With the new release, anybody can send money to me using my email addresses:
tonych AT byteball.org
anton.churyumov AT eesti.ee (I'm an Estonian e-Resident and have an email @eesti.ee)

@eesti.ee e-mail owner reporting in. Excellent choice, Tony! Cheesy Although Estonian government is a bunch of gangsters just as every other government, it's still good to know that we're both racketeered by the same mafia now  Grin

Slice&Dice Dungeon v2.0 RELEASED

  • Added character creation
  • Added round-based fighting system
  • Added venture-mode gambling
  • Enhanced QR-code based passwordless authentication
  • Added playmoney
  • Added demo gameplay (click on the spin button without authenticating to try)

Try it here: sndd.io
Game is also available over telnet and SSH:
  • ssh sndd.io
  • telnet sndd.io

Perhaps the most important aspect of this update is that it demonstrates how Byteball wallet can be used for authentication in a very user-friendly way.
All you have to do is to scan the QR code given to you by the application and you will be signed in automatically.
Byteball allows account registration/verification without asking for a password or even the username.
This method is explained in detail here: https://byteballwiki.de/Dev (Byteball-to-TCP Proxy)

If you have trouble using our Bitcoin Cash format (your wallet does not support it), then you can use converter:

https://cashaddr.bitcoincash.org/

Enter our given BCH address there, click "convert" and click on "Legacy".
Now send yout BCH to that address and your EUR payment is taken care of.



Actually there's a bug in your CashAddr QR code generation logic. I also made a reddit topic for this to warn other businesses about this pitfall ( https://redd.it/83ekz0 ).

PiixPay is an excellent service because it does not require account registration and it accepts Bitcoin Cash. Also, bills get paid pretty much immediately.

Just wanted to announce that coinmix.to is really good mixer! I'm very happy with it.
And what it has to do with Bitmixer?


Bitmixer closed its doors didn't it? so obviously people are interested in replacements, so it has to do with this topic quite a lot

Question regarding the Airdrop:
I've moved my BTC to a segwit address (starting with 3..). The chatbot gives me the following response:
Quote
Only P2PKH addresses (those that start with 1) can sign messages. You can prove ownership of xyz only by microtransaction.
My question is: How can I make such a transaction? What is the address that I've to send to?
Has anyone successfully registered a segwit address with a micro transaction and can give me some guidance? I've checked the Byteball Wiki but couldn't find the answer there.


Segwit addresses are not supported because SegWitCoin is not Bitcoin. You have to use a regular Bitcoin address for linking (the one starting with 1... ).

Is this Bitcoin Core?

Basically giving out $12 for verifying your identity. Neat
I expect many new users from poor countries. If it's a 2 day salary I can imagine people doing this.
It is an impressive feature though, I may do this if there's a very good reason for which I need it.

we need to get this info exposed to Venezuela Cheesy

Long term hodlers are idiots? Are you serious? Long term hodlers is the most clever one I think. They avoided themselves from getting into depression when the price of bitcoin is dipping and they can even enjoy their life happily without spending too much time on watching charts and trade. I think they are the most profitable one after ten years time.

Long-term holder since 2012 reporting in. I'm 28 and already in a position where I can live good life and never have to work again, all thanks to long-term holding for 5 years. I started off as a poor IT student with just 2000$ initial capital. Lately been distributing my risks between other asset classes.
71  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: CryptoGraffiti - Block Chain Message Encoder & Decoder on: January 16, 2018, 08:29:07 AM
I totally understand your position and I respect it. It's just a little bit confusing to use BTC until this term is generally accepted to signify Bitcoin Cash.

I might add a small dollar value label next to the BTC value to make it easier for people to perceive the cost of the message.

Another question for you: do you think the blockchain could become a file repository in the future through systems like the one you have designed, or will tx fees always be an obstacle to this?

If the dust threshold gets removed and maximum standard transaction size increased then it would definitely become more useful as a place to store memorable files and proofs of existence. It's only a matter of time those limits get removed because they really have no place in a free market economy. Only centrally controlled communist networks practice such limitations. However, I do believe using the bitcoin block chain for general purpose data storage in the same way dropbox was used is out of the question. It is simply not effective in any way to store low-value files on the Bitcoin block chain. Those files would be available to everyone (unless encrypted), but even encryption can be broken some time in the future which would expose the files to everyone. Also the cost of storage would always be there to discourage saving scrap files and messages on the block chain, which I really like because that way it is more likely that the content you can access from cryptograffiti is somehow meaningful and has some quality. If transaction fees get really low in the Bitcoin network then I might even crank up the message cost artificially to discourage spamming the block chain with low quality content. Ideally, artists and poets would use my platform to publish their work independently.

