Jfc Bitcoin is murdering Decred price on the ratio. Coinbase, market maker, somebody do something. 

fuck coinbase they have been officially removed from satoshis "trusted" list...   figures these assholes love to dox people.

What do you think can be done to change that?
Remember that there is the Politeia for work and services proposals to be put on vote.
We currently have a PR company contracted through a voting in the politeia and the hiring of market makers services is under study.
Do you know a good mm?
This is one of Decred's main differentials, the community has money to hire services and decides what to do to improve the currency.

This, along with the modest recent gains the last few days, are the only times I ever see dcr mentioned by mainstream crypto influencers.
Sad really

Haha OK!

Although, I don't know if I'm too happy in the addition of Decred in Coinbase. It would add in its legitimacy as a cryptocurrency if it's accepted in Bitstamp in my opinion.

Please stop answering the trolls.
The good news hide behind these discussions that lead to nothing. Let him talk to himself.


Coinbase is exploring the addition of 8 new digital assets.
Decred is one of them!

It's about time for another high-volume exchange. Decred is falling behind the other over-promoted/less-competent altcoins.


Libra is vaporware, how can it be legit?

Libra is hella more legit than Decred !    ~n00bs!

Am I the only one in the forum who believes Libra will never launch? The degree of political push-back it will get will be so big, Facebook will give up.

so says the people who tried to dox me    hmmm

Libra: Friend or Foe? Worst Case Scenario Post-Congressional Hearings

Facebook is in the hot seat this week, as Congress asks burning questions about the company’s Libra “cryptocurrency.” I use quotes, because in the purest sense, a cryptocurrency is decentralized, trustless, and permissionless. Libra is none of these. Instead, Libra is more likely to become a private currency that enables a turnkey totalitarian state with all-encompassing surveillance.

While the Libra Association is purportedly an independent, decentralized entity that governs the project, Libra’s consensus system is so corporate it’s offensive to call it a true cryptocurrency. It’s effectively a meta-corporate entity, with the likes of Visa, Mastercard, PayPal, Uber and Spotify at the helm.

Facebook & a fundamental lack of trust

As far as being “trustless,” why wouldn’t you trust Facebook? The company was recently fined $5 billion for breaching consumer privacy. Now you want to trust them with your personal data AND finances?

The term “permissionless” in the context of blockchains means that no centralized gatekeeper can determine whether or not you can participate in the network. The 27 other founding members of Libra paid a pretty penny to be validator nodes in the network—an initial minimum investment of $10 million worth of Libra Investment Tokens issued by the Association—and had to meet very specific criteria laid out by Facebook. These entities form an elite and centralized group of gatekeepers who will control permission on the Libra network. This is just another central planning committee.

Now Facebook can deplatform you AND your bank account, which is a super powerful tool for whomever is controlling it—whether that is big tech or government, or perhaps both. Considering Facebook’s pattern of selectively deplatforming users on the basis of their political beliefs or similar, tightly integrating a payment system with Facebook’s existing social media platform is an extremely dangerous proposition.

Worst case scenario: big tech and government in cahoots

Corporatism, the control of a state or organization by large interest groups, sounds like an accurate description for Libra and an evolutionary step towards fascism. Libra espouses the very altruistic mission of empowering billions, especially the unbanked, with a simple, global currency and financial infrastructure. I retain a healthy amount of skepticism.

The real question is who’s in the driver’s seat—big tech or government? In this scenario, I see the answer as both. While this looks like a battle between legislators and big tech, the reality is that they could wind-up collaborating to create a competitor to Bitcoin that is government-regulated. I don’t think it’s a coincidence that news outlets are asking whether Bitcoin was created by a serial criminal concurrent with the discussion of Libra.

Libra could serve the surveillance state



The US government would likely see Libra as an opportunity to surveil the public more thoroughly, similar to how WeChat has been operating in China. Libra claims it will keep transactional data separate from social data, but Facebook’s track record and core competency of strip mining users’ privacy makes that claim implausible. This system sets up a total reversal of the essence of blockchain: instead of a new kind of banking that returns the power to the people, Libra sets up the ultimate surveillance state.

The social credit system in China, where every single action you take is tracked by the government and rolled into a social credit score is exactly where Libra is headed. Libra would be one more step on the road to a totalitarian state, one in which the government sees your every move and tracks your every dollar. It’s easy for the government to act like a neutral or even antagonistic party questioning Libra in Senate hearings.

Behind this veil of congressional mistrust of big tech lies enough powerful interest groups and venture capitalists to benefit from a symbiotic relationship, whereby they acquire and monetize data that allows the government insight into every citizen’s lifelog. Furthermore, the possibility of code-based, behind the scenes monitoring via cameras and microphones embedded into every citizen’s hip pocket render the wiretapping and telecom scandals of the past tame in comparison. Ultimately, once the technology is widely adopted, the government stands to reap the benefits.

Is the tar and feathering of Bitcoin and congressional outrage a cover for the Trojan horse public-private conspiracy to install a renewed version of the US Defense Department’s lifelog, an effort canceled in 2004 (the same year Facebook was founded) to build a database tracking a person’s entire existence? Only time will tell.

monero devs ? oh ok man ...you a legendary shill!!    lol

gembitz is our resident troll. Nothing he says is true, literally nothing. Here's a link where he admits he messed up on his own account and missed the airdrop: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.22659558

Decred is 1 of the 2 coins I'm hodling. I keep all of mine staked. It's easy passive income, and no one can take it away from you. Plus, now that Politeia is live, you could use that stake ticket to vote:

"My thesis for Decred isn't so much as a Bitcoin destroyer, but it is something that can destroy Litecoin, XRP, Bitcoin Cash and frankly all the other trash that exists in the top 10 on coinmarketcap. I think Decred is massively fundamentally undervalued..."
Murad Mahmudov at 25 minutes


"I think the Treasury is a very very wise decision to have been implemented for the long term. I think it has a lot of potential, if I am right about my Decred thesis there's going to be a tremendously large sum of money under the guidance of the Decred community..."
