I could argue that Decred is one of the best forks of Bitcoin, mainly due to its unique consensus voting mechanism. It has other cool feats, like the cross-platform wallet and smart contracts, but the consensus vote is still the biggest deal. What's interesting about DCR is that it managed to reach its all-time high of January 2018 for the second time in May 2018, when all other altcoins had been at their very bottom. With an ROI of 1,665.81%, Decred still has plenty of upside potential.

DCR has lasted this long because it puts its sole focus on the community that it created. This was already a winning move because projects can’t exist without the backing of a community. There’s no greater folly then not paying attention to the needs of your customer/followers, so it’s a genius move by the devs over at DCR. Many other projects lack the foresight to implement truly democratic protocols into their blockchains, but DCR has already done this with great success.

Decred has been in the market for so long, but I think this lends them a lot of experience over other new projects in the space. DCR is constantly making genuine updates that benefit the community, not just the price of their coin. Most projects nowadays only cater to pump kids that want their new coin to do a 2x in a span of 24 hours. It’s time we see more projects like DCR that put real innovation of price speculation. Also, DCR is looking very healthy on the 1-week chart, as they’ve been holding steady for a significant amount of time. Some patience will surely pay off if you’re still hanging onto DCR.

Currently, Decred is holding a big voting process for their new governance rules. This is going to affect a lot regarding how we (as users) interact with the Decred blockchain. I really think this will translate in a rise in price as the community votes for issues that are positive price movers. If you're in the Decred community don't forget to vote!

I'm really interested in this project. Can anyone help me understand it better? I understand it's an autonomous digital currency, but what does it actually do? Has anyone here used it to buy anything yet?

Also interested in the project. It seems to me quite original, distinguished so to speak, among others. So far it seems that this is one of those coins that can exactly compete for the first place laurels in the future. Although a number of points alarming me, for example, 10% of deductions to developers. Availability at the start only online wallet, as I understand it. That is, all the coins will be under control, maybe it's good if we are sure of the developer's intentions (righteousness), and maybe even bad, because all power is in one hand. Let's see, while the information is not so much and not everything is disclosed.
