I spent all day on testnet, make a personal step by step to get ready and fast at mainnet launch to create wallet,invested in rig, to solo mine on first minutes without pool like ETEHEREUM, an now everything will be ready 24 hours before? So, who bought gpu only for solo mine decred at launch for some minutes are completely cutted off, since all you can do is rent rig or mine at pool.

Now, solo mining chance for those ones who own private home rig or have bought rig only for decred are near to 0% to since launch rules have changed.

A normal launch was better, cause only real interested people got chance to mine for first (those ones who have studied testnet,setted up optimal cgminer settings,etc etc).
Now everyone got 24 hours time to slowly set-up everything. Than just push ONE button and strat to mine.


However, good luck. I'm waiting for release.

It was much better a regular launch instead of a "planned 24 hours launch".

Thank you for being candid and honest about how you feel. The first part of the issue is more about consistent returns. Solo mining is very binary - you either get nothing or a lot. In a pool, you get a little bit for every block the pool finds. Typically and over time, this increases your earnings as a miner. This is also proportional to the hash power you provide to the pool. The second part of the issue is that once the network hash power is sufficiently higher than your available hash power, the chances of you solo finding a block effectively go to 0. So getting a small piece of every block the pool finds is better than 0 - given that it's proportional to your hash power.

Thanks for your answers.
Decred team and dev are doing a great work.

Oh my pool is ready already Smiley I was hoping for a regular launch as I think this is much more fair than a "planned launch" with everything ready 'off shelve' ...This makes it rather mainstream IMHO..

If you want, you can send me the details and I'll list the pool for you when it's ready on a date closer to mainnet launch (or when you want me to).

Hey everyone, mainnet launch date is 12:00 PM CST February 8th, 2016. Some extra information here. This will mean extra work completed on PoW pools and a simple PoS pool on launch. Hopefully now everyone can make their arrangements for the big day!

Awww what a pity... And I wanted to ninja launch a pool right after launch.. Sad

I am gona solo mine until your pool launches...then you get all my hash from Eth (on your pool) switching to your Decred Pool.  So i guess thats neutral from your standpoint.

Sounds like tesnet has been a success so far which is good to here...

@_ingsoc Just popping your full post from the decred forum here as well...Guessing not everyone will click to read it over there.

Hello everyone,

Just a quick update to solidify a specific date and time for mainnet launch now that testnet has been live for a while. The original plan was to bring mainnet up on February 3rd, 2016, in the event that no serious bugs were discovered during the week of testnet. However, operation of testnet and feedback from users have made it clear that the network will benefit greatly from two distinct factors that require completion or work prior to the launch of mainnet. These are:
PoW pools - the project is currently assisting developers who are working on pools for PoW mining
PoS pools - the project will complete and release a basic stake pool for those interested in PoS mining
As such, the specific date and time scheduled for mainnet launch is 12:00 PM CST February 8th, 2016. The software will be made free and open-source at 12:00 PM CST February 7th, 2016 - one full day prior to the launch of mainnet. Hopefully progress on these factors will afford everyone a little bit more time to become familiar with the software and make arrangements for the launch day!

As always, thank you to everyone for their hard work and effort in helping others along the way!

Sincerely,
Decred Project

Good to hear that the binaries will be made available the day before @12:00 PM CST February 7th, 2016 as well... Saves me waking up @4am my time to get everything sorted.

Oh, thanks for bringing these very important issues to light rizz, you bastard.

Thats quite alright anonymous _ingsoc, no problem.
Don't bother thanking me, or even acknowledging me.
Oh, you didn't.

So i'm on many ignore lists here, idiots.
See what can be acheived?
If only you ignorers knew how much PoS I just rightfully earned for you.

More to come.

One of the very few exciting crypto currencies out there. Decred is both exciting an innovative with features never before seen on an alt coin. My favorite thing about it is its governance feature. Can't wait for the release of the mainnet. Smiley

had it, lost it, got it, read it, been here, been there ive got got loads of addresses, seeds, i have them too (bugger knows how i will ever get to my airdrop) now all gone tits up, ive wasted too much of my precious time,  i give up.

If you're having trouble, don't be disheartened. You will be able to claim your airdrop using the web wallet without hassle. You can rest easy.

@jambo10 I haven't tried yet but I expect to replicate your experience Grin

@_ingsoc I want more than a web wallet,I want to stake
Giving myself a 24 hour break, things have been moving and shaking this week . Grin
i will up date, as i have a rack to do.  
A weekend task.
OK, Good news, All set up and mining, Was a combination of usernames passwords wallet names passwords all that sort of stuff,  anyway not found any block yet (fingers crossed), but will post my quick notes for win10/Amd users/miners later on after a break. thats if you want me to.

A big help was by starting over and by deleting my testnet wallet found in appdata\local\dcrwallet\testnet.
