Feathercoin [FTC]

[cycloid]

anyone wants to sell me some coins? I would be willing to pay 1btc for 100,000

pm me if you got 100k we can talk

[alex_fun]

Anyone made pool? Or how do I make 1?

[fundamentals]

I'm still figuring out the mining. If you managed to mine, send some along, you know to test and stuff

:O

Is this the bronze to bitcoin? 

PPC is bronze. This here is I don't know. What innovation does it offer?

I'm afraid I can not support coins that simply move some zeros around and clone an existing coin.  Without some compelling technical improvement on LTC (and which they refused to adopt after petitioning) I can't really see this as anything but a "me too" coin.  Also I see no indication of a committed development team that will support this for the long term and as such is a waste of time.

How one can see when blocks are orphaned?

I find this launch a good chance to learn how coins work in practice

When low diff, many solo miners and someone say with large gpu farm, what are the causes for blocks been orphaned? Seems block is solved and solo miner dont know about it? Or software notifies all miners and each get new block?

Also from the probability theory point of view what are the chances of solo miner to get the block when large pool are in play? How does some party control of say 5% of hash power influences chance of block discovery? And anyone made pool for this coin? I wanted to try to see how it works however a bit sleepy

[whydifficult]

let it run overnight: 346 rejected blocks, 3 blocks accepted from which 3 are orphans @ 260 khash. So in total I got 0 FC.

Is this just bad luck? I entered around block 3000 and it has been running since. Just didn't setup the portforwarding.

To many miners now, we are too far behind to get a block or enough blocks to make it worthwhile, some people already have 10,000+ FC

The only solution for our low hashrates would be a pool.

I am working on a pool. with some luck i got it running in a few hours.

well i let my cudaminer run on it at 104 khash (nvidia card), and i still got 2 blocks in less than an hour....so it's not too late yet, but you need to use a proper miner

I'm using cgminer, diff just went up to 16,400 too

And i'm using a ATI card too, about 250kh/s

Why feather coin ? Because : ...

Litecoin being as mature as it is makes it hard to join in the fun

Party time ! ... O_o

It seems to be trying to create a build.h file from a repository that does not exist.

I have now changed the source code to fix this error and have uploaded the code. Hope you are having fun with the coin.

To many miners now, we are too far behind to get a block or enough blocks to make it worthwhile, some people already have 10,000+ FC

You can still solo mine easily. There are four times as many FeatherCoins as LiteCoins so you'll still be able to get 10,000FC together.

can you post link for download?

[bushstar]

can you post link for download?

It is the source code link on the first page.

[nesic1]

ok, i download source code so where to put it and what to do with it?

[alex_fun]

I mined it for like 4 to 5 hrs yet to get coins however seems from debug I got many blocks accepted? when I check wallet balance it says 0.000000 how to fix it?
