This is a very important project because we feel the bitcoin and gulden adoption will explode in the near future. Those who know what's happening in the markets will understand why and we need to make sure our users are able to use Gulden to purchase at as many places as possible. The timeline is short and we need to be prepared.

Who the hell wrote that crap...so many errors my grandson could do better...what the hell is "Bricks & Mortals....Morter i think is the word needed there...& as for the rest of it OMG how embarrassing is that....you should contact them & get them to pull this down until the errors are adjusted

I get hundreds of emails per day, most of them are orders from clients, if i saved everyone i would have a mail box full to the brim just seems pointless saving mail you dont really need......having said that now that i need it its a pity i deleted it
But as you have put me on the spot i will check my gourl account to see if they have a message board or history & if i find it i will post it here for you....If i do find it please dont moan at me for posting negative stuff after all you are the one who asked for it so you can take the blame......even the ones that think they are doing right sometimes just causes wrong for there own good

Jesus mate they dont list every coin they accept on there front page, I dont have any proof they did or did not but i can assure i have no need to lie, in fact i have edited my original post with some constructive comments & link to a web site payment option that does accept DGB

im not so sure a BTC withdraw i initated at 24.12 got executed on 4th jannuary

if end is certain why they would execute it?

Nice buy support on Polo i have to say but if it were me before it goes i would just buy the big 3BTC sell order & knock the manipulation sideways...i know i know your all going to say then do it yourself but i am sad to say I have my fill of DGB & intend to not buy anymore until i see some major improvement in the sell sell sell situation...The thing is sometimes you have to turn the tides before the situation improves, just sat with buy orders ist working....attack the market show some balls

Has anyone seen this message?



It seems that cryptsy once again trying to muddy the waters..

I built a headless wallet on Ubuntu, and the daemon launches. How do I know if it's working properly? Where are the commands to use it listed?

This happened to me too when 2 days out of sync

Question #1: Why does DigiByte need to be able to match Visa's average transactions per second?

Short answer: Utility, usability, marketability and growth well into the future. "DigiSpeed" has already became a buzzword in the crypto community and has a very marketable appeal moving forward. More importantly DigiByte takes a bold step forward with DigiSpeed to dramatically scale a blockchain with multi-algorithim mining. However, this does not mean the DigiByte blockchain size will jump dramatically over night.

Question #2: I can't afford to mine and run 8 MB blocks on my PC?

Short Answer: We are a long way off from hitting 8 MB blocks. We are not even coming close to filling 1 MB blocks. This change simply removes a cap that Satoshi himself even admitted was an arbitrary limit he put together on the fly. Our assumption is we will not see 8 MB blocks until several years from now.

Question #3: What incentive will people have in the future to run a full DigiByte node when there is a large amount of data in the blockchain?

Short answer: The "DigiSize v5.0 wallet we are planning for mid-late 2016 will tackle this issue head on. This will include advanced pruning and syncing features as well as some increased incentives for running a full node. We are tossing around several ideas for what this incentive might look at. Perhaps a staking feature, perhaps a new type of mining algorithim or perhaps some other feature yet to be thought up. We would like all the input we can get on this topic. In the end the key to long term survival and network security is tens of thousands of people around the world running full DigiByte nodes.

Question #4: Won't people attack the chain with bloated transactions and OP RETURN data?

Short Answer: This is a very real possibility that we are going to mitigate up front by increasing the average transaction fee (still a very small amount). And we open the amount of this increase up to debate. The best way to explain this is if someone wanted to fill up an 8MB with thousands of small transactions in theory they could. But if it cost them exponentially more to carry this out the attack vector is mitigated. As for OP RETURN data, we will be keep this as is. Future security applications that embed data in OP RETURN should make use of distributed hash tables, not storing data directly on the chain.

Question #5: Transactions are becoming larger than 250 kb, wont this make the issue worse?

Short Answer: Yes some transactions are indeed larger than 250 KB and the average transaction size in the future will undoubtedly be larger but for now its a solid number to work from for averages.

Question #6: With such fast block times and sizes wont transactions be "lost"?

Short Answer: With multi-algorithm mining we are actually in a unique position compared to other coins who have tried with very fast block times. Even though the DigiByte network as a whole will see 15 second block times, each individual algo and mining pool actually is generating 1 minute 15 second blocks. Meaning each block has over a minute to pick up transactions. Some great data on network propagation can be found here: Microsoft Research: http://www.tik.ee.ethz.ch/file/49318d3f56c1d525aabf7fda78b23fc0/P2P2013_041.pdf

Question #7: Are you testing massive swings in difficulty?

