So prove what I said in my post is wrong LOL.
Please guys, let's not bury this... Important information here...
A HISTORY OF DIGIBYTEI'll start by noting that DGB launched with a broken difficulty adjustment algorithm. Difficulty changed every 144 blocks, with a retarget range of 0.25x to 4x.#1440 Jan 12, 2014 12:05:11 PM 16000 Official premine over, rewards drop 72000 to 16000. Difficulty at 0.00105477

The double rewards end:#5760 Jan 15, 2014 11:45:37 AM 8000 Difficulty 6.31115652

All in all, 69,104,000 coins mined with a handful of GPUs in just over 2 days. Nice job guys. 5 weeks later... Hard fork to reduce rewards and maximise instamine effectiveness:#57023 Feb 21, 2014 6:27:03 PM 8000 Difficulty 8.35521372

Multipools having a ball with this Scrypt shitcoin that has nothing going for it at this point as far as the public can see.
Time to implement multi-algo and announce it on the first post here on this thread:September 1st, 2014: MultiAlgo hardfork at block 145,000. DigiByte plans & successfully deploys its second hardfork to allow miners to mine on five independent mining algorithms & is the first digital currency to make such a move.

Double rewards and reduce twice as fast (still every 10080 blocks)

Price nearly at its all time low due to big inflation increase. Who would bother to mine this shitcoin unless they knew something we didn't? Apart from auto-exchanging multipools that is.#188161 Sep 21, 2014 1:07:31 AM 7457

Time for a fork to drop the rewards... JARED NEEDZ CA$H!!#399999 Dec 11, 2014 3:51:42 AM 6712
#400000 Dec 11, 2014 3:51:45 AM 2434
I understand the devs, either through incompetence or plain scamming, doubled the rewards a few months ago... But they correct this by reducing it 2.75x?Huge price explosion... Rolling my eyes... Jared is rolling in cash!
March 26, 2015: Hype the upcoming DigiSpeed hard fork. Claim it will be able to process more transactions per second than Visa, and far more than Bitcoin. This turns out to be complete bullshit, of course.
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=408268.msg10892349#msg10892349August 25, 2015:Seriously, where is this DigiSpeed? Jared still hyping it. "We have set the hardfork block at 1,300,000. This will occur roughly on Monday October 19th 2015"
https://digibytegroup.com/project/challenge-contest-october-2015/Finally, the DigiSpeed fork:#1430000 Dec 5, 2015 12:35:44 AM 1078 Halving + theoretically half the block times

During this time, DigiByte was extremely vulnerable to attack, but it seems the DigiSpeed issues have finally been fixed (or have they?)
Now they're hyping DigiByte gaming. It's a massive pump, but for how long... Until MYR makes its return?
If anyone would like to take on updating the Android wallet we can organize a community bounty for the project ( this is the idea behind digis4commits).
250k investment. LMAO.
N.B. This list of dodgy acts committed by DGB devs is by no means exhaustive. It's only what I managed to uncover with just a couple of hours research.

