got it, I had already just made a fresh install on a new pc and started messing with the wallet.dat file there once i had my coins moved over. (removing it, replacing it… seeing what happens etc) but its good to know i can just do it on 1 pc in the future. thanks!

while this has been a great learning experience and fun to host for the community, I am unpinning this as we now have a full Feathercore / bitcore port thanks to @Bushstar

This was a very old repo and should no longer be used.

Have an updoot, sir!

Cheers :)

Hi @curiosity81

Thanks for this suggestion, I’ve raised it with our Team.

@wellenreiter

I post an issue on github. Could you please check it? :)

I’d need to ask @Bush to see if he built the release binaries with UPNP.

It’s quite possible they weren’t built with it so in that case you’d need to build the client yourself.

Welcome to openSource :)

How you wanna get even 200k listing fee?

We have to be more careful, 2fa is a great way to increase security

@acidd

you dont have to apologize, man… its no big deal to me. i am just trying to give you guys a heads up.

I should ad, it doesn’t mean I won’t do it …, I haven’t decided yet . Depends on other unrelated projects. If I did do it, it would likely be just to see if I could . Probably the only way to make such a system feasible is to design a coin that requires a ui/cpu only (ever) to be mined .

Great, you sorted it out. Thanx @Wellenreiter

Not sure for windows, but:

open a command window (cmd) type ‘netstat /help’ or ’ netstat --help’
not sure about the right syntax from the output locate the parameters to show listening ports only (in linux -l) (lowercase L) use numeric values ( in linux -n) show process information ( in linux -p) issue the netstat command again with the parameter you found out locate the line(s) with ‘127.0.0.1:9336’ identify the process listened at the end of the line open a process monitor window (strg-alt-del) and select process display right click on the process you found in the first step select stop process

If that doesn’t work for you I hope some windows guys can help.

Quote from the test:

“I can provide some info here as I was the “attacker”. I simply setup a loop to send dust to another address I control. I used my VPS as the sending wallet so the loop probably just ran as fast as the VPS would allow which could be why it limited it to 1100 transactions per block. It could also have hit the block limit of 1mb, but I’m not sure how to tell if that was the case or not. I honestly thought it would be a lot higher than 1100.”

So it might have been the block limit. Or just the vps. But with segwit the possible tx/s will increase anyway. And we can already handle a very large amount of transactions.

@jonathonas said in Feathercoin comes out as a gold rated coin on Cryptopia.:

Is it just me who couldn’t find the “Gold rate” in that photo? I think cryptopia might made some kind of mistake. Probably they forget to notice the hard fork.

It has 5 Gold stars and a 5/5 rating?

Few things:

BTC is an old coin, slow and expensive to make transactions. If “lightning” works and takes off I think this coin will fly again. But otherwise I can no longer see BTC being used for what was intended, a replacement for Fiat. I expect the Altcoins to continue to make better progress and BTC prices to normalise. BTC prices are very inflated, they are only so expensive due to marketing, it’s an inferior coin, so why is it 8000X times more ?

The government regulation bans are causing these price drop scares as people sell off their coins, as we fear more countries will continue to adopt this and this will effectively close the market.

We are still in a good place in that Cryptos are being marketed, talked about and “normal” every day people are becoming interested and buying them. Although most of them are buying them as they see them as an inflating “stock” / get rich quick strategy, but this doesn’t matter as it all helps improve the usage of the coins. At this stage I think we are showing that this can work, we now need more merchants to start accepting crypto.

I think whoever has the best security ,transaction fees and transaction time is going to corner the market for adoption. Yesterday I read Starbucks will start accepting crypto and of course won’t be accepting BTC as it’s far too slow and expensive at the moment

As I have said on many other threads, I am looking forward to having a universal wallet on my android, that is cloud based i.e no block chain files stored on my SSD! . Using my fingerprint to unlock + NFC I can tap to use Oyster (tube travel), buy my lunch , buy my plane tickets. Fly to Europe and tap and buy my lunch there. Tiny fee charges and an instant conversion of fiat -> crypto. Prices are fairly stable, just like currencies. No crazy currency conversion fees or need to carry all these different cards, but “credits” that we top up from our paychecks.
Funny thing is, we could be there in a few years.

Small shops hate credit cards, due to the high fees. If they accept crypto they only pay fractions of a pence, meaning we can buy our candy from a newsagent and not have to carry coins! etc

Futures looking bright, don’t care about the prices, care about the regulators! :)

My personal opinion:

A hard fork may be required for technical reasons, like the move from the Scrypt to the Neoascrypt algorithm as @Wrapper mentioned above.

In that case the dev team set the fork time to a block number several month in the future and will announce the new version as mandatory update and clearly announce, that the new version will be incompatible with the old one and everybody will have to change to the new version. The block number, where the technical change will click in will be announced at the same time.
Users then have the time to update their wallets.
If users refuse to update their wallet as wrapper mentioned above, there will be a hard fork, but typically the ‘old’ version of the wallet and the corresponding block chain dies within some weeks.

A hard fork to create a new coin is useless in my opinion. It doesn’t help the original coin and it would be more efficient and easier to maintain for the forking developers, if they create a new genesis block for their ‘forked’ chain and start from scratch.
I’m totally against this type of hard fork, even if we technically can’t hinder people doing it, as the software is public domain, and I also believe, that the forked coin has less chance to survive than a new coin.
‘Feathercoin Classic’, the thing wrapper mentioned above, didn’t make it even for 6 month.
