I get that too ghostlander.
It's not so much the immediate gain. More looking down the road. 3-5 year plan ... FTC still here?
In order to thrive your gonna need an awesome possum network. The anti-ASIC POW sector is a bit crowded. How can FTC stand out from the competition?
This is not forking FTC, but getting NeoScrypt as smart place to launch new POW projects in years 2017-2025. Feather takes the lead to make Neo MM "friendly/plug-n-play" for other coins. That makes FTC is a mighty big oak tree that lots of
microcoins can take shade under. Anyways, the move is a necessary must have feather in your cap since your most immediate competitor already has MM ... that side projects called monocle? You can launch a new coin that's MM as a beta test before forking a already functioning project ... say UFO or whoever in the Neoscrypt that is in need of a hash boost.
Again this is long term vision, and likely won't garner much public attention right now, it is about being positioned right for the future. Going to neoScrypt was the first step, finding the best way to build up that network is the next step.
BONUS ... a few well branded POW scrypts would likely come over to your side as well since the ASICs are slowly squeezing in and will have the same effect as what happened to SHA256 alts. NeoScrypt is to FTC as SHA256 is to bitcoin ... and it be wisest to have lots of friends merge mining at your side
... besides the Doge coin in this scenario is evident
Hi, thank you for interesting input.
I think main goal for FTC should be fix all what BTC is doing wrong in as currency.
With that said, its fine to ignore most of 2.0 garbage and focus on basics.
There are 3 huge problems BTC is facing right now: scalability, speed, miners
FTC is already better with first 2 issues, 3rd is bit more complicated.
