The network tries to produce one block per 10 minutes. It does this by automatically adjusting how difficult it is to produce blocks.

I think the server is pretty crappy, I can't get far past the login. Gave me a warning about an invalid SSL certificate too. The https://www.cryptonit.net/user page just gives me a blank white page.

0.03 - 0.05 ? People that buy 71k LTC from Cyberdyne and Rawted doubled his profit. Buy 71k FTC @ 0.02 = 1420 LTC Sell 71k FTC @ 0.03 = 2130 LTC (+710 LTC profit) Sell 71k FTC @ 0.05 = 3550 LTC (+2130 LTC profit) Not to mention people that buy it at very low price as 0.01 Buy 70k FTC @ 0.01 = 700 LTC Sell 70k FTC @ 0.03 = 2100 LTC (+1400 LTC profit) Sell 70k FTC @ 0.05 = 3500 LTC (+2800 LTC profit) Standard price on Googledoc book order : 1000 FTC = 20 LTC 1 FTC = 20/1000 LTC 1 FTC = 0.02 LTC Lowest price : 1000 FTC = 10 LTC 1 FTC = 10/1000 LTC 1 FTC = 0.01 LTC Lesson ? If you really need to sell your coins, don't sell it off-exchange. And this is just the beginning. Who knows if the coins shoot to 0.1 later.

You have to keep refreshing pages over and over until it finally displays. As for pricing, it's all over the place, it probably will be for a while as people experiment. There are some desperate to get rid of FTC, and some desperate to obtain FTC, so they will push the trading range.

That's okay, I managed to get my average buy-in price down to 0.0003 and that's not a typo, that's 0.3 LTC per thousand FC 0. As of today I've recovered all my initial LTC so riding on some free feathercoins from this point forward I will use this exchange as soon as they scrap the mandatory auth requirements for withdrawals.

They should show up eventually - but right now the site is down and it looks really, really down. Pretty unimpressed with the whole operation actually for a number of reasons but I am not going to go on about my loss today because of this shitty exchange.

I hope this garbage site doesn't get the bounty, since it is not a really exchange. It's a bugged out accident waiting to happen.
And the forced 2 Factor-auth (which is only for people using password as password) is totaly useless and complicating.

First it filled in the sell price so I sold a bunch for low price because it just changed when I clicked sell Now it doesn't calculate the LTC you get, so you have to fill in yourself. How hard is it to: - let seller set price - calculate how many LTC that is

I did submitted a feature request for email withdrawal as another option. I first joined that exchange when Freicoin was introduced and noticed that there were a number of users complaining about the two-factor auth. The email on withdrawal function would be welcome, that is what I use elsewhere and I can still setup GAuth on my email if I wanted to.
Are there any desktop apps for GAuth? I took a look a while ago and did not find any so use my mobile.

I personally like the Cryptonit "look and feel" of the page, very minimalist and responsive; but VirCurEx and BTC-E are much more reliable than Cryptonit, so it would be a good idea to get Feathercoin there. Especially if it goes to BTC-E, FC's price will probably soar like PPC did, at least for some time.

Dunno, I might be wrong but the site looks like it's created in Drupal, it's not going to scale well at all. It is definitely a Drupal site. I really hope they are just using it as a front-end; building the trading engine into it would make for horrible performance. Drupal is too heavy for an exchange.

The site is getting a huge amount of traffic because of Feathercoin. If the site can sort out its growing pains then it could do well. However if it does not then this traffic will be lost when the next exchange supports Feathercoin.
There are some nice features on the site but needs usability testing.

I think to start Vircurex would be a good start for FC (as for many other coins in the past) Though the side feels "sticky" it is long in in the game and pretty reliable.

At least they enabled Ajax again and the site is smooth again. Don't know how long it will last but now I'll try to buy some FC again.
I'm BlueTooth76 @ Cryptonic.net if you want to message me!
Starting pump @ Cryptonic in 13 minutes!

It needs to be FTC. I was thinking FHC when i thought there was a conflict with FTC, but i guess there's no conflict. Except for the fact thats the federal trade commission acronym

The system is a joke. I have had no end of problems, deposits gone missing that have had over 100 confirmations, then mysteriously appearing half an hour after I lodge a support ticket which is still open. I can't even find a section with the transactions in and out of the account. All sorts of nonsense on the screen, the drama getting Google Authenticator to work. My advice is wait for a better FC exchange to open unless you are desperate.

