maybe the dev can buy the coins  .

The guys who made the $250k investment can easily pump price to 500 sat without it even causing a dent to them. Why you think a lot of asian miners mining this coin.

Is there any transparancy about the $250k investment? Is it possible to reveal the private investment to 5 honest and trusted DGB people (i would nominate halinyo, HR, tamilee, o0o0 and Verias) with a non-disclosure agreement?
I hope i have enough trust and honesty to say that the investment is real and you believe me. Nothing to say more or less. i´m sure that 90% of the community will back me up on this one.

Well...

Think logically, Jared has an office in Hong Kong and a crew of employees, how is he gonna pay all that?

Last time I checked -it was some months ago, I must admit- he was supposed to also have an office in Santa Monica, California... One without a phone number, to be precise...

But since apparently I would have earned my "payment" already, I'll leave you to discuss things among yourselves, ok? Remember: "... further and further".

Guys could we stop being unfriendly towards Barabbas. You sound like a bunch of high school bullies. Grow up and have a civil discussion. Instead of laughing at him.

Hey, if at this stage in the game you are still capable of laughing, then you deserve quite a bit of credit... pity it won't be money credit though...

Simply unbelievable...

Like I told everyone here months ago: Run, don't walk, from this thing...

But since you just choose not to, have what you so fully deserve. In spades.

If you can only spread unfounded negativity, then you won't be missed. Goodbye and farewell.

Good for a laugh anyway.


Looks like he got paid to fud here as well Smiley who paid him !!!!

Funny, indeed.

I am open to offers though... just not to be paid in DGB!

Transparency & Integrity
. . . (i would nominate halinyo, HR, tamilee, o0o0 and Verias) . . .

You might know us better than we know ourselves, and human nature too, and I'd have to say that that looks like a pretty good list if only seen from the point of view that it would be impossible to get us to agree on anything that wasn't completely undeniable to begin with!  Grin  

On a more serious note, I say they're all good questions, many of which have been gone over at length (they don't become mute just for having been dealt with before . . . it is a lot of reading . . .) and which I see EPLDCC has addressed as well.

I think the transparency issue (not limited to DGB by any means) is one that we'll be clamoring about for a lot of years to come (everywhere in Altcoinland) and there will always be limits as to how much can be disclosed and when, and, in the end, sometimes we need to trust in this supposedly trustless environment.  Wink

Also: Great to see the open discussion continues to be lively. I for one am reading everything, enjoying myself as I do, and I like the ideas and the things I'm picking up. Thanks!

Digibyte should follow in the footsteps of Guldencoin and reduce supply untill there is a market for Digibyte

Hi b1007.  I think that Guldencoin is a good coin (although I don't hold any).   I think they have a good, honest, and dedicated community and development team.  I've always thought that there was great opportunity for altcoins with strong national identities.  As much as I think there are great opportunities for DGB in different ways.  The supporters of Guldencoin who also post here are thoughtful and respectful.  And, I hope for the best for Guldencoin.  There are some differences between Guldencoin and DGB ... so I'm not sure that either coin should follow in the other's footsteps.  I think it's possible to support both without needing them to be the same.  I would also say the same thing about Noblecoin ... I know there are a number of people who support both Noblecoin and DGB.  I believe that our communities make each other stronger - but that doesn't mean that we need the development, distribution, etc., of the coins to be the same.

You also asked for transparency about the $250,000 investment.   And, you asked if Jared would disclose the details of the investment to trusted members of the community.  I guess I don't quite understand what you mean?  Like, are you asking if he'll send them a copy of the check so they can tell you it was real?  I don't believe that it is Jared's responsibility to disclose his private business details with anyone.  Buying a few DGB or mining DGB does not give any of us the right to demand or expect that Jared share his private business plans with us.  Jared is one of them most engaged, dedicated, and professional devs of any altcoin.  I think he already pretty much sets the bar in that arena.

Jared disclosed the basic information of the investment to the whole community in late 2014.  He, and the DGB development team formed a strategic partnership with Tofu Gear in Hong Kong.  One of the first things they did is release an iOS wallet in the Apple store.  They have been working on the DGB Gaming (the DGB Gaming Wallet is currently available). And, as I understand it, those are just the beginning.  They are working and developing.  There are some really exciting opportunities and projects for the future of DGB.

I will contact Tofu Gear by the end of this week and confirm the arrangement to settle everyone nerves, if I was Jared I would not have disclosed this information if it wasn't meant to get out it just creates unnecessary hype.

★★ DigiByte ★ 极特币★★ [DGB] ✈ ✔ $250,000 Private Investment Received

I would change the heading of this ANN.

Why would they change the heading?  The partnership is with Tofu Gear?  They didn't make the investment. 

