I'm sorry but I don't have thoughts on decred I have not looked at it. However 2 people i trust the opinions of said it is one of the better dev teams.
I wonder just how good "one of the better dev teams" they mean, is it top 3? top 20?
Of course it wouldn't have the best dev team, we both know Dash has the best dev team of any crypto.
Anyway, thanks for the reply.
Top 3 dev teams IMO goes like this:
Bitcoin
Ethereum
Decred
The PIVX dev team has a lot to prove, and I don't get why this copy and paste coin (as far as Dash tech is concerned) or vaporware (as far as Zerocoin tech is concerned) is getting pumped higher than coins that have copied Dash with a fair distribution before (too many to list), have zerocoin technology implemented (like Zcoin), or Zcash technology (like Zcash or Zclassic). Actually, I get why... someone(s) pumping it. You've seen the newbie account hype machine on the forums lately, and obviously someone has been buying it up on the markets. It is no coincidence. I will sit on the sidelines and wait for the dump. Maybe, just maybe... after the dump, if they show progress in development, then it could turn into a decent coin that I will buy, but until then it is a highly orchestrated pump and dump.
