Just found a couple of news articles about Feathercoin that are interesting.
Apparently you can now pay for your parking at Denver airport with Feathercoin from Cryptocoins News
https://www.cryptocoinsnews.com/105258-2/
and Gizmo times lists Feathercoin as one of the best alternatives to Bitcoin

Good to see Feathercoin popping its head back up.
Definitely worth a tweet if you haven’t already, that was one of the reasons I posted them here
I just thought I would drop buy and wish the Feathercoin Team a Merry Christmas and a Happy new year.
I do still regularly keep an eye on what FTC is doing and I’m still running a node for it.
Keep up the good work.

Yes I haven’t posted in a while, but I’ve still been lurking and keeping an eye on what is going on.
Hi Everyone!
Just thought I should drop by to let you all know I’m still lurking here and do check the forum every few days.
I’m still running my node for FTC and I’m taking this lull in interest in FTC to mine myself some more with the low difficulty FTC.

110 days works for me, the sooner the supply halves the better.
I wonder if this revelation has caused the buying rush today…
Thanks, I will document the Seiko 5 I’m about to restore after Christmas when the new glass for it arrives, but that one may not go up for sale, but onto my wrist instead.
Yes FTC has paid for a number of my tools, so it only seems fair to give something back.
I’ve not been around for a bit, but Feathercoin has been good to me this year and for the last 2 years I have been taking night classes doing something I have wanted to do for years and that is learning to be a watch maker. (My grandfather, great grandfather and I believe my great great grandfather were all watchmakers).
(Yes I get the irony of being involve in Crypto whilst learning a dying and possibly obsolete trade)
Just wondering if there would be any interest in people here in buying restored and serviced vintage and classic wrist watches with Feathercoin. I’m not talking Omega’s and Rolexes I’m talking Seikos, Bulovas and any one of the many Swiss brands from the 1940s to the 1990s.
What I would sell the watches for is my cost to buy and restore plus a small overhead, well less than what you would pay to have the watch serviced on a high street.
My motivation is more practice for me and something back to others that support Feathercoin and to promote the use of FTC for commerce.
If there is an interest I will start a blog showing the restoration of the watches so people can see what I would sell and go from there.
Thanks Ghost I used your source to compile 0.8.7.3 on my raspberry pi, so I’ve got a node up again, although its currently catching up and probably will be for another day.
