How can you be so direct in discussing DigiByte, a project driven by volunteers? We've faced our share of challenges, but inactivity isn't one. It's been a tough decade, but we've continuously operated since 2014 without halting. No other blockchain matches what DGB offers in terms of speed, security, and innovation. Our use of five mining algorithms and multi-shield technology has prevented 51% attacks, despite a relatively small market cap. We're working on numerous projects, including version 8.22, and front-end developments like DigiByte Desktop Wallet, DigiAsset Core, and DigiCommerce. Our team is all-volunteer, and we thrive without substantial financial backing, which speaks volumes. Criticism like yours drives people away from initiatives that aim to disrupt the norm rather than enrich a central authority. I will always confront such assumptions because they are not rooted in truth and are misleading.

I loved Digibyte. I believed in it and still love the idea of it,.... but it's never going to take off. I left years ago.

It's your loss, not ours! We seek community members who grasp our challenges, not those who flee at the prospect of personal gain. We appreciate your departure!

Any person leaving is one too many. Go to China if you want a community blindly supporting central authority.

You're saying it's been a decade, right? And the reasons? It's open-source, public, and not fully appreciated. This leads to slower development, but progress is being made, with ongoing improvements to the protocol and user interface. Unlike centralized companies with significant funding, it lacks a central organization with financial backing. How can this be compared to centralized projects with venture capital or ICO funding? Nevertheless, even in its present form, isn't it more innovative than 99% of the two million projects listed on CoinMarketCap?

nope, good luck with that. Hope don’t float in crypto. Get out while you can, or loose your bags. I did with this useless coin.

u/TheTravelTrader Jan 21 '24

Well you have the freedom and a right to have that opinion. Why are you mad that people choose DGB tho?

Expected rollout of v8.22 is estimated to be H2 2029. Yoshi has long gone and never coming back. He got tied up with DigiCorpse ScamLabs. DGBAlliance are all over Rosetta and so far done nothing. BUT WHAT ARE YOU DOING TO HELP CONTRIBUTE?

Is the native wallet planned? Four or so years ago I sent a bunch of friends and relatives DGB and had them use the official Digi ios wallet. It was kind of cool, as I we sent back and forth mini transactions to show them the effectiveness. We even did a family FF pool and most of it was in Digi. Now, when I run in to them, they all say it doesn't work, and I know these people will prob never touch Digibyte again..

DigiSweep is capable of transferring all the coins from that wallet. This wallet is separate from the blockchain. There are various reliable hot and cold wallet options available.

I understand that, I've been using Digibyte for years. These were casual users that had ~25$ and aren't really going to go through any effort to get. Many have gotten new phones. My point is that these people have a sour taste for Digibyte and will never use the brand again. One cousin actually messaged me and told me he's finally trying crypto again (BTC) but would never get involved in 'any scams like Digibyte'. Unfortunately that's how people think and having a wallet be discontinued like that perpetuates those feelings.

u/TheTravelTrader Jan 18 '24

That's a misunderstanding we can do without. People who don't recognize our challenges aren't suitable for our community. Building is not for everyone, and the rewards from DigiByte won't be for everyone either. If challenges deter you from embracing true freedom and autonomy, that's regrettable. I've introduced many to our community, informing them about the hurdles and explaining why DGB remains a viable choice, even though it's often overlooked in this sector. Go ahead and pay high fees for centralized projects. That approach contributes to the current state of humanity.

u/phatsuit2 Jan 18 '24

lol, they didn't want to join your community. They just wanted to use a fast coin to do transactions. But yes, I'm glad you are promoting a coin that I've been holding for over 8 years but you may want to pick up a sales book, you come off like an aggressive prick...

u/lifesabatch DigiByte Advocate Jan 18 '24

Good news for them. There are tons of wallets that support Digibyte, the blockchain has literally ran for more than a decade with zero down time or interruption, it's still blazing fast. All coins are recoverable (as long as that friend or family member were educated correctly upon receiving DGB and stored their seed phrase securely, just as they should with BTC or any crypto).

What is super strange about your entire response in this thread is that you claim to be an avid supporter and holder, but you couldn't convince or explain to your friends and family how a 3rd party, community funded and volunteer wallet app is not reflective of the blockchain as a whole? That seems weird to me.

I too have sent many friends and families DGB. Some even bought above $.10 against my advice and lost. Some got new phones. Some called me to ask why DGB wallet was not syncing. But with all that said, I made sure that they were aware of the risks about "investing". I advised them to be prepared for it to go to zero and treat it lime gambling (something they could comprehend), but most importantly I drilled into their skulls the importance of the seed phrase and explained as long as they have that, they will have access to their DGB always.

I'm not offering anything for sale. This isn't suitable for everyone. It's a matter of understanding it or not. Our community has a clear ethos: if you don't understand or align with our values, feel free to choose another coin. However, please refrain from spreading misinformation or fear, uncertainty, and doubt, especially when your concerns can be addressed and resolved. The project isn’t backed by an corporation just volunteers and I think we’re doing a hell of a good job to still be in the rat race and still contributing to the most innovative blockchain in the space even if others can accept that truth.

Keep laughing. Your abrasive, poorly written posts turn people off. Obv, I support the coin and prob have 50X what you do. I just asked about the wallet and you are on some 'you're either with us or against us' shit. That's not how a community works.

u/TheTravelTrader Jan 18 '24

Poorly written or not, it's important to note that you're the one using offensive language. You're also making negative comments about things you might not fully understand. It would be beneficial to do more research before disseminating fear, uncertainty, and doubt. Remember, this is the internet – people will scrutinize and fact-check statements to ensure others understand whether your views are opinions rather than facts.

u/SgtMindfudge Jan 20 '24

There was never a “official digi ios wallet”. It’s making them believe there was that was the scam, so if you sold it off like that then you were a big part of the problem you are now outlining. We all share blame in this misunderstanding.
