So DECENT will become indeed a legal porn network? Interesting!  Shocked
The digital fingerprinting will be applicable on any content this is just one of the use-cases.
But still funny to see that this is the first use case  Grin Grin Grin
You should arrange some more "decent" use cases - so we could go on some traditional newspapers  Wink
Its not the first use-case. We have many partners from other industries.

How exactly do you mine decent? is it POW? or is it POS?
do you need a gpu to mine this coin? what algo is it?
If this is a POS, the more you have the more you mine?
DCT will be mined through Proof of Custody which means you have to share your bandwidth and storage.

Hi, can i please get the answer on my qustions? I think it's a legitimate question for every investor.

Will Hollywood movies, UFC, tv shows and similar content be removed after DCMA lawsuits?

This are important questions, whole success might depends on this question, and if DECENT teams will remove this kind of content i don't see this project succeeding, thepiratebay will still be the kind in this area.
Hi once the content is on the network we remove it. The content is placed there for given time by the author. It is possible to filter pirate content on Gateways but not in the core of the protocol currently. The network is ran by its users.
10  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: Some thoughts on DECENT ICO so far.. on: September 16, 2016, 01:33:45 PM
Hi all


first of all - I invested a small amount in the project and wanted to share some thoughts/concerns I have:

1. the newsletter did not reach all participants on time regarding the ICO, and looking at the bitcoins invested, the first few hours was HEAVY invested - i think the first one was 200BC and other similar sums
I read the glitches part - sounds more like an excuses. What will be when the real technical challenges will take place? Handling newsletter and simple API/website with 2FA is not the most complicated thing out there

2. The team - the founders are not technical guys, meaning a lot of devs will need to be hired and paid. Not sure what the founders will do in the next few months. Who is gonna be paid from ICO money and how much?
Not to offend, but going over the team info from the website, it sounded a bit forced: "...helping to organize events...", "supporting the community"... nothing actual that I could see
Besides Marián Hvizdoš few words I couldn't see much more. Also - he says it CAN become this and that, he is the escrow of the project... donno, kinda fishy to me

3. Some technical impressions so far:
    a. ICO portal (after login) - looks clumsy to say the least.

    b. No google authentication, which is MUST for every ICO and other platform that respect itself ( I participated in few ICOs - all had google auth).
        This one time code-to-email looong line looks bad, the menu to chose from (only 1 option) looks almost amateur

    c. Need to login again if u want to see updated info.. no refresh??

    d. Things just DONT work: Contact us form in the official website generates error in white letters over gray background - really hard to read it.
        Where are the email addresses?? support@decent... Why just a web form? what happens if it doesn't work? what are the alternative ways to contact you exactly?
        Do you really expect us to visit you there? Who is there anyway??


 I know it is the beginning of the ICO, BUT it does't matter - coding is coding and the above points show me little dev skills or "let's publish it fast, doesn't matter how it looks like"


4. Coins distribution - definitely not my cup of tea - why ppl get less if they join during the ICO? It is acceptable not to get any bonus, but the fixed price should be the same - total cons issued/total funds
And no, cutting the bonus after X weeks is NOT the same as giving different price per token - 10% less every week??

5. Seems like the team is flying around the globe lately - from far east to USA, Bahamas?!!? Why Bahamas - is it a strategic place to be during the first week of your ICO?
New offices in Shanghai.. So, if your center is located in the far east - what r u doing in the Bahamas? Who is funding the flights/hotels/drinks? Is it the ICO money perhaps?

have some more, but that is a good start

Waiting for your thoughts
Hi, thank you for your thoughts.

1. We are using Mailchimp as a newsletter provider.
2. Dunno where you got this information. Matej Michalko studied Computer Science at EPFL in Switzerland and I studied mathematics and physics. The ICO money are not being used right now. Marian Hvizdos isn't escrow on the project he just endorsed the project because he believes in it.
3. As said before and cleared in the latest announcement regarding the ICO software, we used platform from Stratis and cooperated directly with Chris on it.
4. This price decrease is there to reward the earliest supporters.
5. DECENT is looking to become global project therefore we need to ensure the community is built up around the globe. This is currently payed from our own resources. You can see that ICO funds are still in the wallet https://blockchain.info/address/33WDB3nsVHH5qafCAriPb8Jmb1e3ptsY4h

Hope my answers satisfied you.

Please not everyone Liqui is SCAM and its not supported by DECENT at all. We recommend you to not use their services or you risk loosing your funds.

