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

[Ayers]

So long as price is above 250k sat I see no reason to worry

lol i remember they were saying the same thing when the price was hanging between 400sat and 600, and look now 250k, the reality is that there is nos afe level with altcoin, they can all die in minute, remember dark coin? lol

I saw people mentioned 8% per month. The price seems stable around 1.5 USD / DCR, so it may not  be a bad investment.

no lol it's 3.7% right now, for example if you invest 1 btc you only get 0.037 each month

every month i write down the amount of decred staked, last month my gain was 6,5% this month it's going to be more than 7,5% obviously if you buy tickets at 60 DCR your chance of winning diminish, it's a lottery system more ticket you buy higher are your chance.

Is anyone PoS mining with the Raspberry Pi ? Is it viable ?

[Jack Liver]

i've used a banana pi dual core months ago with official client for ARM and have been missed some ticket on really heavy blocks during tx elaboration, but rpi 3 are quad core and many improvements in speed were made since then, next release 0.5.0 with ffldb database will be even more faster.

Thank you.
I'm gonna order a quadcore rpi3 and try with the 0.5.0 then, and report performance.
Do we have an ETA on 0.5.0 btw?

I think the team should consider putting more effots with regard to spread the word, about the funcionalities and advantages of using Decred.

Do we have an ETA on 0.5.0 btw?

Probably at the end of the month.

Why the team and not you & I? We don't have to wait for others to do it. You can speak freely on the Internet and help spread the world. What prevents you?

I'd say so as well, devs deliver new releases quite often. Great job !

Is there a windows wallet where I can stake without messing around with command lines? I'm too lazy for that.
I have around 4k DCR on polo that are still waiting for a pump. 
If there is an easy way to stake I would try it. Taking profit later at half price sounds interesting hehe

It is surprisingly easy once you read through some documents.

I have good old Acer-Extensa 5220 with Intel single-core 1.7 Ghz cpu and 2GB Ram as stake-machine. Only improvement is SSD-hard-drive with Ubuntu-linux. Only missed votes were during maintenance breaks.

You won't be waiting too much longer.  Look at the compression on the bands...  Remember remember, the month of September

I still remember some whale accumulating $100,000 worth of DCR on bittrex before it was even added to Polo.  Glad to have my ticket for this train.
