Decred (DCR) is a blockchain-based platform with a primary focus on community input and open governance. The platform welcomes everyone to participate, join project groups and contribute to development. As per the whitepaper, the platform operates with the hybrid Proof-of-Work (PoW) and Proof-of-Stake (PoS) mining process. The hybrid model ensures that a small group does not overpower the flow of transactions or modify Decred without the community's inputs. The protocol aims to facilitate sustainable funding for the development of the cryptocurrency.

Further, DCR is the native utility token of the Decred platform. Decred holders can stake DCR to obtain voting tickets to vote on on-chain decisions. Also, 30% of the block reward goes to holders of the tickets who vote in one particular block. DCR token holders get an opportunity to choose a project by randomly sealing their coins in exchange for tickets in order to gain staking rewards.
