Hello Midnightrun,

Thank you for your questions and please accept my sincerest apologises if you are not getting the answers you are seeking via this forum.  Please feel free to email our FastCoin Foundation team members at info@fastcoin.ca.  Most of our community members are well meaning and sometimes this forum may not be the best place to communicate that loyalty and enthusiasm.

Thanks again for your questions as we look forward to your email reply.

Sincerely

Cheetahx



Thanks for your response Cheetahx. Where is the community most active? It seems that fastcointalk.org is a ghost town and the subreddit hasn't really been active in over a year. Is there a roadmap of what is to come for FastCoin and what the team is working on currently?

Where were all of you with your knowledge when it was flat for 2 years (2015-2016)? Classic: Detractors show up only when price spikes.
Reality is that facts are starting to flow in:
- new website (after 3 years of quiet)
- 2 exchangers and one more by weeks now (there has been a period with only 1 exchanger, and I think to remember zero exchangers in 2015 for some months)
- growing interest on the forum and here
- DevTeam is alive - a major event is supposed to happen Aug 1st

Oh, and no skandals for one of the  few "survival" to the 1st wave of cryptos, now 4.5 year old..... unless you consider skandal some few stuck transactions, which happens for every crypto, BTC included.

Wow, this community is pretty bitter. Good communities don't respond this way. We are asking good questions because we want this coin to thrive -- not just be a p&d. I'm invested in this coin and have been before the spike. If you can't look ahead and the dev team is not up to the challenge of mass adoption, this coin will be abandoned (I'm not saying this is the case). A good community recognizes these challenges and looks to address them, not shut down any critical evaluations or concerns.

Does anyone still have access to the original code and can possibly modify/fork/improve Fastcoin or is it only speculative and without technical updates? The block time of 12 seconds is an advantage yes, but it takes a lot of precautions to make it really usable. This being said well played to those who fill their pockets Smiley


@MisterMerci, you are asking the right questions and I think you have come to the right conclusion. There are a lot of "usable" coins, but that doesn't make them good coins. There are plenty of reasons for concern and "to the moon" and "Fastcoin has been useable for over 4 years" aren't the answers.

midnightrun, I have Fastcoin-Qt running on Macs, and they sync as they should.

Make sure you use version 10. Version 8 worked when I re-installed it, but then wouldn't sync the next time I started it. Using version 10 and setting it up with the downloaded blockchain worked without issues.

At times I need to  reboot for the sync to work, this  only occurs  at times when I have not  had a reboot for a while.

Thanks for your reply fxj. I'm still having issues and I don't have any issues with any other wallets for other cryptos. I guess my main point is here that for this coin to be adopted, these wallet and blockchain issues need to be worked out.

Is it possible to sync completely from block 1 without downloading a copy of the chain from google drive?

Just to clarify, I am able to sync the chain if I download the google drive link.

But things like this need to be fixed if the coin should do well  Roll Eyes


This is truth. I like this coin but getting the Mac wallet to sync has been nothing but an exercise in frustration. Took days to get 1/4 complete and then got stuck. Downloaded the blockchain and was able to get to 99%, but now it is stuck two days behind.

It seems this coin has potential (love the name and the speed of transactions), but without an active dev team and community I don't see it going anywhere soon.
