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

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

I see a lot of adresses with 5000 coins. What is this? VIP airdrop?

@DEVS: CHANGE YOUR TICKER FINALLY!! Coin with ticker "DCR" already exists for a long time, it is active and trading at Yobit. You are hijacking another coin, and creating conflict and confusion without good reason! People buying/selling one coin thinking it is another one!

Using ticker of another asset is also utterly unprofessional, I am surprised to see such level of ignorance from a supposedly professional crypto team.

Also - there were posts from one of the devs in this thread where he promised the Decred will not use DCR ticker. Its not a good sign to have broken promises from the very start  . The one who brakes his promise once, will brake it again and again. I start to doubt the integrity and legitimity of this coin owners...

Sam, half baked things are never good. I got my airdrop coins, imported in web wallet, but now after few hours it's not working. It's giving me Insight Error. I'm not eager to sell the coins cause I would like to see how this will develop, but first impressions and signs are not good. People can't control their coins, price pump started, nethash pump started as well... Devs knew how much people participated for airdrop than they should know that much more will be on PoW lounch and what they did? They prepared 2 family sedan cars to transport 8000 people on 1000 km trip. That is not how you handle seriuos business.

Is part of the plan i suggest...if everything went smoothly 80% of the airdrop is dumped within 6 hours. And the coin crashed in price.

Also addresses from Line 11(https://github.com/decred/dcrd/blob/master/chaincfg/premine.go#L11) to Line 184(https://github.com/decred/dcrd/blob/master/chaincfg/premine.go#L184) add to 840,000 coins. Those seem to be dev's part of airdrop. Monitor those addresses if you want to see what devs are doing with their airdrop.

I agree with most of that and that is why i wrote that post long ago. Although i think lots of hashrate at launch is a good thing, its just that everyone crashed on one pool(suprnova) rather than being wise & distributing the hashrate.

Will do. But first i want my aidrop coin directly from dev's pre-mine since i have a confirmation link.
If they removed me only cause same ip, it was better to scam them using tor?

[smic]

Mining is not profitable. High difficulty low value.
Airdrop is to high per coin value...
When people sell your coins decred drop dramatically.
