If you find bugs, report them.
I have a few minor bugs. I already posted one on Slack, but it could easily be overlooked. I'll post here for reference, and send you a PM too. 1. Error missing directoryOn Linux, when I start Byteball on a new clean user account without ever logging in to the desktop environment, I get this error after setting my device name: Uncaught exception: Error: failed to write desktop file: Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, open /home/test4/.local/share/applications/byteball.desktop This error doesn't happen if I create directory ~/.local/share first. It also doesn't happen if I start the graphical desktop environment first (this creates the directory too). To reproduce:create new user "test4" # never log in as test4 xhost si:localuser:test4 # allow user test4 to open programs onto my current desktop su - test4 /path/Byteball Required fix:Instead of giving this error, Byteball should create the directory it needs. 2. BlackbytesIt's not always possible to send any number of blackbytes. Example: I want to send 50 kBB, but I can only send 100 kBB. I don't have smaller units in my wallet. Required fix:If I cannot send a certain number of blackbytes, my wallet should inform me how much I can send. Feature request:I would like to be able to see what units of blackbytes I have in my wallet. 3. Linux file permissionsThe default file permissions on the Linux wallet are too restrictive: if I save the wallet as root, a user can't use it. Example: -rwx------ 1 root root 842920 Dec 6 2016 Byteball This should be: -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 842920 Dec 6 2016 Byteball All 18,000+ files should have permissions that allows "other" users to read and (if appropriate) execute them. 4. Light wallets don't stop SyncingMy wallets are "Syncing" most of the time now, for more than 36 hours. Sometimes one or a few of them are done, but all light wallets continue "Syncing" again after a while. They all have different amounts of "private payments left". Restarting a wallet sometimes solves it. Screenshot:  Required fix:Syncing should be much faster than this. |

Here's first idea, feedback please.
I'm not so much into designs/themes, maybe you could make it optional: Settings > choose theme? |

- The prices are on my website bitcoinbypost.co.uk The prices change constantly, hence I'm directing you here.
It doesn't really inspire confidence if you mistype your own website... How does customs work on shipping gold? Will there be charges or questions? |

How about you give someone a transaction signed from your cold storage, valid only from a certain block number (5 year in the future). If something happens to you, that person can broadcast the transaction and take your coins 5 years later.
You can provide the address (and private key) it transfers to with the signed message.
If nothing happens to you, you move your coins to another address every 4 years.

do not scam me
If you're legit, it's likely to get scammed. If you're a scammer, well, let's start with that: please sign a message proving you own at least 1 Bitcoin. Sign with: "Today is Thursday July 13, 2017. This is sourabhboss1 from Bitcointalk proving access to funds". Let's continue this thread after you've shown a signature. Just to be sure: NEVER post your private key! |

i linked my main BTC addresses to a byteball address generated offline Does that mean you told the transition bot an address that isn't part of the wallet you chat with? How to learn more about blackbytes? Can you do blackbyte cold storage?
To learn more: experiment! Create 2 (or more) "play wallets" with not too much value in there, and test how it works. Cold storage is not possible, you can only receive blackbytes in a wallet that has been online. I agree with this. At the moment people aren't really incentivized to sell, they will get a 20% bonus on what they hold anyway. so if someone has 1GBYTE, and there are 4 more airdrops, they will have 2.07 GBYTE after the last airdrop, even without holidng any BTC. That means that the price will have to more than half for it to be worth their while selling now, instead of later.
After each Airdrop, the maths changes. Next time it will be a more attractive time to sell, after 2 more airdrops, it will be even better.
I predict carnage after the last drop, but as you say, that is when the true price discovery phase starts.
This can go both ways: despite getting like $60 million per month for free, people are still buying Byteball. If the airdrop stops, there's no free money to dump anymore, so prices could go up. I can only assume Tony thought this through, because so far Tony did very well. |

In de voorverkoop is tot nog toe ongeveer $300.000 opgehaald.

And suddenly a 109btc sellwall on bittex.
I suppose get it while the offer stands?
If you look at the Byteball rich list, this is still not even close to the top. The top gets 10 times more per airdrop. |

So if I'm offline for 5 minutes, and during that 5 minute time period, somebody sends me blackbytes, do they disappear into the ether? No, I've received blackbytes aftter much more time offline. If the blackbytes are received as soon as I come back online, how is that different than if restore the same wallet while offline on another computer (then go online on computer w/restored wallet)?
I'm still not exactly sure how it works. I am going to experiment with it though, and will share my findings. As far as I understand blackbytes, it would be a really cool feature to some how be able to print blackbytes from my wallet on a piece of paper, making it a single-use anonymous paper currency. |

I'm "moving" this post here from the main Byteball thread.
I did my own math on the number of rounds left:
If the rules stay the same (0,2 byte per byte + 0.0625 GBYTE per BTC), and assuming 44% more Bitcoin linked per round, there are 3 rounds to go.
44% might be a low estimate, in the last 2 rounds the amount of Bitcoins linked (more or less) doubled.