Did all the crap for google authentication and surprisingly was able to withdraw coins. After withdrawal my balance didn't change although I had the coins in my wallet already, so not working very well. Google authentication seems almost like a trap. If you lose your first scan (secret number) there is no way to withdraw anything ever again. Way too demanding to gain wide popularity.

I put up a few sells in the .1-.2 range. If it gets there and higher, i'll still have made waaay more money that I would have mining LTC.

Yup and this coin is still very fresh, it is impressive that it has an exchange so fast. Also LTC is listed on bigger exchanges etc... If FC continues it will gain value.

Cryptonit. Yeah good luck with that 'exchange'. I (and 100s of other if you read the comments) have had coin stuck for days after failed implementation of Google 2-factor, screwed up FTC launch, their botched close down of Freicoin trade etc. Seems the 'founder' basically just threw together Feathercoin trading in an afternoon to claim the bounty and didn't care to plug existing holes in the code. I wouldn't transfer anything into Cryptonit EVER after the last weeks total and utter FAIL.

My theory (considering the 3 million 'almost pre-mined' coins), the lack of developers, the 'BUY NOW' posts showing up everywhere online, the many giveaways etc. Is that this coin was never designed for longevity. It's a pump and dump to relieve less intelligent people of BTC/LTC for something that will crash and burn spectacularly within the next week or two.

It's a brand new altcoin that skyrocketed due to lots of GPU mining kids rather mining 1000 of something then 1 (cause you know, 1000 is a bigger number). I'm pretty sure 90% of Feathercoin owners/miners have NO interest in an actual feathercoin economy and are just mining to sell them for LTC, and buyers are just speculating it will go up. Hell, the Trollbox on BTC-E is basically 90% feathercoin drama and people yelling 'I have 1000 FC, #millionaire Wooohoo'.. I fear for the future of any coin when a carbon copy altcoin can get this much attention and value without providing any benefit over an existing one. NO ONE is asking for Feathercoin to be accepted as a currency. No one is talking about the developers. No one is interested in the 'ecosystem'. ALL people are screaming is 'we need an exchange' and 'GO Feathercoin, to the sky!!!'. Pretty bleak outlook..

Also, you are wrong. Very strong mining community is the foundation of a strong coin - without miners a coin dies (the miners ARE the very network of a coin after all) - and no alt has seen as many miners as FC in its early days - regardless of WHY they are mining it.

There is no 'regardless of why they are mining' in my opinion. Until a coin has some form of 'use' it is inherently worthless, and once trading it for something that has value (FC -> LTC -> BTC -> Actual services and goods offered) is not an option all you have is a useless bunch of 1/0s. Feathercoin has no foundation other then hype and the possibility/hope of trading it 'up' for something that you can sell for 'Actual value'. This is a horrible foundation for a new crypto currency and the only thing that will come of it is the start of more and more 'alt crap' coins dressed up, launched as 'the new xxxx' and dumped onto the market for a quick profit.

Are you sure? I thought BTC started with Algae and magic? Of course they all 'started as an experiment'. My point is that 'where' something comes from matters to it's future. The fact that feathercoin started with the obvious PLAN to mine a ton, sell it fast and make money matters to it's future.
Shitty analogy time:
If you meet a girl, like her, take her to dinner and end up paying for the dinner and that leads to you getting a second date after which you have sex. You could say 'I payed for sex'. Though I think you would agree that it feels a lot more genuine then just throwing a wad of $10 bills at a hooker. Right?
My point being that Bitcoin was launched with 'the best intentions' in mind. By developers and a community truly engaged in spreading it as an alternative means of payment. Lobbying, working hard, coding and asking people to tell their friends. It eventually after a long time and lots of work because 'worth' something.
Feathercoin was 'born' when someone took existing code, made minimal changes, mined a few million of it and asked a forum to hype it. 2 weeks later and for no tangible reason it's worth money.

I don't think so - that is the magic of innovation - the internet was designed by DARPA as a computer network to survive a nuclear attack - not for Facebook or disruptive cryptocurrencies or any of the other many phenomena it has spawned. It's all a part of this ongoing experiment there's no point getting upset about it.

They are just 'launched' at a whim and the 'developers' just hope they will become popular. Just a 'dirty' process I think, and it cheapens the early innovative coins by existing.

