mining process is to compile a list of all transactions, which is subsequently included in a new unconfirmed data block. It avoids “double spending” of any cryptocurrency and keeps a permanent and public record by adding their transaction to the blockchain, once the verification procedure is complete. The record is immutable, which means it can never be changed or corrupted.
