D5000 I respect what you say and agree with most of the comments you make but peercoin needs a war chest and should implement a 5 pct miner tax that would assure being able too hire top devolpers and marketing and as I've stated many times the website does nothing for people who are new too peercoin

Hey . I suppose that this idea is pretty a lucrative investment currently!

Please read this post (again?) and look at the charts.

All coins have fallen a LOT with respect to December/January. There are some few exceptions that just had a pump (EOS) or generally did better than average (Decred, Ethereum), but almost all the remaining coins fell significantly more than Bitcoin. 85% losses with respect to the ATH is "the norm".

The reason is simple: Altcoin investors assume (we could also say, they know, as this happens in every bear market) that Bitcoin holds its value a bit better than almost all altcoins when general cryptocurrency prices are declining. And so they sell their altcoins and hold Bitcoins instead. There is also the part of the audience that needs to sell their altcoins to BTC prior to "cashing out" to fiat - another reason why altcoins fall more sharply than BTC in bear markets.

I'm a cryptocurrency user since 2013 and already went through a whole bull/bear market cycle, so I think I know what I'm talking about. In 2014 the pattern was almost identic: Bitcoin falling slowly, altcoins crashing hard.

To break that "altcoin curse" and escape the bear market, a coin needs to bring up something really good & unique. PPC 0.7's cold minting can be such a feature. A website redesign isn't.

Any one who owns peercoin is not happy with 85 pct decline since Jan vs US dollar and 70 pct decline vs bitcoin it's absurd that the peercoin team is so set in there ways and has no interest in any other ideas other then there Own implementing the 5 pct miner tax would have provided the funds too hire top devolpers and marketing and the website an embarrassment what it looks like it's time for change or peercoin will continue its non stop collapse it's absurd a. 6 year old trusted coin should be dying everything is not fine  at peercoin we need change

I for myself enjoy the updates here, as I open this forum much more often than Peercoin's own forum. So @Sentinelrv, I hope you do not really have plans to cease posting updates at Bitcointalk.

And to @Verdell & @Paul33:

I really fail to see why you're still posting here. Why don't you just sell your PPC and buy some hypecoin? The only reason I can find is that you're both speculating on lower prices. I don't know if there's a way to short Peercoins (at least I don't know a lending service), but achieving a nice entry price to buy up PPC can also be a reason for downward price manipulation.

I would always guarantee that Peercoin's price in a year will be much higher than now if:
- v0.7, cold minting & peer assets are released for mainchain
- the transition to modern code has at least begun

The website and Binance are secondary things. Even if all you want is a pump, you need at least a reason for a pump, and a website refresh already isn't enough. You need something "real" to market. For example, EOS is successful with it's promise of "0.5 seconds blocks" (even if this can only achieved with a pretty centralized design).

I just got done giving everyone an update here 5 days ago...


If all you two are going to do is continue to complain and drag down the mood here then I'm not going to give anymore updates at all as it seems they are not appreciated. I'm not your personal pumper and I'm going to take as long as I feel is necessary to make something that is of quality. If you can't deal with that then either make your own website or go somewhere else. I'm not listening to it anymore.

Nothing gets done at peercoin 7 months and still there isn't new website the peercoin team is living in another world

Any updates on new peercoin website ?

A plan is laid out for it. We're starting talks with a web team. That's all we can report for now, but it is progressing.

Please hire someone to do PR for PPC. Without it, PPC will fade to obscurity. It's a sick world out there and millennials got a shorter attention span than a gold fish.

One more thing. Maybe you can take a look at this one too /r/peercoin/comments/8w8x5p/what_happened_binance_exchange_has_every_shtcoin/

Peercoin bag holders should get out now this coin has no future peercoin team is,too,slow,too act and too,set,in there ways and there is no marketing no branding and no interest in peercoin

.0062500 peercoin Jan 2014 hi peercoin needs too change its approach it needs marketing and it needs too move with a sense of urgency

I expect good luck for the project.
A rather interesting vision, credible website, extraordinary idea.

Moving at a snails pace has made peercoin a dead irrelevant coin that no,one will care about didn't have too be that way but that's how it Is

Peercoin continues its 4.5 year decline into being irrelevant a forgotten coin

The website has only been worked on for the past several months, not as long as you describe here. I posted a recent update on it here...

https://talk.peercoin.net/t/the-bear-market-is-really-there/7821/35

So long did not appear, but that's okay. Since so many of the projects at this time, nothing released, and many of the projects only a year out only on the exchange after the launch.

For over 176 days and still no new website and no progress on binnace

s far as I know a few years ago it was one of the top altcoins, what happened?

I don’t think it’s that Peercoin is unpopular or disliked. We have a great team and innovative technology. The problem I think has always been our messaging. We have a great message, but there are a lot of aspects to it which confuses people, for example supporting micro-transactions versus the idea of Peercoin as a backbone settlement network. There is confusion in our messaging, which contributes to lack of understanding and lack of effective marketing, which leads to lack of awareness and adoption.

In our website redesign I would like to fix this by clearly communicating to people what Peercoin is. Once this is fixed and communicated clearly to people, we’ll be able to produce more effective marketing campaigns that work to attract the type of people and groups that the network is geared toward. It can even benefit from volunteer work as clearing up confusion in people’s minds will lead them to feel more confident in spreading the message about Peercoin. There will be much less hesitation.

So we recognize what the problem is. One of the major goals of the team is to fix our messaging and clearly communicate Peercoin’s vision to people.

There is a vast untapped market out there in China that would embrace an energy efficient crypto currency such as Peercoin. It would be a very viable alternative to bitcoin mining as you know so why not make attempts to get listed on Asian exchanges such as Binance? They simply don't have access to Peercoin and that is a problem. Is it a cost issue?

I think you're right. Also, the 1% interest is a compelling feature but folks are regrettably too eager to daytrade to let their coins age.

Totally agree. The more users the better.

Regarding the energy issue: https://twitter.com/PPCEnergy

I see. I'm already preparing my post there.

Edit: Started the thread here.

I don’t think you have to worry about this.
