Topic: Feathercoin [FTC] (Read 460696 times)
I need to import a FTC (feathercoin) private key originally from electrum-ftc desktop wallet.
Use https://atomicdex.io/en/downloads/ and import your privkey there... check "allow custom seed" before entering your FTC privkey.
Hello, please help, if possible.
I need to import a FTC (feathercoin) private key originally from electrum-ftc desktop wallet. That one will not connect to the network no matter what I do. Feathcoin-QT (the full node wallet) is connected to the network, but there is no apparent way to import a private key (the "export/backup" option is easy to find, but not import), and no matching info on Google.
Earlier, I tried Edge Android wallet (error message every time when importing), and the few others supporting FTC, none worked. This has to be possible, how? Thank you.

what stock exchange is it traded on
And if we’re still nostalgic, then, in the fall of 2013, mining pools began to massively switch to the stratum protocol, which reduced the number of rejected and increased profitability.
Feathercoin was then a real mining favorite

I remember back in 2013 I mined Feathercoin.
At one time it was more profitable to mine than Litecoin.
Now I came across this topic, I remembered, eh, nostalgia.
So much time has passed, and the coin is still alive.
i also reminisce and remember it, get Feathercoin from faucet and also mine it, because i was attracted from their logo design as well as their project, so i kept it for some time then sold it when the price was good at that time on btc-e exchange, became an early miner where hashrate not high yet even mining FTC when it used my computer was quite profitable, glad to see this old altcoin project still exists today At one time it was more profitable to mine than Litecoin.
Now I came across this topic, I remembered, eh, nostalgia.

Insane that doge coin is higher than FTC. Wouldn't have guessed this seven eight years ago. Elon Musk needs to learn that neoscrypt is better than scrypt. Maybe more exchanges would help.
was one of the first coins i bought back in like 2013 or 2014, sad that it seems to have died
It's not dead. However, it isn't as active as it was in the early days indeed. Probably the growth of other altcoins have made many users switch to other altcoins. I still HODL some of my old FTC for sure.
(If FOMO will happen in the cryptocurrency world, I think some of the "old altcoins" might become much more popular again). This is just my opinion though, not any advice.
This coin is most certainly NOT Dead :-)

Coincontol is to split coins into batches to get faster rewards from staking. Comments embedded into the transactions is a no feature. Colored coins have existed for years and being able to launch / create ur assets is anything but breakthrough in the plane of altcoin development. You can think of ETH as a coin factory too. That said there is less than nothing to boast about in that regard.

I am releasing FeatherCoin now. I have been working on this for a while and now want to give it go in the big bad world.
This coin is a fork of Litecoin diving back to its 0.6.3 build. I am a supporter of Litecoin and will be following Coblee’s releases. The Litecoin team is working on a newer release and this project will move with them.
The joys of a Litecoin fork, are that we get to use Scrypt and follow a release designed for specifically for it. There are a lot of Bitcoin forks but with the advent of ASIC miners we are starting to see how much havoc they can cause. To give us GPU miners shelter we need Scrypt based coins, as, in my opinion, Litecoin is currently the only valid one. Litecoin being as mature as it is makes it hard to join in the fun so let’s start with a new coin that follows Litecoin’s tradition.
FeatherCoin has a block reward of 200 and will have a total of 336 million coins. This makes it four times that of LiteCoin, this is the same position that LiteCoin was set against BitCoin. There is no private preming of this coin.
This coin is in beta like all this cryptocoins.
GUI Version for Windows - http://www.feathercoin.com/FeatherCoin.zip

There is a website to come and I will get this on to GitHub. I will update this post with some more technical details tomorrow. It has been a long day so I'll leave you to test this over night. markm, if nothing else I hope that you find this coin useful one day. Smoovious, just start mining.

Maybe in 2021 you can be honest and acknowledge TENEBRIX $TBX is the first scrypt coin and not once has it died. It mines fine. I mine and produce blocks and send to other peers to test transactons. The first deserves some praise here, who knows what could happen to your chain without my support of the original Scrypt. AND its own clone of Litecoin, Junkcoin JKC which sounds funny but is a big part of another functioning OG 0.6.3 v scrypt Litecoin exact clone, maybe even pseudo private gone public born before it. CoinyeCoin, it has JKC addr in it and so does the Omni tab for sending Omni Layer transactions on the software that made me invest in FTC, OmniFeather. Now I'm sure after FeatherUS EXCUSE me, that's not correct - it's called "Property 31" reveals its circular end game, we will all scale into the future.
We intend on adding Feathercoin to FreeBitcoins.com exchange, faucet, & swap tool at some point this summer.
I will keep y'all updated!
Happy to support a great project.

