they are CPU-mined (mostly), so it would be a completely new investment for a data center like Genesis-Mining. Would that really be worthwhile? Just curious.
1st - PrimeCoin is not anymore mainly CPU mined! it was 1 year ago, but now is mainly GPU mined!
2nd - Genesis Mining will not mine it, but they will buy XPM if they decide to make payments to investors with PrimeCoins. This, I think will be positive for the price of XPM, this is why I voted for this option.

Dear Primecoin Community.

We are thinking about adding some new coins to our mining interface and so we have put up a coin vote on our Facebook page for people to have a chance to vote for their favourites.

We have listed Primecoin as one of the coins you can vote for.

If you would like Primecoin to be on Genesis Mining, then get voting. If you vote you will automatically be entered into a contest.

More information can be found here.

XPM is dead, BTC-E helped to kill it faster.

Dudes....dudes.... LTC was 50$. What more is there to say ?

This coin needs OPTIONS. Additions. If it will do more, it will worth ALOT more considering its history, and when the BTC rise arrives, we are looking at the old price or even higher. But we need something like.... instant transactions DASH style

Amazing how times change. XPM was a top 5 coin only 12 months ago.

I remember traders on btc-e trollbox claim to have invested life savings into xpm just over a year ago...

Quick question, given enough time would all (or most) advanced civilisations discover primecoin? Lets say that europe and china never encountered each other for some reason but both had developed computer technology, wouldn't they eventually each come up with primecoin independently?

Then lets pretend they finally met, what would that mean for their blockchains, could they be merged somehow?
Are there other implications that result from scenarios such as this and what would be the meaning of them (if any)?

On another note, if one of the blockchains was older than the other and more primes had been found, wouldn't it be possible to simply submit (copy and paste) the results from the older one into the younger one and mine coins from it without doing any work?

Thanks Smiley

you cannot merge block chains, it is mathematically impossible.
each link in the chain.. (ie block of transactions) is stamped with a hash of the previous block.. and the solution for the next block is also based upon the hash of the previous block and the network difficulty so its is completely different every single time.... even if you went back in time and started bitcoin all over again the series of solutions to each block would be completely different (because the number of people mining at any point time and the number of transactions + their values would also be completely different)... this makes it virtual impossible for anyone to "insert" blocks into the middle of a chain.

since XPM is based upon bitcoin it likely works in exactly the same way.


if the block solutions were calculated as a linear predictable set of prime numbers such as 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23, 29, 31, 37, 41, 43, 47 etc then what you are suggesting would actually be possible.

but the way that XPM solutions should actually work is similar this:

Find me a prime number which is bigger than X digits long where the last digit = N

X being the difficulty and N being a digit derived from the hash of the previous block.

Is xpm still a popular mining coin, or is it considered a dud at this point?


Heavily oversold, it's way too cheap at the moment, it will rock again.

+100  Cool

I really think it's ready to make a comeback
