Unless they could somehow find a way to tax bitcoin, the governments would never accept it. Big companies may as it could be a good way for tax evasion but unless governments could benefit from it somehow, it'll never be accepted.

This is actually due to an error with the QT wallet that has since been fixed and that I wasn't aware of when releasing Digibit. I'll get it fixed up asap and release a new version of digibit.

Are you using Windows?

@dev,

Today I download DigiBit, which is a MultiBit port, and try to use it. I like it so much coz it doesn't require to download the full blockchain

However, when I try to import private key from the core wallet and import it into this wallet, I get the following error:

The private keys unlock failed. The error was "Could not understand address in import file"

Having a closer look, private keys of this wallet start with letter "Q", while private keys of the core wallet start with letter "L" or "K"

It makes no sense private keys of these wallets are not compatible. Could you please have a look and get it fixed?

Thanks

Hi

Had the same problem this morning with a friends wallet.

Try running "C:\Program Files\Digibyte\Digibyte-qt -reindex"

It took a bit of time to do the reindex, but it's working fine now.  I'd suggest you take a backup of your wallet.dat before you start, just in case.

I think this is what will set it apart from other "coins" out there attached to memes and other BS. DGB seems to be making sure it is ready for a full roll out. It will be interesting to see what will happen if companies, and maybe a government here and there, starts accepting BTC as payment and what affect it will have on the alt markets. I wonder if the masses will just try to snag whatever they can?

Could be very exciting for a few alts.

If I'm honest, I'm so glad that Jared and team are waiting until they feel the coin is 100% ready for marketing so that when they start using the marketing platform and spreading the word, the coin will be able to look professional with no holes so that the coin will always be and continue to be a professional coin and dedicated team that everyone will have to get on board!

I was on the "BTC price watcher thread" and mentioned of DGB and nobody knows about it... then one of them came here yesterday and said "hello" because he was so tempted with the name "DigiByte". People have not discovered DGB as I said before... There is no marketing at the moment and I do not know the main reason, but I guess, DGB is not quite ready for that yet... We have to present something new and we have to have all the required tools for DGB ready. Along with that, we have to address all other communities, this is how you can take the attentions... So I hope Jared and team have a plan on this, and I believe they have, but just not yet... So that is why it is quiet now and price is so cheap...

I am telling you my great plan now: "BUY & HOLD".

I know right! I thought I'd play it safe than sorry and bought a bit at 16 and 17 SAT. That's still really cheap considering there are a lot of coins out there with $500,000 market caps and have nothing on DGB.

It'll be interesting to know when the crypto community will wake up and jump onto DGB.

Halinyo,
 Why would you continue to buy if you know there is a higher likelihood of BTC price decline? Doesn't that make it more expensive to buy DGB?

Hahaha, it is actually time to buy now... not next week...
But I am buying slowly.. No need to wake up the giant

So this is a hard question as there are many causal reasons for price to go up and down, on these forums many thoughts have been put forth.  What is even harder to understand, and rarely discussed, is the difference in time associated with each of these effects.  So if one believes that more retailers converting Bitcoin to Fiat results in price deprecation the question is what is the time and rate of this depression in cost.  Certainly the time for this decrease in price will be different (faster or slower) than the price change from people ceasing to mine.  Less miners might result in fear about Bitcoin which could drive the price down.  However, if those miners who drop out are the same miners who were just converting to Fiat immediately this will actually remove selling pressure leading to a rise in the price of Bitcoin.  Again the hard part here is in understanding the strength and time delay associated with this activity.  A real economist would create a system dynamics model to simulate these linkages.  What makes it even harder is that this is really the first major cycle for crypto currency so we have no other proxy models to base analysis upon.  Remember Bitcoin technology doesn't need peta-hash+ level capability to operate that was only a second order consequence of the arms race caused by people wanting Bitcoin.

In the short term I think price direction will be more heavily influenced by what ever factor will happen fastest; likely this is neither adoption by companies nor erosion of faith from a decrease in hash-power.  Those two factors probably operate on a time-frame of 6 months to maybe even a year.  So we need to identify a factor that operates in a time frame of ~3 months to understand the near term factors which most heavily influence BTC. ( I think day trading and bots at this point are likely draining on the price on the same order as miners are dumping).  From a psychological perspective we must consider the endowment effect were a person will neither sell at a level nor is willing to acquire more.  At $260-$280 I will not buy any bit coin nor will I sell the once I have.

In one re-guard BTC is a victim of its own success, it hitting a large market cap in beta makes it hard to incorporate new ideas as a failure would destabilize a multi-billion dollar industry.  Altcoins such as DGB can push with much less fear, consider the 2 hardforks on this coin, that would be much harder for BTC at this point.  However, this enables substantial improvement and testing.  Most alt-coins have been scams or poor clones offering nothing, however, some good ideas have emerged and they have pushed forward crypto.  The fate of BTC in my mind will be in its ability to reap the best ideas developed in the crypto world over then coming years.  If they can reap the best ideas and incorporate them either directly or as add on then it will continue to grow as it provides more value to a large base.  If it fails other coins that can deliver better value will superseded its first mover advantage.  I don't think anyone has yet imagined what all this new technology will eventually deliver but it becomes clearer every day that this is powerful technology, but it might take a decade to really see where it is all going.

Those are a few of my thoughts since you asked...in regard to DGB, this coin has proven it can innovate in a fast and efficient manner.  I hold several million for that reason.

You just keep focusing on buying in bulk hehe.

On a serious note.....BUY UP hard one hit and give us some exposure, ill join in next week.

I also need to know this. I will try to catch if DGB is going to be there.