Since NFTs are now in the latest omnifeather release (active on block 3,624,000 around the 12th of april), an update of the Feathercoin details has been published here https://forum.feathercoin.com/topic/9390/what-feathercoin-offers-with-links-and-explanations
See a recap here below:
Feathercoin Under the Hood (how it operates)
NeoScrypt Algorithm - This is the algorithm used in solving a block (aka mining) and is then instrumental in moving from one set of currency transactions in the block chain to the next. A white paper is available at http://phoenixcoin.org/archive/neoscrypt_v1.pdf - and the implementation is at https://github.com/ghostlander/NeoScrypt
Current Generation ASIC resistance - The NeoScrypt algorithm is designed to use enough resources, in this case memory, such that current ASICs cannot mine Feathercoin. ASICs are a dedicated circuit board to just mine coins. Creating a dedicated circuit board to mine feathercoin would take considerable investment. For a little more detail at http://forum.feathercoin.com/topic/2156/why-ftc-is-asic-resistent-for-beginners-requesting-feedback
Advanced Checkpointing - This is a method used to prevent network attacks on the currency. Details are provided at http://forum.feathercoin.com/topic/2709/advanced-checkpointing-released there is also more information in the feathercoin wallet guide https://wrapperband.github.io/FeathercoinWalletGuide/#advanced-checkpointing-acp
336,000,000 Total Coins - Eventually there will be 336 million coins in circulation. This will be pretty close to done around the year 2121 (see schedule below)
1 minute target block time - This is the average amount of time it takes for a block to be mined and transactions to appear in your wallet. The software constantly adjusts the mining difficulty to keep this time consistent as mining intensity varies. Look here for a deeper explanation of block time https://steemit.com/bitcoin/@ghayas/what-does-block-time-mean-in-cryptocurrency
enhanced Hash Rate Compensation - This is a method of adjusting the difficulty of the calculation the miners must do to find a block. Difficulty is adjusted based on the speed the blocks are being found on the network and should increase as the hash power of the miners increases. eHRC uses the time it took the last 15, 120 and 480 blocks to be solved and calculates (re-targets) the difficulty after every block using that data. Difficulty in general is explained at https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Difficulty a full write up on the details of eHRC can be found in the feathercoin wallet guide at https://wrapperband.github.io/FeathercoinWalletGuide/#enhanced-hash-rate-compensation-ehrc
40 coins per block (currently) - Each feathercoin block that is mined pays the miner 40 feathercoins. Every 4 years the amount paid is cut in half. (see schedule below) details at http://forum.feathercoin.com/topic/6847/block-reward-adjustment
Block halving every 2,100,000 blocks - As more and more of the feathercoin currency gets in circulation the payout of the solving a block (ie mining) is decreased. 21 million blocks is a few days short of 4 years. The intent is that miners get paid for the work in both transaction fees and from the network putting currency in circulation. As time progresses and the distribution of the source currency dries up the transaction fees become the main source of income for miners. Details on the concept can be found here https://academy.binance.com/en/glossary/halving
OmniLayer functionality - OmniFeather has been released https://github.com/OmniLayer/omnicore/releases which adds OmniLayer functionality to the Feathercoin blockchain. This allows for the creation of additional assets on the Feathercoin blockchain other than the native feathercoin. Assets can be either managed or have a fixed supply, can be introduced via crowdsale and exchanged via a decentralised exchange built into the OmniFeather protocol.
Default Feathercoin network port is 9336 - The whole Feathecoin cryptocurrency network for sending coins around and exchanging blocks runs on this port. You can retrieve the peer to peer information on various sites like this one https://www.coinexchange.io/network/peers/FTC
Default RPC mining port is 9337 - This is the port that is used by mining software to communicate via Remote procedure call (rpc) to a server when doing mining. Checkout the solo mining thread for an example of its use http://forum.feathercoin.com/topic/9058/guide-solo-mining-for-feathercoin-and-neoscrypt
What features are available
Comments - Comments can be added to transactions. The technical details for reading them are available here http://forum.feathercoin.com/topic/8640/faq-how-to-read-comments-from-the-feathercoin-blockchain further information about comments can be found here in the feathercoin wallet guide https://wrapperband.github.io/FeathercoinWalletGuide/#comments-in-the-feathercoin-blockchain
Coin control - The coin control feature allows you to control how you spend the coins in your wallet when sending a transaction. You can choose what addresses will be the ones sending the coins and which of the coins you have received will be used. The wallet interface details for this can be found here https://wrapperband.github.io/FeathercoinWalletGuide/#options-menu---wallet-tab
Setting up a wallet
download the software - To use feathercoin you just need software to handle receiving coins to a generated address (created by the wallet) . The same software allows you then send the coins to another address. Links are on the main page of the site at https://www.feathercoin.com/ or from github at https://github.com/FeatherCoin/Feathercoin/releases/
Setting up a server to do e-commerce and feathercoin block chain actions
Feathercoin rest API - the feathercoin.com site has rest APIs available for full documentation see https://www.feathercoin.com/feathercoin-api/
Payment Gateway Software from gourl.io - Their site has a number of live samples and code examples on how to do commerce with their payment gateway software. Many currencies including feathercoin are supported. They have code in php and .net available (they even have a nuget package). Their site is at https://gourl.io/ and a 3rd party forum discussing them can be found at https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/ann-bitcoin-start-your-own-woocommerce-bitcoinaltcoins-eshop-in-10-minutes-1043437
Implementing your own - If you are going to start from scratch the best place to get example code for technical reference is from the feathercoin wallet software. The code is in C++ https://github.com/FeatherCoin/Feathercoin . You can ask for further assistance in the technical development forum area https://forum.feathercoin.com/category/71/technical-development
OmniFeather
What is the Omni Layer - The Omni Layer is a communications protocol that uses the Feathercoin block chain to enable Smart Properties (tokens) and a Decentralized Exchange. A common analogy that is used to describe the relation of the Omni Layer to Feathercoin is that of HTTP to TCP/IP: HTTP, like the Omni Layer, is the application layer to the more fundamental transport and internet layer of TCP/IP, like Feathercoin.
What is OmniFeather - OmniFeather is a fast, portable Omni Layer implementation that is based off the Feathercoin codebase. This implementation requires no external dependencies extraneous to Feathercoin, and is native to the Feathercoin network just like other Feathercoin nodes. It currently supports a wallet mode and is seamlessly available on three platforms: Windows, Linux and MacOS. Omni Layer extensions are exposed via the JSON-RPC interface. Development has been consolidated on the OmniFeather product, and it is the reference client for the Omni Layer.
Compatibility with Feathercoin - OmniFeather is based on Feathercoin 0.18.4 and can be used as replacement for Feathercoin. Switching between Omni Core and Feathercoin may be supported. However, it is not advised to upgrade or downgrade to versions other than Feathercoin 0.18.4. When switching to OmniFeather , it may be necessary to reprocess Omni Layer transactions.
NFTs in OmniFeather - NFTs are non-fungible tokens. They act as a non-duplicable digital certificate of ownership for any assigned digital asset. Once the code is written, it is then minted, or permanently published, into a token on a blockchain. Once the NFT is purchased, the owner has the digital rights to resell, distribute or license the digital asset as they please. see https://digiday.com/media/wtf-is-an-nft/ for more info
NFT - Availability - Non-Fungible Tokens are not active on mainnet until block 3,624,000, this is roughly four weeks ahead of launch and should be sometime around 12 April. This feature is already live on testnet and can be tested there in preparation for mainnet launch.
Omnifeather on github - The project is located at https://github.com/OmniLayer/omnifeather
Download the software - The releases are available for download at https://github.com/OmniLayer/omnifeather/releases