Where is the proof the code is 3 years old?
this is technical, get someone who actually understand programming to verify it for you if you dont believe me.
it is well known that dgb forked from myriad, if you go to the myriad github repo
https://github.com/myriadcoin/myriadcoin you will see some info at top left, 1) myriad itself has only done 151 commits 2) myriad forked from zetacoin
we then go to zetacoins github
https://github.com/zetacoin/zetacoin you will see some info at top left 1) zetacoin forked from bitcoin 2) it is an amazing 6103 commits behind bitcoin
from this we can infer that myriad was also 6103 commits behind bitcoin, and that when digibyte was forked from myriad it would also then be 6103 commits behind.
of course at this point you are going to claim digibyte updated the code after forking, but here is a simple script that will prove you wrong
rm -rf dgb
rm -rf myr
#clone the 2 for comparison
git clone https://github.com/digibyte/digibyte.git
git clone https://github.com/myriadcoin/myriadcoin.git
cp -rf myriadcoin myr
cp -rf digibyte dgb
#normalise name changes for comparison
find myr -type f -exec sed -i 's/bitcoin/shitcoin/gI' {} +
find myr -type f -exec sed -i 's/digibyte/shitcoin/gI' {} +
find myr -type f -exec sed -i 's/myriadcoin/shitcoin/gI' {} +
find myr -type f -exec sed -i 's/myriad/shitcoin/gI' {} +
find dgb -type f -exec sed -i 's/bitcoin/shitcoin/gI' {} +
find dgb -type f -exec sed -i 's/digibyte/shitcoin/gI' {} +
find dgb -type f -exec sed -i 's/myriadcoin/shitcoin/gI' {} +
find dgb -type f -exec sed -i 's/myriad/shitcoin/gI' {} +
#delete images and localisation files as these are not code and create a lot of noise
rm -rf dgb/src/qt/res
rm -rf myr/src/qt/res
rm -rf dgb/src/qt/locale
rm -rf myr/src/qt/locale
#compare the src directories to get an idea of how much code has been added
diff -rubd myr/src/ dgb/src/ | grep -E "^[+][^+]" | wc -l
if you run this script you will find that there are only (and this is an upper bound) 1118 differences (most of these are from myriad side, as I showed in my earlier posts the entire code written by th e digibyte team is as little as 500 lines with most of that being generic stuff a child could change) between the current myriad and digibyte codebases if digibyte had updates to the latest bitcoin these differences would be much greater.
from this it is safe to infer that digibyte is on the same bitcoin codebase as zetacoin and myriad - the exact bitcoin commit zetacoin forked from is here
https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/commit/6d89611c3aaa85798c4d70d20e35e6bcb7bdd5c0 and dates back to 2013 meaning digibyte is terribly out of date and missing lots of features and bug fixes from bitcoin
of course I expect you still wont believe me so here is another script
rm -rf dgb
rm -rf btc
rm -rf btcforkpoint
#clone the 2 for comparison
git clone https://github.com/digibyte/digibyte.git
git clone https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin.git
cp -rf digibyte dgb
cp -rf bitcoin btc
cp -rd bitcoin btcforkpoint
#revert the repo to the point where digibyte was forked from
cd btcforkpoint
git reset --hard 6d89611c3aaa85798c4d70d20e35e6bcb7bdd5c0
cd ..
#normalise name changes for comparison
find dgb -type f -exec sed -i 's/bitcoin/shitcoin/gI' {} +
find dgb -type f -exec sed -i 's/digibyte/shitcoin/gI' {} +
find btc -type f -exec sed -i 's/bitcoin/shitcoin/gI' {} +
find btc -type f -exec sed -i 's/digibyte/shitcoin/gI' {} +
find btcforkpoint -type f -exec sed -i 's/bitcoin/shitcoin/gI' {} +
find btcforkpoint -type f -exec sed -i 's/digibyte/shitcoin/gI' {} +
#delete images and localisation files as these are not code and create a lot of noise
rm -rf dgb/src/qt/res
rm -rf btc/src/qt/res
rm -rf btcforkpoint/src/qt/res
rm -rf dgb/src/qt/locale
rm -rf btc/src/qt/locale
rm -rf btcforkpoint/src/qt/locale
#compare the src directories to get a basic idea of how much is different
diff -rubd dgb/src/ btc/src/ | grep -E "^[+][^+]" | wc -l
diff -rubd dgb/src btcforkpoint/src/ | grep -E "^[+][^+]" | wc -l
this script compares the latest digibyte codebase to the current bitcoin codebase and to the 2013 bitcoin codebase, it finds the 2013 codebase much more similar, this proves that digibyte has not kept updates with bitcoin
It has recently received approval by Riot Games for advanced API access to the League of Legends platform to scale the service of the platform for millions of more users.

i call bullshit
*i got this
Finally, someone who gets it. This coin's main innovations are 'premine', 'large instamine', and 'dishonest marketing'.
