Feathercoin: First Vircurex, then btc-e, then MtGox? But wait ...

[Frizz23]

Wait! There's something missing! In order to become a "mainstream coin" Feathercoin (and it's pools) needs to be seriously DDoSed  Only then can we say: "Yeah! We did it!"

Feathercoin Network: 8200MH/s
Litecoin Network: 9100MH/s

In two days Feathercoin will be > 10,000MH/s

Litecoin ... now who's your daddy?  MtGox, we are comming

I was honestly surprised... an hour ago it was just under 5k and now it's just about 8k. Anyways I'm glad for Feathercoin's achievement

The profitability is like 400% or something so that must be why. Crazy...

One of Feathercoin's advantage is that you get bigger block rewards (200) rather than Litecoin (50), so miners will like it.
And it's like a fresh version of Litecoin, so everyone can join in, and mine from the start together.

FTC FTW!

I wish i didn't sell 45 000 of them for a buttered bread :-(

LTC is almost exactly the same currency, but will block halve two years before FTC --> FTC is more or less another pump and dump...

FeatherCoin has a block reward of 200 coins and will have a total of 336 million coins. This makes it four times that of LiteCoin, this is the same position that LiteCoin was set against BitCoin.

Default port is 9336 - Forwarding this port can help if you have connection problems
Default RPC port is 9337 - This is the port you point your miners towards if solo mining
Block target is 2.5 minutes
Difficulty changes every 2016 blocks
Block reward halves every 840,000 blocks

I haven't even switched my miners over to participate in the pump and dump because it seems like too much effort.

In the meantime, I'm enjoying the lower difficulty of the LTC network. C:
