That's really cool of decred. What's also nice is it's dual mining features as well with coins such as ethereum.

Decreds ability to basically "exchange" a currency would make it quite suitable for miners when coins such as MusicCoin or Zcash appear as great to mine. This makes it a great option when trying to opt-out odd services such as Changelly or ShapeShift.

Just my $0.02.
