Feathercoin [FTC]

[Conqueror]

Hello, I have set up a Google hangout for chats with the FTC core devs. Who wants to join, please contact me ftcorbsup@gmail.com

thats not how it works

This is for development related questions and answers. Most people find it boring and don't care much, however some people prefer to communicate directly.

Ah, I see now.

please, create sgminer bins for R9 270X and R9 290, thx.
driver 15.7 => only HW.

You could give this a try: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=575079.0 (at least to create your config with ExpertMode)

But could also be that you have to adjust your drivers.

To dev team .... as an fyi (not trolling you I like feathercoin)

Normally i make my own wallets from source but earlier tonight I was setting a vm up running windows & went to dl the win wallet distributed.

Of course i ran it in virus total & was pretty tripped out to see 16 of 57 positives !!

I sent a tweet to @feathercoin on twitter since we follow each other but just thought you should be aware of this.
Many pc's now block what they deem 'suspiscious' files by default meaning potential new people may not be able to get the client (win qt is what this happened with)

Just passing this info on but since the exe files were not on github i decided it may be best to just let you know vs. opening an issue.

With the talent & track record of your team I am sure it will get resolved.

That's because many antivirus scanners label any mining software as malware. Remove the bundled CPUminer and upload to VirusTotal again.

[cinnamon_carter]

ok / i just made my own qt

i guess you are saying the installer i never unpacked has a cpu miner !!

That would explain it.

Thanks for reply, sorry for any disrespect ... none intended.

Personally i think FTC has a great dev. team & promising future.

It certainly has overcome many challenges and has evolved successfully so far.

ShapeShift has added a buy/sell feature to the real time market data website CoinCap.io! You can now buy or sell Feathercoin straight from the market data website. Learn more about this here: http://bit.ly/1UVFZ7m

Feathercoin to be added?

Would be great.

Hi

Anyone able to update the intro to this thread? Thought I would do a little re-write and fix some of the grammar if you want it.

Created in 2013, Feathercoin is one of the oldest and most reliable cryptocurrencies. Since its start as a Litecoin clone, FTC came a long way. It utilizes a unique ASIC resistant algorithm that allows everyday people to continuing mining with just their CPU's and GPU's. Compared against Bitcoin, Feathercoin can offer faster and more scalable transactions and improved decentralization. Its swift, secure and reasonably distributed network is the backbone of Feathercoin. A secure hobbyist network continues to mine the coin, but we are building advanced functionality as well including: anonymous transactions, user friendly multisig, comments ín blockchain, 3rd party wallet plugins and more. FTC is one of the most secure cryptocurrencies available. Its a safe store of value due to its well balanced distribution model and long term development support. Feathercoin thrives as a leader in the cryptocurrency movement to replace traditional banking systems.

[ShapeShift.io]

ShapeShift.io is excited to announce the launch of our newest tool, Skeleton. Skeleton allows websites to offer on-site exchanges so that their users don't have to leave the site in order to do an exchange. Allow your website users to buy or sell Feathercoin directly from your site! Learn more about how you can add this to your site here and see a VIDEO example of how CoinCap has utilized this offering: http://bit.ly/1WvSoBx

It looks a great tool for crypto, very interesting. Moon, here we come!!!

Awesome, thanks for the support ShapeShift.io!

So...I somehow managed to lose the password to my wallet.  It's not much, but its ~7000 coins.  I remember some of the parts of the password, but not all. Are there any tools anyone knows of to help recover a password?  Even maybe some brute-force scripts or something?  Any help at all is appreciated!

Code:

Private key encryption is done based on a CMasterKey,
which holds a salt and random encryption key.

CMasterKeys are encrypted using AES-256-CBC using a key
derived using derivation method nDerivationMethod
(0 == EVP_sha512()) and derivation iterations nDeriveIterations.
vchOtherDerivationParameters is provided for alternative algorithms
which may require more parameters (such as scrypt).

Wallet Private Keys are then encrypted using AES-256-CBC
with the double-sha256 of the public key as the IV, and the
master key's key as the encryption key (see keystore.[ch]).

EVP_aes_256_cbc(), EVP_sha512(), 25k iterations

crypter.cpp and crypter.h tell the story

Good luck. You'll need it.

Why the FTC price is still falling day by day with so many good news?

Hi there,

I have not personally used this, but there is a rather large thread devoted to password recovery, including use of btcrecover....

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=85495.0

If you have a rough idea of the password (at least bits of it, length, for example), then you are in with a chance of recovery.

Cheers

Dave

Too many coins bro, also asic scrypt miners hashing hard

Scrypt asics? Ftc is neoscrypt, I'm confused.