I don't think so - that is the magic of innovation - the internet was designed by DARPA as a computer network to survive a nuclear attack - not for Facebook or disruptive cryptocurrencies or any of the other many phenomena it has spawned. It's all a part of this ongoing experiment there's no point getting upset about it. The only thing that 'upsets' me is that the new 'fly by night' coins that keep popping up are just redressed 'flim flam' coins that does nothing to innovate, solve a new problem or even pretend to have any 'meaning'. They are just 'launched' at a whim and the 'developers' just hope they will become popular. Just a 'dirty' process I think, and it cheapens the early innovative coins by existing. True, someone needs to work on a coin that solves the out of control block chain growth problem which is starting to bite hard now. What exactly is the control block chain growth problem?

I fear for the future of any coin when a carbon copy altcoin can get this much attention and value without providing any benefit over an existing one.
NO ONE is asking for Feathercoin to be accepted as a currency. No one is talking about the developers. No one is interested in the 'ecosystem'. ALL people are screaming is 'we need an exchange' and 'GO Feathercoin, to the sky!!!'.
Pretty bleak outlook..
That's why I sold half to get back what I put in. At the same time though I don't see why an exact copy cannot exceed its original form, it's all the same code and if the idea is sound then "who came first" doesn't really matter.

Well, Feathercoin has just proven (so far) that you can in fact take something existing and just slap a new logo on it and be just fine. I just think that it's a little 'sad' that this happens in place of real innovation. I also dislike the idea that the 'developers' (and I use that loosely) behind Feathercoin so blatantly let a group of 'friends' mine out what right now amounts to something like 40% of the total supply in the first 12 hours, likely as 'payment' for them spreading the gospel and making at current value several hundred thousand $ if not more for their trouble. I guess i'm just a little disappointed in how things are progressing.

If you send me your address I can send you some I cannot imagine that anyone or any group of people have 40% of the coins. The coin was announced at a busy time of the day and people jumped on to this coin very fast, and I'm talking lots of people. The take up was actually much more than expected. I was looking forward to being part of community around this and did not realise we would be so large so quickly. Come on, for your own sake calm down. It is unnecessary to get this upset.

Hmm, I was a bit worried about using Cryptonit given the negative feedback - but I couldn't disagree more. I turned out to be completely easy and painless. Fast in, conversion, and transfer straight back out with no issues.
Will be using it from now on.

I'm not quite sure why you're against the freemarket, I just don't get it. Support what you love, forget the rest. I'm in the podunk midwest, certainly didn't know anyone personally when it launched. I was in trollbox, someone made a crack about Feathercoin flying or some crap.. I decided to take a peek and now I'm working to push it forward. There's no changing your mind, so ok.. you win. Everything is scam.. yada yada crash, chicken this.. whatever you guys spout all day long. Maybe I'm just a 14 year old behind the computer, maybe I'm someone that's very familiar with working with merchant solutions. In the end, we'll figure out who made the best bet. In the meantime, I hope you have a great night and you put that passion toward something you really enjoy! Best of luck trading.

I really applaud the Feathercoin supporters for being so patient and accepting with someone so arrogantly against it What is so 'arrogantly' against? I am simply stating why I believe it to be a useless currency that has no future. I am fully aware that Feathercoin has a lot of 'supporters'. Also: Patient? The currency is like a week old. I also never said it's 100% that it will fail. I just fail to see why it has any reason to succeed.

scam alert
i deposited 200 fc on that exchange and has not showed up yet after alot of confirmations..
i havent received the deposit i made 2 hours ago Status: 108 confirmations Date: 4/29/2013 16:33 To: 6zZbXzpqmRtfMy22SNeh7gLJHDSDxVbwT3 Debit: -200.00 FC Net amount: -200.00 FC Transaction ID: 58f247e5ba30d760a070db88ade599f7fd4751f24cc94eed6f93b5711e3a5bd6 be aware with this exchange in the past deposits, almost instantly it began to appear the deposit in the exchange like "100 FC incorfirmed 1/6 confirmations", this time i dint receive nothing I also haven't received an FTC deposit I made over 3 hours ago, with 138 confirmations. It's not the first time either. I had a sell order in place @ 0.034 and the price since then had been as high as 0.053 yet my order was still sitting there, so I cancelled it about half an hour ago, and the FTC coins have not been returned to my account. I also cancelled two unfulfilled LTC-BTC sell orders, and the LTC was returned to my account straight away. The FTC side of this exchange is still seriously buggy!

Lol.. Feathercoiners are such spam artists... they sit here bumping all the FC threads all day long trying to hype up their coin as much as possible because they own 100,000+ coins.
It's so sad everyone's willing to support ALT coins that just change a few lines of code and call it good. You guys will realize later on down the road when the crypto currency market is populated with 1000s of copy cat coins that this is not good for the community. It dilutes the value of crypto currencies, and makes them less useful and harder to implement into ecommerce.
My opinion is pretty much unbiased, as I currently own less than $150 worth of crypto coins. I am not trying to sway anyone's opinion to better my own position, this is just an honest observation.

