What is PacCoin?

PacCoin was originally founded by William Corliss back in 2013 and was known as PacCoin – Pacifica Nation’s official coin.

Since then it has been rebranded and relaunched as PacCoin, which stands for the Peoples Alternative Choice Coin.

Although at the present time, not much information is currently available about the coin as it appears to currently be undergoing some major restructuring. In fact, PacCoin is scheduled to undergo a “redemption” on February 1, 2018 and set to re-launch on March 1, 2018.

Will you lose your current PacCoin’s come the hardfork on February 1st?

No! Actually the opposite is true. In fact, early “redeemers” will benefit from more access to 40% block creation according to the PacCoin website. In addition, PacCoin will also allow people to redeem their old PAC for the new PAC scheduled to release on March 1st, for up to 1 year. However, if you currently have a stake in PacCoin, you will want to redeem your coins sooner rather than later as the redemption ratio will decrease over time. For instance, the redemption ratio will decrease to 2,000:1 two months after the release on March 1st. Likewise, the redemption ratio will decrease to 3,000:1 at month 3, and 20,000: 1 at the 1 year mark.
