★★DigiByte|极特币★★[DGB]✔ Core v6.16.5.1 - DigiShield, DigiSpeed, Segwit

[the_game1224]

Bittrex is a volume player like most exchanges. They are typically used for new coins that are straight P&Ds. Not sure that's the place DGB wants to go.

YC

DGB to Bittrex?

dont see it on their exchange...

I think he wants DGB on bittrex but its already on mintpal so need for that.

While your statement may have been true a couple of months ago I feel Bittrex has been an increasingly more respected exchange over the past month or so.  They are delisting coins that are not active on a weekly basis and seem to be very responsive from a support perspective.   On the other hand, Mintpal's reputation has taken a huge hit in the past couple weeks with the attack and even more so in their adding of some very questionable coins.

Once the developments take place and the "behind the scenes" deal comes to light DGB will want all the exposure it can get.

Good feedback to hear. Let's see what happens.

Bittrex is where the volume will be, so DigiByte needs to be on that exchange. Not on Poloniex, lol. Don't see why.

[Gunther]

Can you all tweet good stuff (be original!) about DigiByte and add @BittrexExchange to that tweet? The more tweets, the better!
It's a small effort! Don't forget the hashtag #DGB.

Thanks!!

As long as there's volume on the exchange DGB is listed on, i don't see any problem being listed on polo

5 Bitcoin Trends That Have Emerged in 2014 (So Far)

Tom Sharkey (@tom_sharkey) | Published on July 13, 2014 at 11:10 BST   

The bitcoin landscape is evolving so rapidly that it’s hard to believe we’re already halfway through the year.

Like any new industry, there are so many areas to explore in the bitcoin space that a week’s worth of developments can sometimes feel like a month or two have gone by.

Bitcoin has certainly seen a lot of action in 2014. The collapse of Mt. Gox, hefty venture capital investments in bitcoin startups and the US government auction of 30,000 bitcoins seized from the Silk Road all generated buzz in the mainstream media.

bitcoin trends 2014

CoinDesk’s recent State of Bitcoin Q2 2014 report highlights some of the key developments that have influenced bitcoin’s journey over the past few months, providing context for the digital currency’s ever-changing position in society.

While only time will tell what’s in store for bitcoin’s future, a number of trends have emerged in the industry this year that could shape the direction and velocity of bitcoin’s growth.

Here are five bitcoin trends that have emerged in the first half of 2014:

1. Big-name retailers jumping on board

The year started with a bang when Overstock became the first major retailer to accept bitcoin. News of Overstock’s success with the digital currency served as a signal for other large companies to follow suit.

Electronics retailer TigerDirect integrated bitcoin as a payment option by the end of January, and other household names like the Sacramento Kings, Lord & Taylor and REEDS Jewelers got on board soon after.

By the end of June, three companies with at least $2bn in annual revenue had begun accepting bitcoin: DISH, Expedia and Newegg.

With smaller businesses also continuing to accept bitcoin at a fervent pace, we estimate that around 100,000 merchants will accept bitcoin by the end of 2014:

2. A warming regulatory climate

While it certainly hasn’t been all smooth sailing between governments and bitcoin this year, it seems like tides are changing and regulators around the world are starting to take a more open-minded approach to the digital currency.

In the beginning of 2014, China’s stance on bitcoin was ambiguous at best. By April, China’s Central Bank Governor said that banning bitcoin was “out of the question,” referring to it as more of an asset than a currency.

Russia, after releasing stern warnings about bitcoin early this year, recently reconsidered its stance on the digital currency.

Gerogy Luntovsky, the deputy chairman of Bank of Russia, explained that his agency is going to take time to examine bitcoin as the industry continues to evolve:

    “At this stage, we need to watch how the situation develops with these kinds of currencies. These instruments should not be rejected.”

Progress has also been made in places like California, where Governor Jerry Brown has granted bitcoin ‘legal money’ status, and Switzerland, where similar ‘legal money’ regulations are being considered.

Regulators seem increasingly willing to hold off on impulsive legislation in favor of working with the bitcoin community to find the best resolutions to prevent money laundering and fraud without stifling innovation.

3. VC firms keep betting big

Not everybody is as slow as governments to embrace bitcoin.

Serious venture capital investments in bitcoin companies were already taking place in 2013, but VCs have certainly kicked it up this year, with a total of $150m having already been invested in 2014.

