Just wondering if there is a problem with DGB wallet as Bittrex has the wallet statues Inactive
Problem being
The wallet is disabled. This is usually due to the network having difficulties or the wallet taken offline due to a coin swap.
https://bittrex.com/Status
More than likely the price will be pumped now this usually happens when the wallets are down.....well it does on Cryptsy

The first time I heard about Digibyte was in an article in a Dutch newspaper NRC.next. Since I always had a looming interest in crypto-currencies, I decided to start reading more about Digibyte and other crypto-currencies. The thing which really triggered my interested in Digibyte specifically, was the 'real-life' application using the Tofugear omni-platform. In order for Digibyte (and other crypto-currencies) to succeed and be accepted by the mainstream public it needs to be better in two criteria than current fiats: 1. speed and 2. ease of use.
Last Friday I visited the store of the House of Blue Jeans of 24hralttrade to experience 'shopping in the future' made possible by the Tofugear platform and the House of Blue Jeans. 24hralttrade showed me the possibilities and I was quite impressed. Especially the realtime analytics behind the platform is something which is very interesting for retailers themselves (stock/supply wise, but also the feedback of why certain products are taken out of the shelf often, but do not get bought). When I had to pay with Digibyte, it worked just as fast as when I would have paid by debit card. Therefore Digibyte already fulfills the first criterion (although it will have to meet this criterion when volume increases when more people start to use it - it should match at least the speed of other fiats when it's scaled). Even though Digibyte is only a (small) part of the Tofugear platform, the real life experience in the House of Blue Jeans convinced me even more of why Digibyte is a very interesting crypto-currency.
Coming to the second criterion; the ease of use. In the shop it was actually easy to pay with Digibyte, if you had everything set up (Digibyte Wallet on your phone). The most difficult part was actually when I decided I wanted to buy some Digibytes. Being new to crypto-currencies in general, I had to figure out everything about crypto-currencies. Even though the Digibyte website helped me somewhat with their explanation on the website on how to get Digibytes, I think there is room for improvement. Couple of suggestions:
1. Add an option for a real web-wallet (just like coinbase), where I only have to setup an account instead of installing stuff. I have a bank account online, why no Digibyte account?
2. When I wanted to buy Digibytes, I first had to find an exchange where I could buy Digibytes. That means I had to make an additional account on that exchange (= extra effort = less ease of use). In addition, I first had to buy bitcoin, since I can only buy Digibyte with bitcoin on most exchanges (at least the ones I check out). I don't want bitcoin, I want Digibyte for my euros! :-)
Since I am quite interested in cryptocurrencies, it was a nice learning experience. However, the mainstream public is lazy and does not want to go through this many steps. I am already having a hard time convincing friends of mine to buy Digibyte, because they don't understand cryptocurrencies in general, and setting up a Digibyte wallet and buy Digibytes at a different place (exchange-website) is already too much trouble. Therefore I would suggest (and I know it is not easy) to have one online Digibyte webwallet where you can buy in the same environment Digibyte for your Euros/Dollars/etc. This would greatly contribute to the 'ease-of-use' of Digibyte which is essential in order to get accepted by the mainstream public.
Furthermore, I think the Digibyte team is delivering excellent work, especially with the Digibyte Market (another 'bridge' to real life - being able to buy real products with Digibyte) and focusing on the gaming audience; a huge potential and an audience which is a bit tech-savy than the mainstream public. Excellent move in my opinion.
Keep up the good work! :-)

Great to hear about your real life experience. It's been a while since we've spoken about this and it is a very deserving subject that we certainly don't want to forget about. I agree with you about the need to make the fiat to crypto conversion process easier and that's initially done with good documentation (as I am trying to do on my website, but unfortunately due to Cryptsy recently being called into question, I've had to pull a few things down). However, before you can document, you need something to document, and with the lack of infrastructure, well, let's just say that all we've got in Europe is LiteBit, and Coinbase in the US, but fortunately they are doing well and growing. Online wallets are inherently insecure, and few peope want to put their necks on the line so that others can have an easier time of things. Once a good legitimate service is finally offered, it will likely be quite expensive . . . and any thing else in this area that doesn't cost is probably a long term scam where one day everyone wakes up to find out that they've lost everything. One last thing worth mentioning is the basic underlying nature of currency exchange: when was the last time you bought Swiss Francs or Japanese Yen without having to "jump through hoops"? There are some things in life that you just can't avoid.