Alpha 2 is live and well with support for self_encryption and a decentralized DNS. They have their own browser, email app, and way more stuff. It's not in beta though, but they have delivered quite some stuff already. No other project allows you to log in to a decentralized network but MaidSafe provides exactly that. You can also use Decorum to create a coin (without blockchain) and issue 100 million Murgut-tokens and send others 0.0000000034 of them.

https://safenetforum.org/t/project-decorum-wallet-release/18254

So don't fall for all the troll-fud in this topic. MaidSafe is currently opening an office in India where even more devs will work for the company. But creating a fully antonymous network where miners nor any other have to set any prices and limits is quite a thing to do. It's like creating a BitTorrent version without any trackers where all chunks are encrypted and no one knows who downloaded what. And by the way: next to this BitTorrent function they also support accounts and the hosting and browsing of websites. No one has ever done something before with a decentralized P2P-network. All other projects give away your IP-adres and even identity.

you are now using Bitcoin Cash only, right?

Yes

Does this mean that messages are stored in the Bitcoin Cash blockchain only?

Yes

Also, does it mean that when I see the cost of adding a message, expressed in BTC, that cost is in Bitcoin Cash?

Yes.
Bitcoin Cash is the one and only, real and original Bitcoin as we have always known it, so I don't see any point in changing the BTC label into anything else.

Also, another question related to the way your system works. If I understand correctly, you take a message, you split it and then convert each segment into a bitcoin address. Does this mean that someone will receive Bitcoins only because his own wallet address is the same as the one you generated through the above conversion?

This is so improbable that we can safely say that it is practically impossible for anyone to receive those coins. However, cryptograffiti.info allows you to attach a custom payment to your message so that a user-defined Bitcoin address would receive a specified number of bitcoins inside the same transaction that writes your message on the block chain.

I am very happy because now MAID price has reached $ 1 and I expect the price to go up and no dump so it can reach at least $ 10 in March.

don't you get it?! every single fucking shitcoin is going up these days. it means literally nothing if MAID is going up. this is a global bull market, the only sensible thing to do is to diversify into other asset classes.

This coin is brilliant but in order to succeed,

listing on coinmarketcap must be in MBYTE or KBYTE

https://www.coindesk.com/weathering-altcoin-shitstorm-investing-next-one/

"It seems ridiculous to say, but the cheaper the asset, the greater the chance of a return. And when I said cheap, I'm not referring to a fundamental measure of value like a value investor would (P/BV, P/E, etc). I'm referring to its price.

A chart of returns over the past seven days paints this picture. There's a direct negative correlation between the price of the token and return. It's scary, but it's unfortunately true."

"Investors trying to find fundamental value are ripping their eyes out. XRP, with legitimately zero fundamental usage (see below), just passed BTC in diluted market cap."


unfortunately I have to agree with you, which means guys in charge of changing this are acting stubbornly. but on the other hand, this is not for tony to decide. it's not his choice, exchanges and CMC should be contacted individually for this change to happen.

Substratum looks like they are going to deliver. I'm getting very worried about Maidsafe now...

Well, there are people who would disagree, there is an entire thread dedicated to the suspect that Substratum may just be a scam:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2100308.40

Where lies the truth?

I start to suspect the same. Gave a quick look at it, they were created as an ICO (first red flag) and just in last Summer (second red flag), and they want to do something MAID has failed to do in 10 years. Not going to invest. With these kind of overly ambitious projects the best bet is to invest when they have delivered the minimum viable product and proven to the world that they can actually pull this off.
77  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] IPO of MaidSafe:  Entering the Future of the Decentralized Internet on: January 08, 2018, 08:26:03 AM
Seems that MAID never had any idea how to deliver on the promises so they have decided to delay until other projects figure out how to solve their problems. When that happens MAID will just copy-paste the solutions and avoid lawsuits that way.

MAID promised blockchainless tokens long time ago yet for some reason Byteball delivered first. It's as if MAID even didn't try. This substratum thing seems cool, I'd rather buy into it than an old and proven vapurware project.

Just to mention, for the Byteball wallets of all my friends I always instruct them to change the default unit to MB. For the Slice&Dice Dungeon game I also use MB and soon I will probably even switch to KB. GB is simply not a practical denomination. You can say what you want about logic and psychology but GB is not practical! Most purchases made online will be less than 1 GB. Writing that comma is a source of errors. Is it a dot or comma? It can cause trouble. And it is stupid to cling to gbytes.
79  Economy / Speculation / Re: Good news everyone: SegWit may finally be activated with majority support on: December 27, 2017, 04:27:24 PM
because segwit is such a bullshit non-solution. what we are seeing here is the cold-hard truth that segwit did not work, blockstream has failed and should be disbanded.

Well, they could give it just a teensy weensy little try to see whether they actually like it and it makes a difference. The fact that many of the companies who put out the most blockchain use don't even bother to batch is a stupid and depressing stat.

apparently it makes more sense to integrate with bitcoin cash than to implement segwit. it's all a risk/reward ratio you know. implementing segwit comes at a cost. it costs companies money to get it implemented. on the other hand it almost costs nothing to integrate with bitcoin cash Wink

It is annoying to realize that probably 2/3 of the total exchanges are not using segwit wallets only for their own convenience.
That is crap, not even Bittrex who is the major exchange has a segwit wallet integrated.
