$DGB is insanely undervalued compared to the rest of the crypto market right now. Literally never been this under valued ever in 11.5 years. Especially with all we have going on with #DigiDollar🤯

I've been in crypto for 14 years. Public sentiment has never been this bad. Went to a tech conference 2 days ago. 0 crypto startups. Not even 1 crypto mention. When I said I worked in crypto people looked disgusted. Rug pulls & scams have totally destroyed public perception.

WARNING: Vitalik says if crypto keeps centering on gambling with no real-world use, the industry will die fast.

$DGB's Digi-ID: a website shows a QR code containing a cryptographic challenge. Your wallet signs it with your private key. The site verifies the signature — no passwords, no email, no server storing credentials. Each site gets a unique key, preventing cross-site tracking.

Most systems are built for transactions. Some are built for people.

Decentralization isn’t marketing for #DigiByte - it’s the foundation. No ICO. No CEO. No company. No employees. No empty claims. Just community-driven crypto secured by code. Fair launch and still growing stronger. 😏

Earlier today, a user attempted to buy AAVE using $50M USDT through the Aave interface. Given the unusually large size of the single order, the Aave interface, like most trading interfaces, warned the user about extraordinary slippage and required confirmation via a checkbox. The user confirmed the warning on their mobile device and proceeded with the swap, accepting the high slippage, which ultimately resulted in receiving only 324 AAVE in return. The transaction could not be moved forward without the user explicitly accepting the risk through the confirmation checkbox. The CoW Swap routers functioned as intended, and the integration followed standard industry practices. However, while the user was able to proceed with the swap, the final outcome was clearly far from optimal. Events like this do occur in DeFi, but the scale of this transaction was significantly larger than what is typically seen in the space. We sympathize with the user and will try to make a contact with the user and we will return $600K in fees collected from the transaction. The key takeaway is that while DeFi should remain open and permissionless, allowing users to perform transactions freely, there are additional guardrails the industry can build to better protect users. Our team will be investigating ways to improve these safeguards going forward.

ReddCoin is more than a digital currency. It enables people to connect, interact, and exchange value. Social payments are a natural part of communities.

Bitcoin’s market cap is shifting from store of value to programmable money. Lightweight chains like #ReddCoin ($RDD) and protocols like x402 enable agent-to-agent micropayments BTC can’t: imagine Mars rovers buying micro-sats for compute, bandwidth, and repairs in real time.

Idea: #Decentralized #identity for astronauts: self-sovereign credentials for off-world operations, signed by a multisig of mission controllers. Governance + safety for beyond-Earth missions. What do you think, @elonmusk?

Secure Sovereign 🚀₿🧡@secsovereign·
Mark Karpeles, the former CEO of MtGox, submitted a pull request to the Bitcoin Core GitHub yesterday proposing a narrowly scoped consensus rule that would allow 79,956 BTC stolen in the 2011 MtGox hack to be recovered and returned to creditors through the existing Japanese court-supervised rehabilitation process. The coins have sat at a single, well-documented address for 15 years without moving. What happened next is a perfect case study in how Bitcoin Core's governance actually works, and it's worth naming precisely. The proposal was auto-closed within hours by DrahtBot as spam and then locked, which is not a bot action. A human maintainer chose to lock it, preventing further discussion on the platform where Bitcoin's code lives. That distinction matters. DrahtBot operates on heuristics that cannot distinguish a thoughtful governance proposal from a scam link. The lock required a human decision, and whoever made it decided that a proposal from Mark Karpeles about 79,956 BTC stolen from MtGox creditors did not deserve to remain open. Then the responses came. Pieter Wuille, one of Bitcoin's most respected contributors, redirected Mark to the mailing list without engaging a single substantive argument in the proposal. Shinobi told him to run Knots, which sounds like technical advice but is a way of saying the proposal is outside acceptable discourse. Matt Corallo provided the institutional cover by explaining calmly that GitHub isn't the right forum for this kind of community discussion, which is a reasonable-sounding position that routes the proposal away from the highest-visibility platform into a mailing list that is lower-traffic, higher-friction, and functionally dominated by people already inside the existing technical consensus. The combined effect is that the proposal is now fragmented across five platforms with no single place where the conversation can build critical mass, and this is the predictable output of a governance structure that imposes maximum coordination cost on proposals originating outside the maintainer circle. Bitcointalk, X, the mailing list, Delving Bitcoin, and the Bitcoin subreddit all have different audiences, different norms, and different signal-to-noise ratios, so the conversation splinters rather than concentrates. Let's be precise about what the proposal actually contained. Mark acknowledged the hard fork nature openly and upfront. He set the activation height to INT_MAX, meaning the code does literally nothing without explicit community consensus. He scoped it to a single, specific, well-documented address with 15 years of inactivity and documented theft. He anticipated the strongest objections and addressed them in the BIP text itself, including the precedent argument, which is the strongest one. That is not a bad-faith submission. That is a more carefully constructed proposal than many changes that have successfully made it through the process. The substantive question the proposal raises is genuinely hard. If Bitcoin makes one exception for compelling reasons, the argument against the next exception is weaker, and the one after that weaker still, and I understand why many serious people will land on no as a default. But the creditors have been waiting since 2011, the coins have sat at that address for 15 years, and the legal framework to distribute them exists and is actively operating. Whether or not protocol-level action is the right answer is a legitimate debate. What is not legitimate is a governance structure that prevents that debate from happening in a place where it can actually build the consensus required to answer the question.

Since the merge request has been auto-closed (I was hoping to see some arguments for/against and chance to talk about this), I also posted this to the bitcointalk forums: #new" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">bitcointalk.org/index.php?topi…
