Hey @addamnorth
This is really your call. you can do a few things but i guess the below is the simplest if you wanted to “own” everything
The FTC client (feathercoin-qt) generates addresses for you. You could do it yourself with an offline secure computer and a local client…you can print out the private and public keys yourself locally and use those. Test with small amounts first and make sure you test recovering your coins :-)
Hello, I’ll ask them to add it
@Wellenreiter @Bushstar - what do you guys think of the above idea ?
Keeping on topic.
Feathercoin needs to get used… in order for it to get used it needs to be accepted where people will use/spend it.
before we can do any of that I think the team wants to use the cryptowinter to iron issues with the difficulty adjustment algo. EHRC is not really the way forward I dont think…there are better algos out there right now and currently the team are testing some of them.
once our blocktime is at a stable 1 min regardless of wild hashrate fluctuations, I think we’ll have a better chance of getting accepted as a form of payment.
@wellenreiter said in Question or two for the more informed:
@AcidD Is a special BTCPay version for Feathercoin required, or will the ‘standard’ BTCPay sufficient?
So BTCpay works in the way where you clone the official repo and then specify the coin that you want to use. In our case FTC
@kelsey its great to see you around here again.
@j_scheibel BTCPay which now supports FTC should solve all of this for you.
It can also run in a docker container for easy portability
@Wellenreiter thanks for starting this thread, it’s an important discussion.
the trigger rule sounds interesting.
Question: Say the xxx minutes = 3. Am I right in understanding that every 3 mins if a block is not found the difficulty will half.
Say the diff is 100. After 3 mins the diff would be 50, if no block is found…after another 3 mins the diff will be 25…if no block is found the diff will be 12.5…and so on ?
Is that correct ?
Holy hell! Feathercoind running on android! Amazing
Well done @Reimelt

Hey @jimmy24651
Yep - a few of us have been monitoring BitTech and @ChekaZ did put his BTC forward to buy one.
I believe there were some lies told by BitTech but i’m not 100% sure on all the details.,
from what I understood Chekaz purchased an ASIC but chose to let them host it for him (you can either have them run it for you in their Datacenter or they ship it to you)
When they powered on his ASIC at their datacenter he checked where the hashrate was coming from and I believe it was coming from rented hashpower instead of a private datacenter.
At this point in time for me it’s still unclear on if they are 100% scam or not.
very interesting. I work for a big data firm and this is really nice to see. you should put links to your github on it!
great idea, i imagine an app/service for any kind of job where the people doing the jobs can choose to get paid in fiat or split their payout between fiat and crypto
so for example if I post a job like “Help with setting up a crypto currency block explorer” or “I need someone to walk my dog weekly”
I as the job poster could say I’m willing to pay 80% fiat and 20% FTC - not sure how the numbers would pan out but yeah, it would be an interesting way to show crypto is kinda like fiat :)…just better
