FWIW, the other week I was looking for mining rig parts online, and I stumbled across a vendor that accepted BTC, LTC, and PPC. I can't find the link now unfortunately, or I would post it.

Prediction:
Posters who have pre-mined a bunch of crap-coins (BTE, FTC, CHN anyone?) telling how theirs is so much better than PPC.
vs.
Posters who care about PPC because it actually has an active dev team and a defined mission statement.

It's sad how accurate this probably is.

PPC came up with any entirely new system of reward, combating BTC security issues, and reducing energy consumption, besides being the 4th largest on the market. I personally think it should be right up there with LTC.
Stores accepting a currency has nothing to do with the currency's true value. I can't walk into Walmart and use gold or stocks to buy anything. Wide-spread trade acceptance for merchandise means nothing to value. If an online store actual accepts FTC I'd say it's stupid for it to accept counterfeit money just because there's a lot of counterfeits floating around.

No. Market cap value analysis is enough to show that even newcomers like Feathercoin are outfavored by PPC.

Glad the answer was yes... I would have voted for the option had I found this poll earlier, so good!

1. Largest trading volume ever in one day, was 7.5BTC - this is laughable edit: (apparently it's nearer 1000btc/day now) 2. PPC has very little if any news coverage as opposed to more than 65,000 articles for bitcoin 3. While the technology is innovative, it is fundamentally flawed in that 51% attacks can be performed by anyone with a decent volume of coins, and nobody can predict who/when they will occur. 4. The biggest exchanges aren't even thinking about using PPC (unlike LTC for example) 5. Nobody is really accepting either sales or donations in PPC (again unlike LTC)

i guess ppcoin needs some more years to get a major. so i would degrade it until now.

PPCoin not major, but the General! Fast, easy, more than LightCoin, with lower charges for the transaction itself is cheap and plentiful. With the inflationary model. This is a promising currency of the future!

Heh, coming from LiteCoinGuy, I guess there _might_ be some bias there.. Okay, I'll address your points. 1. Source please 2. True, but PPCoin is less than a year old and nobody's hyping it up, so there's no news 3. Completely wrong. Anybody who holds 51% of PPCoins will do exact opposite of attacking the network, since the attacker loses the most. 4. Wrong, there's a few exchanges that have either added PPCoin or are about to add it 5. reddit.com/r/ALTcointip allows tipping in PPCoins, but yes, there needs to be more merchant acceptance. But guess what? First place to accept Litecoin (Atlantis) is just under 2 months old. And Litecoin has been around for much longer.

Unfortunately, you're going to get all the Feathercoin dumbasses in here telling you how PPC isn't a Major coin and FTC is. Not to mention the voting will be skewed that way.
1. PPC is a major - I appreciate all Sunny does for the community as well as the innovation 2. "Feathercoin dumbasses" -> The nerd anger is strong with this one

+1 I think this "lets make my own coin" fad will pass soon and value will return. Mean while buy some cheap ppc

Just based on how many "children" ppc got, would put him into major in my opinion.

Prediction: People that use words like crapcoin/scamcoin are in the zomgBroCoin mindset and fail to understand the free market.
As for PPC, great coin, appreciate everything Sunny does for the community.
