Currently the market cap of FTC is 667 BTC And I expect if it go below 100 BTC This coin will be de-list in Cryptsy. And then Game over.

Don’t know will this happen.

Just see the news

Personally, I don’t think we should make decision base on the price / try to stop the price fall. What we do should be good for the coin not good for the price.

We are not Fed or Goldman Sachs.

As I know FTC is a high inflation coin. (at least in the first 4 years) . It does not surprise me if the price fall to 1 cents (I hope it will not happen but it could)

I thinks some of the coins is already mining with negative income, but i don’t see great drop in hash rate… so .I don’t think miner income is our concern.

This will be determined by the market,If prices fall below the electricity costs,POS will improve our ability to survive.I recommend using a PoW in the first 4 years, The first five years of the start, will use PoS.

But this is not the only.If prices continue to fall, PoS is a good choice.

Assume the electricity cost you are talking is $0.04 . You means price below that will make FTC change to POS for a while (or forever) . Or you means change to POS as a temp solution???

what happen in NXT is already make people concern about POS. I can only said POS is more centralize when compare with POW. And honestly I don’t thinks is a good choice.!

By the way change to POS is already a decision??

I think you misunderstood what I meant.

My goal is to find suitable for our development path, not stop there, and not copied.

In my mind is Proof-of-Service , not Proof-of-Stake . I called it S2S (Service to Service).

The following three cases:

1. A man had graphics card , he can mine feathercoin .as we are now.

2. A man have not graphics card ,he have some money,he can buy some feathercoin , and use the FTC mine.

3. A man have not graphics card ,he have not money too,he can open his feathercoin wallet and provide P2P services with his bandwidth.

Of the three cases FTC can be achieved.

We love all others, they too love us all .

Please told me POS is not a long term plan. Even a mixed POW and POS will prevent people spending the coin. You can compare the PPC and FTC transaction on average.

If POS is the long term plan, I would have to re-valuate the potential of FTC .

What is the money used for?

The recent price fall seems brother a lot of people.

But I am prepare to have 100% lost in Crypto-currency . Are U?

We cannot control the price, let market determine it. If it go to significantly (or unreasonably) low. Someone will buy . Don’t worry ^-^

Hi there I have 2 xfx 290x units and I can only get 750 tops using the settings in this thread. Maybe it is the cgminer version we are using?

I was expecting 1000 or so

I used 3.4.1 before and test 3.6.2 and 3.7.2 all get similar result . what is your version?

[quote name=“sl1982” post=“42705” timestamp=“1386709089”]
This gives me 875khash/sec (XFX 290 flashed to asus 290x bios)

[/quote]

Thanks for the help but still get similar result. Maybe is the brand problem. Asus card sucks!

Thanks for the reply , I have tried but it is getting worse only 6xx . Sometimes it look like frozen.

I want to buy 7790 before but out of stock!.. :-[

Just hope they will update the driver and got better result soon!

Any more suggestion?

Can anyone help???

the 8000 series is an OEM only series and will be seen in a few laptops and thats it. The 9000 series got a new name and its the R7 and R9 series of cards. All are rebranded version s of the 7000s except the R9 290/290x with new firmware/bios.
