FIMK was launched on May 17, 2014, and uses a PoW-based algorithm. It offers very low transaction fees and uses Proof of Work (PoW) mining to solve complex mathematical problems to validate transactions in the network, in order to keep it fair while rewarding miners with new coins for supporting the network with their efforts.
What happened: The FIMK community did not react to the development of a new technology and simply ignored it. The coin was launched in May 2014 and remained on a total level of about $ 0.00 for a long time. Currently its market capitalization is about $ 5,000,000 USD.

The developers announced that about 30 million coins were mined within the first 20 days, which means that they were at least six times faster than Bitcoin. Few days later, the pre-announced halving occurred (the number of new coins mined per block is reduced by 50%) and since then, the exchange rate has fluctuated between $ 0.015–0.45 USD per unit of FST without any clear trend and purpose. Currently its market capitalization is approximately $ 8 million USD.

Conclusion
Peercoin was one of the first cryptocurrencies that were launched after Bitcoin. It was created as an improved version of the first blockchain-based currency with a focus on providing an alternative payment solution for online merchants without the need for third parties like banks or payment processors. Its main purpose is to be used as a reliable way of making transactions within specific niche ecosystems. However, most of its successors have failed to win the trust of investors and cryptocurrency users, mainly because they’ve failed to deliver any significant social impact. This is why most of today’s Peercoin-based cryptocurrencies are worth just a few tens or hundreds of dollars, and some aren’t even worth that much.
