Only a matter of time before Elon Musk sells all his doge and buys primecoin.

Distribution is abysmal.

It's hard to interest new people when almost none of the wallets are finding primes, fewer than 40 wallets active today

https://chainz.cryptoid.info/xpm/#!network

and any value added goes to a few unknown mega whales.

Solution is to start a new primecoin with a very slow emission curve, or fork in a way that pushes most of the coin creation into the future.

Celebrities like Satoshi and Vitalik can scam people into ignoring/subsidizing their massive instamine/premine/stash but Sunny wasn't as slick.

XPM has two good listings -- Frei and Xeggex (2 pairs)

I see a QT, but haven't tried to set it up.

There is $250 in volume today. Which is tiny, but far from nothing.

A way to possibly revive Primecoin.
Distribution is poor and starting from scratch with improvements might help shift the crypto economy away from turdcoins.

1) Hardfork with all of the current coins reduced down to 1/10,000th of a primecoin. This will clean up the richlist within a few weeks and make it have a more fair history https://chainz.cryptoid.info/xpm/#rich

2) Emission slowly should increase as time passes in order to discourage financial predation. That's the opposite of most coins and the big thing that lets gangs hijack turdcoins like bitcoin. Every several years the coin would need to lose a zero or two if emission is increasing, 10 coins would become 1.

3) Have the 'prime number search' be a module within the wallet that anybody can fiddle with i.e., create a new algorithm for. The obvious problem would be validating the primes that were found. The obvious benefit would be new techniques for finding primes. All of these modules should be open source, but maybe pay a small fee to the person who designs the module, for a few hundred blocks.

4) If the 'prime search' module could be replaced with algorithms unrelated to primes and if the process were simple enough for an 'almost graduated high school' crowd, then anybody could clone or fork the coin to develop or search for whatever they want. When more complicated 'sciences' are involved then small gangs would be needed to develop modules that worked on more complicated things than simple prime searches.

This would help jumpstart the ai economy and make people more aware of the difference between fake ai which is software and real ai which is using a network to accelerate a science.

It's a terrible thing to wipe out the value of all the primecoins that exist already but it's probably the only way to move primecoin into the future as a viable coin. Coin squatting, buying up and hoarding coins to sell when the value goes up is the same as domain squatting, except that domain squatters only make money from the wealthy while coin squatters bleed money from everybody.

The downloads at https://primecoin.io/downloads.php still work.

It looks like Sunny started another coin at some point and attracted some kind of harassment or hostility on social media so he stepped back.

The wallets work and there are plenty of nodes.

A person can go to the network tab at https://chainz.cryptoid.info/xpm/#!network and get node lists then open the wallet console to add nodes, but it shouldn't be necessary since the wallet catches nodes on its own

Hi,

I see Sunny has updated the linux version, but no windows version...
Can someone please confirm which version of Linux and Windows wallet i should be using. (with links).
I'm currently testing "primecoin-qt-0.1.5-linux" on Ubuntu 16
On windows 10, i have "primecoin-0.1.5-rc1-win64.zip" which when opened says "v0.16.0.0-4e31bf9ed" "walletversion": 159900


Also, can anyone update the cpu miner to work with xpmforall.org ?
I have tried jhprimeminer and it fails, and can't find any others, all the "mega" and "dropbox" links are well dead.

Thanks
J

hi. tell me why sending coins from a cold wallet (primecoin-0.1.5) the outgoing transaction hangs as "not confirmed"?.
the Deposit passes, but the withdrawal does not.
I noticed that only 1 active connection to the network.
Thanks

Hello All,

I needed to load the chain and it took a while, so I made a snapshot for Prime Coin located here:

Cheers,
Waya

Not so long ago I discovered Primecoin (thanks to Uptrennd)
Started mining recently ) (with CPU on server, mostly for testing reason, I don't expect to mine a lot)

Decided to comment here to follow the next updates on Primecoin which will shared on Bitcointalk

good exchanges:
https://btcpop.co/
https://southxchange.com/

further exchanges, test it:
https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/primecoin#markets

which exchange can i buy this on?

There still new primes being solved?

Edit...

Doesn't appear to be... . 

Just joined! Why did the team move to a different telegram room, and even making another Twitter account? You should run bounties to increase the amount of members in the group.
