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

[DigiByte]

We just checked our seed nodes & the block explorers. They are all showing the same block & the same chain. All appears to be well there.

Could you please contact Bittrex? They have disabled DGB.

We just contacted them & will report when we find out what the issue is. Thanks for the heads up!

[DigiByte]

Here is a very interesting perspective on $10,000 BTC by the beginning of next year. This is going to be huge for DigiByte as well! https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=781882.0

Any update regards DGB wallet being disabled on Bittrex?

Awesome news! One of the biggest Bitcoin expos out there! Will you have a booth or just an attendee? Any speaking?

YC

Please let us know what information or updates we need to make to the front page of this thread & the website. We want to make sure we have all mining pools & correct information. We will be attending Bitcoin Expo in China ( Shanghai) this coming week!

Thrassos, in your Skein DGB pool, I think the hashrate reported in the pool statistics is wrong.

My cgminer says I have about 203Mh/s, your pool has been showing my hashrate between 1100Mh/s and 1600Mh/s.

(edit: this looks like it's fixed now)

Thank you bogglor. I think now hashrate is shown correctly in pool's statistics. Can you please confirm?

People are always so quick to blame the coin when they see a problem on an exchange. Some of these "exchanges" are held together with bubblegum and tape but their GUI looks good! At least Bittrex put up a message telling everyone there was maintenance going on...

[ycagel]

Check this out:

Can you imagine the impact that this will have on other solid alts? It's a double pricing effect. BTC goes up and the alt goes well (compound).

Would be quite spectacular if we can get the twins to add DGB as the first alt coin in their trust.

A few more notes:

1.Mintpal support finally got back to me and they said there is an error with the quantity of DGB being sent to a physical wallet. They cancelled and I did a smaller test and it worked. When I reverted back to the original transaction, it hung again. I also asked them to restart and reindex their wallet, so just something for folks to think about when trading with their platform.

2.I have thinking about various ways for folks to protect their interest in DGB. I have heard of everything from dumping keys, paper wallets and even cold storage. In regards to cold storage, can someone explain the process and how the liquidity flow works if you are looking to "connect" back to the Internet and sell, trade, etc? I particularly use Coinbase, which is the only option at this point. Like to understand more how this process works.


Thanks to everyone. Keep up the momentum and great work. Can't do it without you folks as you are leading us to the final destination for DGB!

Did some more research and it seems to be called deep cold storage:

Deep cold storage refers to keeping a reserve of Bitcoins offline, using a method that makes retrieving coins from storage significantly more difficult than sending them there. This could be done for safety's sake, such as to prevent theft or robbery.

Because Bitcoins can be sent to a wallet by anyone knowing the wallet address, it is trivial to put a wallet in cold storage but to keep a copy of the addresses needed to send funds to it.

A simple example of deep cold storage is opening a safe deposit box and putting a USB stick containing an encrypted wallet file in it. The public (sending) addresses can be used any time to send additional bitcoins to the wallet, but spending the bitcoins would require physical access to the box (in addition to knowledge of the encryption password).

Deep cold storage would typically be used for holding large amounts of bitcoins, or for a trustee holding bitcoins on behalf of others. In such a case, additional precautions should be taken beyond a simple example of a single safe deposit box.

The box could be accessed by bank or maintenance personnel, so the contents of the box alone should not be sufficient to access the wallet.
The box could be stolen or destroyed in a disaster, or the media could become unreadable, so the box should not contain the only copy of the wallet.
The trustee could die or become incapacitated. If access to the wallet or knowledge of its location is lost, or encryption passwords are lost, the bitcoins are gone forever. Provisions should be made so that the box can be accessed by someone else as appropriate, including any encryption passwords.

I noticed something else with the Skein pool. This isn't a big deal, but we found an orphan block which isn't being reported in the pool statistics.

I know we don't get any credit, but shouldn't that be listed in the pool?

I'm not sure its quite required just yet. I'd say writing it to a usb is safe enough, the data is supposed to outlast you if you don't use it too often. Not quite as safe as a safety deposit, but a whole lot cheaper.

Thank you bogglor. This should be fixed now, as there was an issue with nomp stratum; it could not verify the submitted block because the blockhash using to do the verification was not correct. Moreover, the specific block is not shown as orphan in the transactions of our wallet (I will have to check this).

Code:

[digibyte-skein] (Thread 1) We thought a block was found but it was rejected by the daemon, share data: {"job":"14f","ip":"xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx","port":5019,"worker":"xxxxxxxxxx","height":173577,"blockReward":757083663854,"difficulty":0.62335653,"shareDiff":"1802.29621833","blockDiff":1312.094260319,"blockDiffActual":1312.094260319,"blockHash":"0000000000245ca8930225c59debd1a267bcdbde27f2a77a2b810c68350bcfb9"}

The market is going very strong!
Watch out when you buy, maybe placing a buy order some lower will benefit you overnight because healthy markets take a dump.

And this market is looking very healthy! 

I'm sooooooo tempted to go after another batch right now, and forget about waiting until January . . .
