This already happened all over the civilized part of the world. Will this happen in less civilized parts? Certainly. When? I don't know, may take some time.

Ha-ha, it is funny how liberal kids react on KYC option, like somebody is going to take anonymity from them, which they never had first of all. This is hilarious )))

To be serious, digital identity on DAG opens up opportunities for many businesses, like decentralized lending and many more. There are situations in business when anonymity is desired, not bitcoin like pseudo-anonymity, but real anonymity. In many other situations though business people value privacy and transparency, which means that business partners want to know each other, but they don't want the rest of the world to know about their deal. If byteball could provide such environment, this could be a real breakthrough.

You don't need to share your private information. Your ID is stored in your wallet, and you disclose it only when you really need. Hash of ID is stored in DAG, and this proves that you have a valid ID.

Finally, a working digital id solution. People are talking about it since several years ago. What took it so long to implement?

Really cool stuff.

A technical question: if I have a multi-signature wallet, do I need to point all devices to same hub?

Shapeshitf is not just a program, it is a business. Somebody needs to manage reserves to make exchange possible.

Обычные провокаторы. Скорее всего, и не россияне даже.

Yes! That is why all crypto space is currently such a big pile of shit. Hopefully, dedicated people like tonych will eventually change this.

I don't fucking care about your fucking poll, I am just tired of all this retarded mbyte/gbyte talk. How amazingly stupid you got to be if you can't understand, that 1 gbyte is just 1000 fucking mbytes!

All this fuss with switching to megabytes is fucking retarded. If gigabyte is too expensive for you, buy less, and don't fuck nobody's brains. It is as simple as buying beer: if 12 pack is expensive for you, buy a single, you fucking retards.

Treating crypto tokens as stocks shares or commodities is retarded, because they are not. Unlike other assets, а digital token has really no value unless it is exchanged for something which has well defined value, like USD, or a car, or a cup of coffее. This is how all these crypto assets should be taxed: at the moment when you exchange them for fiat, goods or services. Taxing every crypto transaction is pain in the ass and this will never work for technical reasons. Making pain in the ass laws will not bring more money into treasury. Laws should be easy to follow.

Выборы ещё через 3 месяца, а клоунада уже началась.

Condolence to US residents with the silliest law ever. Crypto tokens should not be taxed like this, because they don't really have any definite USD value, and many are not even traded against USD. It is when you actually exchange crypto token to USD, goods or services you know its USD value exactly, and at this moment it should be taxed. How IRS is going to audit day traders? This is just not possible technically.

Is it 2018 already??? Oh shit!!!

Happy New Year everybody!

You believe in wrong


Yes, this is exchange who decides what to list and how to list. Tonych has nothing to do with this.

Whom are you asking here? Go and ask exchanges if they are going to change units or not.

If I ran a business, I would never accept bytes or blackbytes as a payment, but I would issue my own private token on byteball and distribute it by giving loans to VIP customers and give different discounts to those who have my token.

This is interesting. Your payout rate is not bad actually.

What happens with these black bytes? Other private coins attracted a lot of interest of community. Now there is a market for black bytes, but not much interest still. Are they any useful for something?

I have a hard time to understand, why do we need fees to prevent spam? Proof of work was originally invented to prevent spam. You don't need a  mining farm to submit transaction. A challenge should be easy enough to be solved by a cell phone or IOT device, but get exponentially more difficult for spammer with every next transaction. There are also other ways to prevent spam, like rate limited transactions (see steem, eos)
