Easiest way to get FTC, right away
-
The main problem I am personally experiencing in adopting feathercoin is in the acquisition of the coins to spend. I wired over 15k to BTC-E and am now waiting 22 more days before I can withdraw.
Recommend adding a purchasing mechanism directly in the feathercoin wallet software or at least a tab of links on where you can get it right away.
Need to come up with crafty ways to flow dollars into feathercoin fast.
BTW - Anyone else notice Ebay price of feathercoin? Its through the roof, $0.50 per coin.

[/quote]CoinBase.com is much friendlier, and they only make you wait 5 days. CampBX is supposed to be launching their new ACH service on the 27th.

[/quote]There’s presently already a healthy amount of exchange competition.
If you’re talking about running an exchange, that’s a separate project and is unrelated to the wallet, and the regulatory landscape makes this monetarily unfeasible without venture capitol level investment. It’s also a full time job, as demonstrated by the existing exchanges, and therefore better left to an entrepreneur rather than the community as a hobby project. It’s also very unpopular to launch a new exchange right now unless you offer innovative features. MCXNow is a good example of this: They puttered along for a while before they got any serious volume due to increased interested with their revenue sharing program. Crypto-trade.com still has a fraction of the volume DESPITE having a FTC/USD pair. Finally, it’s VERY risky to do, since you’re opening yourself up to hacking while holding onto other people’s money.
Linking directly to other services in the wallet requires preferential treatment of one service over another, and that eliminates impartiality.

[/quote]EBay is a very risky way to go for the seller, since the buyer can reverse the transaction long after the coins have been sent. Crypto-trade currently has some good arbitrage opportunities though.
