[ANN][DCR] Decred - Community Governance | Bitcoin Devs | Lightning Network

Anyone else getting "Error at Wallet Service: Insight Error" on the WebWallet? What does it mean?

Had this a few times last night. after about 10 mins it appeared to sort it self out. This morning the wallet refreshed and worked first time

[CryptoMaik]

To those thinking it's a scam, I would like to tell that I received my 282 DCR (I also would prefer to switch to XDC) from the airdrop.
From now, let's see how things are evolving...

Noone spoke about scam.
Just why some user didn't received airdrop after confirmation link.
They made a manually check on every entry (as they said....) , then give a confirmation link.
Then they removed automatically?
Sound strange eh?

Litecred was way more fair as airdrop.

It dosen't matter how laud you will scream, they always will say you're FUDing and gonna insult you.

Maybe the problems with Decred is coming by the huge amount of traffic at the moment.

BTC was $1

Value is rarely seen

We have just started. Not even 1% of ETH's let alone BTC's market cap.

0.4BTC price would put us at ETH market cap parity.

I think you don't have to fear of a dump from airdrop users. We saw a little dumpfest on the very begining in the first few hours, but most of the weak hands fell out then. Now the price is climbing strongly with huge buy support

[Hagart]

Patience is a virtue...

[mladen00]

I believe in Decred and team behind it

Now i have more than 600 DCR, going to buy 400 more

and then waiting

i will reply this post a year from now and we will see

[pineapples]

Is there any guide to using the wallet?

I'm guessing i'll need to add
externalip
to a .conf, but know not where the file should be??


Full history.
First it generates this error :
19:18:53 2016-02-09 [ERR] DCRW: Unable to create HTTP server: 'fe80::1%lo0' is not a valid IP address

Then from  https://github.com/btcsuite/btcd/blob/master/sample-btcd.conf

; Specify the external IP addresses your node is listening on.  One address per
; line.  btcd will not contact 3rd-party sites to obtain external ip addresses.
; This means if you are behind NAT, your node will not be able to advertise a
; reachable address unless you specify it here or enable the 'upnp' option (and
; have a supported device).
; externalip=1.2.3.4
; externalip=2002::1234

But using : externalip=x.x.x.x

results in
/Users/User/Library/Application Support/Dcrwallet/dcrwallet.conf:1: unknown option: externalip



EDIT
Going to decred forum to check it out.

I posted this a long time ago. Anyone who read it & used it should have saved themselves a lot of cursing and trouble. Apparently devs didn't read it. That is why they only had single webwallet, explorer, fortunately more than one pool. Also the main functionality promised is all there but very crude, mainly commands/interface to properly use voting & PoS pool & need a lot of work from devs. I hope that they will reveal there airdrop addresses in next announcement so that everyone involved is assured about there honesty. Also the lots of new features are not visible because they are not gimmicks like anon messaging or other useless features that are easy to use & can be hyped. These are mostly for governance & decision making so you need to understand how things work before you can use them. I personally will not stake or move my coins until i know how to use coin control, be it CLI or GUI. Some of the disappointment is justified but it doesn't mean coin is not working, its just half baked IMO. Although I still give credit to devs for technical competence, its just they didn't have enough people in community to help others out. I hope we get some good peeps with some PR skills and more people helping with guides/documentation. I hope we see more detailed functionality in the future.

Aidrop addresses list is already public:
https://github.com/decred/dcrd/blob/master/chaincfg/premine.go

If you have a confirmation link registered and your address is not on list, you have been excluded.
That's the problem: They got 8k partecipants, they removed all scammer and apply only 3.2k checking manuyally every entry.
What is happened then since many users received no coins even after manually approvation?

It seems that there was another verification where from 3244 confirmed participants they excluded another 10% from the airdrop so final airdrop participants number is around 2970

Right, this is the problem. Another verification based on what?
An "inside verirfication?" Like "we have 3 same ip , probably they are scammer, let's delete them from the list". "hey, but maybe they work in same office, we have already made manually verification and approved." "shut up an delete".
I didn't received any further communication by email or pm for this "another verification process".

Aniway, good luck. Hope decred will succed in crypto world.

They said that the additional filter will be made public soon, no info yet on what was that. Probably it was around the confirmation when people weren't careful enough, or if they could not provide ip in the same range for application and confirmation for example if someone used proxies to register and or confirm
