Post by: Wheatclove on May 20, 2017, 08:55:59 PM
Quorum for both voting agendas was reached yesterday. More details on that can be found here: https://thedecreddigest.com/2017/05/20/quorum-reached/

Status for voting here: https://voting.decred.org

Explanation on voting here: https://docs.decred.org/getting-started/user-guides/agenda-voting/

The research that has gone into the new stake difficulty algorithm proposal: https://github.com/decred/dcps/blob/master/dcp-0001/dcp-0001.mediawiki

What do you all think? Pretty impressive/cool if you ask me.

If Decred gets Lightning Network it will be because a super-majority (75%) of coin holders who wanted to vote asked for it. Coin holders decide the future of Decred. That's how we roll!

I'm a long time DCR holder, this is the first time PoS have way more significant meaning other than collecting interest, securing the network.  
I was really exciting when I made my fist vote, both YES for sdiff algorithm and Lighting Network integration.

Great project, great developer, great community(mostly active on slack channel). I m still holding and now with more purpose and ofc confidence that someday DCR will to the MOON.

Exactly! You're getting a yield of 30%+ per year to participate in securing the network and voting for future features that will add tremendous value to this coin. I think once people understand these dynamics there will be significant investor interest in Decred, we are still at the early adopter stage.

Actually it is +40% per year if you solo pos, the ROR is crazy, thats why I am still holding, wait for DCR team to fulfill this roadmap: https://blog.decred.org/2017/01/09/2017-Decred-Roadmap/