With 2014′s Q2 VC investments reaching $73m (up from $57m in Q1), CoinDesk estimates that by the year’s end, 2014 VC investments in bitcoin companies will have surpassed 1995 VC investments in Internet companies:

The venture capital flowing into the bitcoin space supports the industry’s infrastructure both explicitly and implicitly: startups gain access to resources that allow them to build much-needed products and services around the Bitcoin protocol, and the investors’ confidence in the digital currency brings legitimacy to bitcoin’s reputation.

4. Building on the block chain

Most people who take the time to really learn about bitcoin realize that the true genius in Satoshi Nakamoto’s invention is not the coins themselves, but rather the block chain.

The term ‘Bitcoin 2.0′ is often used to describe applications that use the technology of the block chain to address issues like smart contracts and identity verification that were once impossible to solve in a decentralized way on the Internet.

Jeff Garzik, one of the bitcoin protocol’s core developers, described the significance of the block chain beyond the scope of digital currencies:

    “As a computer scientist, and in computer science in general, when you talked about building distributed systems, there tended to be a purely theoretical view about how computers would talk to each other, how to keep them coordinated. Satoshi and the blockchain really solved that problem in an elegant and unexpected way.”

Block chain-focused startups like BlockScore and BlockCypher have already secured funding this year from investors. As 2014 rolls on, expect to see new uses of the block chain technology solving problems in a uniquely decentralized manner.

5. New emphasis on transparency

The collapse of Mt. Gox, once the biggest bitcoin exchange in the market, was a wake-up call to many in the community.

The former exchange’s CEO Mark Karpeles was notoriously opaque in the months leading to its bankruptcy, causing confusion among users who held bitcoins on Gox.

Ultimately many people lost BTC through the course of Mt. Gox’s downfall. Outcries from the community started pouring in, demanding other big exchanges prove their solvency with professional audits.

Exchanges like Bitstamp, Kraken and Coinbase all agreed to be audited in the aftermath of Mt. Gox’s liquidation.

The demand for more transparency in the industry doesn’t stop at exchange audits, though. Revered bitcoin evangelist Andreas Antonopoulos recently took to Twitter to announce his departure from the Bitcoin Foundation, citing a lack of transparency as a primary concern:

If the first half of 2014 proves anything, it’s that the technology underlying bitcoin is resilient even under catastrophic circumstances (Mt. Gox), and that the community is willing to rally together in bringing bitcoin to mass adoption.

There’s a reason people call it the “honey badger of money.”

We have talked with the Myriadcoin devs as well as other devs and it appears to not be possible to include groestl with NOMP. No one to date has got groestl running on a NOMP pool.

We are now in the process of getting Groestl set up on a second MPOS pool. We will try and get everything set up under the same front end but no guarantees.

We are able to solo mine all 5 algos, but for testing purposes we want to get everyone to link to a single pool so we have some very accurate network data when we run the 48 hour mining test. Will post another update tonight or tomorrow morning as we get closer to the test.

So does this mean that changing "normalHashing": true, in the coin definition in NOMP didn't work? 

No it did not.

To get things rolling we will be starting a large scale 48 hour mining test tomorrow at 8 PM UTC, that's 4 PM in New York, 1 PM in Los Angles.
We could use all the test hash we can get! We will be posting detailed instructions on how to connect to the test pool in the next few hours.

We will also be posting details on which mining software you will need for each algo. This is a great learning experience for those new to multi-algo.

Please note this will be on TESTNET only. The coins mined will not be actual coins. Our goal is to throw as much hash on all 5 algos as possible to make sure we have no issues like we did with the last 2.9.1 update. This is also why we want to run the test for 24-48 hours.

You should consider some kind of a giveaway even if it's a small one, otherwise you can't really expect people to throw a lot of hash at the testnet. It just does not work like that.

Very good point.  Guess it depends on how large of a test you are looking for

We would love to have a reward for everyone, but we are tapped out and at the end of our development funding until we receive the first disbursement of outside investment. The pre-mine is almost completely depleted.

We look at it like this, we are a community and everyone will benefit by donating a few hours of hash toward the network. We will run the test for 48 hours but this does not mean we expect people to run their miners for a full 48 hours.

Download a different algo miner, play around with it, change it, switch algos and then after a few hours go back to mining as normal. We want to simulate real life hash swings here. Making sure everything works will benefit everyone in the long run! Thanks again for all your patience and support!

Jared,
 Really nice to see this being rolled out and you executing on what you said you would. Better to take time to be safe and secure than rush.

yes i'm, does each algo need diffrent wallet address or just the normal wallet? i'm asking cuase in getting started it says skein wallet address is this special wallet

thanks for the conf above it works fine
