For those asking how to obtain
#Peercoin
, here is what you need to know. There are two versions, real peercoin (PPC) and wrapped peercoin (wPPC).
$PPC is the native coin on the Peercoin blockchain, running now for 11.5 years. You can obtain PPC from the following exchanges:
#Peercoin
$PPC starts out 2018 in the right direction. We're happy to know people are starting to see the true value of
#proofofstake
crypto network that is fair, secure and sustainable!
What’s that? China wants to crack down on
#Bitcoin
mining?
#Peercoin
has warned about this for years. Mining is concentrated where electricity is cheapest, making miners targets for local governments.
#ProofofStake
minting can be performed anywhere in the world.

The
#Peercoin
soft fork has finally reached 90%, proving that a distributed
#proofofstake
network can quickly reach consensus. The protocol will now switch to v0.6. Special thanks from the Peercoin team to everyone for upgrading!

Bitcoin is actually highly centralized, with supermajority controlled by handful of big mining (aka hashing) companies.
A single coal mine in Xinjiang flooded, almost killing miners, and Bitcoin hash rate dropped 35%. Sound “decentralized” to you?

blockchain using the newly developed

protocol. It will provide crypto index funds. $PPC

Now that it is Dec 12th, the
#Peercoin
soft fork can trigger at any time once 90% of the last 1,000 blocks signal support for v0.6. It’s over 73% now and still rising. You can help speed up the protocol switch by shutting down the obsolete Peerunity, upgrading and minting $PPC.
The earliest the soft fork can activate is on Tue Dec 12th at 03:40:00 UTC if 90% of the last 1,000 PoS blocks come from a v0.6 client. Currently we are at 59% support and rising. See here: $PPC
You can help speed up this process by upgrading and minting.
Adoption of
#Peercoin
v0.12 reaches 75%. Only 15% left to go until the network forks. Now is the time to upgrade if you’ve been putting it off. $PPC

Elon, mining is completely unnecessary to secure blockchains. Just look into the history of
#ProofofStake
and you will see that
#Peercoin
has been proving this for the past 9 years. Our team is open to sharing our knowledge and experience with you on how this is possible. $PPC
The
#Peercoin
Team outlines protocol changes that will enable cold minting, a way for
#proofofstake
blocks to be securely minted from cold storage, helping to drastically expand the participation of minters, increasing network security: $PPC
