As nobody seems to have posted this:

Network Upgrade and Service Outage (Decred Mainnet):

Consensus changes were implemented on August 29, including a shift to BLAKE3 and ASERT algorithms, this had caused some mining issues initially, but these were resolved within 24 hours.
ASERT algorithm adjustment restored normal block production speed quickly.

Development:

Dcrd (Decred's full node implementation) update, now calculating difficulty every block.

Progress towards Ledger Integration:

Ledger enabled on mainnet.
DCRDEX module updated to v0.6.3 with new "extension mode" for wallet protection.

Updated VSP Fee Calculation and Missed Tickets:

Gominer development to address dominance by GPU miners, allowing anyone to mine with GPUs.

BLAKE3 GPU Mining:

Custom optimized BLAKE3 OpenCL kernel for GPU mining, CUDA support for overclocks and fan speed control on Nvidia cards.
Gominer aims to make GPU mining fairer and more accessible.

Other Changes (Dcrpool):

Build code updated to Go 1.21 and PostgreSQL 16.0.

After Decred management team pulled a scam with miners, everyone knows this project governance is big sham.  Why did you invite to buy ASICs when you don't like miners? You only like coinholder voting because you are the biggest coinholders (companyzero, Jake Yocom Piatt, Jonathan Zeppettini) since the premine.


Decred Governance is a sham to avoid accountability and evade their legal responsibility. No matter what public wants, the big insiders can use veto power. The master plan is clear for anyone with a brain:



Step 1 Premine 1.6M DCR coins
Step 2 Allow yourself (companyzero) to take unlimited money from treasury without public stakeholder approval
Step 3 Implement Coinjoin privacy to hide the whale holdings
Step 4 Make a fake "retirement" Announcement (and keep the controlling coins share)


Step 1-3 are done now, only step 4 remaining. Soon they will make a fake retirement post on Decred Blog. In truth, they will continue to control the project supply and governance.


The privacy feature hides the whale holdings now, but the public data since 2017 shows the insider whale holdings. Solo whale is holding 400,000 DCR tokens. Since they admitted not selling the premine to now, simple staking since 2017 means multiplying the holding by many times already. This is why there is many people who know about the 2 Million DCR to 3 million insider estimate as common knowledge.

Check yourself. This is from 2017:

You can see solo staking, and you can still verify the addresses in block explorer.

You can't be mad about accumulating and HODLing... That's what makes price go up.
If you believe in something, buy it, hold it, stake it.

It is impossible to buy a ticket, when buying it is loading, about an hour, then it does not buy and you try to buy again and everything starts over again. The ticket price is growing very quickly and sharply, I wrote about this problem in discord, they said that this is the problem of those who cannot buy. It looks like intentional cheating by the developers, there is a problem and they use it for their own profit.

Check if you're running the latest version before you start crying "cheating."

dcrwallet v2.0.5
This release includes fixes to increase the mixing reliability and improves startup syncing when operating in in SPV mode.

All mixing users should upgrade to this release to maintain the maximum anonymity set.

If you are, swing by the support channel on Matrix (https://chat.decred.org/?updated=1.11.30#/room/#support:decred.org) and we'll sort you out.

That's important. Tested and working.
Ticket prices are definitely too high to build any kind of following, but nobody is cheating.

You could argue that anyone in favor of high ticket price is cheating themselves out of a stronger project.

I can't buy a ticket in any pool, the latest version. It's been loading for an hour, and then it doesn't buy again, I haven't been able to buy a ticket for several months, I wrote about it in discord, but no one cares about such a bug.

it seems problem is on your side, maybe try initiate a transaction rescan - this can resolve some problems.
just look below , it works for me:

[karel0001]

It seems like there are mixed experiences with ticket purchasing, which might point to specific configurations or setup issues. For those encountering problems, ensuring you're running the latest version (e.g. dcrwallet v2.0.5) and performing a transaction rescan can help resolve some issues. The Matrix support channel is also a good resource for troubleshooting

While I agree that high ticket prices can be discouraging for broader adoption, it's crucial to differentiate between technical bugs and intentional actions. If the issue persists, it would help to have detailed reports to escalate this more effectively with the developers

I set up Bisonrelay, but its page of invites was blank so I do not even see any "public" channels or topics or anything.

I posted in Altcoin Discussion several days ago figuring first try for a contact I'd not limit myself to users who happen to keep up to date with this thread, but that has not garnered me any connections at all.

So, I am back to this thread to ask here...

I do not know how sensitive invites are, if direct messaging here isn't secure enough for you, you are welcome to reach me as username knotwork on keybase.

Evidently I need at least one connection even just to being to get an idea of what Bisonrelay is really like...