Yes, I know that. But I need unlimited or more then 40 character pattern.
Lol. Trying to crack the Bitcoin richlist? |

The fact that it should be made clearer on the countdown page remains. And believe me I made my cut. Even without getting in on the Airdrop. Selling at 32 and getting back in at 23. Pretty good deal. Until next time!
The information is the same for everybody. I think it's totally fine not to give exact details just to make speculation easier. I've seen GBYTE up to 0.355 BTC yesterday, the profit from speculation can be bigger than the 20% airdrop. But that's speculation, and can go both ways. Speculation and holding seems nicely balanced, and in the end both profit. Tony, you don't talk much here, but again: thanks  |

Crunching numbers!
Unfortunately this deal is so good that most people decided to go on their own. I've never made it a secret, of course you can do that and claim 100%. I've lost some customers this month, and only had one new one. That means the total amount linked through me dropped from 48 to 11 BTC.
The Byteball price dropped quite a lot again, it was 0.355 BTC yesterday, and 0.23551 BTC per GBYTE when I sold.
For my loyal customers: if you don't do anything, you're in again next month (August 7).
Payments
Some people responded here in the thread, some per PM, and some per email. I won't reveal who gets and owns what, I will only show the txid of payments: e5241d81e554ffa64327640dbb0503f2918081d120f8b187ef03601cb60232e3.
Feel free to respond here though!
Two people took the opportunity to speculate: I'll sell their share on August 3. I'm curious to see how this turns out for the price.
One person requested payout in Doge. Txid: 42afb3f02f582728fcf20a7e9f164230a642d9c969edb2e8a5926e485419c153
Please stay seated for the next round! Or at least come back in about 4 weeks. I'll update this thread later again.

I've joined the airdrop, using a paper wallet. I couldn't get the wallet installed. Looking back at the topic start, I can't even find what I used to install anymore. I'm confused  What wallet do you guys use? |

is anyone going to be addressing these issues? These 6 people, because of their greed, screwed 324 people out of getting the airdrops they deserved to get. The way it's going now, a few people will end up with the majority of coins. Exponential growth based on an already exponential distribution of Bitcoins means the rich get exponentially more than the poor. What's the point of having a coin that only 20 people hold/use? I think at this point the airdrops need to be suspended until the issue can be fixed to where its fairer to a larger number of BTX holders. I suggest to re-do the initial airdrop with another snapshot at a new day, say August 1, and airdrop more than was airdropped at the first time. It's unlikely more than 1% of Bitcoin gets linked, so it's safe to airdrop 10 BTX per Bitcoin. |

90 day freeze on all new registrations - seriously, there aren't tens of thousands wanting to sign up. When I joined this forum, it was to be able to post. I had been reading before. If I would have had to wait 90 days after signup, I wouldn't be here now. Banned means banned use the IP ban function - that's what it's there for.
Units of Evil are used based on IPs. If a spambot uses many IPs from his ISP, that would mean other users from the same ISP can get a banned IP too. Tor and VPN wouldn't be possible anymore. re-introduce the scammer tag I prefer a ban-tag over a scam-tag. Ban the sale of UID's It's impossible to enforce that. I'd like to see changes to the forum too, but not in such a way that it stops legit users from joining. I would for instance love to see shitposters banned, but it's time-consuming to find them, and a gray area for those who are on the border of being shitposters. |

Recovery will we quick, dumpers will be losers. Don't panic!
Panic? Absolutely not, it makes it easier for me to get my hands on it now The bigger sell-off happens right after the Bytes appear in the wallets. After that, it slowly goes up again. Yesterday the price in dollars was about the same as it was a month earlier, in Bitcoin it was about 10% higher (aka Bitcoin was worth less). So far it recovered quickly each month. |

By the way, price on Bittrex is moving a lot now.
the usual dump after snapshot was taken... will recover after a few days That means dumping right after the 20% snapshot, long before receiving the bytes. I don't trust the snapshot to be that accurate, maybe I'm wrong, but I'd like to see my bytes first 0.25 BTC per GBYTE now on Bittrex. |

... Which is why ChipMixer will not refund.
Good explanation, this makes perfect sense to me. So i'm wondering as well - what if someone decides to frame Chipmixer by saying that they got hacked/chipmixer did an inside job when they really just sent the bitcoins to themselves? there would be no proof either way, but the guy can do this under multiple accounts and then people will say chipmixer is a scam. There is nothing any site can do against this. You can say any exchange, casino or other site gave you a deposit-address and changed it right after you deposited. The site can't prove it isn't true, while you could screenshot or even record the whole action with a simple "inspect element > change address" in your browser. You can only be sure a site has no interest in doing so, as it earns more in the long run being honest. |
