Is sunny King still associated with the project?

I really respect primecoin, and it pains me to see a ton of sh*tcoins and sh*tTokens getting publicity and market interest when a real gem like XPM is left in the dark.

Sunny King was last active on peercoin.net on January 24 2018.  He is busy with another project called VEE. 

He has said that his care for the Peercoin and Primecoin projects has not stopped and that he supported the work of the Peercoin team.
He did not mention Primecoin.   https://talk.peercoin.net/t/ann-sunny-joins-project-vee/7346

But Primecoin Core is being developed by eXtremal, so the coin continues.  The community should rally around him (her?).

In the fray since 2013.
Does Primecoin have an active development team right now or is there something in the making?

Primecoin Core 0.16 is under active development:  https://github.com/primecoin-ng-group/primecoin-core

Cloned Primecoin Core 0.16 from Github and compiled with autogen, configure, make etc.
Used bootstrap and sync is stuck at 3 years and 6 days.  addnode returned null.  

Anybody else experienced this?

You can "bootstrap" from old primecoin client data directory.

For use with testnet only first (89.179.119.195) now working.

This client can synchronize from same clients or intermediary nodes https://github.com/primecoin-ng/primecoin-intermediary. Intermediary node can interact with any type of client.
Old client can synchronize from any type of node, but can't be source for new primecoin-core.
First step is replacing old client with intermediary nodes, later I will make release for Win/Linux/Mac and bootstrap.dat.

Care to explain what happened there?

The whole reboot idea was good, why did you kill and lock your own thread?

I hope it has nothing to do with the likes of 'German Klimenko' babbling utter nonsense...
Yes, primecoin client based on current bitcoin code is a good idea, I will finish it.

Datacoin to be listed on Next fiat exchange:  https://next.exchange.

There is a lot of development around Datacoin and that is why we really want to engage with the parent cryptocurrency (Primecoin).

Thank you.

Just a reminder Primecoin miners and developers.
Datacoin is a Primecoin fork and lives on.
We need your brains and GPU power! Smiley

Personal reasons and due to complications

Primecoin was one of the first coin that I had contact, the famous fork of Peercoin, there is still hope for Primecoin? The community doesn't seem to be the same, but some people keep them alive, since it's still listed on Poloniex, one of the reasons for forgetting would be outdated technology? Shocked

read the forum i'm picking up on, people who lack ability attempting to modify code they don't really understand, and by the adaption of the coin could totally ruin the coin, it's called Primecoin, for a reason. due to the way it's coded and it's more complex than to let someone come along and try modify it with a limited ability and skill. you'd have to be proper good, and i'm not getting that vibe from what i read here. you'd cause more damage by screwing it.

Its not that easy to manipulate primecoin as most other old coins since it is much better distributed. For other coins "scammers" could easily buy 50% of the coins, do a "relaunch" and dump on the new "investors". I hope this don't happen with primecoin.

http://primecoin.io/bin/primecoin-paper.pdf

if the is no cap on this coin it might need a cap at some point, but only when we see a massive price rise would or should anyone consider a move like this, and i don't think it's any time soon. code in a cap at some point i believe, but no time soon, the only good idea is increase adoption, and use cases, before anyone considers a cap. it's a good coin due to it's maths formula, but i still think it might have to have a cap in the future, because at some point the will be to many. and you will no longer have to keep minting coins, the is a limit to everything.

i get the impression people don't like caps, but at some point you certainly have to cap the supply.

The codebase is very old, the current intention is just to have it updated to the latest Bitcoin codebases, the code isn't being updated for fun - there are vulnerabilities being fixed, there is protocol parameters being modified for the better, to keep Primecoin's code at 0.8 will not be good for the long-term interests of the currency

I'm trying to connect to a primecoind running as daemon using a second computer (supposed for mining only).

My config looks as follows:
Code:
server=1
daemon=1
listen=1

# You must set rpcuser and rpcpassword to secure the JSON-RPC api
rpcuser=primecoinrpc
rpcpassword=XXXX

# Listen for RPC connections on this TCP port:
rpcport=9000

# You can use Bitcoin or bitcoind to send commands to Bitcoin/bitcoind
# running on another host using this option:
rpcconnect=127.0.0.1

rpctimeout=16
rpcallowip=0.0.0.0/0
bind=192.168.180.30
externalip=192.168.180.30

Trying t connect from 192.168.180.31 (mining pc running ubuntu + primecoind as client only) results in HTTP 403 Error (using rpcconnect=192.168.180.30 and same rpcuser/rpcpassword)
Quote
error: server returned HTTP error 403

Any suggestions?

Are the links in the op still valid? Are these wallets legit?

http://primecoin.io/downloads.php

Thanks

They are legit, but huge problems with sync'' with network,

If someone could upload blocks + chainstate folders, that would be very helpful....
You can try this snapshot http://89.179.119.195:8080/primecoin_blockchain_20171214.zip
Old client based on bitcoin 0.8.3 synchronizes too slow now, it's become a problem.

Scientific calculation of Cryptocurrency, to me is too profound, completely do not understand ah! This is a good idea, and let it develop more actively.
