Feathercoin [FTC]

[zerocoder]

You can get up to 400-500kh on neoscrypt if you have a R9 290X, two of those its 1mhash, so if there is 32 mhash, how many gpus do you think he has?  

Yes I made the same calculation and start to think what kind of geek can built that system

So I guess youre 15?  

I can mount that blindfold  

Yes I am just 12.5 years old but you did not understand the point I just calculate the electricity and mining income and it is not even profitable so the thing makes me wonder, why somebody needs to built that kind of rig if it is not profitable

You forgot the rig can be in India, or they could have free electricity

Dont forget to go to school kid remember those nice years when you didnt have any worry, ahh youth, divine treasure

Anyone know of any easy to setup Faucet code? Or willing to setup a faucet if a free domain/hosting is provided?

[Luckylui]

Is this coin mine-able through BAMT?

I hate how ugly PIMP is.. I don't want to go that route!

Today, rent a rig with 32 M neoscrypt power, I am wondering what kind of machine provide that much of power? I really want to have one

Not that many gpus 

I think somebody find a way to design an ASIC, otherwise, is it even possible to have that much of GPU.

Feathercoin doesnt want to stay completely away from asics, which isn't possible, but it should protect FTC for at least 1-2 years.

Hard to believe after the algo change mate

  today ,VG antivirus report Feathercoin wallet have virus, trojan.E13F31C
other wallets ,BTC,LTC,have no problem,
the FTC wallet was download from office website,0.8.7.1, 
who can explain?

Happened to other users as well, its not a virus I have it on my win8 and no problem so far

Of course if someone finds something nasty please report, but for me its safe

This coin gives me headache...

Anyone managed to do solo mining feathercoin?
my conf file is:
rpcuser=user
rpcpassword=pass
rpcallowip=192.168.1.*
rpcport=9009
rpcthreads=500
listen=1
daemon=1
server=1
defaultkey=1
logtimestamps=1
dns=1

sgminer says always pool is dead...

i tested ,can not solo mining.
then i checked the source code,RPC protocol is not normal.
most pools are fucked by none-block-share attack,huge hashpower(over 100M) join in a pool,and find very few blocks or no block,
take away most coins,net diff decrease, then jump to his private pool ,take many blocks.
i have to say,this coin is dying.

So I worked out that if you mine FTC with a high end GPU all day long you can make about 60 cents worth of FTC, at that price it cost more to mine it then its even worth, people will stop selling it at low prices, might start to gain in price over time

It doesnt work like that unfortunately

Yeah, the problem with Feathercoin (like Vertcoin use of Lyra2) is that the larger miners have modifications that increases hashpower on their GPU's by up to 93% e.g. hobbyist or small miners get 320khs and big miners get 590khs.

Wolf0 (SGminer developer) has said, he has found modifications that increases hashing by up 93%.

Secondly, there is a bottleneck on R9 290's and R9 290x GPU's that limit hashing output to the same as a 280x. There is clearly a fix for this problem, as well, not shared with the community (hobbyists).

In normal business scenarios: the Feathercoin organisation and other neoscrypt algo coins would buy up these modifications and make them public to all miners to eliminate sell motives in the exchanges and ensure higher prices and stable prices.

However, this has not been done and those mining with the modifications have a huge incentive to dump their FTC on the market crashing the price and then maybe buying them back when these modifications are eventually leaked to everyone?

If, everyone was using these modifications, then there would be no incentive/motive for a small group to mine and dump their FTC, because they would be unlikely to get those FTC back at a cheaper price or gain an "exploitation" on the system/peoples.

This is what has happened on the X11 coins, there were modifications that allowed larger miners to get 50% more hash-power then the official sgminer release, those with these modifications mined and dumped their coins on the exchanges for 4 months, which is why all the X11 coins prices are so low. Now, those X11 kernels and bins have been leaked and X11 coins have reduced sell pressures on them and better price stability.

For example: had those X11 Kernels and Bin been leaked in August 2014, instead of December 2014 Darkcoin's price would still be at 0.01btc instead of it's current 0.006btc. Similarly, FTC price fall from 0.00006BTC to 0.00004BTC can be (evidently proved) blamed on these this modifications being used by a small group of miners to sell down FTC on the exchanges.  

Since, the December 2014 leak of X11 kernels and bins (50% extra hash), Darkcoin has been trading upwards from previous month 0.0058BTC average to 0.006BTC average. On this, it is postulate that FTC price will trend upwards whenever the neoscrypt Kernels and Bins (93% extra hash) gets leaked to the community.

Secondly, this is causing the huge demand for new coins, because spending 0.10btc on 50,000-100,000 new crypto-currency or putting your GPU's on a new coin appears to be the only way to make a profit with mining at the moment, even if the success rate is very low on new coins (only 1 in 25).

My GPU cards are pretty hot,it seems this algo consumeing much more power than X11 aglo.

Feathercoin Mining Pool Hub
http://feathercoin.miningpoolhub.com/

We opened feathercoin pool.

- Have ran many coin pools for months.
- No fake shares. Solid stratum can detect and ban them automatically.
- You can also mine the most profitable coin and auto exchange to feathercoin.
  This helps feathercoin price going up, and also you get more FTC than just direct mining feathercoin only.
  Just mine at neoscrypt multi pools and you set the auto exchange coin to feathercoin. That's all.

- Shows realtime mining profits for AMD and NVIDIA each

Come and mine together

Yeah this algo consumes more power and more the temp of the cards.

Really? For me its more or less the same in terms of heat

AVG internet security keeps deleting the Feathecoin application of Windows 7

Added it to my exceptions list, but still keeps deleting the wallet

Anyone know anything about AVG, please help

All worked fine on my old anti-virus software (Avast)
