Feathercoin [FTC]

[kcanup]

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

Too many coins bro, also asic scrypt miners hashing hard 

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

Oops sorry its neoscrypt now since 2014 but think it was launched as scrypt coin first that was in my mind still lol

Haha yes indeed

FTC is a significant coin,
it's included in the ALT19 Index and has been there since the beginning.

Estimated altcoin inflation or total supply over the next 10 years?

The information is needed for http://alt19.com/19/cryptocurrency.php

Thank you

hello. outsider stopping in for random suggestion.
why doesn't FTC consider side-chain / merge mine tech?
i believe VTC has established MM side chain options.
no fork needed.  but will require coding a new code base for Neo that can launch new coins that MM.

I'm having an issue with ccMiner after adding 2x GTX 750ti.  Any ideas?

Code:

*** ccminer 1.5.69-git(SP-MOD) for nVidia GPUs by sp-hash@github ***
        Built with VC++ 2013 and nVidia CUDA SDK 6.5

  Based on pooler cpuminer 2.3.2 and the tpruvot@github fork
  CUDA support by Christian Buchner, Christian H. and DJM34
  Includes optimizations implemented by sp, klaust, tpruvot, tsiv and pallas.

We've discussed merged-mining and didnt agree on that plan. We had offers from Litecoin to be their sidechain, but that isnt our goal.

Other Sidechains were also in our minds, like bitshares, but we also couldnt agree on that plan.

Short explanation but I hope it helps.

FTC is neoscrypt, litecoin is scrypt. Can FTC merge mine with litecoin? Do you need to change the algorithm?

I have gained my first Feathercoin. Is there a list of shops which accept Feathercoins? I would like to spend them for some real stuff. Even if it would be a coffee

We've declined merged mining with Litecoin. - But yeah, it wouldnt fit either.

Sorry, I wasn't suggesting merged mining with Litecoin.
Rather developing MM for Neoscrypt so other coins could consider joining the network and lend hash power to FTC pools (and visa versa).

The other NeoScrypt coins are rather small. Orbitcoin seems the largest, but it's 33% PoW and 67% PoS. Halcyon is even more into PoS (20% / 80%). Phoenixcoin is pure PoW now, but it could change depending on opportunities.

I get that too ghostlander.
  
It's not so much the immediate gain.  More looking down the road.  3-5 year plan ... FTC still here?
In order to thrive your gonna need an awesome possum network.  The anti-ASIC POW sector is a bit crowded.  How can FTC stand out from the competition?

This is not forking FTC, but getting NeoScrypt as smart place to launch new POW projects in years 2017-2025.  Feather takes the lead to make Neo MM "friendly/plug-n-play" for other coins.   That makes FTC is a mighty big oak tree that lots of microcoins can take shade under.  Anyways, the move is a necessary must have feather in your cap since your most immediate competitor already has MM ... that side projects called monocle?  You can launch a new coin that's MM as a beta test before forking a already functioning project ... say UFO or whoever in the Neoscrypt that is in need of a hash boost.  

Again this is long term vision, and likely won't garner much public attention right now, it is about being positioned right for the future.  Going to neoScrypt was the first step, finding the best way to build up that network is the next step.

BONUS ... a few well branded POW scrypts would likely come over to your side as well since the ASICs are slowly squeezing in and will have the same effect as what happened to SHA256 alts.  NeoScrypt is to FTC as  SHA256  is to bitcoin ... and it be wisest to have lots of friends merge mining at your side    ... besides the Doge coin in this scenario is evident

FTC wallet is the most fuctional wallet I've ever used.

FTC wallet is the most fuctional wallet I've ever used.

I just downloaded the latest version in order to synch my wallet. It looks fine to me!

Unfortunately it has to 're-index the blocks' of more than 2½ years now, but I guess that will be done quite fast.

With Coinpayments its fair enough to say that you can use FTC anywhere BTC is accepted.
That's pretty huge list

Hi, thank you for interesting input.
I think main goal for FTC should be fix all what BTC is doing wrong in as currency.
With that said, its fine to ignore most of 2.0 garbage and focus on basics.

There are 3 huge problems BTC is facing right now: scalability, speed, miners
FTC is already better with first 2 issues, 3rd is bit more complicated.
