Peercoin is not an altcoin. Any one who has been part of cryptocurrency since 2012 will remember PPC and Peercoin. It gave birth to numerous altcoins.
It is almost September 2017. A LOT of new people are now into cryptocurrency.
Ask them:
When did you first learn about cryptocurrency? When did you buy some?
Many people say... oh, I've been in Crypto for over a year now.
A YEAR?
It takes a year just to learn what scam coins are... Which ICO's don't produce. Which blockchains get launched but don't deliver. People often sell dreams, but don't actually prove technology or show history.
PEERCOIN IS DIFFERENT
Peercoin's blockchain was created as a better store of value than Bitcoin.
Peercoin was never intended to be a fast transactional system.
- SYNC the Peercoin blockchain from block 1, till now, will take you a day, even on a slow computer.
- SYNC the Bitcoin blockchain from block 1, till now, will probably take you 2 weeks, even on a fast computer.
Dan Larimer, who created DPoS, used many concepts from Peercoin to create his Delegated-Proof-of-Stake system.
NEVER HEARD OF PEERCOIN?
Here's a fact.
Peercoin Dec 31, 2016 was trading at 23 cents. Right now, it's trading at $1.69
I don't know about you... but for me, if I bought 1,000 PEERCOIN for $230, and they are now worth $1,690, I'd say that was a huge success in less than a year!
In addition, the blockchain, the code, the technology of Peercoin has a 5 year history dating from Aug 2012 - Aug 2017
PEERCOIN IS A STABLE COIN, WITH A STABLE COMMUNITY
...and just by holding the coin, you can mint your own Peercoins too. Just open your wallet, after 30 days, you are now eligible to print (mint) your own brand new coins based on your stake.
It's like a secret in the cryptocommunity. Big and smart investors buy and hold peercoin.
If you've only learned about cryptocurrency in the last 2 years or less... you don't know about this coin.
DO YOUR RESEARCH. DISCOVER PEERCOIN BEFORE EVERYONE ELSE DOES.
More to come soon. Announcements on the horizon. Things are changing.
