It seems we have some competition. Some apparently LIKE the old scrypt variety. I dont see the point in it, the more you push ASIC mining, the less actual users will mine it. The more ASICs, the less GPU people you have and the more centralized the coin becomes. Anyways, OLD SCHOOL Feathercoin people and non-converted pools should sync up to this. https://feathercoinclassic.wordpress.com/. Found the link trying to get my BTCS wallet back in sync.

SWEEET. NICE Work. Especially the up/down kharma thing.

It must be all about your backend, then. Really whats with it? Im on Dreamhost for $10/month.Unlimited bandwidth and server space.Using shared but dedicated servers available for even more.Im over 13GB used with all of my ISOs and wikis right now.DNS can be ported but it takes a few hours to propigate.If you switched to DH be aware the site might go down during the switch.Any real outages are handled with 24 hours of reporting them. Most of the time its because of poor SPAM filtering or setup.

WP can handle all of what you mentioned. Ive already mentioned this in another post. I hope the admins are paying atention.If Im not mistaken, WP has forum, there is bbpress, and many other free options for forums. Users may have to re-register. I dunno how the database backend handles things. I tap diectly into mysql and thats about it.Even friendica(thought it scales poorly, is not designed for masses) is setup without a hitch.

SPAM and the website and forum are all handled by WP(or they should be). I have excellent spam (and speed) controls in place myself on another WP site that I personally run.You can stop bots and DDOS as well all in a single move.I can get you a plugin list if you like. I havent update the site in some time.You should be able to add a forum just off of the main WP site, just like running a blog section.Shouldnt need an elaborate setup. I see lots of huff and puff but no action. Is the test site linked somewhere?

I too would like to see some code. CLEAN code, not someone else’s leftovers, from ANY coin. We are NEOScrypt and should reflect that. All I see are Scrypt and SHA256 leftovers from the Bitcoin project.

Dear users,
I’m glad we’re still on the right road.Today ,I announce “Feathercoin Core Wallet Welcome”.You can download it for Windows http://www.ftc-c.com/pack3/feathercoin-qt.rar

Why do we need core wallet ?
Feathercoin core wallet base on Bitcoin framework, is not Litecoin framework.finally out of shadow from LTC! For users, it provides some new features.

What is the difference between feathercoin core and feathercoin ?
Yes,There’s a big difference between them.
1) The new menu and page. I tune overview page, add report page . About menu tuning , I add “Advanced” menu. Users can quickly find the page needs to use.
**2) Multi-sign .**This is an important function.You can have tow or more signatures.It would increase the security of the transaction.
**3) Comments in blockchain.**This is a proof of existence.insert comments you would need.
**4) Private Blockchain Addresses (Dark Blockchain).**Scan Pubkey replace Public key,Protect your address.
5) New database. I upgrade db-4.8.30.NC to db-5.1.29.NC. BerkeleyDB.5.1.29 is performance improvements and bug fixes.
7) Plugins. Wallet can team working with Bitmessage.Impliment shapeshift,support feathercoin shift other coin.
8 )Paper wallets. Feathercoin can print paper wallets for you,Added dropdown to print multiple paper wallets over multiple pages.

**9) Multi-signature UI. **I can use multi-sign without RPC command.
10) Other. I upgrade QT 4.8.5 to QT 5.3.1,It provide more interface.

Some nice features there but I bet your still using the Bitcoin and are in need of a ‘Bitcoin’->‘Feathercoin’ merge.Noticed the code from .8 needs it. Maybe we can implement this (NEW CODE) as a MASTER branch change? Shapeshift is ‘shifty’ on how much you can convert at one time, did you fix this? Nice work. Not quite done with my improvements to the .8 code yet. How did you edit the logo to match the background? I cant seem to ‘cut out’ the coin from its white background so it stands out like sore thumb. Is there a way to point the android qt to the ‘boost’ libraries? This is preventing a test build of what I have. Windows building seems a pain in the ass but I will attempt it. You cant cross build with mxe or gcc utils natively because all of the networking libraries arent being called correctly or are using redundant code.Will attempt MSYS on windows.

I tried to get the windows version running under wine since Im having issues building from source on Fedora with openssl. Problem is no connections occur under wine. Is there a solution to this? The app just sits there saying no sources available, like it cant connect to the internet. I know this not to be the case or Warcraft wouldnt run at all. Warcraft runs fine under wine.

YEAH YEAH, .8 is dated. I KNOW.

But Im getting build isssues with .8 from github. We are missing some files it appears? I didnt have this issue before when building.

Oddly this is a qmake issue with the qrc file.This doesnt happen on debian.

