Well this sure looks interesting. I'll definitely be following this.
I am following and will be interested in mining when it starts.
Thank you for taking the time to read it all! Will an AMD miner be the only option available or will some love be shown to the many Nvidia card miners?
The miner is a fork of an older version of cgminer with a rewritten kernel. It has been built for both AMD and nVidia cards, but it is likely that an optimized miner for nVidia cards will take a little finesse and a fork of ccminer.

Looks neat. Not sure the premine is the best idea, and airdrops have a somewhat notorious history in cryptoland, imo, but with that being said, I'd be happy to participate in this one ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) Those are fair comments. The project struggled with this for a long time... I agree, it's a difficult if not intractable problem. At this point it almost seems better to call it something, anything, besides a premine - Etherium and their ICO or Darkcoin and their instamine, both kind of do linguistic gymnastics just to avoid the use of the 'p-word'. Anyway, I signed up for the airdrop with my bitcointalk account. Not sure if I'll qualify, but I've done some miner and wallet gui wrappers for Myriadcoin and Monero, respectively, using a github account with same nick that I use here. Looking forward to the release and hope everything goes smoothly.

Why do you need a new account just to follow one coin?

This means a lot, thank you. The hope is that we can see Decred grow alongside btcsuite in a symbiotic relationship where improvements on either of those get fed back into the other. btcsuite has proven itself to be a strong project, stronger than ever, and that was part of the motivation to bring that consistent and high-quality development input into an "altcoin" project. We haven't seen that to date, at the very least limited examples compared to the sheer number of projects that don't keep up the dev work. That's part of a bigger problem that needs to be solved to legitimize alternative cryptocurrency systems.

You will definitely qualify. Anyone will who expresses interest and shows some sign of contributory/constructive thought. The project is inclusive, so nobody will sit on a throne and make decisions to exclude people - it's only meant as a rough filter to try and avoid people who have no interest in building it up. It's also unconditional, but that's a risk the community will take collectively - better to give people the benefit of the doubt if they're prepared to give the project consideration!

Thank you for the kind words and stopping by! Please make sure you guys have signed up for the airdrop if you're interested in that! And I hope you don't mind me quoting you to get our post activity up (so the images can show up). ![Tongue](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/tongue.gif)

Hi lin0sspice, if others are curious, you're referring to the qualification to be included in the airdrop. All that means is the project is trying to make sure the coins go to people who are contributors - people who want to participate in the project, and a good way to check for that is to try and allocate it to people who have contributed to other projects in the past, since they're likely to continue doing that in the future. It's a good way to build something from the bottom-up and everyone can participate together. That could mean an account on here where you've been engaged with the issues in cryptocurrency for example. If you don't have anything you think that would satisfy the airdrop qualification, you can get in touch and let the project know what you want to work on in the future and be eligible for it. It's strictly unconditional, since the project won't force people to contribute. I hope that helps, and thank you for giving it consideration! The goal is to spread the network far and wide and help decentralization from day one!
