I don't thinks so. It stays or falls in the last months. Maybe its because new coins and technics released and we heard nothing from this developer.

Not a single altcoin has even come close to holding it's value since Nov :S. They are all just starting to make an actual upswing now.

Feathercoin is to Litecoin what Litecoin is to Bitcoin. Make of that what you will.

This must be because you're from the newer generation.
Back in '13 it was quite popular if you ask me and there was a lot of going on about it. Due to the high quantity of coin releases FTC was kinda abandoned/forgotten.
Sadly I do not think that the future is bright for FTC.

Feathercoin was popular because of the enthusiastic community lead by the incredible well spoken Chris Ellis. Without the community feathercoin is just a useless clone. The only thing keeping it alive now is btc-e.

Feathercoin was the first alt coin i discovered and what drew me to the alt coin scene. But i would not touch it now.

---message from the oracle----- Illuminati digitalindustry--------



-  started with massive disproportionation "superblocks" from Genesis

- and then was insta listed on BTCe (it was early days)  

- This left a lot of "shade" in the markets.

-  however time and distribution washes these things out, washes away the shade and brings a market light.

- however now FTC is changing to a new PoW in order to "avoid scrypt ASICS"

- however some have expressed that if they were serious in this initiative the FTC core coders would choose an established true PoW that has both GPU and CPU miners.

- the risk here is of course they pre developed the GPU miner and plan to release the new PoW as a "CPU/GPU" PoW and  "WE will let the market make a GPU miner"

- giving the core coders a "trust monopoly on Proof of Work" again (for a time.)

- This is a very old crypto play but effective because it give the impression of "value"

- if you think they will get away with it FTC is a good buy now as it may bump as they monopoly mine it, to later dump it onto the unsuspecting market.

Feathercoin is to Litecoin what Litecoin is to Bitcoin. Make of that what you will.

Actually, both feathercoin and litecoin belong to the same category known as scrypt coin.

And all of them are going to go away soon.

Not sure if you read what I said but ftc has already begun moving to the upgraded form of scrypt.. So litecoin can stay where it is if it want's. It does own scrypt you could say.

I'm glad to hear this coin being discussed again here.
Your right about the importance of community and that's always been feathercoins focus.

There are a great bunch of people in that community. Doing some really amazing work. How many coins can say one of their developers created a new hashing algorithm? Feathercoin just did this.

And don't be worried about move to NeoScrypt without a GPU miner. One is already in development and they won't switch until its ready. This is an experienced community who value their coin and are not going to rush things.

Go and have a look at the forum. Everyone is welcome :)
