Well I used Digibyte for the purpose of this Tutorial if you will, however I do mine it myself for multiple reason.
First of all it can be mined on five seperate mining algorithms. Digibyte has fast transaction speeds. Digibyte has activated SegWit, which is Segregated Witness SegWit offers a range of other advantages and by now the focus of attention has shifted from fixing the transaction malleability to solving the problem scaling etc. Common problems with Bitcoin. Digibyte has an active community as well as developers, If you research it a little you will see what I mean Thanks