Halving dates are a best guess and will need to be recalculated from time to time as the block times vary slightly. They are targeted at 1 minute per block but the average tends to run a few seconds more over time. It is possible for this to go lower than 1 minute as well as chance plays a factor.
These dates were calculate on feb 9th 2021 using 64.9 seconds per block which was a the block time average from that date back to the previous halving date. Ideally you would just look at block counts. the July 2017 block was 1793040 and every 2100000 after that it will be cut in half.
Legacy features
These are only available in Feathercoin-qt version 0.9.6.2.
Paper Wallet - A paper wallet is a document that contains copies of the public and private keys that make up a wallet. Often it will have QR codes, so that you can quickly scan them and add the keys into a software wallet to make a transaction. The feathercoin wallet provides an interface for you to get hold of the necessary keys to create one details are here https://wrapperband.github.io/FeathercoinWalletGuide/#paper-wallet-menu as well as here http://forum.feathercoin.com/topic/8650/faq-how-can-i-generate-a-feathercoin-paper-wallet-online an online tool for creating the actual paper wallet can be found here https://walletgenerator.net/?currency=Feathercoin
Stealth Addresses - Stealth Addresses are used to keep wallet to wallet transfers hidden from others despite being in a publicly available block chain. Details are available here http://forum.feathercoin.com/topic/8609/faq-feathercoin-wallet-advanced-feature-stealth-addresses the feature can be found here in the feathercoin wallet guide https://wrapperband.github.io/FeathercoinWalletGuide/#stealth-addresses
Multi Signature Address - A multi-sig address is a special kind of public key address. it has more than one private key. This means that you can create an address which no individual person can spend money from, but which instead requires every signer to agree before a payment can be made. details on using it can be found here http://forum.feathercoin.com/topic/7870/guide-how-to-use-feathercoins-multi-signature-address-page the feature can be found here in the feathercoin wallet guide https://wrapperband.github.io/FeathercoinWalletGuide/#multisig-button

