Yes this is doing no good for crypto at all, it is the best to remove your coins directly after you buy them on a exchange. Just a a matter of time when the attack Bittrex-Cryptsy-Poloniex You're right. It makes crypto look like a juvenile delinquent's playground. Attacks are the exception. The norm is that insiders (those that run the exchange, paper wallet creator, what-have-you website) make off with the funds, and as long as they can continue to get away with it, they will keep stealing and saying "hope you guys understand."

Here's some possible material to use as a jumping off point for voiceovers, written materials, etc., that was derived from a brainstorming session looking for catch phrases to build various material around. My hope is that the brainstorming doesn't stop here. ---------------------------------------o--------------------------------------- Why DigiByte? It’s clear that the future is 'cryptographic', as in cryptographic digital currency, and while it may be clear to some that DigiByte is a clear winner, others may still be asking why they should choose DigiByte instead of some other, first generation, digital currency. #1 SafetyDigiByte, a cryptographic digital currency, is 5 times more secure than first generation digital currencies since it combines the use of five of the most advanced, most secure, cryptographic algorithms currently known to mankind. While there are close equivalents, there simply is no other form of monetary exchange that is safer to use. #2 Fast and EasyDigiByte is also THE leader in transaction speed, ease of use, and low cost fee structure.

Would you mind clarifying? HR, Thank you very much for typing this up! The original script was created by a video firm we hired to produce the professional introductory video. We have also consulted several outside parties to get their opinion on it. Our goal is to provide the most appealing video we can to new users. We forwarded this on to the video crew. Thank you to everyone else as well who has contributed feedback on the video script. When we have a version close to completion that incorporates everyones feedback we will post it. Cheers! Always happy to lend a helping hand. Looking forward to seeing what you're drumming up!

The new script is too long, too complicated, too convoluted, and too confusing. Ask yourself if you'd put it on the OP or the website, and if the answer is no, then ax it.
KISS: keep it simple stupid. Explain it to me like I'm a 5 year old (or your grandmother), and, whatever you do, don't be pretentious!
I prefer the first option a million times over (warts and all)!

I think we have a lot more success with a Digibyte only forum? Any thoughts It's been suggested before (in fact, I was in favor of it and thought that DigiByte.co should have its own dedicated DGB forum), but I think the general consensus view at the time was that, since BitCoinTalk gives DGB much needed exposure, and a dedicated forum would "redirect" contributors away from that much needed exposure gained by posting on BitCoinTalk, it was a good idea, but for some later, future date, somewhere down the road once DigiByte has "grown up" a bit more. I think that's basically what it came down to; correct anyone me if I'm wrong on that. Well iam in for it, this domain is still free digibyteforum.com But who has the knowledge to build it I do. But I was more thinking about Slack. I have setup a channel a while ago. It's your choice guys. If you like a messageboard more, i can setup a board. No problem! So, what will it be? A board or Slack? The downside of (free) Slack is that you can only read back to 10k messages while a board is basically unlimited. + You can create multiple threads about different subjects. Like, 1 thread about the video, 1 thread about marketing, stuff about DigiByteTip, etc, etc. You can all read it back faster + Jared doesn't have to read 1000 messages about the price but can just focus on the useful stuff like bugs, features, ideas. I'm willing to pay for the domain and hosting + i'll set it up for free. So, discuss, decide and lemme know. There are several places here where we could "compartmentalize" while still benefiting from shared strengths with BitCoinTalk at the same time.

My idea for the multilingual "DigiByte Accepted Here" would be to have "Accepted Here" written in all the languages, repeating over and over, as a watermark behind the main logo and main language (dependent on the region where it would be used). Sadly I have no skills with InDesign or Illustrator, but I hope someone can picture what I have in mind. What's been said on the subject so far has me thinking about the idea of just leaving it only in the "international language", English; otherwise, the list gets long and busy, and/or there are those left out who might feel discriminated against, etc., etc. DigiByte
Accepted HereNice and clean, and everyone, all over the world, understands it.

COOL! time for a global promotion! oh btw, spelling mistake at the ending --> its "receive". not "recive". quick fix it Noted! thanks, Getting that changed. Just to round up all the changes so that it will be easier. 'IMPROVEMENT's are those that really needs to be changed. 'SUGGESTION's are those that i am simply just suggesting. Purely optional as my English isn't Perfect...didn't scored As in schools for it. At 0:13ORIGINAL: "...recieve..." IMPROVEMENT: "... receive..." REASON: Spelling mistake At 0:27ORIGINAL: "People from all industries, walks of life and skillsets" and "can benefit from what Digibyte offers." SUGGESTION: "People from all industries, skillsets and walks of life" and "can benefit from what Digibyte has to offer." REASON: based on my English Knowledge, i just thought it sounds better and more fluid sentence-structure wise. that's all. At 0:48ORIGINAL: "People all over the world are beginning to see & utilize the potential digital money offers." and "Don't let this new wave of technology pass you by." SUGGESTION: "People all over the world are beginning to see & utilize the potential that digital money has to offer." and "Don't let this new wave of technology pass by you." REASON: same as 0:27. At 0:57ORIGINAL: "...recive..." IMPROVEMENT: "... receive..." REASON: Spelling mistake In addition, i am not sure if its for the best but is it better to remove all the "."? i am referring to the fullstops. As i watched the video, some had it and some didn't. it does look better...visually without them. But i am not sure if its a sensible/logical thing to do. haha... just to round up other people's posts for your convenience Thanks for your effort and work. Good Job! Great work, thanks.
I think, the language can be formalized a bit more, especially, at: 0.35 secs, like "you can either purchase DGB from exchanges or mine.... etc..", in general, language can be improved in a more formal way. This is really important, implying that how serious DGB is and can take the attention of serious investors.
Also again at at: 0.35 secs, since we give mining information, in the next frame, explain how to mine and mention the security of DGB with that 5 mining algorithms, for example, each algorithm can be circularized around DGB logo.
And I agree that music is a bit disturbing, it could have been better.
Thank you. Regards,
Indeed, and at 0:13 it's written as "recieve" instead of "receive"
Yoyo, Thank you very much for the suggestions! We are working on getting them implemented. We are also working on another video with a voice over & will post the script for that video below this posts to get everyones input. Cheers! Sorry about not posting this sooner - haven't had the time as you know - but better late than never, right? I say SLOW IT DOWN!!!!It's waaaay toooo fast! I'm a native speaker and I couldn't even keep up with it. Had to watch a second time and still didn't get it all. I know that we're an attention deficit generation that loses interest after the 5 second mark, but the video moves so fast that the opposite might actually happen with the excessive speed being a turn off! Really now, the video is so good that is should be savored! Even modern techies are known to "endure" full length movies when they are good enough! I think this video is so good that slowing it down by 50%, that is to say, making it twice as long with the exact same content, will actually serve to enhance it even more.