I'm not sure that you appropriately used the word "everyone" in your post.  There's one person demanding something that doesn't need additional proof.  I've been a member of this community for a long time.  I believe strongly enough in DGB that I spent my time and money to found the DigiByte Group.  I believe it's a great community because we respect each other and we work together to support DGB.  But, part of that respect extends to the development team. 

As a community, the development team does NOT work for us.  We, as a community, work WITH the development team.

You all have no right to be accusing Jared of lying about an investment and demanding the kinds of information you are asking for.  There is no evidence to suggest that he has ever misled the community in any way.  In fact, all the evidence demonstrates that he is honest, professional, dedicated, and one of the best devs out there. 


Perfect response.
Completely agree.

And me!!

Seriously? People are questioning Jared? Man, I don't even know if there are more honest people in crypto than him.
And what 's the point of buying up a coin with the investment? I don't think that's the purpose of an investment....


I agree 100% as I stated in my previous post.  No questions about the integrity or honesty for any of the DGB development team.

1) DigiByte block timing will increase from 30 seconds to 15 seconds.

Don't you mean decrease? When do you expect it to be ready Jared?

Hi Altcoinfanatic,  You've asked a lot of questions recently.  I'm sure that Jared will address them the next time he has a chance to respond to posts.  Welcome to our discussion.  I'm going to do my best to answer a couple of your questions:

The Digispeed hard fork was announced earlier this year.  They are working on it.  It is complex and Jared has stated several times that they are taking their time to get everything right.  There is not yet an official date for when it will be released ... I'm anticipating late this year early next year.

About the language in item 1 of the Digispeed announcement.  "DigiByte block timing will increase from 30 seconds to 15 seconds."  Because there will be more blocks per minute I think it's fine to describe it as an increase.

If you look at item #5, it clearly states that the DGB rewards will stay on track.  In other words, the overall mining rewards will not change.  I assume if there are more blocks - at a greater frequency - the mining rewards per block will be reduced proportionally.  For instance, if there are twice as many blocks per minute, each block has half as much reward, but the overall rewards stay the same.

I'm not really sure how to answer the question about the mining rate doubling up?  DGB is a great coin to mine.  I suppose ofter the DigiSpeed fork, maybe the mining rate will increase.  However, technically speaking, the numbers of miners is not related to the block timing.

A little history about the node map and digistats:  In early spring 2015, esotericizm began working on the node map.  It was a project that he was working on in his free time.  Then, in late May people began work on the  DigiStats site.  Esotericizm also was part of the team working on DigiStats.  Therefore, they decided to include the node map in Digistats instead of having 2 different sites.  Digistats launched (officialy) about 2 weeks ago.  HOWEVER, at the time of the launch, they made an announcement that the node map and certain aspects of the block explorer were not fully implemented, and would be finalized soon.

As a result, the node map on DigiStats indicates that there are 14 active nodes.  But, it's not accurate.  It's not fully implemented.  There are way more than 14 active nodes.  It's hard to say exactly how many nodes there are right now ... but the number was right around 3000, or slightly higher.  

I have nothing but respect for the guys working on DigiStats.  It's a huge project and requires enormous development labor and upkeep.  But, just to be clear, the current node map on DigiStats is not accurate.  So, your friends who are telling you that there are only 14-20 active nodes are using bad information.  If I could give you an exact number, I would ... but, I think it's safe to assume we are still around 3000 nodes (give or take), and I'm sure that DigiStats will be a great long term benefit to DGB.

You also asked for transparency about the $250,000 investment.   And, you asked if Jared would disclose the details of the investment to trusted members of the community.  I guess I don't quite understand what you mean?  Like, are you asking if he'll send them a copy of the check so they can tell you it was real?  I don't believe that it is Jared's responsibility to disclose his private business details with anyone.  Buying a few DGB or mining DGB does not give any of us the right to demand or expect that Jared share his private business plans with us.  Jared is one of them most engaged, dedicated, and professional devs of any altcoin.  I think he already pretty much sets the bar in that arena.

Is there any transparancy about the $250k investment? Is it possible to reveal the private investment to 5 honest and trusted DGB people (i would nominate halinyo, HR, tamilee, o0o0 and Verias) with a non-disclosure agreement? I do trust Jared but somewhere i am also afraid that this investment is a fairytale. If it is not real, it does not matter but do not use it as a marketing point. Just be transparant. Please Jared?
I would believe the 5 people i just mentioned.

I would be up for it, however you can trust Jared. Thank you for your trust on me.
I am not sure about the 3k+ nodes. However, that could be possible using some trick.

Cheers.

I thought the investor was listed on front page. I see it's not. I need to read more carefully.  Who is the investor?
