OByte use DAG as IOTA trying also to use - since years, but IOTA can't solve DAG well. IOTA seems to be the "first" and "big" DAG project, but IOTA isn't a true DLT, because the centralized structure through Coordinator. IOTA will be sold as DLT, but IOTA isn't a DLT project. So is IOTA a simple scam.
I agree that the existence of the Coordinator makes it horrible solution, but it's still a DLT.
Good. I understand. IOTA is a kind of WCLT. (= well centralized ledger technology......) Well.
Me "centralized" won't equal "distributed"...... Sorry.
What's up with Tony these days? Still not caring about what other people recommend and doing only his thing? Project on #262 on CMC, so I guess this must be the case.
...
CoinMarketCap ranking doesn't show any change to these announcement, it has been stuck at #262 since CMC introduced new ranking system for all coins outside top 200.
CoinGecko ranks Obyte on #182
https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/obyteLive Coin Watch ranks Obyte on #170
https://www.livecoinwatch.com/price/ByteballBytes-GBYTEI suggest, that OByte using #1 DAG algo! Yes, OByte is the first working DAG algo. Simple. Blockchain is popular, but don't better. It is then #1 ranking for OByte. Congratulation to all dev's!
Decentralization is spectrum, not binary value.
Open source enables us to improve Bitcoin and many have inspired by Bitcoin to build alternative solutions, trying to fix the shortcomings that Bitcoin has.
Yet, for over 5 years, Bitcoin has preferred ASIC-miners, which has grown so big problem that you have to do it in pools to even have any chance to win a block reward.
And who controls the manufacturing of ASICs - few companies, which products are hard to get in other ways than from those few, GPUs circuits are manufactured by many. Who could buy a GPU and mine ETH? Anyone who owns less than 1 BTC, just go to computer shop and buy bunch of GPUs.
And who controls, which transactions get picked to next block? Mining pools, but it should be individual miners in pool who decide.
All these improvements have been solved on many altcoins, yet Bitcoin is so centralized that none of that gets merged because it's not in the interest of ASIC manufacturers.
Again, not completely centralized and not decentralized, it's a spectrum of many things.
