Welcome to the Forums!

@acidd @encrypter Hey Guys! You can find my travis-ci build stuff in my GitHub branch - https://github.com/natedavis/feathercoin

It’s all in 0.9.6.2 branch currently on that fork. I am still running into problems with it building. I had it working months ago, but am just getting my toes wet. I suspect it will take someone just a few hours to get it building properly if we follow Bitcoin Core’s lead.

@alkaline18 OK, thanks.

@alkaline18 Yeah, I can make that work.

@alkaline18 I would love to be part of this conversation also. Thanks.

We could start by forking the litecoin implementation and see how far we can get…

Hey Team, hope this post find everyone well. Are there any developers or users that want to help take on the task of porting bitcore and insight-api to feathercoin?

https://github.com/bitpay/insight-api
https://github.com/bitpay/bitcore-node

Specifically the reason for doing this, is if we have a working insight-api that is specific to Feathercoin, and it is maintained by our community, with simple build instructions, we can reach out to Trezor and ask to be included in their hardware wallet. Giving the benefit of a hardware wallet to Feathercoin hodlers ;) . If there is anyone willing to help in this endever, post away, and we can chat about options on making it a reality.

Welcome! This is a great place.

Welcome to FTC!

Welcome!

Way awesome. Thanks so much for sharing! Will see how to get that added to my node so I can see such stats.

Latest version in development 0.9.6.2 has the fixes in it to make this function! Thank you @wrapper and @Bushstar for your hard work on it.

Hey Team!

OK, I finally got the docker in a box working and repo uploaded.

https://github.com/natedavis/ftc-in-a-box

I wrote up some simple instructions on how to get started. Basically, what this allows you to do, is spin up a 3 containers. 1 container is running two daemons of feathercoind built from the feathercoin/feathercoin github repo. Specifically the 0.9.6.2 branch. The 2nd container is running a copy of iquidus explorer built from the master branch of it’s repository. I can only get part of it working at the moment. It connects to this regtest cluster automatically, and shows blocks, but I can’t get any blocks to list after I generate some. The 3rd container is a mongodb container to run the db for iquidus.

Feel free to check it out. Excited to have something like this working. Hope is to make the explorer fully work, and allow developers who want to get into feathercoin have an easy way to write APIs and test. Check it out.

Welcome!

I did get an ARM version running. I can dust off the builder that I used to get it running. It actually wan’t too difficult, just took a few hours to compile if I remember.

OK, I am still digging, but I am getting closer. I was able to enable logging on the genesis block and got this returned

root@d3af4a9ce3a1:/data# feathercoin-cli -datadir=1 start
Searching for genesis block…
genesis.nTime = 1296688602
genesis.nNonce = 0
genesis.nVersion = 1
genesis.hashMerkleRoot = 97ddfbbae6be97fd6cdf3e7ca13232a3afff2353e29badfab7f73011edd4ced9
genesis.GetHash = 530827f38f93b43ed12af0b3ad25a288dc02ed74d6d7857862df51fc56c416f9
error: couldn’t connect to server

I then took the GetHash value and replaced the value on Line 197 https://github.com/FeatherCoin/Feathercoin/blob/0.9.6.2/src/chainparams.cpp#L197

Prefacing it with 0x - then 530827f38f93b43ed12af0b3ad25a288dc02ed74d6d7857862df51fc56c416f9

After that, I am able to generate a block with the command

feathercoin-cli -datadir=1 -regtest setgenerate true 1

But then it hangs when I try and generate any others. I kill the process and can get it to generate 1 or two more. Then hangs… Any ideas?

@Bushstar - Do you have a few minutes you could look at the regtest method, and see why I can’t get a genesis block generated in that mode automatically?

Hey Team. I am trying to run Feathercoin in the Regtest Mode so that I can generate blocks instantly for a project I am testing and working on.

feathercoind -regtest -daemon
Feathercoin server starting

To generate the coins, I run the command following this example:
https://bitcoin.org/en/developer-examples#regtest-mode

## Bitcoin Core 0.10.1 and earlier
feathercoin-cli -regtest setgenerate true 101

My CPU immediately pegs to 400%, and after sitting there for more than 15 min, no blocks are generated. Was that code taken out of FTC for some reason? It would appear that it should generate a bunch of new blocks within seconds. But I get nothing. Anyone have any ideas I can try?

Here is a great little video from Jimmy Song about SegWit. It helped me understand it much better, from a higher level. https://youtu.be/M_GmiapVJAQ

If a new logo is needed. We already had a graphic designer that I have paid to work on a Logo for Feathercoin. He has given me a few options, but I have not been around to discuss options. Will start a new thread, and we can talk about options and get community buy off.
