Could someone inform me what is the total number of XPM?I see @ http://coinmarketcap.com/
that there have been found-mined 938,843 XPM ,but I cant find the total number anywhere.
Thanks

Is a normal mined block 12 XPM?
The block reward is 999/(diff^2), so it depends on the difficulty at the time you mined the block.

and how much is an unnormal mined block?

Would not surprise me if a GPU miner exists. I imagine it would not take very long to create one. Or just hire conman.
Otherwise congrats on this new coin. Looks to have lots of interests. I can just see all the math enthusiasts getting excited over something like this.
My only concern is verifiability of very large prime numbers requires tons of computation and is not a trivial process like SHA256 is.

Con Kolivas isn't going to do it for any (realistic) amount of money, even if he could. Who you're looking for is mtrlt.

As a tribute to food like BBQ, we should create a PrimeRibCoin.

Primecoin is doing the litecoin!

Geez, primecoin already broke through $1.25 and now hovering at $1.05 at current prices.
At least it isn't NVC.

If I have a core i5-2500k - that is four cores, what should I be putting my setgenerate to? I have set it everywhere from -1 to 16 and I am currently at 1250 primespersec. Is primespersec the best way to determine effectiveness?
-1 uses all available cores
setgenerate true 3 for 3 cores
setgenerate true 2 for 2 cores etc
It may use all the cores but not enough threads or something.
try setgenerate true 4 and see what happens

.. I'm buying up anything under 0.003. Anyone stupid enough to sell to me for under that, I'm a happy to take them from you.
Lot of coins available at 0.003 (mcxnow), how much you are going to purchase?
Therefore, happily, if his money is where his mouth is, there is a solid price floor we don't have to worry about falling through.

And, IIRC, someone else also made pretty much the same statement of "I'll buy everything at or below 0.003.". But I'm not gonna bother going back through the thread to find it.

Now here is someone establishing a true price floor.
10,000,000.0000 0.00000003 0.3000
With the price now 400% up on the time that I wrote that I would buy anything under .003, and that you were all stupid for selling them at that price, I thought it would be a good time to re-quote this post
I didn't buy much at that price (a few BTC), and what I did buy I ended up selling off at .01 for a happy 3-4x profit. I'll be keeping what I have mined for a little longer. Thank you- PTT
It's .0122! You lost money.

it's imposible. Somebody generate block very fast. For one day was generated about 3000 blocks... it's unreal
There are probably some miners who have GPUs working they just haven't told anyone else how to do it.

Nice I bought some at $0.32 and sold for $0.56 but kept the profit in coins which are now worth double
I'm gona keep them till I see 0.05 or never might use them hopefully.what if they hit 0.1? they will if no gpu miner apear or big bug in prime codes...

setting it to -1 will utilize all cores so will give you maximum performance. 1250 is probably all you're going to get out of an i5-2500 and it may take several days to find a block at that rate.-PTT
