"If you were the President of the DGC Foundation, what would be your next step?"

[kenel]

Have not been keeping up with what is going on with Digitalcoin these days.

I used to watch DGC more though.

I remember DGC had its own forum at one time,

but last time I looked I couldn't find the forum?

Thanks for the response!

Why'd you stop keeping up?

We have a forum, making some changes to it at moment.

Where are all the Baritus fanboys now?

I remember catching a serious load of crap for calling him out for the scammer he is.

i remember catching a load of crap calling you out as a paid troll who dispenses FUD on coins whales want to take over

if baritus was a scammer then it only affects his side projects, NOT digitalcoin itself. DGC has had a clean distribution since its inception and continues to do so.

please go away, it's hopeless to argue with trolls like yourself.

[kenel]

agreed and hence why the various 'quit' replies sound like pretty sound advice to me  

Also, not sure if you're aware.....Baritus is no longer the developer of Digitalcoin. I actually haven't seen or talked to baritus in months.

Ahmed and Xawksow and several others make up our development team. Great group of guys.

Appreciate the enthusiasm, but not the purpose of this thread. All comments are welcome so long as they aren't negative toward members of our community outside of myself (meaning I'm fair game, do your worst).

[samson]

Still smells of Baritus. 


~BCX~

When you catch his trail, follow it.....I have a lot of people wanting their DGC back from the shares of cryptoave that he sold......

Any one still think he didn't steal the $30K worth of DGC?


~BCX~

Please remind me as I can't remember, who did he steal the coins from ?

[kelsey]

agreed and hence why the various 'quit' replies sound like pretty sound advice to me  

Suppose I should pack it all up and move along because some devs of other coins told me to; Sounds like solid advice to me

you're question has always been what would be 'your' next move, and in reference to me that's exactly what I would do, tis not at all advice on what you should do.

and to quit sounds like sound advice, as you stated you can't change the past, so dgc will always be haunted by its past.

[mrbodz]

Continue as you are. Improving DGC, Increasing Merchant adoption, Increasing usability.
 If like kelsey said DGC will always be haunted by the best. The only way to possibly go now is up.

Fair enough. I appreciate your input!

Why all the hating on Kenel?

I haven't been following DGC very closely but from what I've seen he's done his best.

Whatever hate people have for baritus shouldn't reflect on the current president of DGCfoundation.

Cheers!

I asked for it!

Want it all out in the open.

Not sure what you should do but it's shame to see DGC not doing as good as it should. For me, it still has, and always will have, the best name of all cryptos out there, including Bitcoin. I thought changing algorithm would help but it looks it wasn't caught by people too.

It's hard to compete in the crazy world off all these coins and in the middle of this brutal bear market, guess Baritus actions did some harm too. Anyway, I still have 200k of DGC from many moons ago that nobody will get cheap from me, and hope it will get it's place under the sun of successful coins at some time.

Anyway, I think you should emphasize the coin's top name bit more, it's the biggest selling point for DGC. Than, it needs to come back to people's minds again and for that you'd need some good news and lot of BTC to pump and support it's price. Pump is not some perfect fundamental stuff but it does bring coin to the spotlight, there is nothing really DOGE is better than DGC in except having a volume on exchange and price level supported by lot of bids. DGC unfortunately lost that momo long time ago and doesn't have any big guys supporting it.

DGC, price wise, may not being doing as good as it should, but the community and our developers are doing better than ever.

[hack_]

There are about 1000 "devs" , 150 "developers" and 20 "innovative developers". DGC is based on pretty recent code. I'd encourage you to contact some of the guys in the "20" group and join forces.

[SimonTower]

In my opinion the whole team make excellent work except the communication.
Somebody wrote about adopt services. We made a list from that, it's much longer than 90% of coins. It's okay but who knows about this list?
The devs working on lots of things, but nobody knows about it. Make some announcements!
Another problem is the time of the projects. We haven't years for some progress in this cryptoworld.

Kenel, You as personally could make contact with reasonable guys(owner of services, exchanges, developers of other coins for cooperate). The fact we are here now is a positive feedback, so You musn't quit.



And at last time to BitcoinEXpress: Forget the past, we haven't any contact with baritus, we don't care what he did with his personal stash. The CryptoAve project was his too. After he leaved and our foundation started to work the price was stabilized and we cleared up his mess.
"Where are all the Baritus fanboys now?" - We don't know, I didn't see a single one for a year.

We do contact those devs, when we switched to multi-algo hashing Ahmed received insight from 8bitcoder, who was the original developer of multiple algorithm hashing through his creation Myraidcoin. Most devs want to run their own coin, DGC just tries to be fair and friendly so that they'll be inclined to help us should we want to implement their technology. There's no need to have a team of devs (though it would be nice to have more names associated with DGC), you can't really 'force' innovation. This is all open-source, so we just try to remain updated with the best practices developed in crypto.

I'd never want DarkCoin level 'development' happening on DGC, that kind of hype and attention-grabbing will just eat us alive over time. I enjoy DGC as it is, cool and quiet, reliably minding its own business in the background. You attract better people that way.

I understand what you're saying though. It would build credibility and trust (of which DGC is deserving) the more trusted dev's names are 'branded' on the coin. But that being said, a 'team' is kind of misleading, all devs who work open source are already a team

Can you elaborate on what you mean by "eat us alive over time" ?

lack of aggressive development in this environment is suicide

[cosmoo]

Can you elaborate on what you mean by "eat us alive over time" ?

no credible institution is going to take a coin such as DRK seriously, since it's already been pumped and hyped, having the credibility squeezed out of it again and agian. By keeping DGC purely a grassroots crypto it is left open to interpretation. We can effectively go wherever we want.

lack of aggressive development in this environment is suicide

That's what people always say, yet here we are, two years later with over 70 active nodes across the globe. If by aggressive development you mean tacking on gimmick after gimmick in hopes of attracting dumb money.. that's stupid. The less you screw with a sound system the less you're likely to break it.

Not saying we should ignore DGC entirely, but real innovation occurs on its own, since this is an open source environment I think we're fine as we are. Whenever a real advancement in crypto is found (not gimmicks like InstantX or whateverthehell) then we can integrate that into DGC. All we need to worry about is keeping our network healthy and clean of fraud.

Now, aggressive PR, that's something else entirely. DGC needs wayyyy more PR than it currently has. Ya'll can yell at me for being lazy about that, cuz I am.

Thanks for clearing that up. "Eat us alive" didn't make sense to me

That not even an achievement. What i have seen in all my time is that coins with no active development and advancement die. coins without purpose die. Coins without direction die.

DGC is dying because it has 70 nodes. When i mined it along with worldcoin and the rest from that period, they had THOUSANDS of nodes. Interest is fading and once interest in an existing coin fades beyond a point....it dies.

Do you know tenebrix, fairbrix? Tonal bitcoin? those were the starter alts..lack of everything left them dead and buried.

cosmoo....starting from page 10 of the altcoin section.....i give you reality. And unless something happens sonn, DGc will average page 32 of the alt section
