[ANN] Fastcoin - FST - The Fastest coin so far in the market - is launched!!

[Zimtente]

there's a slew of shitcoins been around five minutes and worse still tokens that are getting lost in eth mess on multiple dollars each

LTC is almost $50, btc $2700, etc goes on down marketcap

FST is not even 1 cent each!
has a low coincap compared to a lot of coins

considering fastcoin has been around so long in safe hands with great dev team, new website new applications coming
2 decent exchanges

why can'y fst reach 20 cents?

of course it can easily

btc and ltc and all other coins didn't stop dreaming

if you can't even imagine it then it can't happen

that can happen easy

fastest coin, deepest blockchain

great name, name that says exactly what it does on tin

people want all that this coin offers. currently there is so many coins, not many cryoto newcomers, of which there are many will know about fastcoin, when it keeps rising they will notice and get fomo when they realise its the real deal in a sea of vaporware tokens and few month old coins, gone next year when devs run off

never with this coin. fastcoin's moment has arrived, especially with all the chaos coming to btc later in summer, blocksizes, and half of btc bigwigs at war with each other and miners, maybe a split chain and fork for it

I can see 10 cents coming weeks, month or so

once volume increases polo or bittrex will be approachable
what will help application they can see it's a killer coin in its simplicity, not some fly by night new coin, in it's 5th year, never failed
no scandal, no premine, no instamine
how many coins can claim that?

go look at instamine scams like dash and their price? there is no justice in crypto, lots of scammers
lots of great coins that should be doing much better

I think so few people are aware of coin, most old school crypto people, a few noobs which is great for them to find a great honest coin which would appeal massively to the public if only they knew

which by the way, message to devs

look at what potcoin have done, check potcoin/com

now check potwallet/com

its brilliant, like localbitcoicns for potcoins and you can trade in paypal etc

the api etc is on github too if you check!

this would be killer for fastcoin, no more directing people on twitter or facebook or on main fastcoin/ca site to cryptopia or livecoin and them having to buy btc first
they can buy direct, our very own coinbase, but no rules like kyc to follow as basically people trading themselves, decentralised

convinced. i bought.

can also offer some help. im a java ee dev. if there is something i can do - pm me ;-P

Guys.

It's our time. We can make Fastcoin reach the top 100 on coinmarketcap.

 - A coin with more than 4 years stable, with an active dev team;
 - A great community;
 - Reasonable total supply, with a RIDICULOUS price;
 - Non ICO;
 - No premined;

Last take this coin to $1. And from there, who knows.

One suggestion that I would like to give to the team is to create a slack channel. This way, we can have a place to discuss day to day.

I second that, a slack is imperative nowadays!

I mined a load of FST back in 2013-2014 using a GPU, it's great to see the coin start moving again.

I think the case for FST looks pretty promising, both in and of itself, as well as compared to other altcoins.

Let's see what we can do to help giving FST a bit more of the attention. Well done with the new web site and all that, it's a good start.

I love the language options on Fastcoin.ca
It would be killer to add Chinese

even better, have a dedicated site just for Chinese crypto fans and buyers?

pm me Cheetah if this sounds good as have a great way to implement

it would also ease adding to btc38
they would gobble up this coin. why ignore a country with 1.4 billion people?

more I think about this, let's do this.

another site, dedicated for CHINA!

that's awesome, should it be CN ?
or would Chinese people want to see zh?

I will pm you some ideas about China dedicated site

also what did you think about potwallet.com idea

google potwallet github is opensource api etc show how to do

plus in wallet when selling you just invoice someone email so can't be chargebacks if they are agreeing and paying invoice and invoice clearly states amount of fst to be sold and you accept no returns and they understand cryptocurrency sent to wallet

]gets loads more nodes and mobile wallets being used supporting network rather than sitting in exchange wallets

[almightyruler]

ZH is the ISO code for Chinese.

Perhaps flag icons may make it clearer, especially if people are not used to reading a western alphabet.

[Zimtente]

Supply similar to FTC (Feathercoin) so possibly a price of 0.08$/FST but i dont know if Fastcoin could surpass Feathercoin in term of volume of exchange because FTC has a large community too and does not take off, I am thinking about investing in a few weeks according to the evolution  thanks for the team and devs

maybe maybe not ;-) but you can not really deny that fastcoin is indeed really... FAST B-)

and just think about... how FAST you can get your lambo if you are FAST enough to invest in fastcoin x)

sorry for the bad jokes ^^

No explorer? Coin hiding something?

No explorer? Coin hiding something?

from the dev:

Thanks for your question, yes we had several 3rd party Explorers, however we are working on our own dedicated to the community.  We have found over the years as some of the 3rd party providers tend to pool resources to other coins as the markets fluctuate.   As a result the Explores they hosted on our behalf were either not responding or taken off line.  We hope to have our own dedicated Block Explorer up and running shortly and will communicate to the community once it is up.


btw german translation is wrong. (homepage)


"12 Zweite Blockzeit" should be "12 Sekunden Blockzeit"

[PeterTheGrape]

...

Why did you update the op without removing the explorers that don't work? This is an old coin that was probably mined by only a few people for the last couple years, and may well have suffered exploits that are hidden by not having a good explorer.  

add
I like the coin and think faster coins are necessary, but a lot of things need to be improved, aside from explorer. "Pending exchanges Poloniex" Cmon, you are basically telling people that you are building the coin on bullshit. Why not just do things right?

Thank you PTG for your praise and valid concerns. 

Please note we are aware of some of the improvements you mentioned, IE valid Block Explorer etc. To be perfectly frank we did not expect all the attention we have received recently by the market and were hoping to have the Block Explorer up and available before the recent set of events.  As stated before, we are working on providing a valid Block Explorer and will communicate it to the community once it is up and running. 

Thank you again for your post.

Sincerely

/Fast

Thank you Zimtente,

We have noted your correct German translation and will inform the Web Developer to make the change.  We encourage all community members to please let us know if any of the translations on the NEW Website require editing, we want to be sure we are not offending anyone, at the same time properly translating the FastCoin message appropriately in which ever Language available.

Best Regards
