As a true blockchain purist, DMD Diamond's core values ​include complete decentralization. DMD Diamond is a community-driven project with no corporations behind us.

We aim to contribute to the blockchain industry by creating open-source protocols, utilities, and services. By ensuring blockchain interoperability, we aim to increase the viability of the entire crypto universe.

Our ultimate goal is to empower all users with financial freedom and independence by creating a platform that provides a secure, accessible, and profitable smart contract-based blockchain economy.

DMD Diamond appeared back in 2013, when one of the first booms of coins, the main ones on Bitcoin forks, happened.

However, a few months after the project was launched, the original creator of DMD disappeared. The community was unhappy with the sudden departure of the developer, who left unresolved problems.

The fate of the project was in the hands of the community — a small team of developers and enthusiasts gathered together to maintain and develop the code and adjust the vision of the coin.

Unlike most projects that ended with the departure of the founders and the team, DMD Diamond was able not only to survive, but also to introduce a number of new developments thanks to the cohesion of the community.

DMD coin is one of the oldest in the blockchain space. In addition, it has important features that make our coin stand out from the crowd:

• DMD retains its original coin emission model with a fixed mintage
• Our coin is five times more scarce than Bitcoin, with a limited supply of only 4.38 million coins.
• Additionally, DMD is one of a very small number of coins that have survived from its inception in 2013 to the present day and are still actively supported and traded
