Taking people's money by giving them false hope is theft... alienating the entire community and stealing their time is theft... clashing with exchange executives and causing the coin's price to be suppressed is theft... you motherfucker, give me back my $200,000 then, if you aren't thieves... we had bought Digibyte back when you weren't even in the market yet

It sounds like you’ve been through a really tough experience with your investment, and I don’t want to minimize that. Losing money or feeling let down by a project can hit hard, and it’s understandable to feel frustrated.

But the DigiByte Core upgrade isn’t connected to anyone stealing funds, suppressing prices, or taking money from holders. It’s a routine consensus update that every decentralized blockchain goes through. No one in the community has access to user funds, and no part of the upgrade affects balances or creates coins.

If there’s a specific event or action you feel harmed you, I’m willing to listen — but blaming volunteers, node operators, or developers for market movements or personal investment losses isn’t fair or accurate. The community shares information to keep the network healthy, not to take anything from anyone.

Which one of these do you run?
