Emercoin (EMC) is an experimental new digital currency that enables instant payments to anyone, anywhere in the world. Emercoin uses peer-to-peer technology to operate with no central authority: managing transactions and issuing money are carried out collectively by the network. Emercoin is also the name of the open source software which enables the use of this currency. EMC is a hybrid of NameCoin and PPCoin that is more focused on the production of coins by PoS than PoW mining.
