I don't see my country

That means you have got a job to do. This was just one phase of the project. Now things start firing up.

The airdrop initiative has been finalised, and the project is now in a position to present a general overview of what has transpired and provide more information about the network distribution when mainnet is launched in the future.

Looks off to a great start guys. Let's get that testnet rocking!  

I don't see my country

Probably just not enough % to warrant making the list.
What country out of curiosity? (if you're ok disclosing, that is)

Please remove this user (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=233575) from  AIRDROP database. He ammitted that he has exploited the airdrop with multi account.

Also please report him.

leggendo il thread ufficiale sembra che abbiano adottato delle misure riguardo agli indirizzi IP e i timestamps comunque a loro detta riguardo al fatto che  i sottoscrittori ne riceveranno "né pochi né troppi" mi fa ipotizzare ad occhio guardando forum, reddit e social network vari che forse non si sia arrivati a 2000 il che vuol dire più decred per noi 

quindi chi ha usato lo stesso IP non riceverà nemmeno la richiesta di confermare o non riceverà le coin?

Ma perchè era possibile richiederli in altro modo, oltre a dargli il link dell'account del forum ? Bastava anche un semplice account facebook o twitter? Splatters cmq bastava usare tor per registrarsi 

io ne ho prese alcune col forum loro e altre dal form

They talking in italian on how they exploited the airdrop.Splatters has used BTCTALK multiaccount and decred forum multiaccount.

The other user suggest Splatters to use TOR but he didn't ammit the SCAM, only Splatters does.

Please investigate and BAN before the genesis launch.

Is anyone gonna listen to this guy ?

[anders lokka]

Next steps will be release of testnet to check miners setting?

The response is here:

However, in response to community concern, and as a show of good faith, the project has decided to conduct another (and final) sweep of the database to check its integrity and remove problematic entrants that are identified as fraudulent. The outcome of this may result in each successful participant receiving slightly more coins than stated - but no less than 258.93958076.

• United States - 27.0
• United Kingdom - 7.0
• Brazil - 5.7
• Germany - 5.3
• Russia  - 4.4
• Netherlands - 4.0
• France - 4.0
• Canada - 3.8
• Italy - 2.9
• Ukraine - 2.4
• Australia - 2.3
• Estonia - 2.1
• India - 1.8
• Switzerland - 1.6
• Japan - 1.5

Never thought that there are so many users from th USA. I though China and russia will be at the first place

[tkon3]

27% USA looks pretty huge.

In total, 3,244 participants have successfully completed the airdrop confirmation process through the submission of a Decred address. The airdrop opened with the public announcement of Decred on December 15th, 2015 and closed on January 18th, 2016. The airdrop sign up was open for 34 days and participants joined the project from 99 different countries.

I'm thrilled.  99 countries out of 196 total count for our entire planet means already more than 50% of countries.

[Videodrome]

Sorry guys i'm from italian community and i read all the decred italian topic.

There is a misunderstanding on Splatters words. He is not a scammer, he have just used wrong and synthetic words in very bad italian.(like my bad english)

Thanks

IMO these "security checks" raises the thrust of the community in Decred pretty much

Yeah and first of all, we get rid of sockpuppets. They would just dump their coins at the first chance for some pennies. Filtering sockpuppets also influences the whole ecosystem of a coin

[bubilas]

Congratulation ALL! It's good job by developers. Thanks.

[Hyperjacked]

What bothers me,

c0's % of the premine should be priced at $1.00 per decred. The price "at which this project may be able to sustain itself at 10% subsidy"

(Beyondtext said "If we assume the value of 1 decred averages to USD 1.00 over the first year, this means we'll have USD 302K to spend on development work.  This is a small amount of funding and can pay for 3-4 full time developers for 1 year, so if we went below 10% dev subsidy it would mean the project cannot fund itself unless its exchange rate is well over USD 1.00 per decred")

But then c0's guaranteed 400,000 decred PoS awards in year 1 MUST also be considered in the "compensation package".
This 400,000 "free and guaranteed" PoS is more than the dev fund receives in year 1, yet is totally unaccounted for in the c0 "compensation package"

c0 "imply" they are not seeking profit here. They just say they want "compensation for bring up costs" = $420,000. ok fair enough.
But, c0's "compensation package" is structured to produce 3x that figure = "compensation for bring up cost + 200% profit"
(100% profit at launch + 100% profit in yr 1. based on decred price "at which this project may be able to sustain itself at 10% subsidy")

So, a fairer "compensation package for bring up costs" would be something like,
TOTAL received by c0 at end year1 (premine + PoS) = 420,000 decred.
(ALL the premine/distribution/PoS figures would need changing)

Just let Decreds concensus process take care of new ideas and changes, it's not Bitcoin where PoW miners can easily block a consensus change.

This is Decred where consensus is mutilated and deliberately violated, where significant 34% minorities are being pressured and forced into major changes to consensus rules. Like it or lump it... This is a joke!

You know whats a joke? Less than 1% of the bitcoin community deciding everything and 99% are being forced to major changes to concensus rules, like it or lump it... this is what u call a joke.

You couldn't say it better. I don't know why people start to complain about this consensus stuff. This is a privilege. Very few coins offered you something like this.

Actually no coins offer what this coin offers! No doubt that has grabbed some attention in the community...

someday we will write books about this...but for now

Prepare for more paid shills...

The best way to work against sockpuppets left after dev's checks is to set some low orders for there dumps to become your buys. That way those who missed the airdrop will get cheap coins & coins will be in hands of someone who wants to help in voting & staking & also well divesrsified. I am sure no cheaters got enough coins to affect decentralization/voting so dumping their coins is best way for them to make profit.

I agree.  Also, based on the number of total submissions versus the final number of accepted particpants that also submitted an address (8,793 total, 3,244 successful participants -- in other words ~64% rejected), I don't imagine all that many scammers made it through anyways.

Certainly there will be some since no process is perfect, but it is highly unlikely to be as bad as some of the trolls (who are, frankly, probably most likely lying anyways given they never followed up when specifically engaged about the supposed duplicates that made it through by _ingsoc) on this thread would like to lead people to believe.

[pinkie31]

Wish I'd found decred earlier    hoping to still be able to afford coins or at least mine before farms take over.

[Richard1972x]

Me as well. Probably I will buy some at the exchanges when they are out.

I really like the concept and the participation rate at the Airdrop was quite huge.

Good luck!

If you are lucky maybe you will have an hour before farms Just invest 1 bitcoin, i think you wont loose your money Thats what im planing to do

are u joking? so mining is pointless? an hour only, wtf

[freemind1]

I doubt you have one hour. If you visit the Decred forum you can see the number of users with ready rigs for mining and users with BTC prepared to buy.
