Hi guys,

Does anyone know of, or know how to create, a mining calculator that can incorporate the mathematics and input/output values and variables that are explained in this post?

[http://www.reddit.com/r/peercoin/comments/1oro2i/how\_to\_effectively\_calculate\_ppc\_profitability/](http://www.reddit.com/r/peercoin/comments/1oro2i/how_to_effectively_calculate_ppc_profitability/)

I think PPC could really use some good online calculators that can automatically draw on current market statistics, and project out several months in advance the results of different effects, maybe even with graphical support or at least charts.

I think something like this would be really valuable for the PPC community to have. We need some good calculators that understand the inner workings of PPC.

Value of PPC is determined not only by the service it could trade for. Hashrate and block reward only accounts small part of it. If you want to attach value to PPC, try to promote the idea of PPC.
