Willy added a dynamic comparison chart showing the difference in energy consumption between Bitcoin and Peercoin proof-of-work mining...

https://peercoin.site/#energy

As much as I am a Peercoin fan, I consider this table a bit unfair, because Peercoin for now does not have the same utility/transaction volume/market cap like Bitcoin, and so it cannot be compared directly in my opinion.

But two simple indicators would solve that:

- hashrate / power consumption per million transactions/year.
- hashrate / power consumption per million USD of market cap. Here I can do the math myself:
--- Bitcoin: 7679050104 Ghps / 69079 MUSD: 111163.3 Ghps/MUSD
--- Peercoin: 1987556 Ghps / 34 MUSD: 58457.52 Ghps/MUSD

(that is roughly about half, I know that is less "advantage" that some want to see/show, but as far as I know the curve of hashrate growth that is to be expected is less steep because of the dynamic PoW reward that falls when hashrate/difficulty grow. )

It is pretty amazing how we only have 103 pages. Maybe the peercoin forum is where a lot of chatting is taking place.

Both the forum and Peercoin.chat is where the majority of discussion takes place. I really only use this thread to pass along news from the team and community as well as to answer questions.

Peer coin is one of the most undervalued coins in crypto this thread has only 103 pages for a coin that's over 5 years old and a proven coin sooner or later the markets will see how under valued peercoin is

Hello everybody,

Many thanks to the team for allowing this.

We'd like to introduce Flyp.me, an accountless exchange with profit sharing and distributed policy-making. It accepts/exchanges Peercoin among 12 other cryptocurrencies with 78 trading pairs. No registration, email or ID verification: only your crypto address.

The exchange is already live and the Flyp.me API has been released to allow businesses and developers to make exchanges and accept payments in 12 cryptocurrencies.

Our ICO is launching next week to increase the reserves we keep for each cryptocurrency, improve the current service, integrate decentralized asset platforms and R&D for 2nd layer solutions. We are now in Presale with +12.5% bonus. Contributions are accepted in Peercoin.

Flyp.me is developed by HolyTransaction, the first multicurrency web wallet. It supports Peercoin.

Got any questions? Join the conversation on Telegram and Bitcointalk. Thanks

PoS is slowly taking over the world.

I was wondering about the limits of mining and I read somewhere that it was supposed that PoW would eventually be replaced by PoS (due to power consumption, reaching limits on coins issued, viability of the network, ie keeping the verification process as decentralized as possible.) It would make sense to me.

Security is provided only by PoS. PoW is only for distribution and acts as a way to continually spread voting power to new people, further decentralizing the network. PoW block rewards are dynamic and adjust upward and downward based on the hashing power put toward the network. This has lead PoW inflation to decline over the years and is expected to continue that downward trend into the future.

Revolutionizing Brokerage of Personal Data

This is an excellent coin and it is unique in its kind. Yes of course a big minus was obtained after problems with the Btc-e exchange. But growth will not go anywhere

"SWISSREALCOIN - FIRST REAL ESTATE CRYPTO TOKEN"

After the collapse of the exchange BTC-E, this coin is also at the bottom. The question is guys. Do you think this coin will recover?

What caused the major jump in Peercoin today ?? glad I switched my S9 to mine it earlier this week. Grin

This is a dated response, but imo, the next leg up in the overall market is forming (ie, more people are becoming aware of cryptos in general and moving fiat over as well.)

What I'm exploring and curious about is there will be a broad, near-across-the-board increase in prices, or if the increases will be more selective, buying the coins that get more mainstream and mainstream-ish press. So far, some of the PoS coins I watch (BLK, PPC, BCN, CLOAK) haven't really budged out of the low range, sans a few-day-long spike.

I invested in Peercoin years ago and cashed out when the price spiked back in June. Kind of missing having Peercoin in my portfolio now and it was my first major (for me) investment and I did quite well out of it. Think it's a good time to buy some more!

Looks promising. New tech coming and solid coin on both Bittrex and Poloniex also on the Chinese exchanges Btc 38 and Jubi. If we could get on a major exchange in Korea this coin would double or triple in price.

PeerAssets status update...

Not that I know - I follow Peercointalk announcements regularly.

However, that does not mean at all that version 0.6 is dead, on Github there are regularly commits. If I'm right, then the development branch of 0.6 is this one: https://github.com/peercoin/peercoin/tree/0.6-hrobeers

The last commit was 15 days ago, the master branch was updated 24 days ago. Maybe they're testing now.

Yes, we are in heavy testing right now. This is the first release Peercoin will have with an expanded development team and not just Sunny King, so we want to make sure everything works correctly like expected. We'll be releasing something shortly to give the community some insight into what's going on.
