Why is there no interest in DGB?

[ABCbits]

This was Digibyte right?

Yes, both CoinGecko and CMC state only Digibyte use ticker DGB. But looking at their homepage, there's no indication their focus is privacy or anonymity. So i don't understand why OP ask this question on "Privacy Coins Forum" board.

I've known Digibyte way back from 2016 or 2017 when I first got into crypto, Digibyte, otherwise known as DGB for short, is not a privacy coin nor have anything to do with anonymity, this is coin I was have invested in and held myself.
So, if Digibyte is really the coin op is referring to here, then he or she is in the wrong.

But then again, it's very possible that he may likely be referring to another coin/project altogether, since most of the time, coin abbreviations collide with each other creating some kind of confusion for non holders of those coins, and also worthy of note is that not every coin/project is listed on coinmarketcap and coingecko. So there is the possibility that it's not actually Digibyte op is referring to here, but if it is, then like I said before, he is wrong.

Yeah, it's very old, and also if I'm not mistaken and if my memory serves me right, this coin have been developed in 2017.

It's one generation older, it's from the 2013 wave!
Either way it's a dead coin, more than half of the transactions are generated coins and probably half of the other are miners moving their rewards to dump them on exchanges, another project that didn't go anywhere and needs to be put to sleep!

Let alone to stay away from DGB coins, knowing that I have never heard of DGB coins and this is the first time I have heard of DGB coins.

So we should stay away from some coins because some random dude on a forum hasn't heard of them? Lol!

I can't remember as well that it's a privacy focused coin even years ago. This is very familiar and I was interested on buying that before but then, the narrative has changed a lot and this coin is almost forgotten and the likes of it have the same fate that most of them have been kicked out of the top 100. If it's Digibyte that has this ticker of DGB, it's going nowhere because it's not getting anymore demand that it has got before.

DGB (Digibyte ), an open source blockchain, experienced little growth when it was launched in late 2013, though released in 2014.
I think that one of the reasons DGB project is lacking interest is because of strick regulations on privacy coins, and company has no one in control, it is a volunteer based and global community driven project.
DGB project can come back stronger if the global community engage in some form of promotions through social networks.

DGB was a real star back in 2017, pumping hard just like those hot ICO tokens. But it couldn't keep up the momentum in 2021 when a bunch of new projects popped up and privacy coins weren't such a safe bet anymore with all those government crackdowns.

Right now, DGB's price is still in the dumps and hasn't shown any signs of recovery. DGB believers can keep stacking up at these low prices, but personally, I'm gonna explore other opportunities. There are plenty of other promising and safer tokens out there in the crypto market. I'm not risking my capital on a coin that's not exactly welcome by law enforcement.

I guess guys there are right. It's because of much stronger regulation and other alternatives which look more interesting for people

Bruh, despite losing 95% from its ATH it's still +28724.01% from the price in 2014, you call that little growth?
It went up 20 000 times when it was in its best shape back in 2014!

I guess it's kind of mindset that every bull run, DGB could have been that coin that will have fresh all time high every time. But it's very different, it's a privacy coin and we all know that there is no investment on them unless you are really that early and take profits already.

And that is the main problem with privacy coins, they still serves their purpose to crypto users, but I doubt that they will become the investment platform. Because it's not going to happen.

DGB has been for a since the crypto industry started surfacing in 2013/2014 period. As the years goes bye, new ideas and industries in the crypto system starts coming up and any which doesn't upgrade seems to be left behind. DGB is #57 on the CMC ranking, with a price of $1.2.
If its project team can make advertisement to promote the project, as a project that has been for years, it can take it higher.

     -      This is one of the old coins now in the crypto space, if I'm not mistaken, right? I think this is one of those old coins that shouldn't be wasted; this is just my opinion.
What are the top trending altcoins in the market right now? Let's get on board and go with the trend.

If there are any old coins that should be bought if I'm the only one shopping, for me it's probably ETH, Bnb, Trx, KCS, Matic, Dogecoin, Xrp, and Dot.

Yeah, it's very old, and also if I'm not mistaken and if my memory serves me right, this coin have been developed in 2017. And so with that it has gone thru many phases as well and could have lost the touch from it's supporters.

And that it has no consensus already and previously it's supporters could have been looking at different coins to invest as well. And that is the nature of some of the coins before. We thought that they can exists for a long time. However, investors changes as well and so they look for new and fresh projects to put their money with.

Yes, you're right dude, I saw it for the first time in 2017, I even bought it for a cheap price, I don't remember how much, but when I bought it this same year, after a few months, I made a lot of money on the capital I used. that's why I won't forget that either.

It's just that the hyped thing has ended, I don't know of any update on it at the moment, it seems like it's just a typical crypto asset that can be found in many exchanges that are listed just like that.

It turns out that this DGB coin is a very old coin and has been around since 2013, unfortunately I don't really focus on the DGB coin so I don't care.
Looking at the chart on Coinmarketcap, this DGB coin has a very good chart and has gone up like the Himalayas twice, but unfortunately the price of the DGB coin is now like it has returned to its original price. This proves that these altcoins are indeed not worth investing in.

For the fact that DGB price has gone to a low price level does't mean that altcoins are not worth investing, as you might have observed on the recent Bitcoin bull run, with notable altcoins, there were many altcoins that had created new All time High records between late November 2024 to January 2025. Check the chart to confirm.
DGB was actually affected by regulations issues that caused some investors, even traders to leave the project. Now there are no new Investors to boost the market demands which can improve the price as before. Hopefully, once new investors begin to enter the DGB market, price will start recovering on a gradual process.

We all know very well that Bitcoin has the full heat and control of the market direction, and this do affect the price of other altcoins as well. In every bull run, the entire market takes part in it, though Bitcoin remains the dominant coin, yet atlcoins reaches new highs and make profits for its investors/holders and traders. When the market faces a bear, the entire altcoins suffer it the most, but that doesn't mean at that point of red candles covering the entire market chat, that there is no room for new investors or filling up some bags for the next bull run.

Altcoins are profitable, except one jump into investing in some altcoins at their peak, and expecting new highs, whereas they have reached their highs for the current cycle.

We can chat about the sunny days and the stormy nights, but DGB price is all doom and gloom, isn't it? BTC has zoomed off like a rocket, while good ol' DGB is still chilling at the bottom. Looks like the whales have forgotten all about it!

Now, if investors aren't dreaming of a DGB moonshot, and if those whales have packed their bags and moved on to pump and dump other shiny things, then DGB might just fade into the crypto history books. As an investor, why roll the dice with DGB when you can snag some BTC and sleep a little sounder at night?!
