New Coin comparison sites metrics
-
I was also looking at the coin comparison at CoinGeko., FTC shows up well (16th) overall, despite some of the metrics not favouring us. i.e. does not include Longevity, or where items are posted on the forum.
The forum is more our area of discussion than Redit and Forks obviously favours Bitcoin. It is the quality of Github changes or the need for them, too many might indicate bad or piecemeal programming.
However, there is definitely scope to improve Feathercoin’s standing. For instance, join Github, give us some Stars / Watches.

Funny thing, I just wrote them this morning at [email protected], I was specifically asking about the development metric methodology. I suggested that it doesn’t really take into account side development. There are lots of projects which wouldn’t even hit the core coin source. I am a big proponent of both FTC and BlackCoin and both have the same issue, there is a lot of development being done around the coin which isn’t captured in any way.

Biggest issue with Feathercoin is liquidity.
BTC-e being the largest exchange for FTC and very high difference between sell & buy margin (0.00007 and 0.00006, no order in between, 17% difference) is one of the culprits of low trade volume. Other exchanges (eg. Cryptsy) just follow the btc-e price tags.
Community should figure out solutions for liquidity of FeatherCoin. Currently it is in 46th position with only $6,600 trade volume with last 24 hours. (http://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/volume/24-hour/)

Hmm I see plenty of Scrypcoins which can join Neoscrypt.
I don’t see very good future for them with KNC Titans on the way…

I agree Mirrax, but there are a lot of potential futures. I love my ASICs they are quite cheap (all second hand) and efficient. I’m sure the Titans will be pointed at Litecoin first, they’ll need the cash straight back. The scrypt extra memory has meant less of a rapid increase in power / efficiency, than with the Bitcoin ASICs.
I know from a developer point of view, the hash change is more of anti ACP potential. Once we get out of the Litecoin shadow, large player coin swapping or double spending won’t be such an option. There’s still the Multipools of course, with their evil use potential for all coins.
