Any infrastructure that relies on granting access inevitably creates a hierarchy of importance among its users. Direct peer-to-peer interactions provide a way to side-step this issue completely.

Peer-to-peer technology isn’t merely the future; it is the baseline. On DigiByte, value already moves directly between users without the need for accounts or intermediaries. The future is simply catching up.
"Instant finality" is often simply a phrase. DigiByte produces blocks every ~15 seconds on a permissionless network. There are no committees and no coordinators. That is measurable finality. What is enforcing yours?
Back in 2014, hundreds of coins were launched, and almost all of them are now gone. DigiByte, however, is still here. We are still mining, continuously updating, and remain fully decentralized. Indeed, longevity is the most underrated feature in crypto.
DigiByte’s track record stands out. It features more than a decade in production with continuous operation, no rollbacks, and no emergency governance actions. Reliability like that often goes unnoticed until other systems fail under pressure.
While most blockchains optimize for either decentralization or throughput, DigiByte has chosen redundancy instead. This engineering-first approach utilizes five mining algorithms, frequent difficulty adjustments, and ensures no reliance on a single hardware class.
DigiByte is often described as “fast,” but the more interesting aspect is why: short block times, multiple mining algorithms, and a long history of conservative protocol changes. Speed came from design choices, not shortcuts.
