+1

Wanted to drop in and give everyone an update. We have been on the road non stop working to make things happen for DigiByte. Multiple cities, time zones and meetings. It starts wearing on you but we are very excited and motivated to make things happen for all of you who are a truly awesome community!

We have received a lot of messages on several platforms but have not had time to get back to everyone. We definitely value everyone's input and we will get back to you just give us a bit of leeway and time and we will try and answer some of these questions on here as well as news releases.

Let's keep the momentum rolling and make sure to keep doing whatever you feel you can to make DigiByte better each and every day. Remember this is a decentralized currency at the end of the day.

Cheers & thanks again for all your support!

-Jared

Just keep doing what you're doing, we can wait...

Ooh Jared liked one of my posts, I'm touched.

Activists supporting plights, standing up for peoples rights.
Theatre goers’ bank rolling nights, see the stars shinning bright.
Adventurers gazing at the northern lights and other world famous, wondrous sights.
Even, Xbox games for troglodytes, now all paid for with digibytes!

not yet perhaps but soon!

ps love the Gandhi quote at that bottom of your post RJF.

Just a note to those self-rioteous people who think that investors are a "problem" : Get over yourself.  

You may live in some fantasy world where money doesn't matter or you may be independently wealthy.  Most people don't and aren't.  They are looking out for their own interests because they have to.  

Cryptocurrencies whether they are DGB or BTC itself will only grow by getting more people on board.  They will not grow by people holding onto their coins indefinitely and waiting for something magical to happen.  

DGB is meant to be a currency not an investment asset.  A currency only grows when people use it.  

Right now the only real place to use DGB is on exchanges and that is a big problem but if those people who are currently buying or selling DGB weren't doing what they are doing DGB would already be dead.

The way to grow DGB is to get new people on board and that will only happen with new features and more places to use it.  Right now DGB doesn't have anything sufficiently attractive versus more traditional payment methods for the average person on the street.  It may seem to for those of us in the crypto-community but this is a small niche.

I speak from personal experience of trying to get friends on board with cryptocurrencies.  

Most of them, even those who are technically minded, don't care.  

Until we can find a way to make them care and take notice, cryptocurrencies like DGB (and even BTC itself to a degree) will remain the domain of people who simply use them as a means to make money via speculation.

Here's a potential use case " https://unbreakablecoinauctions.com/vote.php? "  Is a crypto-coin auction site, would be cool if we could use DGB there. No, its not loaded with goodies now.. but it has potential. The more eyes the merrier.


EDIT: I just spoke with Jim ( the auction site owner/operator)... DGB is accepted there already, no need to vote. There's a 'use case' for the record.

Introducing ★★DigiHash Easy Miner★★ Beta v1.0

Hey there, I'm getting "redirection not supported," and the thing is that I've been mining for a few weeks now. What's wrong?

Is this...what i think it is...?

a good 'storm' i meant. like...taking the world by storm!

If I were Jared, I would not do any announcement before the coming BTC auctions on the 5th of March.
So plausible logic forces me not to expect any announcement before that... (but who knows)

Bitcoin price is increasing and clearly being manipulated by Fed.
Bitcoin price will continue increasing up to $340 (my guess) by the 5-6th and maybe 7th of March, and will be followed by a huge dump
Expect a huge suffering in altcoins, especially those very quiet ones.

Therefore, while the bitcoin price is pumping, people are more interested in buying bitcoin or holding their bitcoin position than any other altcoins atm.
Even if DGB price moves now due to an announcement, it will be dumped back very quickly and it will be just wasted.... That also whispers me that no announcement will be made.

Marked !

Thank you Jared! Keep up the great work.

I have planned a few of my works for DigiByte along with Bitcoin.
I hope to give some beta tests after the Summer. I cannot do full-time work on the projects atm.
But will have more time around Summer and will focus on them full-time.

I am no website designer, so I will need some help from your team for that part. Best,

I know devs who didn't follow that rule! And it was as you said...

Sometimes, you have to follow the habits of digital currency environment to exploit further and use it for DigiByte's future.

Watching price, and holding my breath.

I'm not sure if it's not because it's like watching grass grow though. 


This sure would be a nice place to put in a floor . . .

Is DGB steeled for potential regulation in the U.S. and other countries?

  can anybody answer this please

I'm not sure I understand your question. Could you be more specific? What do you mean by "steeled"? Are you asking if somehow there is a way for any one individual person, place or thing to somehow be exempt from public scrutiny and regulation? If that's case, the answer would obviously be "no", but, as I said, I'm not sure about your question, so if you could be a bit clearer . . .

In New York there will be the BitLicense in the next weeks with regulations for professionals in the crypto scene. With KYC etc. So if the Bitcoin scene will be regulated altcoins will be too. The developments are only as good as the accordance to the regulation can be. Otherwise you can't use the coin.
And I want to know if DigiByte is forearmed

If the coin has no DARK side, there is possibility of having it regulated.
But nobody can guarantee that, it could be just that BitCoin (XBT) is the first and the last coin to be regulated.
And do not forget that most coiners are against regulation.

Personally, I am sure %95-%98 of the Altcoins are to die, but DigiByte is hopefully and most probably not one of them.

Bitlicense would apply to financial intermediaries (exchanges and banks).  It wouldn't apply to individuals.  So, you can still use your coins.  Once Bitlicense goes into effect, you just can't start a company, take deposits, and use other peoples' assets without obtaining a license. 

I'm not going to guess about all the regulation that we'll see - all around the world - in the coming years.  Generally speaking, if done properly, the regulation should benefit both the value and use of digital currencies.  It should add a layer of responsibility and accountability.  Sure, there will be bad laws in some places.  But, I think it's more likely that we'll see greater benefits from regulation that requires accountability than from lack of it.

As far as I can tell, DGB is a thoughtfully developed and managed coin.  I would imagine they'll do just fine with regulation.

We are working on some updates at the moment to the easy miner download. We will also be releasing an updated version of the miner.
