Anyone know whats up with 19800.com? Coinmarketcap hasn't been able to sync with them for days and the site seems not to be working properly.
They went down for a couple days for a site upgrade. It was slightly delayed and just happened to coincide with the ICO ban in China so it seemed a little suspicious.
I imagine the site upgrade has thrown the coinmarketcap scripts off.
On a slightly different note, have people noticed that coins are being priced lower on all the chinese exchanges? I imagine that can be attributed to the lack of confidence. At 5-15% price discrepancy it seems that there may be a nice arbitrage opportunity for anyone that has their hands dipped in both the chinese and non-chinese markets. At one point I saw the price of FTC in BTER and Bittrex differ by 20%

It feels so good to be a Feathercoin holder. Thank you bushstar for all your hard work!
Daily development leading directly to improvements in the coin is all I need to see!

Good work for sure...like to see progress 
Master dev bushstar is back on FTC now, already planning new maintenance releases. There has been a dedicated group of devs working to support FTC for years, who now have their founder back in the fold after returning from another project. That should be worth more than something, relative to the large number of scam/shitcoins being pumped out these days.
This is pretty bullish as it is. Those who are asking for a roadmap should take a hard look at this. Wrapper (bushstar?) Is already hard at work implementing a fix because solo mining and scrypt mining both don't work at the current moment, and will soon. This will catch the attention of pools that switch to the most "profitable" coin. The hashrate will spike and so will FTC attention.
I believe, based on trade volumes, that FTC is currently trading 3.8x below it's correct valuation. A 380% increase is enough to start a massive pump like the original FTC pump up to 114k satoshi. Now is definitely a buy/hodl moment in the history of Feathercoin.
There has also definitely been a rising bottom on the highest volume exchange, 19800, on the trading pair FTC/CNY, if you click the 'date line button.
Damn... I'm gonna go buy some more FTC.
Feathercoin is about to see some major gains with the release of 0.9.6.2
Quote from the above new maintenance releases.

"NeoScrypt now used for Scrypt hash generation in the code, CheckProofOfWork set to use hash and nBits instead of height same as Bitcoin and GetPoWHash toggles between Scrypt and NeoScrypt based on time instead of height as suggested by Ghostlander.

getwork has been restored in the commit in my post above. Once my client has synced the changes will be pulled into the 0.9.6.2 branch. They are currently on my own 0.9.6.2-bushstar branch."

Scrypt mining through NeoScrypt and Solo Mining are back!
Good idea, I also regret buying this coin, it looks like this shit coin
This coin lost too much traction. Litecoin at 80 and Bitcoin at 5000!
I think dev should close down FTC and relaunch it as an ICO, that seems to be where the money is at the moment.

Exactly the kind of short-term quick-profit thinking that leads to all of those short-lived shitcoins in the junkyard.
I certainly don't mind people who want to trade/arbitrage crypto like fiat. But to denigrate the technical value and fundamentals of a coin because of its current fiat value greatly misses the point.
100% agree with you Bluebox. It's these kind of investors that only jump on during pumps. Ignore them. Selling now would be a massive mistake.
1) Because the coin performs so well + founder, Peter Bushnell is back on board and is steering the ship a little more.
2) The coin will hit its all time high again, within the next year. That is the general consensus I'm getting from my trader friends.
I'm in this for the long haul anyway. I want a good performing coin with a fair store of value and wide market acceptance. I'm hoping FTC can up their marketing and sales to onboard more merchants and users because they definitely won't do it themselves in this market of 800+ cryptocurrencies. That's the only concern I have. Lack of resources = no marketing, sales etc. despite a great product offering.

Just sold mine, I am not sure if it was right, but I have received a good profit

haha there's no need to have an "initial coin offering" just to hype the coin up, especially in this current market where every coin is offering something new or solving a problem.
I think what you really mean is that marketing exercises need to be completed to ensure businesses and individuals start accepting and transacting with FTC.
We can start with this question: What would people say are the pros and cons of this coin?
I do not agree with you. I believe that soon this coin will come to life very soon. So I advise you to keep it. Until May, the price will grow x5-x10, I'll more than guarantee you.

Is this coin still afloat? I remember dumping it on btc-e like 5 years ago

Hahaha, great input! Yeah I think FTC is on its way back to its price pre Aug1 debacle. After that, a 'pump' towards the 20 - 30 cent mark. Its a solid coin, with ongoing development, and fast performance which has been around since the early days when there were no more than 10 currencies. It's always been the copper/bronze to BTC and LTC with 4x coin supply of lite and 16x of btc but not many people know about this.
Anyways, I don't care too much for all these coins with fancy solutions to problems and I don't personally need anonymity. I'm long on the currency coins like bitcoin,litecoin and feathercoin. I'd love to see feathercoin back in the mix, with more news regarding planned integration into the btc, ltc ecosystem. Lightning network, atomic swaps between these 3 currencies would work great, especially now with litecoin starting to reach higher fiat values.
but then again FTC works well on its own. Its just about market adoption, marketing, selling and always improving.

Feathercoin used to be the coin that I first mined. It had completely left my consciousness, so it does need some more PR.
Don't know if it's too late, but implementing privacy like DeepOnion does could give it a big boost.
Feathercoin used to be a big name a few years ago, so it does have that to its advantage. All it needs is something new to hook people in again.
How many coins can I mine with a Radeon r9 290x?

what was he working onHe was contracted to Hullcoin but they reached a funding hiatus and breached contract. I'm certainly excited that he's back. Not sure if its on a full-time or part-time basis as none of the devs are paid. They do a great job given the circumstances!
I'd love to make a donation to the dev team if FTC ever moons.
Cool that Bushstar is back on the job. Looking at Litecoin (and Peercoin and a couple of others), 'classic' coins have some difficulty keeping traction in a see of cryptocurrencies with various types of applications other than just being currency. Feathercoin needs some very good PR to profit from the general rise of the market. I say so because I sense that the classic POW is perceived less attractive with the Bitcoin scaling debate lingering on, and the trouble with miners vs developers. Coins like Byteball and IOTA that do not have a classic blockchain, take an other approach. In addition, the concept of 'no fees' currencies (IOTA, RaiBlocks) is coming up strong.
So it will be though for Fearthercoin, my beloved Feathercoin, to stay relevant.
