1/ Given the recent price action, there's probably a lot of newcomers looking to get up to speed with @decredproject

No fear, we've put together a brief tweet thread with the best community resources that will help you understand the ins and outs of $DCR 👇
2/ To start, check out the Decred Canon that @max_bronstein and @sidrmsh put together.

It breaks down the best online resources into categories that are easy to browse.

3/ A good first piece is the investment thesis that @placeholdervc put together.

It does an amazing job of summarizing $DCR's core value propositions in a way that's digestible.

4/ To understand the motivations that directed the creation of the project, read the hallmark piece written by Company 0 CEO @behindtext

It dives into a number of potential pitfalls of BTC development.

5/ Next, read the follow-up post that introduces a new design for a cryptocurrency with a hybrid PoW/PoS consensus system.

This was the first time Decred's scope was released to the public.

6/ For a full outline of Decred's initial technical spec, Company 0 lays out all of that information when $DCR was formally announced.

7/ A year into the network being live, @ljxie wrote an excellent beginner post titled "A beginner's guide to Decred"

8/ As network security is one of Decred's core tenets, a must-read piece is @generalsaccount's "Decred's hybrid protocol, a superior deterrent to majority attacks"

9/ Another less-discussed aspect of Decred is it's network treasury. Control over the network treasury was handed over to the stakeholders in late 2018, @coindesk reported on it here.

10/ Lastly, @_Checkmatey_ has done a lot of work on modeling $DCR's scarcity. His latest piece explores why $DCR looks a lot similar to $BTC in the early days
