Sunny King's Weekly Update #114 http://www.peercointalk.org/index.php?topic=3532.msg34151#msg34151Weekly Update #114 - Since the release of Nubits, the exchange peg of nubits to USD appears to be working so far. It must be noted that, the fact that due to the peg it's under political control (fiat inflation) to some extent, is actually quite superficial. This is because, the pegging mechanism can be used to commodity money as well, especially gold. The fact that the project issues USD equivalent first is likely a market driven decision, as USD remains the dominating currency in the world.
- Also, Nubits inherit privacy features of bitcoin, thus having privacy properties very close to fiat cash. Let's recall that during Internet 1.0, David Chaum had a project known as digicash/ecash, which focused on anonymity of digital fiat. The project failed primarily due to political obstacles. But it was a big deal back then, as that was the only known way to preserve privacy in money at the time. That was before bitcoin brings decentralization technology to the market. It is decentralization that allows the market to freely launch currency projects without official support from banks and governments.
- Notably, Nubits now has achieved similar goals of ecash, despite having different compromises in its properties. And thanks to decentralization, nubits is now circulating in the market, while the other pioneers of market-driven digital currencies, ecash and e-gold, languished in the footnote of history.
Chronology:
1995 digicash/ecash, anonymous digital note 1996 e-gold, digital gold note 2009 bitcoin, decentralized digital currency 2012 peercoin, energy efficient decentralized digital currency 2013 peershare, decentralized autonomous/anonymous company 2014 nubits, decentralized pegged digital noteHave fun!

Bitcoin fullnodes can only go down, peercoin fullnodes can only go up since it cost pretty much nothing to run, why not. I fire one up every time i get my hands on new machine

11.20.14NuShare holders got their first dividend payment today. 68,306 PPC (Peercoins) were bought off the open market in the last two days, and distributed to shareholders. If you held NuShares for at least 36 hours before it went out, you have either received your dividend or can receive it by following this guide.The other part of the dividend will involve around $22,000 worth of Peercoins bought soon. - Link to announcement- Overview of KTm's proposal

The old reddit altcoin tip bot closed down a while back, but there is now a new one up and running. Head over to /r/peercoin if you want to test it out, and maybe get tipped. The old bot had given out over a thousand dollars worth of Peercoin in tips, so hopefully this one will be as popular.

PPC is pointed at the moon, it's undervalued right now. It was 7 times higher while BTC was only 3 times higher. Next wave will be very rewarding for PPC owners.

Sorry for my noob question, but needs to be my wallet unlocked without password, to take advantage of POS? Minting is not possible, does this means I won't get my POS share?

If you are new, I would recommend using the Peerunity client. Set a very strong passphrase (use many different words) and then unlock the wallet for minting only. A video tutorial is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k7WU8JM8Dy0
