I thought it was dying. What is with the growth, is it a pump or is there a legit reason for the rise? Thanks in advance.  |

Make sure you back up your wallet regularly! Unlike a bank account, nobody can help you if you lose access to your BTC.

FTC is broken. You can't mine it. I was on Big Verns pool and all his blocks are orphaned. It shows he has 90% of the network as well.

someone probably built their own block chain and mined it. since it is longer they used a ton of hashing power when the network hashing power was low and replaced the original block chain. The result is a ton of orphans as all the good transactions were wiped out. Now the new fake chain is in place someone who injected it has a ton of coins to sell into the market. |

They can try to replace the fake chain and that will orphan all FTC transactions from the point they fix the chain until the present. That will probably require distributing the chain to dedicated miners and making it long enough that it beats out the current chain. But that means they will wipe out legitimate as well as fake transactions a second time. Basically the chain is hijacked and the coin is now worthless. Someone is making a killing on the fake chain |

What that means is that anyone can come in and add their own blocks claiming all the rewards. those are fake blocks so they will supersede real transactions so those transactions will be lost. the majority of real miners will drop out because they don't want to risk getting all their rewards orphaned. so the only miner will be the fake miner and a bunch of idiots who don't know better. |

btc-e has got to be asleep at the wheel on this one. I can't imagine why they haven't immediately suspended FTC. This is going to screw so many people when the "good" transactions are reversed. The only viable alternative I see for the developers is to try to rollback the chain. They aren't going to be able to take the chain back I don't believe without doing so. |
Charlie Kelly: I'm pleading the 5th. The Attorney: I would advise you do that. Charlie Kelly: I'll take that advice under cooperation, alright? Now, let's say you and I go toe-to-toe on bird law and see who comes out the victor? The Attorney: You know, I don't think I'm going to do anything close to that and I can clearly see you know nothing about the law.

for sure, the block chain is considered valid. So they can get the ftc on to btc-e just fine. once they have the ftc on btc-e and have their transactions confirmed (by their won miners of course) they sell their ftc for btc and then there is no reason to keep the chain going they can just drop it. |

One reason: Purely FTC mining is 'apparently' more profitable right now, so they'll continue to do that and steal money using the blocks until its less profitable than just mining BTC I'd guess. |

What seems to be happening is people are trying to perform 51% attacks on the network. But that doesn't mean it's dead, that means it's getting more attention. The price continues to rise, the difficulty continues to drop, and the hash rate continues to grow, especially on p2pool. In other words, all is going according to plan. As the difficulty drops and the price rises, more miners will join and the 51% attacks will become more difficult. Watching a coin get attacked on one day and declaring it dead is just silly. The community is rallying support in a major way, and while it's a little rocky ATM, the future is MORE than bright. The first marketplace launches tomorrow at http://market.feathercoin.com and that's going to make the coin more valuable. http://bitgrenade.net has a VERY active FTC game that people are obviously enjoying, the community is growing like wildfire, and the developers are coming out with new features all the time. I don't call that dead by any stretch of the imagination. |

Be very careful with this FTC pump. If you are watching attentively on trade history, you can see that a lot of huge sell order were pulled, not bought.

BTC-e has raised confirms to 100. This attack has failed.
Looks like the attack was a complete success to me. |

I thought it was dying. What is with the growth, is it a pump or is there a legit reason for the rise? Thanks in advance. If you thought it was dying, then you probably best stay away from trading coins. BTC-e has raised confirms to 100. This attack has failed.
Kind of a bit late BTC-e, the block rate is back down to 2min 30sec, no point in 100 confirms anymore, just an inconvenience for their customers, and shows a lack of understanding of the problem. CNC is open to exactly the same kind of attack until it's block time gets down to normal, and it's still sitting on 6 confirms. The solution is to use a list of trusted peers for confirmations. |

I sent 1600 FTC to BTC-e yesterday, and it's got >200 confirms now, but is not showing on BTC-e.
Something fishy going on, for sure.

I have stopped using BTC-e for FTC, they are hostile to it. I use Cryptsy for mining output, confirms of FTC deposits are nice and fast. Lets face it, who want's to wait for 120 confirms on the pool, then another 100 for BTC-e.

You stop mining and wait for the dominant fork to emerge. ~BCX~ THat's the whole problem, I'm not mining at all and left the client running overnight. I just wanted my remaining FTC out. It's got 15 connections and it says it's "up to date", also the transaction shows up in the block explorer. So what's the deal here? |

When the dominant fork emerges, the devs will need to release a new client with a check point,
Which they did. So now the attackers moved to DDoS the web site. Someone REALLY doesn't like FTC. But like any attack on Bitcoin, it won't last forever. |

Probably the people that pointed the feathercoin.org page to the yacoin.org site. I know some yacoin people talk about using botnets to CPU mine. |

Yes, you can be up to date, on the wrong fork.When the dominant fork emerges, the devs will need to release a new client with a check point, you re DL the block chain and life is beautiful. Any coins you mined on the wrong aka smaller fork, sent, spent or backup will be worthless on the dominant fork larger fork. A better way to think of a 51% attack, is a complete hostile takeover. ~BCX~ Why are you trying to scare him without knowing what is up? A few days back I had sent FTC into Btc-e and it was stuck on 8 confirms (needed 10) in their deposit page even though in network was above 50. It got there eventually. Its an issue with Btc-e; nothing to do with forked blockchain bla bla. Some people had earlier reported success by sending another small transaction to the same account. Maybe you can send 1 FTC and wait. |
