An excellent blog post by company0, the corporation behind decred.  It goes to great lengths on what Decred is and how it works.

Is there only 3.5 millions DCR in circulation right now ?!

[Jack Liver]

yep but 1,5 Mio are busy in the POS Pool voting and 230k are in the development fund.

Exciting news, really looking forward to it.

The Proof of Stake process actually locks coins for a short period of time, so around 33% of the available supply is actually off market.

Decred is a competitor of Eth or Btc? On it smart contracts will be realized?

[Praxis]

Yes, smart contracts implementation is being developed.

[dbt1033]

As a Decentralized Autonomous Organization... Decred is kind of in a class of its own.

This sounds promising except theres no support to deal with another 67% of supply. It can go down with the help of a fart, similar to how u trigger avalanche by an accident belch or a cellphone sound ringtone.

That supply doesn't just hit the market immediately.  And a lot of it is reinvested in to staking.

PoW miners only get 16 coins every 5 minutes.

Unless most of it belongs to one whale who's been accumulating since the beginning and will start dumping when the price peaks (i.e. when there're no more sellers and only buyers).

The whales are staking.  Coins locked.  You should be staking too

[Praxis]

What's with all the paranoid ideas? No, there's not just 1 whale accumulating who will sell everything at once and no, the 67% of remaining coins are not an issue.
You could say these things for any other altcoin ... hell, you could say the same for Bitcoin. What if Satoshi starts selling his stash?
You can keep saying "what if, what if, what if" and keep scaring away from all investments, you'll miss another train.
The point is to think in probabilities not in "what ifs". Everything is possible, but is it probable? that's the question.
I think it's far more likely that there's no single whale and that people won't start selling all simultaneously for some magical reason.
Instead they will keep staking and holding, most of them, like we are doing now and plan to do for the foreseeable future.

Exactly, that's how all crypto markets work. And this is good because there'd be no price action otherwise. It can scare only someone who gets this wrong. Decred hasn't had its bubble yet.

I've been in Slack for about six months now; I never really go there due to the lack of community participation, but holy geez has the Slacktivity increased exponentially!!  To me, this is equally exciting as the bump in price, as every great coin seems to have equally strong participation on this forum and in Slack.

It's time for the DCR OG's (myself not included) to make some new channels and really keep this community fire burning!!
