Two interesting news articles about Feathercoin

Just found a couple of news articles about Feathercoin that are interesting.
Apparently you can now pay for your parking at Denver airport with Feathercoin from Cryptocoins News
https://www.cryptocoinsnews.com/105258-2/and Gizmo times lists Feathercoin as one of the best alternatives to Bitcoin
https://www.gizmotimes.com/lists/the-best-bitcoin-alternatives-list/21375Good to see Feathercoin popping its head back up.

Thanks for those interesting links. I note they (Gizmo) mention (eHRC) protection against hash variation as a distinguishing factor, Wellenrieter and I did a lot of work on that, so quite amusing. :)
Technically our most difficult achievement was the move over to Neoscrypt and the changes to mining, wallet and pool software that fork involved. Also the number of people involved, in addition to Ghostlanders amazing initial work …

May be @ChekaZ should place a Tweet about the article(s)

Definitely worth a tweet if you haven’t already, that was one of the reasons I posted them here

I found an article too: http://cryptolix.com/feathercoin-ftc-what-you-need-to-know/

Thats super cool. The write up on cryptolix is great!

That is a very positive write up. Some of those developments mentioned (were experimental and ) are being reviewed for future viability.
It is important that FTC can continue to support functionality, currently we are behind on keeping up with head for “normal” required basic functionality of a blockchain coin. i.e. I’d prefer the publicity when we are at v14 wallet and 6 of the mobile wallet and our auto build system is fully up. Or at least a chance to weed / review out unsupportable features.
As an open and open source project, we can only move as fast as members can contribute. As such the article under estimated the importance of the FTC forum and members in getting FTC to where it is.
There is a good background knowledge of the system and development process within FTC admins / contributers to push forward quite quickly with some more (programming in particular) support.
