This video is not like a typical video, and not everyone will appreciate the in-depth look *against* things that we discuss.
Although not all "doom and gloom", this is not intended to be a super duper positive, huggy kissy feel-good video. The idea is this looks at the negatives and reasons why DigiByte would not want to do an algorithm upgrade, as we look at a pros and cons list I quickly put together:
https://medium.com/@josiah_digibyte/pros-and-cons-of-digibyte-algorithm-upgrades-in-2020-af399eacef96
This provides the community at large (myself included) with more information and food for thought about why we would upgrade, which algorithm to replace and the likes, and allows you to draw your own conclusions at the end of this all.
So have a nice read along. You don't specifically even need video for this if you'd rather audio-only, but I hope at the end of this you come away more empowered understanding why an algorithm upgrade would take place, along with your own thoughts and ideas about which ones could / should be replaced.

Where we catch up with Josiah and Dereck about what's been going on with DigiByte lately. We talk about Digi-ID and what to expect on May 11th, why Josiah hasn't livestreamed in a few weeks (Hint: He moved house), and we'll go over what got Dereck so interested in DigiByte and a little bit about him and how he's been helping the DigiByte community
The original Introduction to DigiByte we mention in the stream:

Apologies for being 2 minutes late this morning, it seems there was some extra steps we had to take to "start" the stream because it was a scheduled event. We know for next time :)

In todays DigiByte Update, we take a look at the Crypto Campfire Podcast with Laura Taylor, a great podcast and well worth checking out:

DigiByte is also being de-listed from Bitbox, so I talk about these "standards". There's been two trades for DGB in the last month so it's sad to see that another smaller volume exchange is de-listing DGB, but looking at the likes of LTC / XRP / BAT, they all have similar volume.
We do however have a fresh new listing on Uphold which is super cool to see, so you can go and grab the app and get using it right away:

Also, join me in welcoming Ploenne to a more direct / active role in iOS development, and let's thank Yoshi for all the hard work that he's put in to iOS + DigiAssets + SPV Core etc as he's now going to look to focus more on the Core Wallet 8.19 ?

DigiByte is a decentralized blockchain, anybody can contribute in any way they see fit!
You don't need to be a programmer / developer, and you don't have to have your face on YouTube if you want to remain anonymous. You can just do whatever it is that you're good at, contributing in that way.

Todays DigiByte update looks at the latest iOS TestFlight that's currently in the "Dev-only" mode, it'll be going public in a day or two no doubt for further TestFlight feedback but I just wanted to let everyone know that it was being worked on and we're including a few other fixes there in terms of the speed of sync and more as well. Big thanks to our devs for all their hard work!
DigiByte and Friends episode will be a couple of days out, stay subscribed to get that video when it drops coz it's going to be a fantastic one looking at CoinFlip, the drama there around their lack of KYC / AML, being complicit in users being scammed out of money and more! However it's a super positive look at what we as a broader blockchain community as a whole can be doing to improve this space.