Short Answer: Absolutely. But after DigiShield and Multi shield this is much less of an issue than the Bitcoin test data that was shown for BTC that showed this to be a problem with larger blocks. Bitcoin still retargets every 2 weeks.

Question #8: Where is the test data for DigiSpeed?

Short Answer: Before releasing the hard fork wallets we will release data on the following points:
*Transaction Times
*Block Times
*Algo Distribution
*Transaction Sizes
*Other data we find useful

Question #9: Why not release DigiSpeed by using a timestamp in the future or by network consensus instead of making network changes occur at a specific block?

Short Answer: By using a specific block everyone knows exactly when the changes to the network will occur. This dramatically mitigates several attack vectors. It also gives people the choice to opt out ahead of time if they so chose. It is also important to note this will be DigiBytes fourth hard fork. The previous three were carried out successfully in the same manner.

Question #10: With block-speed doubling wont that mean twice as many DigiBytes will be coming in to circulation each day?

Short Answer: No. At the hardfork point the reward will be cut in half so the same amount of daily DigiBytes will be mined.

In closing it is important to note we are not going to rush anything here until we are 100% happy with our test data and have addressed all of the communities questions. We would also encourage everyone to read this blog post by the Bitcoin developer Mike Hearn: https://medium.com/@octskyward/on-block-sizes-e047bc9f830

Let us know other technical questions you have and as they come in we will post replies below here:

I agree 30 Sata is a great price, I am going to buy another 2 Million DGB's shortly, possibly more to keep me busy before Midnight GMT, Happy New Year....

It’s not a question of if, rather it is a question of when (and I believe it has already begun, albeit in trickle mode still).

In my opinion, there is huge investment potential in cryptocurrencies. To get an idea of what I’m talking about, take the over 10 trillion USD aggregate M2 money supply for the U.S. alone and use that as your comparative calculative base, and then, being conservative, give the top 50 cryptocurrencies an aggregate value of just half that: 5 trillion USD.

If we assign equal parts of that 5 trillion USD of equivalent value to each of the top 50 cryptocurrencies, each would have the equivalent market cap of 100 billion USD. That means that each BTC would be worth $4,761.91, each LTC $1,190.48, each WDC $376.77, each DGB $4.77, and each DOGE would be worth around 1 buck (with the removal of its original cap of 100,000,000,000, similar to the fiats, it should initially lose around 5% of that value yearly in the coming years due to its now inherent inflationary component).

Does this sound far fetched? Why should it? Why shouldn’t cryptocurrencies have a similar value to their fiat cousins? After all, wasn’t that the original intent behind cryptos to begin with?

What’s more, the combined USD equivalent money supply of the developed world easily exceeds 50 trillion USD, 5 times the U.S. and 10 times this imaginary cryptocurrency aggregate figure. Is it really that far fetched to imagine that the best cryptocurrencies could one day have an aggregate value equal to a very modest 1/10 that of the developed world's aggregate fiat money supply?

"... remember the crypto market is all interconnected. digibyte isnt part of the crypto cartel that controls decisions on most exchanges."

But in exchanges still zero balance, i dont realy know but in my address i check recent transactions last is 14 dec
This is my wallet you can check this
Poloniex

Last i send 120k dgb and not list in recent transactions

Just a word to the old-timers. We all know who we are and none of us are the personality types that need reaffirmation. Let the newcomers join in and have fun. Ultimately they will become the old-timers themselves. A big hearty welcome to all, except for the trolls.

The trolls are hard to identify with complete certainty, but they do have common hallmarks, one of which is the disruption of online discussion. There are many other easily identifiable traits that allow you to spot them when they're around, and a few good strategies to defeat them. Identify them, don't ever go down to their level, slowly but surely patiently expose them, and then be done with them (using any of the many different strategies available to you). But whatever you do, DO NOT allow yourself to be part of their disruption (and sometimes quite intentional distractions) even if that means you might have to go without defending lies and insults beyond simply stating the facts or reminding someone that they are being offensive (once and only once). One of the better pieces I've read on the subject can be found here: http://www.peorian.com/technology/technology-news/trolls-cyberbullies/1079-how-to-identify-and-defeat-an-internet-troll

Like the author says, "Learn how to quickly recognize a troll and you've won half the battle".
