FTC - The #1 choice for new miners.
-
If we did this and new ppl can start mining in minutes, I will create a whole series of videos to promote that. I have done work in mass marketing of videos and can see how this would work well. We make a template 1 min video how to start mining. Then we update the titles to “How to get Bitcoin through mining” “How to get Ethereum through mining” “How to profit in BTC from mining” “How to profit in Monero from mining”…to get a huge span of keywords. To make it honest, the ends of the template video mentions going to an exchange and using your newly mined FTC to get any coin you like.

We’ve already been discussing bringing things into the auto build, like a GPU Miner. We also have a means to binary download a secure compile.
Obviously that is work for someone to set up, and could only be, say, a windows version due to graphics drivers proprietary whatknots.
In order to get over these problems members have produced guides, there are now good guides on the Github readmes. We tending to move info there (upstream to head) (so it may help you make a video)…
e.g. Neoscrypt mining :

@wrapper Thanks! And don’t get me wrong, I very much appreciate the work done on FTC and don’t mean to undermine the effort involved in every step. Making the user end simple is always a ton of work in every industry. Just putting my 2 cents in on where i think time is best spent and what i could do to help.
Thanks so much to Ghostlander for the miners and neoscrypt and all the support, and everyone else. But again, sorry constructive criticism from someone contributing very little- github links are terrifying to newbies. A webpage on the FTC site with on button to download and a description of what to do with the file you downloaded would help new people a lot. Doesn’t require a dev. Just a decent writer and web person.

@Bsotnikow, If the Github links are terrifying, think how brilliant you will look to everyone else, when you are a Github expert in a few weeks study? :)

I agree the website does need more information on there.
I might try and work with @AmDD - since I think he has access to the site.
The “How to start” section on Feathercoin.com definitely needs a mining section with an easy/newbie guide to follow.

I am adding it to the Wiki on GitHub today. That should be a “start” as a place to dump howtos.
-
OK, here is a start…
-
This is a great idea

Adding more content to the getting started page is a good idea. I can try to draft something up and start moving towards this.
