Hello to all. Very excited about getting started with Feathercoin. New to all this cryptocurrency stuff so it will be an interesting experience.

Brand new the forum and to cryptocurrencies in general. Interested in learning more about how to become involved. I’m completely undecided at this point whether cryptocurrency is the future or a fad/scam/techno-toy.
I chose the feathercoin wallet over bitcoin/litecoin because I assumed that those were already too big to be able to really dig into and enjoy. If feathercoin is already too big too, then let me know where I should direct my attention. I’d like to be able to learn about mining by using just my normal everyday laptop from home. I can probably get a Frankenstein tower workstation put together from discarded parts, but I honestly don’t want to put any money into this until I understand it and have seen things work.
Overall, my goal is not to make big money here. My goal is to understand, see a small scale version of how everything actually works and if it seems to be something worth my time then I’d like to learn enough to really put together plans on how to get more involved.
Who knows, maybe someday I’ll accept rent payments with feathercoins. Or maybe I’ll be able to sell products for feathercoins. Then maybe, if the value of these things can stay fairly constant, then maybe I can save value in them instead of letting inflation always kick me.
But I’ll never know any of this stuff until I get involved and try it. So that’s why I’ve got my nice new feathercoin wallet and joined this forum. Excited to get going.
