The name "Flopcoin" is an homage to the "Floptropica" meme community and thus is considered a memecoin. Beyond being just a store of value or a digital currency, we hope to integrate Flopcoin into a tipping platform that spans across all social media services to allow rewarding your favorite content creators.
The Flopcoin Core software allows anyone to operate a node in the Flopcoin blockchain network and use the Scrypt hashing method for Proof of Work. It is adapted from Dogecoin Core, Bitcoin Core, and other cryptocurrencies.
For information about the default fees used on the Flopcoin network, please refer to the [fee recommendation](doc/fee-recommendation.md).

Running a Full Node
Running a full node helps contribute to the Flopcoin network's security and decentralization by relaying data to other nodes and verifying transactions. If you would like to run a full node, simply download the Flopcoin Core wallet, let the blockchain fully sync, and ensure your network has port 32552 forwarded to allow incoming connections.
| Default Port | 32552 |
