Any other coins like Primecoin?

I remember the days when mining XPM was still a thing. The cryptocurrency had an innovative approach to PoW by using prime numbers instead of traditional hashing algorithms. As of now, the Primecoin project is inactive with little support from mainstream crypto exchanges.

I was wondering if there are other XPM alternatives that are based on prime numbers? These days the industry is focused on speculative “meme” coins, and worthless NFTs, so it’s hard to find projects that are truly-innovative. Especially on the PoW side, when the market is largely-composed by PoS coins.

If you know of any other coins like Primecoin, please let me know.

Most likely profit. If the coin is not going to gather investors then what is the point of developing it? Probably you would be the one to fund the development itself if you really wanted to. Many people these days are now kore concerned about what is ‘in’? Or what is the current trend rather than what could be beneficial for the crypto community at large considering the future as well.

I think there’s really not much coins that are mathematically innovative that are considered part of the mainstream coins or those with lots of support and value. There is one though MATH.

It also involves prime factorization among other mathematical computations. Its price is 0.5 usd so it’s not as bad as I would say. There are a lot more out there that aren’ just explored or probably have been long dead already
