An awesome move from stellar! Be a part of distribution and don't forget to subscribe to their mails and keep the note of the distribution dates. Both BTC and XRP holders will be able to claim their stakes in Stellar distribution. A good example set by the team of  Stellar in this age of ICOs!

Byteball  

Airdrop takes place every full moon


The snapshots for the 4th round will be taken on the Full Moon of April, on Apr 11, 2017 at 06:08 UTC.  This is what you receive:
BTC to bytes: 1 BTC of proven balance gives you 62.5 MB (0.0625 GB)
BTC to blackbytes: 1 BTC of proven balance gives you 2.1111 * 62.5 million blackbytes (money supply of blackbytes is 2.1111 times more than that of bytes)
Bytes to bytes: 1 byte on any Byteball address gives you 0.1 new bytes
Bytes to blackbytes: 1 byte on linked Byteball address gives you 0.21111 blackbytes

aren't airdrop a away to giveaway for free coins, because they removed the giveaway on bitcointalk? it sure this must be the reason, they are ok if they are not pure pos, because pure pos with airdrop is bad, people will dump in the exchange and forgot the coin which will die quickly, if they have pow they can be good, i'm following picoin project the dev is active and he is thinking of adding new features in the future

I love airdrop because this is much better than ico and can easily get community support ,the only downside is people dump their coin at the earliest exchange,airdrops are good if you want to get your coin listed via voting on voting supported exchange,because those bounty hunters will help you to get the coin on exchange ,so they can dump their free coins.

UR


The 2,000 UR from part b) above associated with a new user A are distributed as follows:.
60.60 UR to the person B who directly referred the new user A.
60.60 UR to the person C who originally referred B.
121.21 UR to the person D who originally referred C.
181.81 UR to the person E who originally referred D.
303.03 UR to the person F who originally referred E.
484.84 UR to the person G who originally referred F.
787.91 UR to the person H who originally referred G.

My first time here :D Do I get this correct: 1 GBYTE is currently worth (https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/byteball/) $70.70, so owning one Bitcoin gives you $4.42?
So someone who owns thousands of Bitcoins can cash in quite big?

Yeah that is the downside of the distribution of some airdrop in my opinion.  Only the rich people can become richer especially those giveaway that is based on the BTC holdings in their wallet.  Though PI is quite different but byteball and lumens are definite fall under the category I am talking about.  UR is quite tiring since we need to refer people to get bonuses. Something like multi level company.

Yeah that is the downside of the distribution of some airdrop in my opinion.  Only the rich people can become richer especially those giveaway that is based on the BTC holdings in their wallet.
I saw indeed that 1 Bitcoin address alone gets 8% of the airdrops.
Looking further into this, I don't think the "value" says anything: it's 24h volume is very small, and only one very unknown Polish exchange offers trades. It doesn't seem to work properly either.

That being said: some airdrops in the past have been very profitable for people joining them. Get coins, keep them, wait, and if the altcoin gets pumped very high, you can cash out! That brings me to the next question: how to keep those wallets? I'm now using VirtualBox for ByteBall, I don't want to run unknown software on my system. If I add 10 more like this, these 10 VirtualBoxes with almost worthless altcoins eat up more space than the entire Bitcoin blockchain. My laptop doesn't even have that much space left.
What is a good way to keep the wallets without any risk of compromising my system? It wouldn't hurt to join some airdrops just to look back at the wallet a few years later.

I would advice to move to the light version of the wallet (you need to move your funds if you're currently using the full version) and then use the 'full backup' function. This backup can be compressed and encrypted and can be stored easily, e.g. on a cloud service. For a light wallet the backup file is a lot smaller as for the full wallet. Keep the password for the backup somewhere safe.

As a fall-back option, write the 12-word seed of the wallet on a piece of paper or in your password manager. Please take notice that the seed can bring back your bytes but not your blackbytes (due to the private nature of this asset it's technically impossible to restore your blackbytes from the seed alone).

I tried this, but ran into some problems. First, it ran out of memory the moment I clicked EXPORT, and crashed. After adding more memory (now 4.5 GB) to the VM, it crashes after a few minutes of "Exporting...| with this message: "uncaught exception rangeerror array buffer allocation failed".
I think it still runs out of memory, what is it doing that requires several gigabytes of memory?
With a bit more memory it works now

The final backup-file is 533 MB compressed. I assume this includes the full almost 2 GB byteball.sqlite.533 MB is a bit big for a wallet with 1 address and 0 transactions.
This also means I can't switch to the light version, right?

I'm not importing it into a light wallet, but after an hour it still says "Importing...". It's not doing much on network or CPU, it may be stuck. Very nice that the wallet allows for a chat that allows you to pay in chat, but the basic functions don't work the way it should.

I'm leaving this error messages here for search engines to pick up on it. I didn't find anything related to Byteball when I entered the errors in Google.

Maybe they should limit the input amount on each address to 1 bitcoin or something similar.

You can only restore to the same type of wallet as your source wallet. That's why I wrote that you must move your funds using two devices: one with the original full wallet and one with the light wallet. Sorry if I wasnt clear enough on this.

I can't do that: My Bitcoin addresses are tied to that full wallet for all future airdrops.
I can still fix this :D

If you try to link the same Bitcoin address to multiple Byteball addresses, both links are ignored.  If you did this by mistake, link another Bitcoin address.
I'll just move the coins to another Bitcoin address and hook them up to a new account on my light wallet.

I have been looking for a thread on free coins and thanks for creating one here. I am expecting that this thread can generate more interest and activities...who would not want some free coins, right? Of course, not all coins can hit the ground running but out of I think 5 coins we can expect one or two to go ahead and reach its planned potential. Happy free coin shopping, everyone!

5 days left to get into the airdrop. I joined this one because it seems to have a talented dev and great idea.

Fair distribution, all alt accounts will get removed so don't bother joining with your alts.

sometimes you need to visit announcement thread to see if there are new airdrop ongoing if you dont do that you will late to know it . other than that you can also join the link given above join before the airdrop end.
