Life Support (Updated with hash donators)
-
There is a damn good community here, a very helpful, mature and considerate group of people.
Feathercoin has done well (its less than a month old) and its going to be very successful. -

;) I’m actually having more fun trying to add as much as I can to the hashing and seeing how it goes, than mindlessly mining and counting coins…

I think i’m growing some morals… :o

Don’t do that^^ :P
Woke up this morning to see that my rigs had turned… nothing over night lol. Zero, zilch, nadda.Well, Except hot. BUT, I was happy to see we had finally found a new block.

Not an astronomical amount of shares, but we are at 28 MH/S as of this morning of which I am pulling a little under half. It’s awesome to see people sticking it out for those kind of time frames on the hopes they can help things get better. I was honestly surprised more people hadn’t switched.

Made a starter guide for new beginners to start mining feathercoin.
Will add more details/pictures,spellchecking,reference to different pool,explaning the digital currency and so on, but have exam on tuesday so have to prioritize=)at least this guide will give someone new a opportunity to start mining ftc:

Going to turn some power back to FTC. Any stats on best pools? I have been using dig.feathecoin which has been reliable, but pool is only 19Mhash.

[/quote]wemineftc.com it has between 25Khash and 40Khash, 20 confirms
givemeftc it has 40Khash, 10 confirms -

[/quote]Great! Glad you found us.

Do any know what is happening with give-me-ftc? are they updating their site/software?
last two blocks found has been at 0 a long time now without getting confirmed.
-
It looks like those were invalid :(
A point to note. I have approached Coinotron to run a pool. He has been very busy for some time as I have been trying to pin him down on this. I have offered him a bounty to get this running and I hope it accepts my offer.

Dude you have to provide a fix [b]ASAP[/b].
We are losing precious time and miners every hour!

[/quote]A solution has been established, Bushstar wants to run it against a well known developer in the community before implementing. I understand the urgency, however, we need to make sure this hard fork is done correctly. The retarget is a big deal and something we want to make sure is mapped out perfectly. As Bushstar mentioned, we want to make sure we don’t become bubblecoin with huge leaps in difficulty and left in the dust.
With ASICs starting to push GPU big-rigs and apps to auto mine the most profitable coin, I don’t a little more time to make sure we do it right. If you’ve been following LTC, it’s difficulty is about to cause quite a stir.

Is it meaningless to mine feathercoins now before the new fork comes out?
Should i redirect my miners to ltc and wait for the new fork to come out? -

[/quote]How will the hard fork affect mining pools? Will we need to stop mining at our pool for a while until fixes are made, or can we just continue with no negative impact?
Also, how will it impact our older earnings (ex. I don’t keep my FC client open, just open it every few days to get the latest transactions).

[/quote]Huge leaps in difficulty is constipated coin. Bubblecoin is difficulty moving up too slow vs hashrate. You have to fight both tendencies. That’s why it should have a normal mode and an evasive action mode.

The fork will be done in a seamless way. People update their clients and carry on as normal. When we hit a certain block the new difficulty adjust will start working, at this point old clients will not be compatible.
The only thing you need to do is update your clients when the new version is released.
-
has the new client been released?

[/quote]OK…where do we get that new client? I just updated a couple days ago…is there another new one now? And if so, where do I get it?
[/quote]No there is no new client yet, bush will announce when and what needs to be done, when it’s ready to be done. 8)
