The History of Feathercoin

Wellenreiter

I’d suggest one post with the timeline, either in list form or any graphical format, containing just the head lines, which are then linked to the descriptions or posts containing the details.

This is a great idea, I 100% agree. It shows honesty and resilience from the community and that is what is most important. Making the history easy to access for newcomers is an effort in decentralizing the knowledge. It also doesn’t allow critics to own the discussion around the negatives. Also, mentioned above, it will mostly be positive. So even as people investigate the negatives, they will run across many positives they maybe haven’t heard of.

History doesn’t matter to the blockchain itself, it functions great and is well supported and distributed. The openness of the community does matter.

Well said.

Im on the fence about the scams, however. While they did happen I dont see it as a part of the coins history. In some cases it wasnt even FTC that was stolen, it was BTC. Id say if anything, its part of the communities history and the FTC community blends into other coin communities. More of a grey area I think.

@AmDD Good point. Maybe the way to present it then is as a positive. A negative thing happened in the world of alt coins, here is how Feathercoin dealt with the problem. Highlighting title is: “The feathercoin solution to . . . . implemented” or something similar.

Thanks for the incentive, I’m gradually going through it myself. Plus : The news sheets will do most of the work anyway …

just need a thread link, title and a date, if any one wants to add one for consideration …

Hello all.
Long time since I’ve posted here.
Some time ago I started a timeline.
I’ve got a number of events and their dates up to December 2014 already listed on this timeline
here

Feel free to grab the details I entered there

Hi All, just a suggestion but could this team prepare a proper Wikipedia page as well? Had another discussion on that here: http://forum.feathercoin.com/topic/8423/wikipedia/4

The Wikipaedia page has been done before and deleted due to their strict referance policy as an excuse.

The core team is already doing too much, however I have written / am finishing a Feathercoin Wallet guide that can combine as a basis for inline help and such as, a Github Wiki.

The idea of using a software timeline might be a good one!