A common analogy that is used to describe the relation of the Omni Layer to Feathercoin is that of HTTP to TCP/IP: HTTP, like the Omni Layer, is the application layer to the more fundamental transport and internet layer of TCP/IP, like Feathercoin.
What is OmniFeather - OmniFeather is a fast, portable Omni Layer implementation that is based off the Feathercoin codebase. This implementation requires no external dependencies extraneous to Feathercoin, and is native to the Feathercoin network just like other Feathercoin nodes. It currently supports a wallet mode and is seamlessly available on three platforms: Windows, Linux and MacOS. Omni Layer extensions are exposed via the JSON-RPC interface. Development has been consolidated on the OmniFeather product, and it is the reference client for the Omni Layer.
Compatibility with Feathercoin - OmniFeather is based on Feathercoin 0.18.4 and can be used as replacement for Feathercoin. Switching between Omni Core and Feathercoin may be supported. However, it is not advised to upgrade or downgrade to versions other than Feathercoin 0.18.4. When switching to OmniFeather , it may be necessary to reprocess Omni Layer transactions.
NFTs in OmniFeather - NFTs are non-fungible tokens. They act as a non-duplicable digital certificate of ownership for any assigned digital asset. Once the code is written, it is then minted, or permanently published, into a token on a blockchain. Once the NFT is purchased, the owner has the digital rights to resell, distribute or license the digital asset as they please. see https://digiday.com/media/wtf-is-an-nft/ for more info
NFT - Availability - Non-Fungible Tokens are not active on mainnet until block 3,624,000, this is roughly four weeks ahead of launch and should be sometime around 12 April. This feature is already live on testnet and can be tested there in preparation for mainnet launch.

Halving dates are a best guess and will need to be recalculated from time to time as the block times vary slightly. They are targeted at 1 minute per block but the average tends to run a few seconds more over time. It is possible for this to go lower than 1 minute as well as chance plays a factor.
These dates were calculate on feb 9th 2021 using 64.9 seconds per block which was a the block time average from that date back to the previous halving date. Ideally you would just look at block counts. the July 2017 block was 1793040 and every 2100000 after that it will be cut in half.

Biggest opportunity in years accumulating FTC right now..
Is there still ongoing developments in FTC? I am seeing that their market was making some movement in the past month and up until now, reaching at least 4 cents today. At least this old coin is still surviving. I remember collecting free FTC coins from faucets before. However, its price has already gone down a lot. But still, they have 2 markets - bittrex and crex.
