To me FTC got a limited supply same as BTC and most of the Crypto. This is good, it mean on the long run it’s something rare.

FTC is ASIC resistant, it means everyone can contribut even on CPU mining (what I did personally) so to me FTC is better on this point than BTC.
In fact I mine both currently, but to be able to mine BTC I had to invest some money (we are talking k€ here) and that it’s not everybody can do.

Last thing, FTC gonna reach his real value when is use gonna be democratised. And this is the most important, if no one use it, no matter the advantages or the hashrate, the market cap gonna land to 1 satoshi, as lot of crypto end.

So as a merchand, I’ll accept for this year comming FTC, gonna look very strange for most of people but to me it’s mean something. :)

I really like the philosophy of FTC, more than BTC actually, and I kind of dont care about the market, I care about the uses, this is the real matter to me at least.

My 2 Cts,

Well we are several new recrut wanting to see FTC up and running, so let’s make ths coin alive. And it will rise again. :)

ftc-fountain.be annoucment

ftc-fountain.be is a feathercoin faucet.

How it works?

The aim of ftc-fountain is to promote feathercoin as a secured, decentrelized, ASIC resistant, maintained, open-sourced crypto-currency.

ftc-fountain works on donation, there is no advertising and no customer data collection on the website.

If you want to help us please make a donation here : 6knuNae3rcX7iL8YvWSSGCzvcNpXkhcKSb

We use a hot FTC address for sending the rewards.
Each week a random amount from 1 to 100 feathercoins is sent from stock FTC address to the hot FTC address.
We calculate the reward this way : hot FTC address balance / 100 = reward (with max reward = 1 ftc).

The website devlopment isn’t finish yet, but we hope to open end of the month.

Thanks to the many donators and your patience.

Stay tuned !

Hi there,

This post is here to ask if we have a todolist somewhere in the forum ?

Otherwhise we should open a category called “TODOLIST” or “TASK” or whatever you like.

And create in it task that have to be done, then we could wait for skilled member to take the load of the task.

Here an exemple of task to be done :

• On this page : https://www.feathercoin.com/merchants-who-accept-ftc/
  remove following dead links
  : newloge [dot] com
  : coinverted [dot] com
  : bitbooks [dot] co
  : alpenpowerpro [dot] com
  : bitezze [dot] com
  : amsterdamrentals [dot] com
  : igotspots [dot] com
  : pock [dot] io

• Replace :
  : https://www.hollowwear.com/store -> to -> https://www.hollowwear.com/

• This one in maintenance mode :
  : http://www.51attack.com/

I can do this task, if the webmaster is no more available. ;)

And of course this task call an other one : Find new merchants who accept FTC. :)

Hu champagne, it’s my first involment as a dev. <3

Hi Peeet,

Nice find.

About Coinmarketcap, I think they anyway focus on US/UE exchanges (but since zero fees is now forbidden in China maybe a change need to be made or have been done (I didn’t check recently).

About Gecko, I don’t know such thing.

Feel free to contact them, and expose the issue, Gecko is quite reactive.

As this is open source no need to be a dev or whatever to help. Go ahead and keep us updated of the avancement.

If you need help in this task, feel free to ask. :)

Best,

And here the [FR] translation. :)

I did some improvment in the story, feel free to google translate it, and tell me if something is wrong. :)

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2170886

The main purpose is to enjoy what we are doing, you got a point there @Moonman :)

My best wishes to all feathercoiners !

Now let’s say someone give you a FTC adresse and you’d like to check if this address is valide.

# ./feathercoin-cli validateaddress 6knuNae3rcX7iL8YvWSSGCzvcNpXkhcKSb
{
    "isvalid" : true,
    "address" : "6knuNae3rcX7iL8YvWSSGCzvcNpXkhcKSb",
    "ismine" : false
}

Now we want to know the received FTC of this address :

# ./feathercoin-cli getreceivedbyaddress 6knuNae3rcX7iL8YvWSSGCzvcNpXkhcKSb
0.00000000

Warning this is based on your local blockchain information, so if you are not fully sync this data is incorrect. ;)

To be continued with other command when my blockchain gonna be sync. ;)

A bit far for me too but, depending on the date and the trip price maybe I can arrange me a “business trip”. ^^

Very good idea !!!

Here a calculator. :)

@work2earn said in Creating a Feathercoin wallet in Linux Ubuntu:

@looarn Hi I found where that menu is, - when select feathercoin wallet, the top menu appears at the top left of monitor replacing ubuntu commands.

Hey,

Kind of the usual on ubuntu right ?

Otherwise please fill an issue on the GitHub. :)
https://github.com/FeatherCoin/Feathercoin/issues

For the sync of the blockchain depending on your configuration it can take a while, so normal to me.

@Wellenreiter Yes “have to” was a bit to much., I should use “can”. ;)

I find autobus for less than 100€ go and back.
But it’s like 40 hours of autobus. :D

I’ll have look on carsharing, maybe I can find something less time consuming.

Hey,

On linux you will have to build the wallet (well I do it this way).

I did it by following the Guide made by @AcidD , and it goes pretty well.

@vigospqr

Kind of tighten planning for me, but I really want to make it.

Let me check for train / plane / boat. I’ll keep you updated.

What is Essex BTW ? Some hostel brand ? :)

@Wellenreiter Looks to me that we lost the emoticons. :o

I think for that a @ghostlander is needed. :=)

Is the noise a issue for you ? :)

If not you can have look in server PSU, you can find on ebay very cheap PSU with good power 1000W, and depending on the brand Gold or superior rate.

Be aware those are loudy.

Otherwhise no choice than EVGA 1600W that can handle quite a load of GPU, for a relative silent PSU.

@cendana287 said in Oldie (57 years) from Malaysia:

Hello Everyone.

Making my first post here as required. I’ve done some basic research on cryptos and decided to add Feathercoin to my portfolio. It may be ‘small’ based on daily volume. But there are things I like about it and I have the feeling it will be much bigger in the coming weeks and months. I’m putting some money to where my mouth is.

Welcome,

Very glad to see some “senior” getting interest in Feathercoin. :)

What are the aspect that make you chose FTC, if that’s not indiscret ? :)

Best,
