Nw simply rise the price to all time highs so i can speculate with my 120k FCs  I'm not selling many of mine until we reach a price similar to Terracoin. Terracoin is a Bitcoin clone and is worth 60 cents a coin and growing. There are less Terracoins than Feathercoins I think. Edit: Just checked - Feathercoins: 4,315,000 Terracoins: 2,251,920There are 17 million Litecoins which is a lot more than than 2 million Terracoins yet Litecoins are worth $2.70 a coin... There will be like 50 million of these coins in another 4 months. There will be close to 4 million TRC in another 4 months. Unless we see people trading FC for goods by that time, I doubt FC will be worth 60 cents. Of course, this is just my analysis and I could very well be wrong. There will not be 50 million of these coins in 4 months. And my previous post shows why comparing coin circulations doesn't necessarily lead to the right conclusions about prices. Neither of us has a crystal ball, let's see what the free market perceives their value to be  |

My point of this thread was anyone can do ** something ** to push it forward. Maybe you give out free coins, maybe you help someone get into crypto in general, maybe you create a useful webpage, maybe you have a feathercoin bumper sticker.. I don't know. As a community, that's up to you to decide. My contribution is trolling btc-e chatbox and spreading the word about Feathercoins. |

Let's not kid ourselves. Feathercoin isn't going to overtake Litecoin, that would make no sense. But imo it should be more valuable than Terracoin or at least around the same price. It's provides an attractive option to Litecoin miners and there are no ASICs to mess with it.
I believe in a lot of the alt currencies. Litecoin in particular. I am also a big proponent of PPCoin and I think long term more people are going to be attracted to it.

to monitor the balance of each address, either query bitcoind for the balance of the address, or query a third party api (blockexplorer, blockchain.info).
So I would keep polling bitcoind over and over to keep scanning for deposits to those addresses? You don't have to poll. You can start up bitcoind with the switch '-blocknotify='<cmd>' and put whatever command you want to run in the place of <cmd>, for example a shell script or python script that asks for the balances of the addresses you are tracking. It will only notify upon each additional block confirmation. Awesome! Thank you  |

This is incredible growth we are witnessing, everyone is after a bunch of feathers. And no ASICs can spoil the fun Current Difficulty: 14.2 Next Difficulty: 30.4 Time to Retarget: 17 hour(s), 51 min, 15 sec (courtesy of: http://benhohner.com/feathercoin/statistics.php) Going to be another big jump in price soon because the difficulty is more than doubling. |

why does it really matter? if you can cash them out or trade via the other sites and exchanges?
just asking, not saying that it does not matter, but just wondering if already i can exchange ltc for usd or btc what matters when gox starts with ltc?
Think about it logically. If ltc goes on mtgox: - The supply of Litecoins in circulation and for sale remains the same (10 million litecoins aren't going to suddenly appear out of thin air) - Tons of the general Bitcoin buying public who haven't even heard of Litecoin before will be exposed to Litecoin - Therefore demand will go up, supply remains the same, economics 101 price of litecoin goes up It also adds a further 'stamp of credibility' to Litecoin being the true second choice to Bitcoin. It will bring a second wave of adopters. And it will also mark a step forward for cryptocurrency in general as too many bitcoiners refuse to acknowledge Litecoin or other alternate currencies and instead stick their head in the sand... when Litecoin goes onto mtgox the biggest exchange, the pink elephant in the room can no longer be ignored. |

for this to take off we need to get someone to add this coin to an exchange like vircurex or btc-e and then have this coin added to dustcoin.com or coinchoose.com so people can see its profitability.
Good idea with dustcoin. I posted in the official dustcoin topic here asking for Feathercoin: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=146675.120 (others please let your voice be heard!)PPCoin took over half a year from it's release to get onto btc-e so I am thinking Vircurex is a more realistic goal for us to campaign towards imo. The best thing we can do for now is to keep growing the network hashrate and prove this coin has solid, stable support that is in it for the long haul. And keep up with these projects. |

Can you please add Feathercoin It's based on Litecoin and Scrypt and thus won't suffer from ASICs messing up the difficulty. |

Why dump so much work into feather when the next scrypt based coin that comes out with actual features will overshadow it?
By which point Feathercoin will have too much traction and the coins will be too widely dispersed amongst too many people. Look at Terracoin, basically a Bitcoin clone and it's worth 50-60 cents because a bunch of people gave it value. Plus with Feathercoin, it's an option for Litecoin miners to head over to if they fancy making more coins from their rigs rather than 2 coins a day or whatever... |

Lol. Prices going to high for me now. Thanks to all sellers though. I am content with what I have. Although, if LTC is 1/4 BTC price, FC should be 1/16 BTC price . Only 4.3 million Feathercoins in circulation though and difficulty rising very fast. Compared with 17 million Litecoins. When there are 4x17=68 million Feathercoins, then FC = 1/16 BTC price. |

Why so angry lol.  I personally couldn't care less if it takes 6 months. Gives me a chance to buy more before they boom upwards. And in the meantime they keep rising up in value alongside BTC. |

I'm working on a treasure stealing thingy - but am stuck at compiling the daemon for reading the tx's and all that jazz...
Nice. Anyone want to help live627? I would also appreciate a guide for this sort of thing... |

LOL @ all these users are the same person
And btw, DanJaker? There were a user "Jakers", marked as scammer... You are Jakers, right?
The first two I checked Blackhawk and DanJakers are both in the same timezone. Can't a mod check if they are the same IP address lol. |

I saw over 150,000 kHash/s, how many servers you need?
It's like 250 x 7950, consuming 50kW
Damn. That is a fuck ton. |
|
|

Could be the case that a few server farms that were mining Bitcoins have decided to switch to LTC, which could account for the large hash rates of a sole user. Considering there are a few that are listed on places like LTC Global and a couple of other security exchanges, it doesn't really surprise me if that's the case.
How many servers do you think are in these farms? We have about 30 servers at work that aren't used overnight... |
