MemberCount+1,

Thank you for expressing your concern and for supporting DigiByte and being active on the forum here. To start off, everyone in the video you saw is working on projects that will directly benefit DigiByte, utilise it as a payment method and help increase adoption of DigiByte in real world scenarios. Many of these projects are not yet public but I can assure you I am not alone and that we really do have several people in house working full time, not to mention others from around the world contributing in many ways.

It is important to make a couple distinctions here. First, we have on going development of the DigiByte protocol itself with the upcoming DigiSpeed hard fork. Some of us internally are working on this process along with multiple other people in the community. It is absolutely crucial and important that the development of DigiByte as a protocol stays open, decentralised and spread around the world. The key to rolling out this DigiSpeed hardfork is timing.

We already have a significant advantage over Bitcoin from a technological point of view. This includes speed, security, network stabilisation and transaction volume capacity. We will be furthering these advantages with the upcoming DigiSpeed hardfork. With all this in mind we feel it is important not to get side tracked and lost in all the technical details & development. Why completely reinvent the wheel when all we need to do is give it a stronger undercarriage to ride on, better lubrication to move faster, and build it from better materials in order to market it to the world in a way they can easily understand and more importantly, easily use.

Take a project like Ethereum for example. Over a year later, $15 million in expenses and tons of hype they try rebuilding everything from scratch and they deliver a command line wallet that is so complicated to use there is no way even your average crypto enthusiast is going to adopt it en mass. This is not to say there is not some potential here in the future with their platform, but the truth is it is much farther away from main stream adoption than Bitcoin and DigiByte at this point.

I have a folder on my hard drive with backups of many coin wallets from 2012-2014 that are no longer around and are completely worthless and have been delisted on exchanges and remain unsupported.  There are only a handful of coins that will really survive the next couple years. DigiByte will be one of them. With that in mind we are focusing on two new platforms that will undoubtedly drive adoption for DigiByte.  We also will be making further additions to leverage the DigiByteTipBot. 

As for not enough DigiByte progress... the last time I counted we were maintaining and had deployed 17 different pieces of software to help support & maintain the DigiByte network. This includes programs written in PHP, Node JS, C++. C #, Ruby, Python, Java and more. Now we are even doing video editing and graphic design (a talented member of our office.)

The second distinction to be made is for services built to use DigiByte as a payment method, security platform or potentially more ( we are exploring some very innovative stuff that can be embedded in the DigiByte blockchain). It is much easier to get developers to work on other projects that utilise DigiByte in other applications. Such as checking out and purchasing something with DigiBytes directly from a stores fitting room. This same technology can easily be adapted and spread among various industries, not just retail sales stores. We have had meetings with some big retailers looking at how they can use digital currency in a real world scenarios just like this. Not even Bitcoin is cracking the physical brick & mortar point of sale in a lot of places. Micro transactions are DigiByte's specialty. We can do them faster, more secure and from anywhere in the world. The vision is there, the path has been cleared and now the building blocks are being laid.

Thanks to everyone for your on going support, the DigiByte community rocks!

Never ever people can be satisfied,   people are asking for a inside look into the Tofugear and digibyte office, What did we get? A look in the office.
People are asking for weekly updates from Jared,   what do we get... Weekly updates..even with videos!
Tofugear it's core business is not Digibyte so offcourse not all the employees are working for Digibyte.
Digibyte always delivers and still you want everything to happen yesterday.... In what kind of business does everybody think they are working with? It's not that they sell fruits or meat or something.  It's fucking high-tech and yes that needs time to develop.

And with the fashion combination.
We can be proud that thanks to Digibyte we have something like this....  I'm getting allot of eyes turning to my store including big newspapers and offcourse bigger companies that are intrested in the omnichannel platform,  Dont forget, I am the Demo/flagship store of Tofugear and everybody i have spoken to asked me, How did you get in contact with Tofugear?    I tell them the full story about Digibyte and they are all amazed and theire mind is blown.

Last week the first big newspaper ( 1.5 million readers every week )
Noted the story,  And yes, They asked me what is Digibyte, Who is Jared etc etc.

So please Membercount+1 , Dont come in here and complain about Digibyte not working hard enough or that not enough people are working on Digibyte.
If we really had 20+ people (Proffesional IT employees) working on Digibyte, the 250k investment would be spend on everybodys paycheck already.

Allot of people really dont know how hard Digibyte and tofugear are working to a succes.
Can you even imagine when a big company with 500+ stores and a big webshop accepts the Tofugear omnichannel platform and they also include Digibyte as a payment option?

@Jared, Awesome job as always and i love the inside office look!

I think it is to much tofugear than digibytes in the process. I hear always tofugear, but I invest in digibyte. With so many employees in the office, that is simply too little progress here. Where does the journey? Digibytes for fashion-store? DigiReport #3 was a disappointment for me. Is Jared alone in project and the other guys are working for tofugear? How many fulltime-jobs are on the digibyte-project?

This contest is 100% community driven! Thank you to Eric & Jumbley for helping put this together. Thank you to those who have donated to the prize pool!  Keep up the great work everyone and let us know how we can be of help!

It's sort of hard for me to post personal replies because - whenever I post - I am acting as the primary representative of the DGB Group.  Based on my personal experience, when people begin things with the phrase "no offense" it means that they are trying to insult you but they don't want to feel bad about it.  So, keeping that in mind, here is my semi-official response.

