WARNING: In March 2019 the original dev (account name 'peepcoin') began posting in this thread. Please see this important message about his other fake accounts and criminal history: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1628121.msg50281738#msg50281738

PEEPCOIN was announced in July 2016 with some fantastic claims. After being called out as a scammer, the original dev (account name "peepcoin") has all but abandoned this coin, and has recently asked bitcointalk to close the main thread...

...so I think it's time we take PEEPCOIN back!

• PoW/PoS hybrid, now in PoS only phase
• 100% PoS interest per year
• Current coin supply is approximately 56 billion PCN (July 2018)

Download Windows client: http://www.almightycoins.org/peepcoin/download/peepcoin-qt.exe (no need for config - just run the client and it should connect and sync.)

Online virus check: https://www.virustotal.com/en/url/4f9295a8d20e47bd8e2f9041a1abc18fd0100025c5322773610ee08bd0de721c/analysis/1472830644/

Bootstrap:

A bootstrap is a snapshot of the blockchain which helps your client complete the initial sync a lot faster.

This is not required, but it will speed things up. If you're not sure of what you're doing, you can safely ignore the bootstrap, and the client will use peers to sync.

Download either:

http://www.almightycoins.org/bootstrap/peepcoin-bootstrap.zip
or
http://www.almightycoins.org/bootstrap/peepcoin-bootstrap.torrent (a torrent of the above ZIP)

1. Make sure client is not running.
2. Unzip peepcoin-bootstrap.zip and copy/move bootstrap.dat into your data directory.
- on Windows systems this is typically in C:\Users\YourWindowsUserName\Appdata\Roaming\Peepcoin
3. Start the client. It may be unresponsive for some time as it syncs. The splash screen will say "Importing bootstrap blockchain data file."

Mini FAQ:

Q: Where are my free coins? I was promised 555555 PCN when I signed up to the website. Please send them!
A: The original dev sent out a small number of free coins in late August 2016. He hasn't sent any since. It is not worth pursuing these coins because 555555 PCN is (currently) worth less than USD $0.01

Q: Why are people selling PCN for less than the $1 guaranteed value?
A: The 1 PCN = 1 USD claim by the original dev was wildly fantastic. It is not possible to create 39 billion dollars worth of value out of thin air. PCN is worth what someone will pay for it, and currently that is much, much less than the promised $1 value.

Q: Where is the Android wallet?
A: This was promised more than once by the original dev, but has never been seen.

Welcome to the network, PEEPs!  

are u sure ?  

Dev,

Why are you take PEEPCOIN back, why give it a second change?

It will hardfork?

Hi sir, do you want a portuguese translation?

Pm me if you want this.

Cya

let it go.

Maybe your not gonna get anything are you going to hard fork it or does it need a new coding. remember the original dev still have billions of coins under his control.

thats right make sure first that swap will be done completely as the prev dev uses his money to list this to ccex i dont know or sure if he already accumulated that money and get back his capital. good luck to you new dev hope to see more coming from this takeover.

Please see question 1 in the FAQ in the OP.  If you really want to pursue it, you can try PMing the account "peepcoin" on here, but it would be quicker and easier to spend 22 DOGE (yes only 22 DOGE - that's almost free ) on coinexchange.io to acquire it.

Hahaha I miss the conversation and the message combat on the old thread. Maybe almighty ruler is the new dev haha.
