Feathercoin [FTC]

[nick1492]

Been mining FTC for a while now, i'll be $$$$ to see it start moving like VTC has...

Can I use my GPU to mine feathercoin? I'm using GPU cards. Where can I download the mining software of feathercoin? thanks

Wow big price movements! A couple thoughts on why it might not be over:

For years VTC and FTC were very similar in market cap. Both big coins of the older days, FTC was the #3 coin for a long time (after Bitcoin and Litecoin). Both VTC and FTC took similar actions by creating unique algos to resist ASIC. Both coins have old and new devs working, much of the old community hanging around, stable solid operating networks.

Today VTC market cap is 200 million, FTC’s is 15 million. One big difference between them tho is that VTC is listed on Poloniex which is pretty exclusive and very high volume. BUT, VTC’s recent price skyrocketing was driven mostly by volume on Bittrex not Polo. So polo isn’t the reason for VTC’s success, its traders on trex through the giant VTC spike. Bittrex is the top spot to trade FTC these days. So all those rich traders pushing VTC are no doubt considering similar movements on FTC given the similarities in the coins.

Very valid point , but I will add even something or summarise what you wrote :
1. Growing Trust in the old coins / communities prior to ICOs (I expect for coins like Blackcoin, MUE to jump)
2. Scandals around the new coins / ICO and again a general mistrust of new coins
3. Diversification : imagine you have 50k to invest in crypto . Where you gonna put your money ? Maybe 5x BTC  but the rest in altcoins surely because, we do not put all the eggs in one basket . Which altcoins are the most reliable ? Again here we go back to point 1-2

This is no financial advice though but I believe most of the old coins with active projects are ready for a strong "comeback"

couldn't agree more, well established older coins are maturing one at a time..

Very true words. There are more trust to old coins for sure and we can see also growing interest in these, because they are well established and the people can see the work of the devs over a long time.

I just try to avoid risk. These ICO coins often launch with massive market caps. The bigger the market cap, the further it can tank. Always gotta consider the whales. A whale in an expensive ICO coin is sitting on tens of millions worth of crypto. Huge incentive for them to sell, no incentive to buy. Whereas whales in small old coins have little incentive to sell as they can't get nearly as much for their funds. This includes developers of course!

And new whales too of course. A millionaire decides to get into FTC, it impacts the price greatly and the big buyer gets a worthwhile chunk of supply. Same millionaire means nothing to a 300mil ICO coin and gets squat of total supply.

Do you want a coin where the developer holds 50 mil worth of coins he never needed to purchase?....or do you want devs like those on FTC who no doubt try to buy low/sell high like the rest of us and who'll only get rich by bringing continued success to the project?

Old coins the dev is your ally for sure..., ICO's...the devs might be allies, but you need to trust them and wait and see.

The project is doing its job well. I would love to participate and contribute to your project because your project is very special to me. I hope to get updates on the project

[Mozzus]

is there any one ho could send me ccminers version for feathercoin as that shit nsgminer is not displaying right hasrates or is to darn slow .. takes off half of my cards power

[boltz]

Wow , the patterns are identical  . I guess we all now what will happen , for those who don't know , go check the ftc graph , take a good good luck , find the similarities and then ask yourself , where is this going now 

[syauqialbaana]

Her turnover increased currently,since the capitalization of bitcoin is growing this opens the door to rise price old coins.I think to a halving period she will reveal her identity.

price action starting to remind me of the GRS move last few days.  Loving these older coins

Hi. I’m starting a list of the oldest cryptos. For now I’m maintaining the list on a bitcointalk thread but will eventually host a website. Hoping to add value to old coins by making the age rankings easy to look up.

Offering $20 in crypto bounty for additions/corrections. I want it to be accurate, but I’m sure I’ve made mistakes so could use your help please.

Thread with the list and details is here:

Great project, oldproject, everything ok but I think there are several alt competitors. Why dont you team up guys so you can fight in first league. Why many alt similiar want to be separate winners with similiar characteristics..?
