⛏️ Today is Mining Monday — DigiByte ($DGB) is one of the most decentralized Proof-of-Work mineable blockchains on Earth. 🌎 Unlike Bitcoin $BTC, Litecoin $LTC or $DOGE, DigiByte uses 5 independent mining algorithms instead of just 1: SHA-256D · Scrypt · Skein · Qubit · Odocrypt Each algorithm contributes roughly 20% of new blocks, keeping the network balanced, secure, and globally distributed with a real time difficulty adjustment system called DigiShield. ⚡️ This multi-algo design, launched in 2014, allows a wide variety of miners — from ASICs & GPUs to FPGAs — to participate together, creating much greater mining hardware diversity. Why it matters: 🧩 No single group or hardware type can dominate the chain ⚖️ Block production automatically balances between algos with DigiShield 🌐 Global decentralization — more miners in more places using more hardware 🔒 Higher network resilience against 51% attacks DigiByte is now the world leader in Skein, Qubit, and Odocrypt hashpower, demonstrating real-world Proof-of-Work innovation that few blockchains can match. And yes — even your old Bitcoin miner can help secure DigiByte using the SHA-256D algorithm! See the live algo distribution here 👇 🔗
