The History of Feathercoin
-
It’s coming up to Feathercoin’s 3rd anniversary and unlike “businesses and endeavours” in previous times, all the important information about what happened, and when, is in the Blockchain and described in the Forum. (Didn’t we have a countdown once)
I would love to help / do it and was thinking that it could be on FTC Github, and allocate editor to member who fancies pulling the patches. Also extra charts could be made as @ Wellenrieter and I developed some scripts to extract some data from FTC log files, for analysis during development of eHRC, or some charts that were lost in the 2 Forum updates.
However, I am already limited anyway, and over stretched with OpenTrafficSurvey etc…
Maybe kick of with a preliminary set of Chapters Headers to get a “Time Line”,

@wrapper screw the history, focus on future :)

@Mirrax, are you sure you aren’t deliberately trolling all my posts?
-
-
Why don’t you make your own thread about the “Future of FTC” and leave off Trolling my threads?
-
“It’s an imbicile that doesn’t learn from history” @wrapper
-
PLUS : UNOCs is EXACTLY what I want to DIG UP , very much so. Make sure that doesn’t happen again …
-
Jesus, I could not agree more.
While @mirrax definitely makes a point. I think we are all already focused on the future but …could maybe be more diligent in that area ? (unless you are just Trolling)
But No, @Wrapper is 100% right. Feathercoin should have a timeline.
Having a detailed, logged timeline is the best way to reference the past so you can, in-turn, focus on the future.
+1 @wrapper
it’s also a great way for investors and speculators to see what’s been accomplished, just having something that looks good and can be updated is worth something already.

Just for the record, I am not trolling.
I am all in for creating roadmap.But unfortunately FTC history is walking scam, fraud and scandals.
I don’t think it is any good to dig in this sort of garbage.
It is like very very much negative PR. -
@Mirrax I can’t understand why you are still posting on the forum considering how bad you think everything was?
-
-
I’m interested in point number 2 and 5. According me I think that this two points from history will be crucial for the future.
-
I am obviously want to emphasis the hard work and how much discussion and developments was ahead of their time. Basically because FTC was a much more civilised discussion area for Alternate Currency Developments in particular, how much work such as Ruthie Bushnell did…
It will make a very interesting time line with an agreed paragraph about what happened.
As I say,it is all in the forum to be “dug up”.
-
What about some ideas of what should be included in the Feathercoin Timeline?
We could see by who gets the most kudos for the earliest, most “important”, or how cool / funny : a link is:
Genesis Block
Feathercoin has Identical genesis block with Litecoin
http://forum.feathercoin.com/topic/46/identical-genesis-block-with-litecoin/4Shame we can’t see day? Forum currently just say 3 years ago.
-
As well as use by journalist etc the Timeline would help in other ways e.g…
I have also noted that there is no entry in Wikipedia for Automatic Checkpointing, or Peter Bushnell etc, which means Feathercoin could start getting a mention without being “pulled.”
The Timeline would make it easy to do that…
-
Here is the genesis block, shared with Litecoin

PR for whom?
The purpose of a forum is to serve the needs of the forum.
That means understanding and preventing BS like UNOCs.
Remember when BTC ppl discussed sketchy crap in secret.
Let’s not be in secret.
