That is some very presumptuous statement there.

Made me laugh.

No Litecoin doesn't need a merge mine partner coin. But it sure does seem Feathercoin needs to hurry up and get moving after over a year of really no development aside from changing mining time/parameters which in my view was a mistake.

The level-playing-field when Feathercoin was launched has changed many times. The rules were set from the beginning and now have had to change multiple times given the developer(s) did not plan FTC out well and resorted to much of a copy-paste mantra when starting, hence all of the changes over time and now the big one...changing the mining algorithm...which should have been done over a year ago.

Honestly I think it is too late. There are so many other options for alt coins which have a better development track record than feathercoin.
