Started up a local ppcoin wallet but I can't find any connections. This is after forwarding port 9901 to my machine. Any addnodes that work?

Try this addnode set:

Are there ways to earn this coin without mining, maybe by writing?

It is also possible that PPC will always have lower inflation than bitcoin after initially dropping below it if you take transaction fees (which are destroyed in PPC) into account when calculating inflation.
Oh, very good point, I forgot about that.

I think PPC money supply is very hard to predict. But I've tried to conclude the mechanics in another post: http://www.ppcointalk.org/index.php?topic=187.0

I'd like to hear your thoughts about it as it rises a couple of fundamental questions.

Hi,

I setup new PPC pool with stratum and vardiff support. Currently this is a beta stage with proportional payout system. Fee is set to 0%.

After detailed testing I will switch it to PPS payout (with some fee of course) but I need miners to come and find few blocks.

thanks for help!

Strange error but your account was created... I will investigate this.

pankkake,

Good point that it is possible that long term Bitcoin could have lower inflation. If this occurs it will most likely be at least seven years away (after two more Bitcoin halvings) -- so the poll is intended to address the shorter term. It is also possible that PPC will always have lower inflation than bitcoin after initially dropping below it if you take transaction fees (which are destroyed in PPC) into account when calculating inflation.

If we want to get Mt Gox to add PPC, the best thing to do is demonstrate they could make money doing so by actively trading PPC on the exchanges that presently offer it. Vircurex has its highest volume on the PPC/BTC pair and this is sure to catch the eye of exchanges that do not offer trading in PPC. In recent days the PPC/BTC pair at Crypto-Trade has frequently been the second highest volume pair there.

I propose we focus on building liquid PPC markets on Vircurex and Crypto-Trade.

It's quite simple really, instead of new coins only coming from mining, which uses a lot of computing power, holders of PPC earn a very small amount of interest for holding coins over a period of time.  This this is environmentally friendly because it saves electricity which tens of thousands of computes would be using for mining.  An elegant solution to a complex problem. 

I'm surprised PPC isn't the coin everyone is hounding Mtgox to add, seeing as it offers far more innovation than litecoin.

Yes, PPC is not well understood at this point. I didn't understand it until a couple months ago, so there is hope for those who don't get it now. I believe that soon people will begin to understand that it is very scarce because the inflation will actually be low. It's biggest advantage over Bitcoin however, is that it offers much better security at a much lower cost. I believe the limitations of proof of work security are also becoming more apparent, but at a slower pace. It may take some time, but PPC will be recognized as a great improvement over Bitcoin someday.

I just posted a fun poll that asks:

When do you think the inflation rate of PPC will decline below the inflation rate of BTC?

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/when-will-ppc-inflation-be-lower-than-btc-inflation-288386

Hopefully it will stimulate discussion about PPC scarcity, which is poorly understood at present.
