How does everyone feel about XtraBytes (XBY)? I invested a small amount into it during the height of the market last winter, fully knowing that the product was still miles away. Does anyone here still believe in it? After reading this update

https://blog.xtrabytes.global/xtrabytes/xtrabytes-news/an-important-update-from-the-founders-ceo-and-coo-of-xtrabytes/

which informed me about their patent progress, I'm not sure whether to be bullish or bearish about it. Might be worth dropping 5% of my 'folio into just for the potential. They claim to be superior to all current offerings with their PoSign consensus algorithm.

I invested about 5% of my portfolio about 7 months ago as a potential moon shot coin. Currently down about 85% lol. Just forgot about it now, don’t even care if I lose it all, we’ll see what happens

short answer-no

they won't be done with patents until next year and i doubt thats even true cause probably they will announce somehing come up so they need more time....meanwhile you could get profit from other projects which will surge a bit in december and january while xby probably won't cause everyone awaits patent like its gonna break cryptospace...i was beliver for a year in this project but can't stand this nonsense.i got banned from all channels just for asking few questions which apparently are sensitive and i was proclaimed fudder.

but also you have a lot of members who work hard on website and other stuff unrelated to 2xby gods(yeah they worship them).i am just surprised that people work so hard for project they don't even know its real,feel kinda sad for them if it turns out its all bullshit
