Stop making new coins!!! Just contribute to Feathercoin or Litecoin, or one of the other dozen viable ones!!! You guys are being ridiculous. We don't need 100 coins.
And Feathercoin isn't one of them? Tongue

Which is what I really question, Why do we need

Who is this 'we' I hear so many people talk about? I hear people say Feathercoin is bubble, I would argue that this messageboard is a bubble. Joe Sixpack is not part of any 'we' argument.  Many of you will never visit our forums and see the projects that are being developed. You want it to fail and that's fine. Maybe there's more than the 'I'm the authority of crypto' bubble that forms in communities such as this.

Do what you want, that's the point. Please don't include me in your 'we' statements, I have my own path.  Anyway, if you decide to give Feathercoin a second look and feel like working toward something than against, I'm sure the community would love your input and talent.

The Market, and the people using it. While I see your point, I'm a part of this market, and I'm free to say "I don't think we (the market) need this". I'm not saying anything that comes from me is fact, it's my opinion of the market as a whole. I apologize if your offended, but I think your taking opinions a little to seriously

If nothing else, FTC offers the benefits of LTC's quick confirmations and ASIC protection at only a fraction of the mining difficulty level of LTC. It also has tons of interested miners since its almost 300% more profitable right now to mine than btc, and twice as profitable than LTC. This is alot to build on in the first week of its public debut. What more do you want out a coin that is a week old? Of course no retailers accept a brand new coin. Name something specific that a new coin should offer if FTC isnt good enough as it is. I find a lot of potential in it personally.

This mining advantage isn't going to last at all, the difficulty is already where litecoin was a month ago, and is rising fast


Just to say, I'm not saying Feathercoin is dead or dying, I just don't see it becoming as popular or as valuable as LTC or BTC because it's just a clone of Litecoin with some variables changed.

Which is what I really question, Why do we need another Litecoin? It offers nothing that Litecoin does not already, and it just has even more people whole are going to dump it as soon as the price shifts. It seems like it really has no reason for it's existence, other than people want it too to satisfy some longing to be an early adopter (aka get rich quick) and that bothers me. I feel that if anything becomes #3 it should at least offer something useful to the community, like PPCoin and it's Proof of Stake method, or Freicoin, and the idea of demurrage, or Terracoin, with a rapid difficulty adjustment system. A plain old fork seems to do nothing but make a few people who have mining power and see the coin on day 1 some money.
666  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Why is everyone loving Feathercoin so much? on: April 30, 2013, 01:08:36 PM
Seems the Feathercoin is the equivalent of a "pump and dump" scheme where the whole coin if made for it Tongue

Not gonna lie, I'm just mining it while it's profitable. I have 0 confidence that a carbon copy of Litecoin will supersede it's parent coin, no matter what hype it's getting this past week.

So get them while they're hot!

Oh, and why such a low share difficulty setting?
668  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Help testing a new litecoin pool. http://litepoolminers.com LTC REWARDS on: April 30, 2013, 01:36:25 AM
Sure it'll come out fine in the end Tongue a small 200khs your way

No offense people, but the site has the word "troll" in it. That alone raises a flag in my mind.

673  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Honest Question, Why Feathercoin? on: April 27, 2013, 07:25:04 PM
Honest answer: Faith.

(and perhaps greed).

If they can convince enough people to get involved, they might be able to convince someone to add it to an exchange or make and exchange, and might convince someone to give them money for it and might convince people to take it seriously. Works the same for everything else.
So it's all speculation  Huh
Are thoses 300 opened feathercoins-threads not good enough for you that you had to create a new one?
Eheheh, sorry about that
674  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Honest Question, Why Feathercoin? on: April 27, 2013, 07:12:04 PM
I'm really just wondering why it is that everyone is so excited about Feathercoin. It seems like a legitimate Litecoin clone with a few variables changed, that really exists for no reason other than to exist  Undecided Any opinions on why you all are adopting it so willingly?
675  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Litecoin ASIC?!?! on: April 26, 2013, 02:02:43 AM
With that kind of hash rate, I doubt it's just some BTC quitter, plus why wouldn't they have switched to ASICs by now @_@

[    ] asic
[    ] fpga farm
[    ] gpu farm
[ X ] botnet

Probably...

If I'm not mistaken, the cap for Novacoin is technically 2 billion, although the point is that it doesn't reach that for a long time. Not too sure about how many exist atm.  Undecided
680  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: MTGox FINALLY announces LTC!! on: April 25, 2013, 03:17:50 PM
I honestly feel that the price of Litecoin is going to fall, if for no other reason than the fact that there is absolutely no estimation on time other than "Soon". With the issues that Mt Gox has been having, they probably won't be getting this up and running for a least a month, if not more...  Undecided It seems a bit soon for such a hike in price.

Hopefully, this isn't a BFL "soon"  Grin
