Peercoin is so underrated these days

[Abiky]

Peercoin, the one cryptocurrency that pioneered "Proof of Stake", designed by Sunny King himself. Before ETH came up with the PoS idea, Peercoin was already one step of ahead. It's a hybrid coin (PoW + PoS) with a finite supply. Despite being the one crypto that came with the concept of PoS, it was left behind in the dust in favor of newer coins.

At the time of this writing, 1 PPC is worth $0.31. I'd say it's extremely-undervalued. Still, is there hope for the project to make a comeback? It seems to me that Sunny King (PPC creator) ultimately abandoned the project via the launch of a new one called "V Systems" (which turned out to be a huge failure). Primecoin is Peercoin's "sister project" and it's still around. But it's also long lost and forgotten.

What's your opinion on this? Your input would be greatly appreciated.

There was several altcoins that pioneered different concepts. I can think of Bytecoin and Bitshares, that were more than just a copy and paste fork of Bitcoin. These coins were simply ahead of their time. In some cases, like Bytecoin, their tech was solid but people considered it a scam because most of its supply was pre-mined.

Ethereum also had a large pre-mine, but they were more transparent about it. ETH managed to succeed where other coins failed because their smart contract capabilities were more advanced. This attracted developers. With so many possible applications, it also gained lots of attention from investors.

Those forgotten altcoins won’t be coming back because they’ve been surpassed on every level. Those newer coins that built on their innovations are continuously evolving and improving and have reached a point where it’s nearly impossible for older coins, with less developer resources, to catch up to them.

I don't know, all altcoins end up the same and that makes me lose faith in altcoins and what's worse, no matter the technology behind it, it's still abandoned after more hyped coins even with lower grades, if Peercoin can be adopted by many communities and or its network is supported by many developers, it might increase interest again, but what can you do? Nothing will last long, the crypto market adapts faster to something new, if a product is too late than others, it will lose interest.

Peercoin,

LOL

I'm just learning about that coin now and that is extremely strange considering that they are actually have a very god concept. Maybe they dod not do their marketing wel which is why they are having the problem of extinction as it is looking like. It could also be that my attention have been main focus as I hardly look lpok at these altcoins. Bit the price yiu called is really tempting to make someone buy small portion and hold.

The AltCoin market had muchly been dominated by seasonal Crypto Currencies whereas, as it attributes potential valuation of prospects, and as much it earns investors interests to invest on, it's usually somehow maneuvered in the terms that's best known by the inventor and teams leading to the crash of the coin which we may assume they're core driving values basically by hyping.
While several issues had occurred in the AltCoin space with no specified problem identified to why the project has to fadlarge, investors becomes skeptic and loosing their interests even when the dead coin awakes again. This also had made lot of investors lost interest entirely in the Alt market at large.
