Hello everyone
-
I’ve been reading a lot about virtual currencies lately, and decided to get in on the action. There’s so many now, I couldn’t decide which one to try until I started reading these forums. Everyone here seems friendly and helpful, and it’s nice to see a good community being formed.
From what I’ve read, a lot of folks are not mining FTC at the moment because of difficulty re-targeting (which honestly, I don’t quite understand yet. I’m still learning.), but I expect to be here for the long haul if the community stays as warm and helpful as I’ve seen so far.
I look forward to conversing with you all in the future.

Welcome to the forums Antedeus! Yes, I agree that the FTC community is a lot more mature and organized than many of the other alt-cryptos coming out. Even those who support Litecoin are often out of line and disrespectful. Hopefully Feathercoin comes to be seen as a more proper crypto than the others.
Anyways, glad that the difficulty doesn’t deter you from joining us! Unfortunately since it’s new, its base hashrate is still low compared to the coin-jumpers who hop from one coin to the other depending on its profitability.

Thanks aysyr.
This is the only currency I will be directing my GPUs/CPUs towards for the foreseeable future. I’m glad I got in early enough to watch it grow, and will spread the word to friends and family. I’d love to see FeatherCoin become a success.
I’ve always built my PCs with either development or gaming in mind, but I do see myself building a rig strictly for mining pretty soon. I believe I’ve found my next hobby/addiction.

[/quote]Great to have you here. We will make it through this last stretch of re-targeting as a community :)

I can’t see it being a ‘last’ stretch unfortunately, but if we all ‘pool’ together and keep at it we’ll establish and stabilize the currency over time.(Bad pun intended :P)That aside, welcome to the Feathercoin.com forums Antedeus. ^^
