Hi all,
As I’ve been trading and exploring the world of cryptocurrencies, I’ve been hungry for breaking news. After checking out Coin Desk, Twitter, Facebook, and the various forums the other day, I stumbled on this:

https://forum.litecoin.net/index.php?topic=1370.0

It made me think of how I was introduced to Bitcoin. Basically, a friend told me about the Silk Road and what it was all about. He explained that the buyers and sellers use Bitcoin to trade. I was intrigued in a number of ways. I had to see this Silk Road!

I got TOR up and going and went to the Silk Road site. It was so incredible to discover this underground marketplace that traded solely in Bitcoins. If you ever want to see Bitcoins in action, check out this website.

Anyways, it’s a huge frickin’ market and they all trade with a single currency: BTC. After checking out the Atlantis site I realized it’s essentially a Silk Road duplicate that trades with Litecoin and Bitcoin. if you get to the Atlantis site on TOR it describes Litecoin as the “high return investment,” and Bitcoin as the “safe investment.”

Ok, so what’s the point matey?

The point is, there’s a lot of people trading in the Dark Web. With Litecoin now in the trading picture it makes me wonder if acceptance in the Dark Web is like a stamp of approval or something. Think about it, sites like these on TOR are drug deals. People in that market tend not to muck around.

What if FTC were being used in the Dark Web?

I’d love to hear everyone’s thoughts about this. Would it be good for FTC overall? Are there moral issues?

Please, discuss.

Signed up and commented. The basic gist was: you add FTC, you have another currency that can be traded. Duh. For them it means more transaction revenue. This is good for them and good for FTC. Money has to move!

… and on a side note, it will also add value to the very much undervalued FTC. This is good for us. 8)

Hi all,
I’m new to Feathercoin and cryptocoins in general. It’s quite an exciting time. Looking forward to trading and being part of the overall push to have a virtual currency we can use everywhere.

I’ll be honest. I find the trading and speculation particularly a rush. Watching the portfolio on your iPhone going crazy during a market spike is a great feeling. Beyond that however, I wonder, “who knows how far these cryptocurrencies will get?” It’s like being involved in the internet when it first broke waves in the 90’s.

I really hope cryptocurrencies go mainstream as it will certainly change the way the world does business. It’s a revolutionary idea really.

Looking forward to fun, profit, and the future of cryptocurrencies!
