Please update to the latest version, 1.14.2. Your wallets from previous clients are fully compatible with the new client and testing has been successful.
Fastcoin has gained some ground in 2021 with a new marketing team, additional developers and a lot of new interest. There were a few changes that needed to be made, this was to help maintain the overall health of the blockchain. This is especially so for protecting the blockchain in the event that, at any point, Fastcoin inherits an influx of miners attempting to stress the network.
Fastcoin now supports merge mining, auxiliary proof of work, or AUX-POW. This method was first used by Namecoin in 2011 and was always planned for a future release someday. Fastcoin was almost too fast. In order to maintain a fully stable blockchain, not only for clients but also for exchanges, the 12 second block target was extended to 60 seconds. This is to ensure both stability and speed which go hand and hand for those hosting servers. Looking forward to seeing where Fastcoin finds it's place in the future.
