It's a great time to buy Decred (price right on lower trend line).

Let me guess, you're holding the bag because bought @600k and you're trying to drive the price back up so you can dump your coins and get out? lol

Good luck with that...

Let me guess, you're hoping for the price to stay the same or get lower because you want to buy back the coins you sold @600k? 

Talking about the price could be a way to manipulate people and i'm sure many on this forum are just trying to do that but your argument is invalid; attack the theory, not the man.

I'd say studying past trends is about as useful as keeping a log of where the ball fell on the roulette wheel and then making betting decisions based off of it.

There isn't enough liquidity for me to dump my bag (not that I would want to)

My statement was based on market analysis.  If you don't think my analysis is accurate, I would like to hear why (looks like you don't understand TA).

I'd say you probably lose money trading

Do you think it's possible for the PoS ticket to get under ~6 DCR soon? It whould make a huge difference for my newly acquired (supersmall) DCR fund

I really really doubt it.  It's been nearly a month since we saw a ticket price that low. https://dcrstats.com/
Probably a more realistic threshold for you would ~8-10 DCR

Anywhere between 10 to 20 DCR can still be considered a bargain ticket price. 

[myagui]

Someone just bought a few vote tickets with a fee of 15 DCR, likely someone doing manual transactions.
If the person keeps it up, will end up with very little coins, very quick...

[decred]

This development dispatch covers work completed since the Decred v0.0.8 release from March 18th, 2016. Since then, developers have merged 21 pull requests of code into 3 software repositories. During this period, a total of 25 commits occurred in these repositories and represent modifications to the effect of 8,622 lines of code added to and 13,221 lines removed from the codebase.

A new request for proposal (RFP) has been opened to establish and operate additional stake pools in a number of geolocations. Several parties have stepped forward, and the project is working with them to set up the new infrastructure. Design deliverables for RFP-1 are nearing completion, the first component of RFP-4 is complete and will be integrated into a documentation system in the future, and a number of milestones are being completed and put into Decred repositories for RFP-5. Work continues on RFP-1 through 6. Finally, Paymetheus, the Windows wallet GUI for Decred has been made available as a testnet pre-release prior to the completion of RFP-1's improvements.

Binaries: https://github.com/decred/decred-release/releases/tag/v0.0.9

dcrd

dcrwallet

• Corrected and simplified shutdown logic for interrupts (127-2b79aad)
  
• Disallowed naming accounts with an empty name. Any accounts in the database that are already named the empty string are left untouched and should be renamed to something meaningful by the user (127-9fe02c4)
  
• Made wallet manage wallet database namespaces from the wallet package (127-fcccae3)
  
• Prevented a race when setting a new relay fee through the legacy RPC server (127-d09c2a8, 127-d09c2a8, 127-5d6392b)
  
• Refactored wallet transaction creation code (127-f084802)

Fee estimation constants and test vectors have also been updated for Decred's transaction sizes (127-2133b7b)
  
• Added a new wtxmgr API for resumable, incremental input selection that is performed under a single database transaction, and hooks up the API for transaction creation in the wallet package (130-b0aff95)
  
• Fixed updating the UTXO set for imported addresses to always update spending data even if the transaction already exists (133-a488b38)
  
• Refactored address pool code to scale to more accounts than the default account, updated address pools to be generalized so that in the future they can be multi-account, and greatly simplified logic for the address pool. Accounts are automatically resynced when the wallet is restored from seed (134-4b64adf)
  
• Removed voting pool package as it is currently unused in Decred (135-d98dc43)
  
• Ensured resync has been completed before launching notification handling so that wallet would not drop or mishandle notifications that came in synchronously when wallet resynced (136-6bf720c)

hardly seems like a fair competition... smaller miners that don't find blocks all the time compared to large farms get screwed out of the draw....

the more people buy tickets the more expensive will get, it's pretty much like the pow mechanics and its difficulty, more people in play, more diff , which is equal to more cost to spend, now the average is 13, before was 10, so there are 33% more ticket that are bough

I have posted a pull request to official ccminer with a ~10% speedup.
Same on tpruvot fork.

Have fun and if you have a couple dimes to donate, the address is in my signature ;-)

You have uploaded the wrong .asc for 0.0.9

manifest-20160304-01.txt.asc
instead of
manifest-201600401-01.txt.asc

On 0.0.8 I used "listaccounts" to see my overall balance (bought tickets included) but it now shows the same amount as "getbalance default" in 0.0.9 (the available balance without the bought tickets).
Is there another way to show my whole balance?

Does this work? I got it from http://decreddiscovery.blogspot.gr/

How to check your balance:

    dcrctl -u [walletuser] -P [walletpass] --wallet getbalance * 0 all

    (this will show the total amount of coins that you own)

    dcrctl -u [walletuser] -P [walletpass] --wallet getbalance * 0 locked

    (this will show the amount of DCR that is locked, in PoS tickets or in transactions)

    dcrctl -u [walletuser] -P [walletpass] --wallet getbalance * 0 spendable

     (this will show the total amount of DCR that you can spend freely)
