About Feathercoin

Feathercoin is a Litecoin fork launched in 2013, designed to be more accessible for everyday GPU miners while maintaining the security improvements of its parent. Using the NeoScrypt algorithm (replacing the original Scrypt), Feathercoin provides better ASIC resistance than Litecoin. With a 336 million coin supply — four times Litecoin's — and 60-second block times, Feathercoin offers faster, lower-cost transactions as a peer-to-peer digital currency.
