Today some clients on the Feathercoin blockchain stopped synchronizing.
The team has worked on the problem and released version 0.18.2 of feathercoin-core and gui, which contains a fast fix for the problem.
If you compile the code yourself, get the latest code from “https://github.com/FeatherCoin/Feathercoin/releases” as soon as possible.
If you use a precompiled binary/package for windows download the latest version from “https://github.com/FeatherCoin/Feathercoin/releases”
If you use Linux installation packages, run the OS specific update process for the feathercoin package and if that fails get the latest package from “https://software.opensuse.org/package/feathercoin”. Select ‘community packages’ for your distribution and check that he version displayed is 0.18.2
A detailed description how to install /update the software can be found here at the Feathercoin forum
It has turned out, that the Feathercoin P2Pool nodes are misbehaving due to a flaw in the Feathercoin core software.
An immediate update to Feathercoin v0.16.3 for all P2Pool nodes is required.
All other nodes should use v0.18.x versions of Feathercoin core!
Details of the upgrade process are here
If you want to connect to the thestnet there is at least one wallet online on p2pool.neoscrypt.de .
The you may receive warnings about ‘last block xxx week ago’ or ‘too old’

I looked there wasn’t anything, now there are 6!
It is also great to see FTC as one of the established coins, whereas other coins are trying to get voted on, FTC is already
neat!
@acidd wasn’t too interested in selling back to fiat, meant it more figuratively! Thanks for the info though, I’ve heard good things thus far about localbitcoin and Bittylicious!
This was a generic problem with any coin, especially if you are mining FTC dust, Phoenixcoin was used as an example! I’ve moved it back to FTC discussion.
If you start an encrypted wallet, you have access to all functions, but if you actually try to send coins, you are requested the password.
This happens only once for the running wallet.
The encryption also is a security measure against someone getting access to your computer and the wallet.dat file.
By copying the wallet.dat the intruder gets your private keys and full access to your coins, if the wallet is not encrypted.
@wrapper True…I don’t know enough about all of this to have any real opinion as to whether it would be beneficial to the coin. I’m simply on a hunt for knowledge at this point.
