Is there any guide available for noobs on how to interact with this giant ?

This development dispatch covers work completed since the initial Decred commits on February 8th, 2016. Since then, developers have merged 83 pull requests of code into 10 software repositories. During this period, a total of 139 commits occurred in these repositories and represent modifications to the effect of 5,499 lines of code added to and 1,952 lines removed from the codebase. In addition, a native Windows wallet GUI is being ported to Decred. Finally, 5 requests for proposals (RFPs) were opened to involve new developers in Decred's development.

you didn't consider the first 3 days that around 800 people dumped their coins

Here it is:
(hope for mora data in days to go)



Exponential decay of dataset using y0+A*exp(-x/t)

A (amplitude) = 1461
t (e-folding time) = 86
y0 (offset) = 695


Another a little extended:

hi Wolf0, Could I mining DCR with a firegl v8650 GPU card or is it too old one. Thanks in advance.

Not shure about this Cyngus thing, but I catched some at the faucet.

rizzlarola you are pathetic...with your repeated fud trys. You fail at fudding a coin now you are fudding members?

Yes i am posting in many threads that i am interested in never cross mentioned any coins, or are you the one making some extra spam promotion for cyg?

Yes i like decred and supporting it and for god's sake yes sometimes i am posting in other threads too is that prohibited or WTF?

Noah on decred forum said, (forum.decred.org/threads/thoughts-on-other-hybrid-pow-pos-altcoins.1047/)

"Dear Decreders, There is this new coin which is very similar to Decred. It's called Cygnus. Link: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/ann-cygnus-cyg-x11-powpos-consensus-polls-dynamic-development-1374941 "


I looked and the obvious similarities are there.
Airdrops and premine stuff.
And many of the decred fanboys.

zsnorbi ^ (started thread to earn bounties)
badam,
davien,
flomess,
timeline,
edmundduke,

I thought they LIKED decred?
No, not really, just any shitcoin with a free airdrop?

They want to big decred up, they want to sell one day.
Same for cygnus. they now big that up too.
All just shilling.

Same old faces shilling.
Same old shitcoin rehashes.


Gotta say here though, I cant blame people for taking these freebies. 1 and half btc freebie here! ATM, WTF.
I just dont like the pretence that then goes with it. The shilling.


See more decreders airdropping at https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/ann-cygnus-cyg-x11-powpos-consensus-polls-dynamic-development-1374941 soon?
cygnus, the NEW best airdrop coin.

Wow, even a broken clock is right twice a day. This dude actually got something right - if you're good at something, never do it for free.

Dumping like clockwork? Check those numbers better after an initial "dump" period the whole thing slowed down and coins started moving agan when pos started. Knowing the background sometimes are helping more than sewing conspirational theories

It looks natural to think that the airdrop claiming would be like an exponential decay.
First day was the biggest claiming, the, will be less day by day.
I personally think that we will never see the 99% claimed, even I think that (if Decred developers works fine) we will see a long term asymptote in 70-80% aprox.

EDIT: Give me a couple of minutes, im doing a plot.

How comes they are dumping like clockwork? Why is the pool getting jammed in the same instant? What's that remark above hinting at tradebots? Where do I connect these dots with lines?

Thanks for the info, i'm aware, I'll be fixing the estimates asap.

It appear's that the bot's are in full swing on bittrex pushing the price downwards.....

hey supernova, the payout seems wrong based on the estimate, i've 1.4 giga and i'm doing only 1 drecred per day

innovative? ahaha .  i am just a fan of Bitcoin.

Are you jelly your shitcoin of choice isn't getting much publicity due to  genuinely innovative Decred stealing all the spotlight?  

Wow much speculator, much airdrop, bubble price, much holder waiting for dump