Others have already showered you with accolades, but this is so good that I want to add my applause as well. Very professional! The amount of positive (both conscious and subliminal) information you communicate with this very "simple" presentation is incredible! Would it be correct to suspect that you are in a related line of work? Fantastic graphic artwork.

Everyone, We are working on a second DigiByte promotional video with a professional voiceover. So far here is the script we have. What does everyone think? What other hit points can we make? Remember our goal is to keep things as simple and straight forward as possible. Okay, so, what is a DigiByte?
DigiByte is a form of currency. Kinda like dollars, euros, yen, or even bitcoin.
But unlike traditional currencies, DigiByte doesn’t require a financial institution for transactions to take place.
While a dollar might be sent from one person’s bank to a credit card processor to another person’s bank, DigiBytes are sent directly from peer-to-peer.
And by cutting out the middleman, you’re cutting out most of the processing fees that typically come along with each transaction.
But each transaction still needs to be verified, to ensure that someone doesn’t spend the same DigiByte twice.
So each DigiByte transaction is verified electronically by other peers in the DigiByte network - and they get a little reward for doing so.
DigiBytes can be sent and received anywhere in the world with an internet connection.
Unlike Bitcoin, DigitByte transactions are fully confirmed within 3 minutes, instead an hour.
And DigiByte’s state-of-the-art security makes it 5 times more secure than Bitcoin.
You send data in megabytes and gigabytes, why not send money in DigiBytes?

should it be "instead of an hour" on line 9? yes, i think so too. it should be "instead of an hour" on Line 9. ORIGINAL: Okay, so, what is a DigiByte? SUGGESTION: Okay, so what is Digibyte? REASON: sounds better in my opinion. no obligation. just my 2 cents. ORIGINAL: And by cutting out the middleman, you’re cutting out most of the processing fees that typically come along with each transaction. SUGGESTION: Using Digibytes will cut out the middleman, saving you from most of the processing fees that typically come along with each transaction. REASON: emphasize on "using" digibytes. ORIGINAL: So each DigiByte transaction is verified electronically... SUGGESTION: So each DigiByte transaction will be verified electronically... REASON: better English? haha...need approval from other people here. ORIGINAL: DigiBytes can be sent and received anywhere in the world with an internet connection. SUGGESTION: You can send and receive Digibytes anywhere in the world with an internet connection. REASON: Putting the user + Digibyte into the picture together rather than solely focusing on Digibyte. From what i have learn from my Marketing lessons if i am not mistaken, never separate the Consumer and the Product. important to repeatedly make links/connections between the 2 of them. I think your suggestions are good - the active voice is always better than the passive when trying to communicate dynamism and encourage action. With regards to "each DigiByte transaction", I think the correct tense is the present however, since it is something that is always true and always happens: each DigiByte transaction is verified electronicallyOne thing I'd like to add: it might be worth explaining the "peer to peer" phraseology since the non-technical may not understand that at first. Something like "DigiBytes are sent directly from peer-to-peer, or in everyday terms, from one user directly to another" might be advisable. You might also be more specific with "type of currency". That kind of vague language makes it look like the writer either doesn't know, or is hiding something. I would suggest "a cryptographic digital currency", which is very specific and describes exactly what it is. Never start a sentence or paragraph with "but" - "but" is a conjunction. In this case the word "nevertheless" is much more appropriate. (line 6) In line 7 "small reward" is much better than "little reward" - the first communicates information regarding size, and the second evokes subliminal questions about whether it is worth doing or not. Consistently coherent organization is important as well. Wouldn't line 8 be better right after line 4, for example? Or might it not even be better if it were directly incorporated into the end of line 4? Negative statements about the competition are to be very carefully considered and used sparingly. Negativity of any kind in promotional materials is generally not advised. "DigiByte transactions are fully confirmed within 3 minutes" might be enough in and of itself. "DigiByte’s state-of-the-art security makes it 5 times more secure than first generation, single algo digital currencies" might also be worth considering as it is more positive and focuses mainly on DigiByte's lead and distinction in general, rather than a tit-for-tat battle with someone else who you might even be indirectly suggesting is better than you by the very fact that you feel the need to compare directly (also, this line begins with "and", and, again, conjunctions should not be used to start sentences - "and" should be omitted here as well). As others have already confirmed, the correct phrase is "instead of". That's my "quick look" contribution. If I had more time I'd take a closer look, but by the looks of things here with this community, I'm sure we'll all get a final edit that is the best it can possibly be. Cheers everyone.
