Topic: What is up with feathercoin? - page 2. (Read 4332 times)
I did 8 transactions this afternoon. Only 1 reach its destiny, the others are missing.
BTC-e has raised confirms to 100. This attack has failed.
Woah! That's a long time.
Hmmm it would make sense for the attackers to not process as many transactions. This would slow coins being sent to pools.

Is there any way for them to get that on BTCe to dump it?
for sure, the block chain is considered valid. So they can get the ftc on to btc-e just fine. once they have the ftc on btc-e and have their transactions confirmed (by their won miners of course) they sell their ftc for btc and then there is no reason to keep the chain going they can just drop it.
Interesting. People on BTCe are saying their FTC hasn't shown up in 40 hours. They must be on that other FTC block chain.
I tried sending 10 FTC as a test and they show up but transactions are very slow. And they need 100 at BTC-E
But I have tons of FTC in my wallet
Also 105k PXC
Another promising coin I have 60 connections.

I'll try sending 200 FTC.

What seems to be happening is people are trying to perform 51% attacks on the network. But that doesn't mean it's dead, that means it's getting more attention. The price continues to rise, the difficulty continues to drop, and the hash rate continues to grow, especially on p2pool.
In other words, all is going according to plan. As the difficulty drops and the price rises, more miners will join and the 51% attacks will become more difficult. Watching a coin get attacked on one day and declaring it dead is just silly. The community is rallying support in a major way, and while it's a little rocky ATM, the future is MORE than bright.
The first marketplace launches tomorrow at http://market.feathercoin.com and that's going to make the coin more valuable. http://bitgrenade.net has a VERY active FTC game that people are obviously enjoying, the community is growing like wildfire, and the developers are coming out with new features all the time. I don't call that dead by any stretch of the imagination.

One reason: Purely FTC mining is 'apparently' more profitable right now, so they'll continue to do that and steal money using the blocks until its less profitable than just mining BTC I'd guess.

And FTC is still trading on the exchanges with this news? The exchanges haven't halted trading yet?
btc-e has got to be asleep at the wheel on this one. I can't imagine why they haven't immediately suspended FTC. This is going to screw so many people when the "good" transactions are reversed.
The only viable alternative I see for the developers is to try to rollback the chain.
They aren't going to be able to take the chain back I don't believe without doing so.
The ultimate strangeness is it's up 30% ... ??
Yes, I don't understand that either.
Also some big orders on btc-e: https://btc-e.com/exchange/ftc_btc
