XPM was my entry coin. The more I learned about it the more I liked it and realised it was a major 'cut above the pack'.

When the price tanked, I still held onto a few hundred that I had (which was a lot for me at the time) just because I rated it so far above anything else.

It's Peercoin's younger brother (known to me as 'Power PC' from its acronym) which is one of the 'greats' of all alts - maybe even more so than Bitcoin. For ages I thought that PPC would definitely steal Bitcoin's crown due to Sunny King's vision for a highly articulated crypto-economy where Peercoin's high transaction fees propelled into the role of trunk transmission for very large financial transactions.

XPM is still at 27 on marketcap so it's by no means dead. PPC is at 7 with DOGE and LTC the only mined coins ahead of it. That is a phenomenal achievement for an alt coin its age to have retained such a high ranking.

The rule is - wherever PPC goes, XPM goes. They are joined at the hip, so with PPC at 7 and XPM at 27, means XPM is a fantastic buy.

Get stuck in because it ain't goin nowhere folks.

P.S. The most amazing thing of all is where Bitcoin is now after nearly 2 years of competition from every type of "advanced" alt coin under the sun:

***************** 35 times the value of its nearest competitor. ***********************

After hundreds of launches comprising every type of improvement over Bitcoin - none of them even put a dent in it.

Everything you said i agree with, but I did cringe for "credibility reasons" when you quoted the 27 number on the "Market Cap".

i'm not saying you are not credible but the "market cap" is a humorous embarrassment, and I'm ditching it now before the rest of the market educates themselves and it makes us look like idiots.

the question is if i did all the relatively simple things that i needed to do to put "turdcoin" in at oh say 16 or 17 , would you be quoting it now ?

thank you, for the first time, someone openly recognising that cmc means absolutely nothing.

cheers - i'll note if you know history they started to core spam (or maybe the core spam started) (probably related) - after Quark passed Namecoin, you could feel the panic.

we will be there again, simply, in the mean time we can now scrap CMC.
