A trip down memory lane...i remember when each coin was sold at $10 - $20 , i personally bought some a few years back at $11...not to mention paycoin founder Josh Garza and his mining endeavour named
"Hashlets"

Here's a bit of background information starting from the beginning.

Pre - Paycoin XPY

In simple terms GAW miners is a cloud mining company. It offers “hashlets” which are digital cloud miners. They are available in 1 MH/s (Scrypt) or 10 GH/s (SHA256) slices and do not have an expiration date

I'm also a bagholder of this coin and I really love to watch this coin revive.

could you give me a link of paycoin ann thread on this forum?

Hey,

i dont think there is a paycoin ann thread....paycoin was using it's own 3rd party forum // www.hashtalk.org // and a community run forum // www.talkxpy.com

both websites are as of now down

invested some coin when price dropped to from 20 to 2 dollars and losted al most everything!

You know, I'm OK with this. The XPY scam was heinous and Garza is a terrible person whom I hope karma continues to shit all over. But I like that the blockchain somehow survives, including being on a few exchanges. Nice little posterity post OP.

As you konw Paycoin Foundation dropped support for Paycoin, but there is no dev team.

If any team relaunch this coin, it will bring this coin back.

I am surprised you would even try to do this. PayCoin was a textbook scam we all should learn from. Revival? Hm...

Do you have any plans to actually update or maintain the code? Would be nice to see some action in that regard.

it was a ripe venture and traveling down that road taught how to hold bags!it also taught a handful of chaps to use toothpicks to keep their eyes open for gents that want to play the same game

Why would you try and resurrect a known scam? 
Those bags must be heavy.  Should of done due diligence before filling them up.  Don't come back now trying to pump this proven scam.

Trying to revive a known scam is pathetic.  Do they think they'll be successful?

Not if I can help it. 

It WAS a scam. Now it's simply an abandoned blockchain. Unless one of the original scammers is a massive bag holder I don't see any issue in reviving the chain.

roughly 50,000 XPY more till we hit total coins

*as per coinmarketcap https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/paycoin2/

https://s12.postimg.org/5waf20kh9/paycoin.jpg

question? does this mean total pos rewards will stop and no more coins will be generated? maybe this will be the final nail in the coffin for paycoin

Blake Birk do you have any plans to develop XPY or get a team together?

Paycoin is the biggest altcoin scam in the world so far, we need to eliminate this shit, never and ever buy again. It and URO were the most notorious scams in the altcoin history.

Well hey if all the scammy bastards related to the project don't have their hands involved anymore it's just an innocent abused blockchain  ::)

Right, team behind XPY already moved to IONOMY, they gathered XPY, swapped it into their new coin ION and burned over 6M XPY.
Now paycoin is just deserted.

xpy coin or paycoin is die coin, is zero volume transaction
after zeminer scam, paycoin is not good coin, because founder/dev paycoin is same zeminer cloud mining
not recomended is buy and hold paycoin

Wow this is a bit of a flashback!

What's new over here? Are there actually any development plans in place? Seems this thread is dying out!

Oh man,  Paycoin was set to be Bitcoin 2.0.  I even used to advertise back in the day, after the fixed $20 was taken off it immediately dropped.  At that point I resigned

This is an interesting and dusty abandoned blockchain.  What happened to the prime nodes?  Who owns them now?  

Do they still stake at those crazy rates?  Anybody know the last thoughts of the developers?

I see the trademark has been abandoned by GAW.  

Only exchange left seems to be Yobit.  Price yesterday hit 62 Satoshi.

Yes maybe this thread should be a place where people come and nurse their sorrows about this coin.

Paycoin brings back too many memories. I remember when I used to buy a lot of XPY when they where worth $20 each. Back then, I was staking like crazy but due to the price drops, I've lost a huge amount of money.

Still though, it would be nice to see a revival of this coin with a new development team to take over it. Maybe a swap from the old XPY to the new XPY 2.0 would be ideal if the new dev team takes over.  :)

Nonetheless, I'm still a bagholder of XPY and I'm not selling my coins in case something exciting happens in the future.  ::)

I remember this well...

I was selling hash on nicehash, and was getting 1-2 btc a DAY!!!

If i had only have kept it all! :(

Unsure if this is dead or just inactive but here goes....
