alternatively if you hate reddit and you have any questions you can post them here and I can try to give you my own opinion, for what it's worth
Also yes this is a decred shill thread, but I don't care because it's freaking worth to shill decred.
It should at least have the same valuation as XMR imo.
I don't trust that coin.
Convince me otherwise op. What makes it so great? What about that shady airdrop?
How long did it take to get the taste of charlie lees cock out of your mouth? He was in there deep
Bump for Decred

You don't have to trust it idiot, it's the most decentralised coin out there.

If you have questions about the integrity of the project or the developers I suggest that you go through this thread:

Decred has literally one of the most credible developer teams in the crypto space working on it. They created the first alternative implementation of btcd called btcsuite which is used by projects like Ethereum, Factom, Lightning Network etc...
They created Decred because they found that it was impossible to work with bitcoin core as long as you weren't part of the in-group and had views that strayed away from the group-think. The decred team basically got derided for years by bitcoin core for making an alternative implementation. So they saw the bitcoin governance issues before everyone else basically and decided to fix the issues they saw by starting their Decred.

In the airdrop ~282 DCR were distributed to 3000 participants who were vetted etc. Also the airdrop was simply necessary to kickstart the PoS or something like that. In any case there was some technical reason behind it which I don't remember quite accurately.
In either case, what makes decred great is that it solves the governance issue.
Hybrid PoS/PoW (taking the best aspects of both systems), hard fork voting on mainnet (which no other crypto has), proposal system and decentralization of the development subsidy are going to make Decred the first truly decentralized autonomous organization imo.
Also lightning network integration is coming. And the developers are paranoid about privacy. They are going to go with a new privacy implementation that has not been seen before in cryptos.I would actually dare say that I trust the decred devs to develop DCR into a more private coin than Monero.
I recommend to check out the roadmap on the official blog if you want to read up on the plans.
Bump for visibility
nobody cares about this trash coin.

Why? I genuinely want to know so I can put my time elsewhere if you have convincing arguments