We have a great community with DGB.  I put up the first 100,000 DGB for the contest and Jumbley and 24hralttrade contributed; the current prize for the August contest is 250,000 DGB.  In addition we've all also put up DGB for a general contest bonus fund - to payout bonuses.  Each monthly contest will include a bonus prize if the winner mines in the official Digihash pool.  I've guaranteed a minimum 100,000 DGB monthly prize for the indefinite future.

Keep in mind that these contributions come from our personal DGB balances.  I don't have huge amounts of DGB.  My balance isn't really anyone's business - but I have fewer than 10 million DGB.  So far, I've contributed between 10% and 15% of my total DGB balance to support the community (excluding my time and my out of pocket expenses).

The DigiByte Group has had tremendous community support, and loads of positive feedback, and great success with our other - and our ongoing - projects (press release, marketing, etc.).  And, I want to publicly thank everyone who has contributed to any of our projects.  We'll keep serving the DGB community because we believe in you and we believe in contributing to building our great community.

I started the DGB Group because I believe in Jared's vision for DGB - and because I believe in the members of the DGB community.  Jared continues to demonstrate his leadership and vision for developing and growing DGB.  The current work he's doing with Tofu Gear is remarkable, and I am thankful to get to be a part of such a great community with all of you supporting DGB.

The DigiByte Knights monthly contests are just for fun.  They're intended to reward members of our fantastic DGB community - for their support - and for their participation in DGB.  Every month there will be a different challenge contest.  Some will have videos, some will have other challenges where members of the community will create or share their own work.  The video, for this month's contest is not intended to be a professional promotional video.

Jumbley put the video together by combining lots of different DGB memes from the past few months.  He did the music himself.  I want to officially, and publicly thank him for his work.

In addition to his time - I had a couple of hours of legal consultations to make sure that we were doing everything with the contests on the up and up - and I put in a few hours to build the page on the site.  But, none of this matters.

It's just for fun and to support DGB.  So, no offense taken.  If you don't want to have any fun, and you don't want to be rewarded, then you don't have to enter the contest.  We've had lots of entries already (just in the past 24 hours).  Thanks to everyone who supports DGB.  And good luck with the contest.

Cheers,

Eric

My cats breath smells like cat food

Seeing how we are throwing around quotes with no proof !

Bytecoin has much better tech.

Hi Everyone,

The DigiByte Group is happy to announce that we have started a DigiByte Knights Challenge Contest.  We will have monthly contests.  Each contest will work to promote or support some aspect of the DGB core services.

THIS MONTH THE PRIZE IS ALREADY AT 250,000 DGB.  It's free and easy to enter.

Here is the link to learn more about the contest and enter. https://digibytegroup.com/project/contest-august-2015/

Let me know if you have any questions.  And, good luck.

Eric

Excited to see the Digibyte and Tofugear office! 

You need to change .bat file in your grs-sgminer folder.
Correct your pool address.
For example -o stratum+tcp://digihash.co:3034
Start batfile.

Doesn't look like it. Your hashrate is zero, and it appears that you aren't connected to a pool (although it is changing pool difficulty which is strange).

If you were mining, you would see several 'Accepted' lines and your hashrate wouldn't be zero. Here's an example:

Does this mean I am mining?

Is that rigth?

Market cap is the total value of Bitcoin. It is calculated based on the total available supply multiplied by the price of each Bitcoin. The market cap of Bitcoin for today is ฿14,418,400.00. It has a current circulating supply of 14.4 Million coins.

Market cap is the total value of Digibyte. It is calculated based on the total available supply multiplied by the price of each Digibyte. The market cap of Digibyte for today is ฿1,222.38. It has a current circulating supply of 4.63 Billion coins.

It would appear that we have run into our first hurdle and that is that if we get people to send DGB to enter, it's not a competition but a sweepstake or a lottery and we would have to deal with possible eligibility restrictions or - in a worst case - possible regulatory license issues. I'm thinking that we could automatically enter any address mining in the official pool, if that is different, I don't know we are looking into that now and will let you all know.
Sorry for hold up but hopefully we will get this sorted soon.

This is a very intresting project and looking forward on how this is working out!
This is very good for Digibyte to support the network with dedicated mining and reward them with Digibytes.

As a start i will ad some Digibytes for the winner!

This seems like a good juncture to mention the DigiByte Knights competition, that will officially launch at the beginning of August.

DigiByte Knights Competition in a nutshell.
Watch the video and count how many times the ‘dancing DigiMan’ appears. When you have your answer, you will need a DigiByte wallet to send 100 DGB to the DigiByte Group address that we will publish on the DigiByte Group site, remember to include your answer in the label.
We will run the competition throughout August and the winner will be drawn from the correct answers at the beginning of September and you can enter as many times as you like.
Now because this is a DigiByte Knights competition, if the winning address drawn is a miner in the official DigiHash pool, you will win double. The prize is currently set at 100,000 DGB, so you could win 200,000 DGB if you are a miner in the official pool. We reserve the right to increase the prize if for example, funds raised outweigh prize offered but we will not under any circumstances reduce it.
Good luck and remember to keep an eye on the DigiByte Group site for details of where and how to enter. https://digibytegroup.com/

When I point my miners to slush I get about 15-20% more BTC, so theoreticaly you better buy the coins with the BTC. By mining DGB you help to secure the network and for me thats worth a couple of mBTC a day. It's short term thinking when we talk about those few percent difference. A healthy coin does not fall from thin air...
