Earlier this year, Coin Rivet interviewed DigiByte’s Josiah Spackman, who said that in 2019 the venture was “going to be really showing the world the security benefits of Digi-ID. I even setup my house front door to be securely opened with my DigiByte mobile app through Digi-ID. It solves so many security issues, and it’s great to see other third-party multi-coin wallet vendors are in the process of implementing it too.”

“We’ll see some popular cryptocurrency exchanges starting to support it early this year and no doubt over time that will begin filtering out to the rest of the internet,” he added.

DigiByte will also be focusing on DigiAssets, and making them easily accessible/issued/traded/utilised from mobile phones. “It’s not enough to just do smart contracts as we’ve seen other platforms do, but you need the five years of “in the wild” and battle-hardened security of DigiByte, coupled with our on-chain scaling. This way when the next crypto-pets game is released it doesn’t bring down the network as we’ve seen happen in December 2017 on other blockchains,” Spackman said.

“We’re also going to see DigiByte pushing forward with our security aspect, we’re going through final testing now, following the creation of a unique hashing algorithm to help secure the network,” he continued. 

“It’s not enough that we’re already the fastest, most secure and most decentralised UTXO blockchain on the planet, we want to keep pushing that forward, breaking the barriers, and challenging the limits, all while ensuring security and safety of the DigiByte blockchain.”
