- Security high level (coin owners and stakeholders are the ones who take influence over the network, produce new blocks, and secure the chain. Stakeholders are also the owner of the blockchain and all together decide its future through voting process). - Peercoin is the first blockchain capable of allowing Minting protocol rules to be governed directly by its users. - Peercoin development on modularity (keeping the protocol simple and secure with as few features as possible). - Fair distribution (while proof-of-stake provides security directly, proof-of-work is projected to do so indirectly by strengthening the decentralization of the network through a wider distribution of PPC to new potential minters). - Good growth prospects in the medium to long term.
