i've signed up for the airdrop on the website few weeks ago but never got any confirmation mail, would be nice to get one...

Airdrop confirmation e-mails will be going out today and continue being sent into early next week. The airdrop form confirms your entry when you submit. Didn't want to spam people's inboxes with mail given that there would be a confirmation e-mail with instructions on how to generate your address.

Looks like an interesting project. Signed up for the airdrop.

Me too! Haven't been this excited about a new coin since Monero.

Can't wait to participate in the distributed governance. Could be big fun, as drama is practically guaranteed! Cool

Hello, for AMD GPU r7 290 we have a miner for black256 14 round? How i can test it whit Decred? Thanks

Hi,

yes miner is available, its cgminer 3.7.2 for saffroncoin (blake256-14rounds). Link for test pool and blake cgminer is here: http://www.miners-pool.eu/#!/pools

estimated hashrate is:

R9 270 0,86GH/s
R9 290 1,70GH/s

test it and post here...

Thanks ... Today i test it and post here results :-) Thanks

Now i testing.... whit my R9 270 i have near 0,87GH/s ... in same moment i go at near 1 GH/s.. i can confirm this value... but this is good for mining DECRED?

That sounds reasonable for a 270.

Now try underclocking your gpumem by 200 mhz or more... I bet you get almost identical hash with less heat / power draw.

I owe my soul to the Bitcoin code...

It is nice to hear that this project is not to be rushed forward for a quick reward. I have high expectations for all involved.

Just to let everyone know, airdrop invitation e-mails will start going out January 8th, 2016. They'll continue being sent out over the weekend and early next week. Airdrop applications will continue being accepted until January 18th, 2016, and invitation e-mails will continue until prior to mainnet launch. The project has been swamped with interest and every application gets individual attention, so there will be more information about mainnet launch as well. The current anticipation is a delay of one week, which is unfortunate, but it's important to give all the applications proper attention and not leave people behind.

There are some really talented people who have signed up to join the Decred network and community. It's humbling to think there are so many high calibre individuals who want to explore technology together to build on what Decred is putting forward. You're thanked from the bottom of the hearts of those who have built it up to this point, and it's going to be an honour to work together and see where the wind in our sails takes us.

Great. Do it right, don't rush, better to do everything efficiently, even with the delay. New year and Christmas, it's distracting, but nothing bad. In the hope that the coin will move BTC ))

Thank you for the update! Its nice to hear that a lot of skilled people are joining, it will help to push the project even further if great minds work together. So 18th is the last day for joining ? Or should all be done by then as its the airdrop date (unless it gets extended if too many join)

I ran sp-mod 78 on above pool & i got results.

gtx970: 1.42-1.45 GH/s @ 150-160 W

gtx750ti: 522 MH/s @ 50 W

Consider these to be conservative estimates as ambient temps here are in high 20C to low 30C. It seems results are very competitive for both AMD & nvidia. If anyone can post power draw for AMD cards it will become more clear.

I want to clarify: the time between blocks of 5 minutes, the average block size in the first year, 25-23 coins?, about 105K units a year? This is the right calculations, I assumed that in the first year will produce around 4.7 million coins. That is, the financing of the project will be transferred to 470 thousand coins in the first year? (10%). Just want to understand everything before starting. It's very much like a full line of numbers bitcoin. Okay, the calculation roughly correct? Just earlier I was thinking that the blocks in the first year will be about 9-10 coins.

If you have a look at our previous post about the subsidy system

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.13412287

you can see how this works out in detail. For clarity, I'm reproducing the figures here:

The per block subsidy starts at approximately 31.19 coins and decreases by a factor of 100/101 every 6,144 blocks, approximately 21.33 days assuming 5 minutes per block.
The total number of coins by the end of year 1 is approximately 4.7M, with 1.68M coming from the premine and 3.02M coming from PoW, PoS and dev org subsidies.
The dev org will get approximately 302K coins over the first year, most of which will be spent on an ongoing basis on development of the software.

So we're looking at 15% decrease in inflation per year.

And 50% every 4 years. So I guess its modeled to be similar to Bitcoin.

This means that eventually block subsidy will approach zero. There will still be security from PoS but they'll still rely on transaction fees.

It's interesting that unlike a regular PoS coin, the interest isn't indefinite.

For the benefit of visual learners, it would be nice to have all this info put into a graph or two.

Does total emission depend on how many coins are being staked, or is there a fixed amount of PoS reward divided pro rata?

I can easily understand you, @Blizzy, as this btcTalk forum is the home of the trolls (retarded kids). The worst place on the Internet, actually... I hardly ever feel like posting here... only if there's a really good reason.

I hope Decred succeeds and the community will have another forum, far away from this btcTalk.

I think we've all felt like this at one point or another. You can sign up at the Decred forum if that looks more appealing. The key is to remember if there's constructive discourse happening somewhere, it will be addressed and included, no matter where it occurs.

Thank you, I wish you success! Do your best!
