Title: [PPC] Peercoin Newsletter #5: PPC Hits $4.00 - NYT Coverage - New Merchants Post by: PeercoinEnthusiast on November 28, 2013, 04:37:10 PM http://s1.directupload.net/images/user/131127/5bj6rswj.png
Peercoin Weekly Newsletter - Issue 5 November 28th Introduction Thank you for joining us once again for this issue of the Peercoin Weekly Newsletter. As everyone is well aware, this week in crypto has been significant in terms of mainstream exposure. So much to talk about, let's get started. Charity Campaign One of the cornerstones of the Peercoin community is social responsibility. Please take a minute to help us support our upcoming Peercoin charity drive led by Okerlo: http://www.peercointalk.org/index.php?topic=1152.msg9591#msg9591 Responsible Investing As Sunny King said in our New York Times article, "We are not greedy. We think crypto-currency also needs moral character behind it.” For many of you who are experiencing the fun of owning Peercoin for the first time, there will be a temptation to invest large sums of money with the expectation that the value can only go up. This is a friendly reminder that cryptocurrency is highly speculative in nature, and it will wildly fluctuate in the coming months. Please do not purchase more cryptocurrency than you can afford to lose. Peercoin prides itself on having a friendly, supportive community, and we feel it is irresponsible to not warn new Peercoin holders of the risks inherent in market speculation. Have fun :) Jays Jerky and Goodies We are proud to join Bitcoin and Litecoin as an official payment option for Jays Jerky and Goodies. Look for pictures and giveaways in the next newsletter. http://acimg.auctivacommerce.com/imgdata/0/3/4/1/7/1/webimg/6826377.jpg http://jaysjerkyandgoodies.com/ Strategic Planning The Peercoin community is grateful for all the participation we've seen in the past 2 months. Now that we've crossed the 100 volunpeer mark, it's time to take a look at all the different projects happening within the community, get feedback and start putting together a strategic plan for the next 30/60/90/180 days. If you're interested in watching our progress or feel like getting your hands dirty yourself, please follow us here: http://www.peercointalk.org/index.php?topic=1093.0 Additional Developer Resources Peercoin is always looking for additional talented developer resources. If you are interested in joining us in Peercoin development, please PM PeercoinEnthusiast immediately. Take a peek at the strategic planning link above, there's plenty of interesting projects to keep all developers engaged. Peerbet - Peercoin We are proud to announce that Peercoin is now an accepted option for Bit777's Peerbet.org!! "Peerbet.org - the first online gambling platform with zero house edge and without negative profit expected value for the players! It is really free: players compete against each other, not against the gambling site and there are no hidden costs or commissions. 100% of the revenue comes through ads. In any casino or online gambling site like Just-Dice with non-zero house edge players will always lose playing long term, but in the truely zero-sum game (i.e. where no house edge or any other commission fees applied) players will NOT lose anything playing infinite long." For more information about the announcement, please head on over to: http://www.peercointalk.org/index.php?topic=1123.msg9526#msg9526 Have fun and please wager responsibly. Website If you haven't taken a look at the website lately, we recommend you take a look at the progress by Super3: http://peercoin.net/ New York Times - Peercoin In case you missed the great article in the NYT: http://dealbook.nytimes.com/2013/11/24/in-bitcoins-orbit-rival-virtual-currencies-vie-for-acceptance/?_r=0 There's been a number of mainstream interview requests trickling into Peercoin.

Peercoin growing rapidly as its advantages over bitcoin and other altcoins are starting to be recognized Title: Re: [PPC] Peercoin Newsletter #5: PPC Hits $4.00 - NYT Coverage - New Merchants Post by: vindimy on November 30, 2013, 02:04:19 AM I've been running Reddit ad and Peercoin giveaway (http://www.reddit.com/r/peercoin/comments/1rno5q/heres_how_to_get_some_free_peercoins/) over at /r/Peercoin (http://www.reddit.com/r/peercoin/) as well as here on Bitcointalk (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=352429.0) and things have been going great :) I've taken that opportunity to introduce newcomers to Proof-of-Stake and it has seemingly blown lots of peoples' minds.
Special thanks to /u/Bagog- and /u/0nederfoo1 for their PPC donations. Some stats: * $362.95 (210 tips) in PPC given out to date (details (http://www.reddit.com/r/ALTcointip/wiki/stats)) * Today r/Peercoin surpassed number of r/PPCoin (old subreddit) subscribers * Peercoin market cap reached $166M or $8/coin as of now (details (http://coinmarketcap.com/)) The giveaway thread is here (http://www.reddit.com/r/peercoin/comments/1rno5q/heres_how_to_get_some_free_peercoins/), if anyone's interested in contributing their time or coins :) Title: Re: [PPC] Peercoin Newsletter #5: PPC Hits $4.00 - NYT Coverage - New Merchants Post by: Sentinelrv on November 30, 2013, 06:20:33 AM I've been running Reddit ad and Peercoin giveaway (http://www.reddit.com/r/peercoin/comments/1rno5q/heres_how_to_get_some_free_peercoins/) over at /r/Peercoin (http://www.reddit.com/r/peercoin/) as well as here on Bitcointalk (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=352429.0) and things have been going great :) I've taken that opportunity to introduce newcomers to Proof-of-Stake and it has seemingly blown lots of peoples' minds.

