Everyone reading this thread, please also take note that the speed of your internet connection has little to do with how fast the wallet syncs, as someone stated earlier. I live just a little outside of metro Atlanta, and I have a screaming fast connection. It still took my wallet over a week to synchronize…

Also remember, you can still send coins to your wallet address, but you will not be able to see them in your wallet balance, since this transaction took place on the most recent block which will, naturally, be the last one downloaded. I know this seems quite basic, and stupid to say…but I nearly lost my sanity when I dealt with it a while back…

Hi there and welcome. Best follow up or post in the mining section to get response, if no ones got some tips here.

Hi there welcome to the forum. You should be OK, get back when it syncs.

@nidge1169
After pressing reset blockchain, did the wallet start to synchonize again?
Did if tell you that it is fully sync’ed?
If you bought the coins some days ago only, they will not show up until the wallet has synchronized up to the date/time you received the coins.

In case of a tuck sync what you can do:

click on ‘peer monitor’ and check that the wallet has a connection to at least one peer. It can happen that a feathercoin-wallet-2 doesn’t get the network connection. In that case close the wallet wait some time (may be an hour or so) and try again.

If there is a connection shown, go into the pull down menu-> block explorer and check the number, date and time of the last seen block.
Compare that with the block shown in the
block explorer

can you post a screen shot please ?

Hi @Lizhi I’ve added that to exchanges.

Marking as solved.

Thank you @Wellenreiter

This happens to many, if not all crypto wallets time by time. It is a false positive, if you have downloaded and installed from the official sources and checked the signature of the files.

Welcome! :D

@kaalhaan said in One more newbie! (few questions):

Hi, hmm, the FTC wallet wants to be updated, so it’s just a basic update, it won’t have to resync and it won’t change my actual wallet address, right? just to be sure to know if there’s any manipulation i need to do, thx^^

Yep that’s correct. You wont need to resync what you have because Feathercoin stores the BlockChain in AppData - where as the QT software gets installed in Program Files. So you can uninstall and reinstall the new client without affecting your current blockchain download/sync

I uploaded the windows 64 bit setup files not long ago. You can download them from the feathercoin website.

1 - backup your wallet.dat and private keys
2 - uninstall Feathercoin-Qt from Add/Remove Programs
3 - Install the new 0.9.6.2 client
4 - enjoy!

I hope this helps.

@coinsbee if you think it’s going to fail now, you dont understand the purpose of this currency. It would be worth doing some reading or even watching some of the bitcoin documentaries. The reason we are now getting excited is that these are finally started to be adopted more.
It’s hopefully only a matter of time before these are accepted as a new form of currency for trading.
Back in 2014 I was worried. The market was static and all alts plummeted. If we all knew this would turn around we would have dropped 10k in alts and be millionaires.
We can only hope the momentum continues, as everything that has happened recently has created press and more demand to buy - even though people don’t even know what it is. It’s all good news and long may it continue.

Hi and welcome to FTC forum.

NEVER EVER USE AN EXCHANGE WALLET ADDRESS FOR P2Pool, it doesnt work.

@dblmw said in Mac Wallet - Newbie:

Newbie - does anyone have a mac wallet install tutorial pls. Having a hard time sync to network.

Hi and welcome.

I’m not sure why you need a tutorial to install, unless you mean you want to build from source ?

if you want to build from source on MacOS - see this guide
https://forum.feathercoin.com/topic/8769/guide-build-feathercoind-feathercoin-qt-v0-9-3-1-on-macos-sierra

if you just want to install - here’s the direct download link to the MacOS DMG
https://github.com/FeatherCoin/Feathercoin/releases/download/v0.9.6.2-prod/Feathercoin-Qt-0.9.6.2.dmg

All you need to do is double click the DMG. When it loads you drag the Feathercoin-QT App to your applications folder and you’re done.

simple!

I hope this helps.

Hi and welcome to the forum.

Hello all. Mining newbie here, apologizes for the dull questions.

If I’m mining VIA the give-me-coins pool, then I’d have to replace:
-o stratum+tcp://examplescrypt.examplepool.com:exampleport
with:
-o stratum+tcp://ftc-neo.give-me-coins.com:3336
Right?

I would have to put my give-me-coins username in the place of exampleusername?

Thank you all in advance. :)

@sarslemagne did you find an optimal over lock? I found that neoscrypt responds well to a mixed overclock, mainly memory clock though, compared to EThash. Worth experimenting yourself though!

How well does the vega 64 overclock. I imagine you’d be able to push that thing further!