headsup to Jared, the DigiByte Team and 24hralttrade.
excellent customer feedback. this is very valuable. exactly what i love to hear. very well said with pinpoint accuracy. fully agree, especially those in bold above.
Speed will definitely get tons better soon with DigiSpeed. And even better as time goes by. Because Jared and the DigiByte Team got all that factor in and covered. As for the ease of use part, it is something that every altcoin faces. the tricky part is bridging both the bank account and altcoin wallet/exchange together so that one can easily transfer fiat and buy said altcoin. Only Bitcoin has managed to overcome this hurdle so far. I do not know what lengths the altcoin has to go to build that bridge, likewise for DigiByte. It may be a lot of work down the road, just as much as what Bitcoin had to go through. the quickest way would probably be this - Coinbase accepts DigiByte to be traded on their exchange and viola, everything else is already done. i mean...hey...if Litecoin and Ethereum can do it, so can any other altcoin. it just needs to prove that it is damn good to be on the same level as Bitcoin.
UNLESS...is Jared and the DigiByte Team going to surprise us with something??? those who have been following DigiByte for a long time (more than a year), yea...you know what i am referring to
. it hasn't been mentioned for MANY months now until WaZZapi brought it up. Because it was the DigiSpeed craze for several months and then plus other awesome updates and additions along the way. those who still remember, good for ya. but just in case it is suppose to be a discreet thing or it has been shelved or it has change to something better, i don't want to mention it just yet. i shall leave it to Jared and the DigiByte Team to do the announcements. now that will really be something! But anyway, any other ideas digibyters?
We have one surprise that will be announced soon

How about creating a marketing campaign for Digibyte Market? That would show that Digibyte can actually be used, not just converted to bitcoin. I know I could contribute DGBs to such a campaign.

★ DigiByte Android Wallet v2.1.5 Update ★
Everyone, we have pushed an updated for the DigiByte Android wallet to the play store. This wallet has a more recent checkpoint and should sync very quickly. Some people were having issues with the wallet syncing. If for some reason you still have issues go into the wallet and clicks -> settings -> Reset Blockchain to reset the blockchain. This should discover any transactions that are not appearing. We are also upgrading the wallet to HD along with other improvements. Shooting for Q1 2016. Also we have someone working on the iOS wallet update. Stay tuned for that.

Don't blame the supporters for the volume or the price on exchanges. Supporter=/=trader. (and traders are also not investors)
I could only bought 1.4 million last week.
ps: leave cryptsy, move to poloniex

Jez everytime i buy DGB the price goes down, so if this coin is so undervalued why is it there has been nothing but sell, sell, sell on Cryptsy for the last 3 days...if its that good a coin why are people selling it...is it just one of them coins that goes up on Hype & down when the hype is over?
Is it a trade only coin...buy on the low sell on the highs?
Im just trying to understand why its such an up & down coin...
If you so called DGB supporters here think its worth 500 sats or more then please explain why you aint buying any now @ 90sats
If you think its that good you like telling me if you thought BTC was worth $500 & you were able to buy it for $90 you would not buy any at that price.....you lot crack me up how you go on about its worth but when you have a chance to buy it cheap you do nothing...great support you lot are

There is no need to "leave Cryptsy" but, I do support putting more effort Poloniex...

Now i have 2.420.510 dgb and i will sell 1.210.000 dgb when the price go to 0.01$. And then i will sell the other dgb if the price go to 0.50$. This is a good idea for you?
Hehe, that's a great plan you got there man. I think no matter what price you get in, from 50 to 100 satoshi (and even a little more) if you plan for the long run you'll get a profit eventually. If not, well, something catastrophic would happen, both to DGB and BTC and if you think about that amount although is a big amount for me it's not that much in fiat really.
It goes without saying that for speculation and very short term trading then many altcoins fit the bill, not only DGB.
its a good idea. Do keep in mind that if Bitcoin becomes $100 000/BTC (somehow), 1 DGB will be worth about $0.088 at the current price (88SAT). Rise in Bitcoin price can also make DGB price go up as both are measured in SATOSHI units. Of course, not everything is dependent on the price of Bitcoin. If say Bitcoin rises to $10 000/BTC and DGB rises to 1000SAT/DGB, 1DGB will be worth $0.10. So be sure to monitor and do your maths.
But if you are looking at DGB/FIAT pair (direct exchange from DGB to fiat), that is another way.
Remember - one of DigiByte's Goal is to aim for around $1-$10 in the years ahead.

because i got in at 20, 50, 80, and have no money left to spend on crypto. #holdingeverything
it's up and down because crypto-currency is unregulated, and highly manipulated.