It's also great that people are learning about proof-of-stake because of it. Title: Re: [PPC] Peercoin Newsletter #5: PPC Hits $4.00 - NYT Coverage - New Merchants Post by: ninjafocus100 on November 30, 2013, 06:24:47 AM It is a good news that BTC-E just added PPC/USD pair. I will have more options on trading with USD. :-)
I really love PPC and XPM because of the community and also the founder Sunny King who really cares about the community and focus on the values of the coins that will provide to the marketplace (In term of energy efficient, sustainability for long term) A great community will determine the future value of the coins and I am glad that I am part of the this community and I can't wait to see it grows over time. We will definitely break records month after month. :-) Title: Re: [PPC] Peercoin Newsletter #5: PPC Hits $4.00 - NYT Coverage - New Merchants Post by: NorthFreedom on November 30, 2013, 06:51:03 AM The Peercoin community is outstanding. Newcomers that poke their heads in to www.peercointalk.org are pleasantly surprised to see the depth of help resources available for getting started (both in terms of guides, and staff members to answer questions).
Combined with their security & energy-efficiency, I see big things in Peercoin's future. Title: Re: [PPC] Peercoin Newsletter #5: PPC Hits $4.00 - NYT Coverage - New Merchants Post by: PGPpfKkx on November 30, 2013, 09:24:55 AM This is a coin with unique properties..I hope the world realise it!
Title: Re: [PPC] Peercoin Newsletter #5: PPC Hits $4.00 - NYT Coverage - New Merchants Post by: Valermos on November 30, 2013, 11:17:02 AM Great newsletter again.
I like this frequent newsletters. The current market cap of over $150M will help PPC to be better noticed. Title: Re: [PPC] Peercoin Newsletter #5: PPC Hits $4.00 - NYT Coverage - New Merchants Post by: PenAndPaper on November 30, 2013, 01:11:14 PM Are there any live charts for ppcoin price? The best i was able to found is http://www.cryptocoincharts.info
Title: Re: [PPC] Peercoin Newsletter #5: PPC Hits $4.00 - NYT Coverage - New Merchants Post by: hZti on November 30, 2013, 02:14:32 PM Now that BTC-E added PPC/USD others like GOX will follow and the Peercoin can easily get at LTC or even BTC niveau.
Title: Re: [PPC] Peercoin Newsletter #5: PPC Hits $4.00 - NYT Coverage - New Merchants Post by: kovert on November 30, 2013, 02:35:45 PM Just heard about this Peercoin It has doubled since I was involved a few days ago I love this mining.

Title: Re: [PPC] Peercoin Newsletter #5: PPC Hits $4.00 - NYT Coverage - New Merchants Post by: iheartcryptocoin on November 30, 2013, 07:42:44 PM Great job!
Title: Re: [PPC] Peercoin Newsletter #5: PPC Hits $4.00 - NYT Coverage - New Merchants Post by: FuzzyBear on November 30, 2013, 10:58:39 PM just got back from BitcoinExpo 2013 - London, United Kingdom
Great to see you all there who were, and ty to the Peercoin community for having a team of representatives :) I think we came across very well Fuzzybear Title: Re: [PPC] Peercoin Newsletter #5: PPC Hits $4.00 - NYT Coverage - New Merchants Post by: mcgin on December 01, 2013, 05:51:38 PM Great to meet you Fuzzy, what a great day
Title: Re: [PPC] Peercoin Newsletter #5: PPC Hits $4.00 - NYT Coverage - New Merchants Post by: PenAndPaper on December 02, 2013, 09:15:51 PM I like bitcoin but i don't like the idea of volunpeers.
Now that BTC-E added PPC/USD others like GOX will follow and the Peercoin can easily get at LTC or even BTC niveau. Gox is adding LTC for the 7 months or something. I 'm not exactly bullish on them adding ppc or any alt-coin whatsoever. Title: Re: [PPC] Peercoin Newsletter #5: PPC Hits $4.00 - NYT Coverage - New Merchants Post by: jubalix on December 06, 2013, 08:03:28 AM PPC has a good crack at takeing over in the long term
also very good community Title: Re: [PPC] Peercoin Newsletter #5: PPC Hits $4.00 - NYT Coverage - New Merchants Post by: tk808 on January 11, 2018, 04:28:37 AM feels bad, PPC only went up $2USD in 4 years.
One of the best coins to die in the history of crypto. |
