I think many newbies to the crypto technology have one concern (apart from keeping the wallet secure).
Where can i spend my coins? Many look at the limitations BTC has and will be far more reluctant to invest
in a coin with less users and less places to spend. If Feathercoin could definitely be exchanged on this site
for bitcoin then you could very well attract miners who no longer see BTC mining as profitable but have the
hardware to mine alt coins.
There are so many coins on the market that it is extremely hard for newbies to know where to go outside of
Bitcoin… i myself have taken a long time to join this forum and that was due to my trust in the people involved
as opposed to monetary value.
perhaps the lower value of Feathercoin could be promoted as a good reason to start buying but the exchange
idea would probably encourage people to ‘dabble’ in alt coins
