Lack of new blocks being found. With the price dropping too it is going to get very messy. We need some quick fix; though I have no idea what that might be.
[/quote]A faster difficulty adjust would help Feathercoin regain appeal to miners when it starts moving the difficulty down.
[/quote]Yeah, but that would be messy, and something permanent so can’t just be done like that. Was wondering if a more innovative solution exists for the long term; and a quick fix for the short term. The upcoming Litecoin difficulty may help if FTC at least holds the price for now.

I am already giving my 1.1 Mh/s to FTC
-
Ah heck - 9MH/s…
Anyone fancy drumming up some business on the other boards?

serraz is the awesomest pool operator ever.
give me ltc pool uses 10 confirms not 120. that’s why give me ltc is gets a ton of respect.you don’t need faster difficulty retargets. you only need pool operators who know what they are doing.
i think it’s time for me to go to serraz’s pool. expect the difficulty issue to disappear. by far the best.
give-me-ftc will solve all our issues.

Good spot zerodrama.
The network hash rate has gone up by 20 MH over the last hour which is a 5.4% increase in hashing power. It looks like a hash power rally by the community can make a difference. We are now down from 21 days to 20 days to go :)
I’ve resurrected my son’s computer this week with a replacement motherboard which made him happy, I have now set it mining again which has made him mad, mining is what blew up his computer in the first place. I now have a total of 1.5MH running. I’ve been meaning to order a couple of new cards for a while now and will get on it.
I’ll link this thread into the Feathercoin announcement thread over at BitcoinTalk.

Ok, So after some thinking I’ve decided to put my money where my mouth is. I’m prepared (i think i may be going soft) to swing my miners around for a few days and see how we go.I need some help understanding something though.
What is needed to help sort out the confirmations? If i mine for a pool does that help or should i set up a p2pool (i used to run one for litecoin - shouldn’t be too hard to adapt) I have spare servers which are SSD based with PLENTY of RAM and static IPs etc. Also does leaving a wallet open with the port forwarded actually help? Solomining?
I know i’m only one guy but every little helps right? I’ll lead the charge!!! 8)
[b]Devs[/b] - What are you planning? A little transparency may help the confidence levels too?
[/quote]Your gesture is appreciated and I thank you for the support.
We don’t ask you to mine a whole month and take a loss, just a day or 2 to get the confirmations up and running again1000 times thanks!!!

I’m still saving up for the 7950, no point joining with my 20kh/s -.-’

[/quote]My only PC useful for scrypt mining is my render PC and he also does not make more than 20kh/s. But whenever i’m not rendering i point him to a FTC pool. Of course your and mine 20k each make no difference, but a 100 of us do.

[/quote]Well, I only have 1 PC which I’m using right now and mining lags the PC a bit :/

Errr I think the price could do with some life support! Cheap coins for everyone!!! :D :D :D :D :D
-
EPIC Bounce though - buy order just jumped 30BTC!
I’m all in now - 15MHs. Hope it’s worth it! :D
-
DUDE i’M DYING !!! I have to wait few days for my card reader to make bank transfers :'( I cant believe it >.< mother f**ker at 0.001 http://gyazo.com/8df4a14b1ddc2d70ed17bd03ba6835fc
Anybody want to give me 20 pounds / $31 or equvilint of FTC and I pay them back in few days ?? ^^
-

[/quote]I guarantee serraz’s miners won’t be expecting to be treated like gods.
The nerve of some people. If anyone is fundamental it’s the pool operators.
-
455 BTC buy support :).
It probably doesn’t matter but I would like to think all my rantings at the chatbox helped. With the upcoming Litecoin difficulty increase we should be in a decent position.
-
6mhash/s added :D
Also bough a couple of them ftc again in case of resurrection and value increase=)

[quote name=“Nutnut” post=“2260” timestamp=“1368207649”]
6MHs pointed to give-me-ftc…Any other lurking miners fancy joining the charge??
[/quote]That’s really nice of you! Thank you for keeping the network alive.
But please don’t throw in too much hashing power, I don’t want difficulty to be too high once I throw in all my miners.
I can wait 14 or even 20 days. That’s OK for me. And then it’s all in again. Make coins like crazy ;D
We need more altruists like you.
-
Wait you believe in altruism now?
See I don’t. I do FTC because I have goals.
-
Good work Svennand.
Radacoin - it’ll take more than our 21MHs to kill the difficulty. i think we need to reach about 1GHs?
