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

[hacksmash]

Decred stays strong in stormy weather. Good project!

Agreed, we simply shrugged off the entire btc slump & slide or recent weeks. I love the upward trajectory over the last month and a half. And as I post, blockfolio just notified me that we passed the 0.01 btc mark ... WHOOOHOO

This is a winner folx. Hold on for the long ride.

Looking at tradingview I dont see it crossing the 0.01 mark bittrex or polo.

I think decred is a great project and I supported it the moment I learned about it recommended it to everyone who wanted to step into crypto. The only thing with decred is the trading volume. Its so low an average. Also with no possibilities to open new accounts on bittrex decred has little options for new audience. Holding a large position in decred is a big risk now that bitcoin and the whole market is looking weak. There is just no way to sell you coins if you want to. Fundamentals, devs, vision etc are most important but without good liquidity people with more to spend will never feel comfortable holding this coin since they cant get out if they want to. Not here to hate on DCR its one of my biggest bags but I do think this is a growing problem considering we have one of the lowest volumes of the top 200 especially top 100. This Should not be the case if you look at our ranking and fundamentals of decred and im hoping the liquidity issue is being thought of in the future.

Where can I see the road map for 2018? The site is available only for 2017 I saw in third-party sources that in February and March will appear, is this correct information? Thanks in advance for the answer

Yes, I read they will publish it a few months into 2018. They've done everything so far with such professionalism and direction that I am not to concerned. I know how hard they are working and how mind blowing smart they are.

I think it's just amazing that someone is creating a crypto-currency that EVERYONE has a say and vote that matter's for the future of the project. It give's power to the people

Not quite everyone, only people that actually hold DCR.

When you consider btc, there are 'voices' in their conversations that have no personal stake (ie coin holdings). That is a part of what drew me to DCR...in essense... coins = votes. No bad actor influence, no miners vs holders, no users vs devs. All holders are equal (on a per coin basis).

[Wind_FURY]

Was there a discussion about some Decred developers supporting the creation of Asic miners for DCR a few months ago? I believe it might go back and bite them gathering from what I am seeing in Siacoin.

Bitmain is already trying to force its way into Siacoin mining to the detriment of their project, and its community.

This is actually for everyone here, this is an interview with GOD Marco Peereboom (lol) and Decred Jesus at TNABC (2018). They explain why they didn't release the roadmap yet, plus Marco explain why 2018 is gonna be the year of governance the year of Decred.

Everyone that got a little time to spend, please have a look and know where you're putting your money (good hands lol).

After seeing the video I feel like I should double my Decred position, they are such a solid non-greedy team with lots of integrity.

Decred is a sleeping giant, has been since the start. I like the underground vibe of it, you don't hear a lot of people about it actually...

Speaking from my soul! Liquidity might be a small problem right now, but Decred has just so much promise. So so much!

What do you guys think of buying DECRED now, is the price too high, should I wait for a bigger dip? Since it has been going down a lot

[sompitonov]

Hi!

My deposit of 82 Decred to Poloniex was not credited in over 48 hours, and no reply to my support ticket.
Anybody else here having the same problem?

on POLO you can observe it:
"DCR is currently under maintenance or experiencing wallet/network issues. Deposits and withdrawals will remain disabled until a solution is found, which may require an update from the DCR team. Any updates must be tested and audited before enabling."
I would postpone deposits for stock exchanges for later

Decred is still just a baby, with most of its growth ahead of it.  Downside risk is much less than other blue chip coins given its relatively low market cap, and upside is proportionately higher, so there is the asymmetric investment appeal that has been proven to work in the cases of Monero, Litecoin, and Ethereum Classic.

Decred still has its biggest exchange listings in the future.  Its governance system is still being fleshed out, but the process may bear fruit Soon(tm).

Decred's forthcoming bleeding-edge privacy overlay may be a game-changer given the high level of its developers' competence and tech savvy (Decred shares DNA with XMR and btcsuite).

Staking coins may enjoy their 15 minutes of fame when people realize the Masternode model is broken, failing, and simply paints a regulatory/kidnapping target on operators' backs.

When Dash, PIVX, and the other Masternode coins get busted by the SEC and local equivalents thereof, people may wake up and realize it is silly and counterproductive to pay operators who are too lazy to vote for/against proposals which are mostly failures and scams.

The flood of capital formerly pent up in Masternode coins will naturally seek out and find a place in staking coins, of which Decred and Cardano are the best in class.

Don't invest more than you can afford to lose, but do keep in mind the sooner you start staking the sooner your tickets' ROI starts compounding and the more influence you wield over the project's future.

Does this only affect Poloniex or are all exchanges effected?

The devs have been trying to contact Polo for days to find out what's going on and solve the problem but they don't respond.
It seems they haven't updated the wallet for the last fork

I'm one of those jerks who still hodls his airdrop. A few times lately I thought of selling while a bunch of other alts were mooning and I was feeling jealous. But as bitcoin dropped Decred was like a rock (I mean it did drop, but not like an altcoin, and it has mostly recovered).

It's hard to hold something valuable in these crazy times that doesn't promise the sun and the stars but has a real - hard - roadmap that it is working to achieve.

Decred still believes in the power of the distributed ledger and blockchain technology as Satoshi envisioned it - and i feel like this ideal is dying with so many of the major new projects. Giving power back to the people, the voters, the users and connecting them all is what Decred is about to me.

Doing real work and making real work is hard! Decred can do it!

Current ticket price is ~77 DCR, so you'll need to send more to your wallet. Check here for current price: https://dcrstats.com/

Actually, pretty sure Decredition shows current ticket price as well.
