Decred is so close to 0.01....really close....I think it can go there before the sunday rise

The target is 0.1 btc by the end of the year
A lot is coming in 2017

- Integration with trezor, ledger, jaxx and one that still cann't be revealed
- Decisions taken by the community through voting on an smart blockchain that implements the result automatically without human intervention. (A test has already been performed on testnet and everything worked without fail. Rumors say it comes from alien tech from Vulcan planet)
- Smart contracts
- Conversion in DAO - Decentralized Autonomous Organization
- Innovative anonymity system that still cann't be revealed

There is one factor that can counteract the strong growth of Decred - this is high inflation. Yes, it will decline, but at this stage it is about 50% per annum. This is very much.


After 3 years of release, Decred will have around the same number than btc after 3 years.
In addition, about 40% of the airdrop was lost.

Hi,

I am new to Decred. I think its a good project with great team and vision. I want to do PoS with my Dcr. I am a newbie. Stakepool would be ideal for me because I can't be online all the time. Do you recommend me to join stakepool here https://evolution.dcrstats.com or using paymetheus wallet as you described? What's the difference between the two?

Anyone doing the Pos in stakepool can please through some numbers? like if you had 1000 DCR in stakepool, what would be the payouts like daily or monthly? Appx numbers are fine. Thank you.


While in the official pools you don't have risk of lose your coins, in evolution this security doesn't exist because you need to send your coins to him.
Evolution isn't an official service from decred devs, it is an third party service created by the owner of dcrstats pool.

POS mining is yielding about 3-5% per month

...

So Decred is getting the best of the current bitcoin chain options when/if successfully implemented, though still not quite as good as Monero style ring signatures right?

I assume trustless is better than trusted, but I dont really understand it all that well, I just need someone to say if its the best Tongue

An anonymous system that isn't trustless and decentralized the dev can create coins and no one knows or keep logs of the transactions and sell them to NSA.

I'm not a fan of zcash or zcoin, but this is just misinformation. Yes, the zcash trusted setup could allow the creation of coins that no one could detect on the blockchain (zcoin coin creation was due to an implementation bug, unrelated to this), but as far as anyone knows, the anonymity provided by zcash is trustless - there's no way anyone could "keep logs" of the txs.


I didn't refer to zcash.
I was talking about what "trustless" means on crypto currencies.

hello!

i had my dcr wallet offline for a long while because i've lost connection to the host where it's installed.
once the host went online again, i've restarted the wallet and saw how all my live tickets went missed, amen...
i didn't re-enable staking, however after about two months from restart i notice most of my budget is still locked:

...

why?
when can i expect my dcr to get unlocked?

thank you


If "rebroadcastmissed" won't help, recreate your wallet from seed. Be sure, that daemon is fully synced before recreate.

Add: I'm not sure is there also 256 block delay,  starting from that point where you reconnected your wallet and tickets hit missed. If so, your funds are usable after that (around 24 hours)


Maybe you are using an outdated wallet.
Try with the last one that is 0.8.2 and can be downloaded at www.decred.org
If you use windows, the last version of the gui wallet paymetheus is excellent.
Very easy to POS mine with it. There's a tutorial with pics on brasil stake pool https://stake.decredbrasil.com
If this doesn't help, it is better to enter on slack, #support channel and talk with a dev.

I read somewhere that they where planning to implement some privacy features on this, does anyone know what type?

From my understanding they will be working on some new variation of zk-SNARK. You can find out here: https://blog.decred.org/2017/01/09/2017-Decred-Roadmap/

Thankyou.

Do you know this compares to Zerocoin?

*edit*

Ignore that, I did a little googling its a version of the same thing I think.

Zerocoin is a centralized anon system that needs trustworthy on dev.
Decred system will be decentralized and trustless

Even though the price is as high as ever, I consider investing more in Decred. It seems to be ahead of the hyped DASH, imho. And looking at the Roadmap for 2017 it  has a ton of potential.
1) Can someone explain to me how private DCR transactions really are? Is it more like Bitcoinish pseudonymous or Moneroish anonymous?
2) Also, what is the best resource page to see which of the proposals are actually implemented?

Thanks in advance!


edit: While I'm at it, one more question:
3a) What is the average block-time for DCR?
I saw that lightning network is in the work to be implemented.
3b) Am I right that this would make the implementation of a "instant-send" function unnecessary?

I can already answer 3a) myself: This stat page is great -> https://dcrstats.com/ - It has avg. 5 minute blocks.
Anyone can help me with my other questions?


