This is your coin. If you believe we need to head a specific direction, speak up.

Well i had an idea that everyone here should accept feathercoin as a payment for their ebay items, even if not many people use feathercoin to purchase their item, people will still see feathercoin as a payment option and probably look it up and get interested in the way our coin works. At the moment I have nothing to sell on ebay, but as soon as I do I’m going to start putting feathercoin everywhere :)

#1
Creating awareness around the web about Feathercoin
-) Actually the most stable cryptocurrency
-) Actually the most profitable coin to mine
-) Accepted for payment on more places
-) Accepted for trading on other markets
-) More PR on Twitter/FB other social medias

#2
Clear rumors about Fearhercoins (premined, …)
#3
More
-)Promotions, Giveaways, Contests,… on other places like the forum

#4
Expanding the Feathercoin GAMES offers

#5 Creating a physically Feathercoin/ Feathercoin gift cards

Many things have been done/ in progress - imo the team/forum is on the 110% right way

[b]1. Creating awareness about feathercoin[/b]

Spread word of coin and community’s hard work much also outside of this forum. Always advertise to join and read here for more
Publish news large aroung different forums, media social media etc. Always remenber to mention this community
PR on any place, where bitcoin has been mentioned and keep us on people’s talk around. Everyone knowing btc, should have at least heard of ftc
Even bitcointalk alt-coin area has turn to be a trollbox, ftc name must be seen there often because new people find first bitcoin forums.
–> This bring more miners to join to make network stronger and this way get more people holding and using ftc
–> This bring more people to buy ftc and hold market value stable, untill we are strong enought at merchant adoption to give large use value for coin
–> This bring more merchant adoption that is finally the way to bring coin some real and big value

[b]2. Merchant adoption, market, and dev support for tools[/b]

Get ftc accepted and used in more and more places
Bushstar’s development list in other post is about many tools to support that
Maybe feathercoin.com need site where is information for companies (see http://bitcoin.org/en/bitcoin-for-businesses). And easy and fast form to contact team for support if they have interest accepting coin.

[b]3. Easy service to buy and sell ftc without using bitcoin[/b]

Mt.Gox accepting ftc, would be great and easy answer for this thing. Maybe best way make this finally happen is working to 1 & 2
Also should keep eyes open for other options. Sorry to hear bitstamp is not concidering alt-coin at moment, but there is also other services.

[b]4. Technical improvements for coin[/b]

Client updates, technical improvements, security
In this category most important part is security of coin

And keep up that good spirit in community! As a rare writer I also want to say big thanks and greetings for feathercoin development team! When reading on forum I can see hard work team is doing and at same time team warmly welcome’s and notice all new small members to community.

Excellent suggestions!

I appreciate everyone’s patience. While this might not be the ‘flashy’ stage of coin development, it’s absolutely critical. The amount of time behind the scenes is somewhat staggering. We’re now in a place where can comfortably launch different initiatives and measure response.

Let’s keep them going!

1:More public awareness-maybe even have an outside forum/computer environment specialization (ex.Pet stores,Feed stores,feather related stores),Environmental friendly,Nationwide Special events on and off computer,show folks that you can live off feathercoins alone–this means alot of work and planning and even delevopment(Food,Gas,Rent,Car payments,Entertainment,Public transportation(Buses,trains,Taxies and even planes or helicopters and bikes and motorcycles),Create a Feathercoin ATM to accept old Electronics /phones etc.Get the t-shirt designs in play and they will market themselves.
2:Phone App for folks to use
3:Establish and maintain feathercoin freebie sites
4:Be Ready for Scrypt Asics to effect us–may already be here: (bitbar asic)
5:Expand on the marketplace–With Goal of it being better then Ebay and Amazon.
