[XPM] The gold standard no premine

[skull88]

So, how many of you got rich off PrimeCoin, while the Dev had to run around and buy his own coin off you? How many exchanges and pools are collecting fees off PrimeCoin, while the Dev received fuck all for his efforts?
Yep, sounds right to me

If he wanted something for his work, he would accept donations, I and others would gladly give him some for his effort. So what is your point exactly? Sunny got everybody's respect as a human and developer, and maybe one day he hits the books as one of the most important people in the history of cryptocurrency's. Maybe that's much more worth to him than some fast money?

And exchanges and pools earning money by providing a service? No way, how do they dare to do that!

Primecoin is dead in the water due to Botnets.

Currently there's a 600K PPS monster botnet herder out there collecting about 75% of the coins, that's why you're lucky to hit a block every three days with 5000-15000 PPS now.

Any CPU based coin will  be owned by the Botnets as soon as any real profit can be made.

Sunny King better get a GPU miner developed pronto if he wants this to live very much longer.

For the record, I believe that Primecoin is the first truly innovative alt coin in a very long time.

100% agree with this. I really wish there was some way to make botnets not work (without GPU miners). That would solve this problem

uh no, you can hit a block a day with 14K PPS

and in any event the 600K PPS person to have those resources are unlikely to squander the coins, and the secure the blockchain

and you are free to secure your own "botnet"

it takes time to set up a good miner and it takes risk, eg the price can drop etc.

I talked to someone who supposedly is running 1mil PPS on a private VPN.

He showed me a screenshot and the blocks were coming in like hotcakes.

Once the difficulty hits 9, I'm giving up.

Primecoin mining might be more difficult now, but I don't see how that kills the coin.