The Decred privacy system is totally innovative and different of everything on the market. Until it's 100% ready it will be kept in total secrecy

an update should be release on April right? exactly when and what is that? thanks

Will be the release of v1.0
The out of beta phase.
Wallets with gui, POS mining and voting for all OSs.
There will also be the first vote on mainnet.
Remembering that the vote on testnet was a success and the decision implemented automatically in the blockchain without human intervention. Alien tech  Grin

I don't want to start a holy war here but could somebody explain me what advantages DCR has over the DASH? How are they differs?

Hey daily_elephant,

Decred has a 1 tier network.  Dash has a 2 tier network (masternodes).  With Decred, your coins are locked after purchasing tickets (voting rights) (constraining the supply).  With Dash, you can sell a masternode at any time.  With Decred, anyone can vote / participate.  With Dash, only the wealthy can participate.  With Decred, upgrades are precoded into the chain.  The chain automatically switches to the upgrades after a successful "yes" vote.  With Dash, the developers must then code the upgrade after the vote and hope everyone switches.  Decred is a decentralized autonomous organization (DAO), designed from the ground up.  It has a unique consensus system (which makes an "ethereum classic situation" impossible), is self funding, and is written from scratch in Golang by very well respected bitcoin developers (BTC Suite).

You can read more about Decred in official docs:

https://docs.decred.org

Also you can join Slack and ask more questions here:

https://slack.decred.org/


Thank you Diegox! Can you add the privacy issue to your explanation? Dash started as a privacy coin and privacy is in high demand now days. Are transactions on Decred traceble? Does Decred includes mixing or other technology?

As appear on the roadmap, Jake Yocom-Piatt is developing a completely innovative privacy system based on ZK.




DCR/USD exchange available soon?

Does Decred have any other interesting features aside from governance?

- Lightning Network  
- Privacy project with a new and unique anon system
- Smart contracts  
- Payment integration support

Here's a video showing hard fork voting

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gdLdOYZxY9k&feature=youtu.be

As i said before, Decred has the first "smart blockchain", which implements the voting result automatically, without human interference. Decred will be really decentralised. Will be a real DAO.
All security measures have been taken in the code so that in case of hard fork it is not possible to use the previous one, as happened with ETH / ETC.

hardforking POC demo is pretty amazing so far  Cool good job devs! can't wait for quality anon features!! devs have been producing HQ code for months now.





Cant wait for revolutionary Decred wallet with hard fork voting feature in April. By this time, developers need to prepare a large PR campaign, to seriously increase the number of investors and expand the community. Although every day more and more traders learn more about Decred and that along with the introduction of many innovative features will ensure a steady increase in the popularity of the project.


The PR campaign is coming  Cool



I was looking at the pay outs for proof of stake. It's pro rata as I see it? I don't have to have a minimum of 1000 DEC or? Is there a good reference to explain the tickets etc?

Thanks!


The minimum to start POS mining is the purchase of 1 ticket.
Currently it costs 55 DCR but each round this value is changed according to the demand.
The ticket has two functions: mining and voting.
With a ticket you also express your will in the votes to decide the future of the currency.
When your ticket is voted, you receive the amount paid by him (55 DCR) + 1.5 DCR as result of mining.

Take a look here: https://docs.decred.org

Is there a reason for the sudden increase?

- The success of hard fork voting on testnet.
Decred has the first "smart blockchain", which implements the voting result automatically, without human interference.
Decred will be really decentralised. Will be a real DAO.
All security measures have been taken in the code so that in case of hard fork it is not possible to use the previous one, as happened with ETH / ETC.

Grats $DCR I see big potential, sad to only start accumulating now.
only 10mil marketcap, better now start accumulating than later  Grin huge upside potential + alien tech = worth the risk!

Yes, alien technology is a big plus.  Rumor is that that dev team is actually comprised of aliens.

It's obvious that alien tech from planet Vulcan is behind hard fork voting.
I heard Spock is in Decred dev team.
How else could humans develop a smart blockchain that automatically implements the voting result?

How come when buying tickets through paymetheus It often says insuffecient funds to construct transaction when I clearly have enough. sometimes 300+ decred cant even buy one  50decred ticket

After a ticket is voted, the coins appear in the wallet but can only be used after 256 blocks (~ 20 hours).
There is a small bug in which they appear before as "spendable", but in reality they are not yet.
This will be fixed in the next version.