Theres more than meets the eye here. We are missing CORE files. Is someone deleting them?
output of make on stretch. Jessie doesnt cut cheese for me.I had to switch back because of qmake/make issues in fedora.

src/qt/sendcoinsdialog.cpp:

I have no guarantee that the sources in other projects is the same that we use. This file should be there but isnt.Its not there in .9 either. I have both versions in the “code” folder. We shouldnt rely on other projects to supply files that we should have.

this topic is really closed. I got it working by adding in p2pool nodes. Initial sync takes a minute to kick in. The rest is a Fedora issue, both with qmake and make, and openssl. Not GOOD. All my dev work is halted because of this “FEDORA” issue. Hopefully CentOS/RHEL wont have these issues, because if they do IM up shit creek. I cant run Debian; my backup sets get corrupted under Jessie. Versions below Jessie have zero BDROM support.(but yet somehow I managed to burn them onto a BDROM at 100% success rate) UBUNTU is not an option, too much is broken. Same with Mint. Running out of good distros that work.Dont really want to go the Mandrake route. Gentoo, EESH, do I really want to go THERE? BSD? NOPE. Tried that. ZERO burning support period. ERROR on track 0 write.

If you looked hard enough, youd realize that Im building under Linux. Thats KDE showing. Debain 8 in a box to be more exact. No, its not so easy anymore. This is the output of qmake. I cant “qmake && make” if qmake complains.Everything needed is already installed. Issue is that the lanquage files referenced in the QRC project file are indeed missing.Im using fresh .8 from github.Otherwise the file would be called more properly feathercoin.qrc, not BITcoin.qrc.

I wasnt getting this error before when building so IMAO where to begin to takle the problem.

unfortunately its just not that easy. We need a constant dev environment it seems and we dont have it. Linux should be the default build environment. 64 if you ask me because then we can build 32/64 on the fly. (whatsa matter dont have a 64-bit CPU?) We are having to build from sources here, the deb file just doesnt work(compiled for debian wheezy?) as the depends are TOO OLD. Im on Jessie because it has better support, though some things are still broken from Squeeze.Grabbing the KDE live iso is a start. Too many DE problems. “RedHat” uses rpm not debs by default, sorry I cant help. The sources will build but I dont think it has THAT many requirements. At least not for me.And Im syncing with the client just fine.Im using modified QT ui so I cant be of help in uploading ATM until I get the full dev environment set up. I only have Linux64/32 and android at the moment and android is requiring some external libs to run the binary. Not what we want. This is a real pain to get QT Creator setup correctly.

seem someone needs a read-up of hardening. WE CAN DO MORE. PIE and RELRO are HIGHLY recommended these days.

https://wiki.debian.org/Hardening#dpkg-buildflags
hardening-check <filename> or use of the following script will tell you whats what.

The scrypt is located here. http://www.trapkit.de/tools/checksec.html

maybe still some cleanup on isle five needed. Nice work. Will pull for Debian/Fedora when I get the chance.

yeah but we still a cleanup on isle 5. I imagine everything still points to ‘Bitcoin’ instead of ‘Feathercoin’. The UI updates are nice but as noticed, only the windows exe made it to .9.5, not the master branch. The master branch is still missing the UI changes. There is a lot of cleanup to do with bitcoin branding that was left behind with feathercoin master branch.What work Ive done, Ive lost with recent backup failures. I am in need of GitHub WRITE access. Furthermore we have a FREEDOM issue here that has recently been brought to my attention.

Although Debian and UBUNTU both use SSL, namely OPENSSL, it has one fatal flaw: current implementation is NON-FREE as distributed.

Fedora team have made changes to FREE it, however, these changes remove the code we need to function.(Elliptic curves)

Several Bitcoin-esque projects are affected, as they ALL use openSSL.

Noted HERE: http://forums.fedoraforum.org/showthread.php?p=1581297 and HERE: http://mikeminneman.com/2013/12/getting-dogecoind-to-run-on-centos/

The CentOS pactch doesnt seem to make any changes. However, it is noted that there is further work to be done on HARDENING as noted in this patch:

https://github.com/weex/bitcoind-centos/blob/master/makefile.new. Current version with Fedora is 1.0.1k (pull from 22, 21 sources are broken).

Ive noticed severe DATA LOSS occuring on Debian systems with Jessie. UBUNTU introduces bugs that shouldnt be. I cant use either as a result.Looks like Im rebuilding OPENSSL…EDIT: NO GO. EPIC FAIL. I dunno how to proceed now. Bitcoin team uses a static version of openssl included with thier app, so does litecoin. Perhaps we should follow suit.

ALSO:

Packages for Feathercoin for Fedora(and Im sure others) are missing the qt wallet client.This is a HUGE oversight. We need to include both the daemon AND the client.Please repack.

I like the idea but how do we automate it to do the private key hashing auto magically? Dollar bill readers anyone? Credit cards? I think we need to commercialize on this fact that cryptocurrencies arent going away anytime soon.Allowing purchase in Feathercoins at same location helps. And then theres the funding of the ATM. Does it come from personal wallets or is there some magic wallet holding all the FTC? I can see a disadvantage in personal wallets.
