OK. I've had it up to here with the talks of getting on exchanges and market speculating and whatever. (not just DGB folks, the whole crypto community in general and sometimes even me) There's a billion flippin' coins fighting over a tiny segment of the population over and over and over and over and over again. Enough!  Angry

The team did something very clever by making Digibytetip work on LinkedIn. I don't know any other coins that have a flag in that space and it's arguably the most professional (English-speaking, I suppose) social network out there. Anything that works over LinkedIn can ride on the site's respectability. If you're really interested in making DGB fly, here's my suggestion.

Get yourself around $30-$50 worth of DGB and pick 6-10 people who have endorsed you for a skill. Send each one $5 (or Euro or whatever) worth of DGB - enough to get an Amazon card from eGifter - with a thank-you note for their endorsement. Of course also include that you can help them redeem the DGB (via Shapeshift) if they want. These are people who know who you are, trust you and will likely to be happy to get a $5 gift card. More importantly, they're people no one else is likely talking to. We can fight over exchanges and prices and such all day or we can step out of this little cryptobubble we all live in and find a much bigger world to introduce to DGB.

This is an excellent idea. It makes more sense to market to the people who will market to others. Most users of LinkedIn are professionals and understand the need to carefully target your resources where they will do the most good. Get DGB into the hands of the "shakers and movers" and the rest will come of it's own accord when the time is right and the market is ready. Oh, and a quick note to some of the participants in this forum who are overly concerned with every little price move: Don't be! The price will go up and down as the market fluctuates, get used to it, live with it and, don't worry about it.

Over time, if all remains on course, the trend will will continue upward in the long run. No need to panic on every drop and celebrate every rise. Look at it on a monthly average scale, you'll feel better....
