I agree.

"Where there is no vision, there is no hope."
-George Washington Carver

Having started my own businesses as well as in my time working for the man... I can't stress enough, the importance of targets. A roadmap will set clear targets out. The team right now are extremely restricted with human resources so I understand timeframes may not be able to be set.

But like I said Smart goals or targets are always required. Specific, measurable, achievable, relevant and timely.

If you need help, advertise it and we can all pitch in to spread the word. We can't however, dawdle and crawl along while everyone else has the hunger and competitive edge to continue innovating and marketing. Like I said, we cannot exist to merely exist. We must compete.

I think feathercoin has some really good fundamentals and has been around long enough to prove its worth. Only a couple things are lacking and I wish for the dev team to be more open minded to some suggestions. I wish the team luck and will help where I can. 

Good suggestions!!!

bushstar please make FTC 100% anonymous like monero and zcash,  implement smart contracts like eth and neo and add quantium computer resitance like the newest coins have!

Then we finally can raise adoption to 2 billion$ marketcap where we belong!

Good news! So now it's time to buy some Feathercoin at cheap price.


It's really
Roadmap is the Plan of the development and the presence of Roadmap is quitely neccesary for any project

Not agree much about roadmap in terms that it is marketing hype. If it is done regularly it is not hype and it could be done without time schedule for sure.

Couldn't agree more

Good news so bushstar is here...waiting for other news

OP Updated.

Newbie account, you can barely expect any good contribution from newbie trolls in here :I

Are you ready to contribute or just talking? Although calling out the devs with no evidence isn't a good way to introduce yourself either...

A road map is good if you are able to follow it in time. Otherwise it serves no purpose other than a marketing hype. I don't do these and I'm sure most of the others involved also don't.

The original founder, Peter Bushnell seems to be back after finishing up his contract with Hullcoin.

He is working on porting the 0.13.2 codebase to Feathercoin. I'm not 100% sure about the technicals. I'm merely an investor and currency user.

My experience with the forum veterans, moderators, and devs is somewhat underwhelming. They seem to be just focused on fixing bugs and minor upgrades. Everytime I mention the need for a roadmap, widespread use of the coin, marketing activities, and segwit compatibility, I'm immediately shot down. They're happy with the way things are. Don't get me wrong, FTC performs well with fast block times, fairly decent UX and an active community.

But they've got developer tunnel vision, just focusing on the technical side when they need to understand that there is a reason for everything. For FTC to be great, for the technical developments to be of value, we need to see widespread use. We need a roadmap.We need merchants to accept it and we need people to be aware of it. Anytime I ask about this, they insinuate that I'm a pump and dumper. It's not that at all. I like how fast the coin is and the history of it. I just think there can be improvements to marketing and considering other ideas for the coin to go mainstream. If these things aren't even considered, and they don't try to even compete, their work will be for nothing... and I will have to dump based on lack of vision, purpose, and use cases.

With Peter back, this is great news!. I'm hoping that he can bring back a more holistic vision and remind the devs and veterans exactly why a cryptocurrency exists and what it will take for their work to be of any value.



 

Bitcoin seems hit 4000$ soon. But Feathercoin is slow down the price and also the difficulty. Maybe some news from the Dev will glad us...

looks like this coin dead, no significant development, no news after halving, too bad good coin developed by stupid programmer, shame on FTC 

Pretty excited about bitcoin hitting 3500! Wonder what that means for ftc. Any news about getting added to bithumb, okcoin, or other massive volume exchanges?

10K is hard!
Although the FTC is still alive, it has been limited.

BTC-E seems lost forever, not responding about 2 weeks. BUT Feathercoin is alive and still enough strong I hope. Still hold some FTC until 10k sats)

you could find fast response at https://forum.feathercoin.com/, dev active at FTC forum

This not syncing is getting rather annoying. Have had to do this 3 separate times and on 3 separate computers just in case there was something wrong with my system and over the course of 2 days and still wont sync.

FTC was delisted there 2 years ago.

They will release something near future, the clue is clear.