DECENT receives support and cooperation from the biggest p2p lending company in China https://decent.ch/decent-opening-office-shanghai/

thnx for the answer, what about child porn or such?
This can be filtered on the gateways. Also the content is set to be on the network for given time which is set by the author and there fore publishing fee is counted. Yes this content can get on the network but won't be displayed in gateways supported by DECENT.
14  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] DECENT Announcement - Decentralizing Content Distribution on: September 14, 2016, 09:18:29 PM
it would be cool to get answers on my question before 10% bonus time is over because after that i won't invest no matter what the answers are.

Here are my questions again:

Hello, the total amount of DCT will be counted according to ICO results. The amount of DCT sold during the ICO represents 70% of the overall amount ever issued.

Ok if i got it right, lets say you collect 10000 BTC in the ICO, it would issue around 50 billion tokens + another 30% = 65 billion tokens.
If this is overwall it means there will be no inflation as mining rewards?



DECENT is a protocol. Our aim is to provide a place where authors can share their genuine content.
Copyrights and everything related to this can be solved on the application layer.

By other words DMCA lawsuits or any other copyright lawsuits will trigger you guys to delete copyrighted content? If this is the case then we again have the middleman, and it's you or moderators that you guys select? Also if you guys will delete the files, your purpose is dying, thepiratebay has everything listed.
Hi the 30% percent serves for mining rewards. DECENT is fully distributed technology we are unable to delete files from the network. We won't even know what files are up on the network nor will we operate the network as it is fully distributed mechanism operated by its users. Similar to bittorrent in this way. The content on the network is encrypted. Yes there is possibility of gateways where the content can be filtered but core network and reference client will stay the same. DECENT is open-source so anyone can build applications on top of it based in manner how DECENT Network works.

Why did I not recieved 50% bonus? Shocked

I created a transfer 5 minutes after ICO starts and I have got only week1....


yesterday I invested some sat in decent. It says "bonus - week1". I sent my btc before the 10hr countdown was over. Is "week1" = 50% bonus?

It was first 10 million decent bought that got the 50% bonus. Most likely it was used as a way for a certain investor to secretly get cheaper coins and allow this platform to claim fully "decentralized" and open to the public.
Due to technical issues the bonus was extended up to 11pm GMT. The balance update will be done manually later this week.
16  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] DECENT Announcement - Decentralizing Content Distribution on: September 12, 2016, 08:40:50 AM
It has been many hours. On my balance 0 BTC. What does it mean? Help me to understand.
Try to relog please.
17  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] DECENT Announcement - Decentralizing Content Distribution on: September 11, 2016, 10:50:21 PM
Where is my 50% bonus. I have deposited my share of BTC as soon as the ICO went live and yet I was pushed for 10% bonus. Not fair!!
It will be adjusted manually. If you got in till 11pm GMT its ok.
18  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] DECENT Announcement - Decentralizing Content Distribution on: September 11, 2016, 09:36:55 PM
What the fuck? I mean what the fuck? Why the fuck do I have week1 (10%) bonus? According to the blockchain my BTC were sent to the main address at about 1:30 PM GMT when also there was about 500 BTC in the wallet (I sent BTC to my ICO address few minutes after 1:00 PM GMT).

If it's not going to be fixed you will accused in a SCAM.


As I sad before Bonus was extended it will be addressed manually so you will get your balance updated.
19  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] DECENT Announcement - Decentralizing Content Distribution on: September 11, 2016, 05:02:01 PM
Could you post the DETAILED OFFICITIAL RULE here?

When does the account need to be registered? when does the BTC need to be sent through?

What is 3 hours? what is 10 hours? so confused. Is 50% still valid now?

I am just thinking of Investing some bitcoin in the ICO is the 50% bonus still active in the ICO  if i am depositing will i get 50% bonus and how much is the minimum to be deposit.

The bonus is still active. It was extended because of initial problems with registration.
Yes we will post it soon. The 50% is till 11pm GMT. 10% will be displayed and will be manually adjusted later.
20  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] DECENT Announcement - Decentralizing Content Distribution on: September 11, 2016, 04:52:15 PM
Team, I don't understand why 10% bonus now. Please explain ...

First 10m that were sold included a 50% bonus for early investors, now they have been sold the bonus has been decreased to 10% for the first week.

Whoa!  I thought Decent team was extending the bonus to everyone for 10 hours.  If the 10mil DCT was the limit, then what was the need to tell the world about "10 hour" limit?  Doesn't make any sense.  This is a terrible way to cause misunderstanding.



I would recommend no new investments until DECENT team explains.


Due to extension of the bonus period we have to adjust the balances manually which will be done later this week. Thank you for your understanding!
