[quote]Yep, FTC/BTC is more important.[/quote]
Agree with this.
-
What you should really be asking your self is will FTC become more and more useful? Don’t equate FTC’s success to fiat.
Compare it to the goods or services you can trade it for… Go to the Feathercoin Market and get spending.

First there need to be some products to spend it on. I am not spending just for spending it. Must wait til it is something there that i need.
The best for now is to exchange for BTC or just hold.
The local pub in Norway don`t yet take feathercoins as payment.

[/quote]You could always ask them to.
After all, the Oxford Blue said yes…

btc-e sell walls are big problem, I am not very optimistic about price in next few months.

[/quote]I think there needs to be more development in the merchant API / services for feathercoin and more promotion of those services. Merchants wont accept it as a form of mainstream payment if they have little to no options of integrating it with their e-shops.
We should really promote the benefits of accepting feathercoin to online merchants around the world and show them what they are missing
-
Totally agree about the merchants. Make it simple, really buff the edges off the whole process.

I’m waiting doge to calm down, if that’s going to happen.
doge/btc had over 10k btc volume, it’s decreasing.
doge/btc was around 30, then pump to ~300, people will dump them eventually.By the way, doge still having more hashrate than litecoin, not sure if it’s supposed to happen for such long time or not.
May not affect FTC directly, but sort of indirectly.

https://www.multipool.us/stats.phpIts mostly the multi pools mining DOGE, once this trend is over. The hash rate will quickly side towards any alt currency that’s most profitable.
Doge came at the right time just when the multi pools were getting bigger.If Feathercoin can somehow be one of that, we can get lots of public attention quickly…
Of course, the flipside will be the multipools leaving once it is no longer the most profitable coin. -

[/quote]The walls are not the problem, they are not even walls, they are lots of small sales bunched together by the quantizing effect caused by the lack of decimal places on BTC-e.
[/quote]You are so wrong. There are FTC worth of thousands BTC spread on the sell side and those are btc-e hoarded coins during “delisting”.
Just look at buy side, where situation looks completely different! -
Does anybody else think that Bitcoin is about to leap in value again ?
I think that since the turn of the new year the price has held steady, which breeds confidence, but investors have probably been unsure becsuse of the Chinese legislation that went into force on the 31st of January. Now this has come to pass with no negative effect on btc value I think there may be more investment and a move back up to the December high of $1200 …
Then could will see ltc back up again to $35+ and hopefully $1 ftc (fingers & toes crossed)

[/quote]Yes… I am thinking about this too.
Bitcoin lost only max 5% of its value briefly throughout the past 2 weeks on any negative news. It then recovered in a day or two. -
[quote]Over 5 million FTC on the sell side. Think about it. There are 30 million FTC around and 5 million of them are at the sell side of a one trading service. Soon 6 million. Then it’s roughly 20% of all FTC existing on a BTC-E wall. [/quote]
And one of these days someone is going to scoop up bigtime.
6 million FTC at say 0,00075 is not more than 3,6 million USD or pocket change in the world of investment.
Hold, mine and buy all you can while price is in the 30-40 range, because you will not regret it.
-
My opinion here:
Crypto is still sooo young. Not even 0.00001% of the world knows what it is, how it works. We are all early adopters.
The price will rise as soon as it becomes mainstream and then there is no limit.
Bitcoin to 1m $ each is not impossible.
My predictions about Feathercoin. Lets get a solid target to 1$ on the 21th of april. That should be achieveable :)

I do enjoy these topics when they come up. Always a good chance to see what everyone’s perspective is.
I think FTC is in a lull. Doge has been taking up alot of mining, and the FTC network hashrate is now around 3Ghs. I’m wondering myself, what is going to be the catalyst to ignite another buy rally.
Every day more and more people are getting involved one way or another. I think this is all the calm before the storm.

[quote]Bitcoin to 1m $ each is not impossible.[/quote]
Nothing is impossible, but 1 million is highly unlikely.
FTC at 1 USD is well within what is possible in the short term.

[/quote]There are approximately 144 Bitcoin blocks generated every day, which translates to 3600 new bitcoins/day. If the price of BTC is $1M you need either miners who hold bitcoins long term, or 3,600,000,000 USD, every day. *fresh* fiat, not USD->BTC->USD loop. I bet we won’t see BTC at $1M anytime soon.
-
I also find this topic interesting and insightful as to what is others’ perspectives on this matter.
One thing is crucial: Crypto is still in its early days… if/when adoption gets to lets say 50% of the population, it is really mind boggling (is this the word?) to think on BTC or FTC “prices” or exactly what impact in our daily lives should we be expecting…
But from here to there, there is a long and steep road ahead, and ultimately it is the coin adoption that will drive its value…

[/quote]I honestly think that doge is the worst thing for the crypto cause. If I were just starting again and heard of doge coins actually succeeding I wouldn’t be as likely to take cryptos as seriously as I currently do. If we ever want to see cryptos go mainstream then coins such as doge which is based on a well known meme shouldn’t be able to become a accepted currency. There are currently only a few coins that I think could go mainstream. Those being Bitcoin, Litecoin, Worldcoin, and of course Feathercoin. Each have their own advantages and disadvantages (Feathercoins being the community in my mind) while still being able to hold a level of seriousness.

[/quote]FTC being 1 USD is VERY probable. In fact I think we will see Feathercoins up to 3-4 USD in the near future. What Feathercoins really need is for merchants to start accepting them. That will guarantee our coins success.
EDIT: Yes I realize in the post I said I can’t see it above $1.30… i’ve changed my mind 8)

[/quote]no problem :) I just happen to saw it this morning too.
been indexing any news with ‘bitcoin’, ‘btc’, ‘litecioin’, ‘feathercoin’, etc for months now (via Bing API) to do a bit of big data and my own API source