I don't support Litecoin over Bitcoin, I like them both equally. But, I know what you're asking.. I think that there is room for more than one crypto currency. Litecoin is quite different from Bitcoin when you get down to the details, so it provided something new and different. I like that transactions confirm quicker. I don't think that there's any need to copy proven crypto currencies a hundred times over only changing a few parameters though. That will do more harm than good. I think there's room for other crypto currencies other than Bitcoin and Litecoin, however I think we should support and focus on IMPROVING on our current currencies rather than copying them.

I think there's room for other crypto currencies other than Bitcoin and Litecoin, however I think we should support and focus on IMPROVING our current currencies rather than copying them. Rubbish Faster confirm times only lead to slightly smaller increments in measuring security - not adding to it. You're slightly more secure after 10 minutes with BTC then you are with LTC, but let's face it the whole "confirmations" is silly considering it's either going to be instant (same for both) or delayed (same for both) payment. Scrypt offers no advantages bar being different. Litecoin simply goes a step further in the "get in on being an early adopter" game by changing the hashing algorithm. It's so sad everyone's willing to support ALT coins that just change a few lines of code and call it good. - Essentially what LTC does to BTC (Change hash, number of coins, confirm time). Basically if FTC changed the hash instead of copying scrypt it would be exactly what LTC is to BTC. You guys will realize later on down the road when the crypto currency market is populated with 1000s of copy cat coins that this is not good for the community. - LTC is an example of this trend, it simply is a copy cat of BTC. It dilutes the value of crypto currencies, and makes them less useful and harder to implement into ecommerce. - LTC does this. Now, before you get upset at me - I use LTC. I use BTC. I use FTC. I do it because it's profitable to me. I'm not saying we shouldn't, I'm simply saying that it's pretty hard to look down at FTC on one hand while holding LTC up on the other.

Litecoin changed much more of the Bitcoin code than Feathercoin changed of the Litecoin code. To compare the changes of FC's code to the changes of LTC's code is crazy. FC was developed with much less effort and less innovation than Litecoin.
The benefit to scrypt is just as you said... it's different. If somewhere down the road a devastating error is found in the SHA-256 algorithm, then it is useful to have another peer to peer anonymous decentralized currency that is built on a different hashing algorithm. The existence and growth of Litecoin is beneficial to seeing that the ideals that Bitcoin was founded upon will be around for a long time (and perhaps even longer than Bitcoin itself). Again, Litecoin is not "simply just a copy cat of Bitcoin." Yes, it shares a lot of the same code, but that is because it is based off of Bitcoin. Major parameters were changed, the hashing algorithm changed, and block speed changed. Also- it was one of the first coins to do this, now as time goes on many other coins are trying to do the same thing adding no real value to the ecosystem. Litecoin had a much fairer release than almost every single other ALT currency as well, giving a few days notice before any mining took place.
I agree LTC makes it harder to incorporate crypto currencies into ecommerce because implementing 2 coins is harder than implementing one. But, I see it as that Litecoin is here to stay, it was/is and always will be the most popular ALT currency. Therefore, it should be embraced for the good things it can do and provide for the community. Any further dilution of the crypto currencies from this point on should only be because the new coin is actually an improvement on existing coins and/or really different.

