Peercoin (PPC)
Peercoin (PPC) is one of the earliest cryptocurrencies, launched in 2012, and is notable for introducing the innovative Proof of Stake (PoS) consensus mechanism. Combining PoS with Proof of Work (PoW), Peercoin achieves a balance between energy efficiency and network security. Its focus on long-term sustainability makes it an attractive option for environmentally conscious users. Peercoin’s design ensures that its blockchain can operate efficiently even as the network grows, maintaining its reputation as a pioneering project in the crypto space.
