Intro

---------------------
|
|
|
|
|
Primecoin is a free open source cryptocurrency that implements the first
|
|
|
|
|
scientific computing proof-of-work for cryptocurrencies. The unique
|
|
|
|
|
proof-of-work design searches for rare prime formations, providing
|
|
|
|
|
experimental value for mathematicians to further understand the nature and
|
|
|
|
|
distribution related to prime number, a simple yet mysterious construct of
|
|
|
|
|
arithmetic that continues to baffle the top minds of mankind.

Intro

|
|
|
|
---------------------
|
|
|
|
|
Bitcoin is a free open source peer-to-peer electronic cash system that is
|
|
|
|
|
completely decentralized, without the need for a central server or trusted
|
|
|
|
|
parties. Users hold the crypto keys to their own money and transact directly
|
|
|
|
|
with each other, with the help of a P2P network to check for double-spending.