Litecoin changed much more of the Bitcoin code than Feathercoin changed of the Litecoin code. To compare the changes of FC's code to the changes of LTC's code is crazy. FC was developed with much less effort and less innovation than Litecoin.
Not really. Litecoin changed 3 major things -> Block time, Number of Coins, Hashing algorithm. Feathercoin changed 2 -> Block time, Number of Coins. Changing the hash isn't really that hard from a code perspective. The large ideal's, what I'd call major changes, such as cryptographic proof of work, use of the block chain, etc etc is identical with all 3. The benefit to scrypt is just as you said... it's different. If somewhere down the road a devastating error is found in the SHA-256 algorithm, then it is useful to have another peer to peer anonymous decentralized currency that is built on a different hashing algorithm. The existence and growth of Litecoin is beneficial to seeing that the ideals that Bitcoin was founded upon will be around for a long time (and perhaps even longer than Bitcoin itself).
Realistically if the cryptographic principles behind Bitcoin and SHA2 were compromised, I guarantee you that one of two things will happen. Either they will catch it in time and upgrade to a different algorithm for BTC, or cryptocurrencies will be dead. I can't imagine any scenario where it goes "Woops, SHA2 has been compromised, thank god we have litecoin". Again, Litecoin is not "simply just a copy cat of Bitcoin." Yes, it shares a lot of the same code, but that is because it is based off of Bitcoin. Major parameters were changed, the hashing algorithm changed, and block speed changed. Also- it was one of the first coins to do this, now as time goes on many other coins are trying to do the same thing adding no real value to the ecosystem. Litecoin had a much fairer release than almost every single other ALT currency as well, giving a few days notice before any mining took place.
You quote things such as "the block speed changed" as a major parameter, yet call it insignificant in terms of feathercoin changing it. You say LTC is an innovator because it was the first to change some parameters. I'm saying it's not an innovator because it only changed parameters. Also fair is a pretty strange notion to think about. Can you really say a currency which is meant to theoretically last for generations is more "fair" because it was announced on an obscure forum for a matter of days before launching? It's no more fair than any early vs late adopter coin on there. Someone getting into LTC today is worse off than someone who was there at launch, exactly as BTC was in the past vs now. I agree LTC makes it harder to incorporate crypto currencies into ecommerce because implementing 2 coins is harder than implementing one. But, I see it as that Litecoin is here to stay, it was/is and always will be the most popular ALT currency. Therefore, it should be embraced for the good things it can do and provide for the community. Any further dilution of the crypto currencies from this point on should only be because the new coin is actually an improvement on existing coins and/or really different.
You're judging success with hindsight and adoption rather than the features it brings. LTC is useful because it's popular can sum up the argument in that paragraph. By the same logic if FTC is adopted widely and used wildly it's useful, if it dies out it's not - see how that can't work? You should be able to judge the usefulness of something independent of it's success. I think alt currencies are a wonderful thing, but I wish they would ALL innovate more (inc LTC). I don't think we've seen an actual innovative alt coin yet. I also agree completely that many coins are simply a get rich quick scheme / ponzi scheme designed to launch, pump as much as possible making a profit before their eventual decline. It's a glorified speculation mechanism rather than trying to really be an alternative. I'm just disagreeing with your classification of FTC as one but excluding LTC on the basis that it changed one more parameter.

I go to cancel it by clicking the little blue X to the right of it, the order disappears as expected, I refresh the browser page and it's back again. I check in the CryptoCoin information page and there are no orders listed in the exchange section and neither the 20FTC or the 0.84 LTC, had the order completed, are back in the account. That's what I call buggy. I have submitted a support ticket several hours ago, not response yet.

I see a few people looking to buy FTC for LTC. I have 200 FTC I am willing to sell for 8.2LTC If someone interested is a long time member who is established here as being honest, I will go first since I am new. (gotta start somewhere, not my fault im new) But please for the love of god dont fuck me over, I recently invested a ton of money into mining and have already been ripped off of coins at two sites (altpool.com screwed me out of a bunch of FTC and litecoinrain.org out of 11.76 LTC) so I cannot afford to get screwed over by scamming.
Serious offers only PLEASE.
Successfully traded with Peleus where I went first. Thanks so much for your honesty, Peleus.

Peleus, I guess we will agree to disagree.
Opinion plays a large part in most of these arguments, and my opinion is different.
Arguing that FC is equally as innovative as LTC is an insult to Coblee who spent a lot of his valuable time implementing the scrypt algorithm into Litecoin. The fact that FC did not have to do anything at all to implement Scrypt into FC is quite less innovative IMO.
I disagree with your assertation that if SHA-256 fails, then all cryptographic algorithms fail. They are all different, perhaps a vulnerability is found in one that does not exist in the others.
I agree Litecoin is not particularly innovative itself, but that is not why I support it either. It is here to stay and a lot of people support it, so my support is kind of like making lemonade out of lemons. Also, LTC is more useful to me in a lot of ways than "just because it's more popular". That is just your opinion.
Quicker transactions are quicker transactions. Supposedly they are less secure, but after ~8 months of using Litecoin, I have never been wronged or cheated.

That's cool, I'll leave it at that and we can agree to disagree I only want to make one slight point ... I disagree with your assertation that if SHA-256 fails, then all cryptographic algorithms fail. They are all different, perhaps a vulnerability is found in one that does not exist in the others.Absolutely, in fact any vulnerability in SHA256 is almost guaranteed to not appear in scrypt. I only meant the confidence in cryptocurrencies would be gone.
