I think this is what the same vertcoin pump group is wanting to hear. We all know whats going to happen on release to the price.

I tried explaining dgb to my wife and she said "huh? What's a Digibyte"

Traced the activity in the last few days: I do not see any reason for the growth of capitalization, all it took waiting position

Hey guys! Can anyone share a bootstrap.dat file (or just an archive with the blockchain)? Coz I think I don't have that much patience to wait untill the wallet downloads everything itself

I don't believe that devs should have to reveal their identities. These are open source projects. Criticise the code, not the coder. Identifying yourself as a dev only introduces yet another vulnerability to the coin: if the coin becomes successful, the dev could be persecuted. Nobody is behind Myriad, yet it continues to receive updates. When a security hole has been found in the multi-PoW system, the Myriad community has been quicker to release updates than DigiByte. That's with one single anonymous dev, and a community of contributers. Myriad is not dependent on its devs like DigiByte is.

The new Myriad website is in development, by the way. Check http://reddit.com/r/myriadcoin for information

I was hoping to stay out of this conversation, but since I both discovered and fixed said security hole I thought I'd share my experience as a contributor.  Every time I pointed out a flaw and offered a solution to DigiByte, Jared immediately welcomed my ideas and code.  On the other hand, when I did the same for Myriad I was largely ignored.  I should also add that there is an unfixed security hole in Myriad's multi-PoW system that DigiByte does not and will not have.  As for releasing the fix sooner, in both cases it was decided to simply work the change into the next planned hard fork. It just happened that Myriad's planned hard fork was for a sooner date.

On a more philosophical note I do agree with you that people shouldn't need to know the identities of developers of a collaborative open source project.  But the key word here is collaborative.  Most coins are too much cathedral and not enough bazaar, to use the terms from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Cathedral_and_the_Bazaar.  DigiByte development has been more closed as of late, and it's one of the few things I will criticize it for.

Edit:

DigiByte copied Myriad's multi-algo design, and Myriad released a fix for the timewarp, as well as a fix for the work computing function, before DigiByte did. The fact is, Myriad keeps its security more up to date than DigiByte.

Nope, this is factually inaccurate.  DigiByte fixed time-warp in November 2014.  Myriad had to "fix" time-warp 3 times, the last of which was February 2015.  In fact, Myriad copied their final time-warp fix from DigiByte.

Thank you for your input here MentalCollatz.  And, more than that, thank you for your contributions to DGB.  As a community we also welcome and appreciate all your work.  I agree that devs shouldn't get pulled into every conversation and avoid the white noise as much as possible.

Good Luck to everyone who entered the October DigiByte Knights challenge contest.  More than 50 people (from over 20 countries) entered the contest.  We are truly a part of a global community supporting DGB.

We will complete the drawing (and notify the winner) later today.

And, be on the lookout for the November contest - which I'm working on at the moment.

Let me know if you have any questions.  Cheers to everyone,

Eric

prices continued to strengthen from day to day

Would it be a good idea to add DGB as payment on my web site
Just wondering if anyone would be interested in buying items with DGB or is it just one of them coins that you are buying just to hold on to
I have accepted many different Cryptos before but for some reason its near impossible to get people to use Crypto to buy things...probably one of the reasons Crypto is finding it hard to get going due to so many just wanting the hold for profit
Anyway this is my web page IF anyone is interested www.partycakesforu.co.uk

I want to get into Crypto but find it hard to get Bitcoin in the UK

If anyone does want to buy something please order on the web site & fill in the delivery details
then send the correct amount of DGB to

DCGZgSw9gET1bEHnsg6U6DzEw24PDoRuMH

After payment received i will send your goods & email you to confirm dispatch
Thank you in advance

Hi dygus.  Welcome to the DGB discussion and community.

You could also look at the recent videos posted by Jared.  

Start here:  

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s6SxmDmUvIk

And, then, an update:  

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r4JFALjythE

For a general overview of DigiByte's core services you could look at the overview on the DigiByte Group's website here:

https://digibytegroup.com/learn-about-digibyte/

However, I know that that page needs a bit of updating to include some new information related to DigiByteGaming, the (soon-to-be-released) DigiByte Marketplace, and also some general updates about DigiSpeed.  I'll probably hold off fully updating the website until the release of DigiSpeed.  I've been working on a complete website update for the DGB Group.  I'm hoping to have it completed within the coming month.

Digibyte seems to be moving on Poloniex quite possible to reach top 3 spot in volume today.

[ReSl]

Is that also a pun?

PUN? What you mean?

[Jumbley]

Recently there seems to be a resurgency in activity here on Bitcointalk.  

price is up nearly 1MYR since this morning, my new measure of DGB health.  

sorry, that's a cheap dig.

Is that also a pun?

I was wondering if anyone would spot that! 

[Jumbley]

Welcome to any new member in our thread, unless you are a troll!  

Well the winner of the DigiByte Group Knights Challenge has been drawn and I can tell you the lucky winner is forum member divincicode666.
I've contacted you by email but taking a wild guess just looking at your posts in this forum, I'm going to bet you do not have any mining in DigiHash but do let me know if I'm wrong!

So it looks like you are the lucky winner of a cool 250,000 DGB, congratulations and that will be sent to your provided address within the next 24 hrs or after you have replied to my email.

Sorry everyone else but lets see what we come up with this month for another chance!

[Sharkzz1]

With these DGB prices that 250.000 dgb is around 100 usd, thats pretty generous of you Jumbley!
