Title: Who owns peercoin?
Post by: K210 on July 07, 2015, 09:56:23 AM
Who has peercoin and how much? If you have ppc why do you have it, what do you see in ppc?  Since i asked i will answer my question first, i have over 5000PPC and i have been accumulating ever since early 2013, i think peercoin has a lot of potential and could one day be the bronze of crypto. BTC = gold , LTC = silver , PPC = bronze

I like how you used "bronze" instead of the appropriate analogy of copper.

Meh, I always liked Peercoin.  Other than Bitcoin Peercoin is the most frequent coin I leave my miners on.  It's still hard for me to see any future with it other than pure speculation as in the rest of this mind-numbing crypto world.

I don't like the gold, silver, bronze analogies either.

Each coin has its own intended purpose and are not necessarily in direct competition

True however BTC, LTC and PPC along with other alts such as NMC tend to pump together hence the analogy of gold, silver, bronze.

Banning crypto is always possible (it's already been done in some parts of the world), but this isn't exactly current news. The article that you quote is over a year and a half old.

I own enough...

It's small blockchain size is very attractive.

The fact it has continual inflation I also like.

Unsure how I feel about POS but ya.

I owned, but not anymore (made mistake selling them early for bitcoin). It's good coin to profit from because of the crazy swings it does.

I purchase PPC as an investment. I also like the PoS principle.

I have some. Not many, but more than one or two. And it's an interesting coin with a open-minded community.

Its drawback is the extremely slow development. I hope it can speed up somewhen.

I like peercoin to invest and trade. Has good dev and community, was fairly distributed. Actively traded on btc-e, and occasionally rides the coattails of bitcoin.

The relatively low entry price point and pos are nice too.  

Would put this as a top 5 trading coin.

Other "legacy" alt coins along the same lines include primecoin, namecoin, digitalcoin.
