I'm working on translation of newly added strings. Can anybody advise what "key value pairs of data" in below string refers to? Post arbitrary key-value pairs of data into Byteball network. Does the word "key" meaning is as in "cryptographic key" or key as "crucial"? Neither of the two. It's devspeak Here "key" is like "index", see 19 in http://www.dictionary.com/browse/keyOK, thanks. Translation done.

Is the transition bot down for everybody or just me? I get this when trying to chat:
..
The bot works, seems to be an individual problem.. Ok, this happens when I have Tor enabled. If I disable Tor it works fine.

This price collapse becomes spectacular:

Gee, indeed. Could not be less visible probably...

In simple words can you explain how it works? Example in airbnb let suppose that the price for a week is 70000 yen i have to pay this whole amount over paypal or credit/debit card throught airbnb. Right?!
Then when I arrive at the accommodation the owner should give me 10% cashback in byteball in this example this would be 7000 yen in byteball?
Can you confirm it works that way? Thanks.
It's explained here: After the order was placed, or at some other point in the order process, you ask the customer about his Byteball address for receiving cashback. The address serves like the number of a loyalty card, and the concept should be familiar to mainstream customers even though it is a cryptocurrency. At this point, the customer should have already installed his Byteball wallet. When the order is paid, or otherwise finalized, you send us the purchase details, together with the customer’s Byteball address, using our API https://github.com/byteball/byteball/wiki/Cashback-API. If you are handling the orders manually, you can also send the same information by manually filling out the form at https://byte.money. We immediately send cashback to the customer. https://medium.com/byteball/byteball-cashback-program-9c717b8d3173

@ tonych Why no mention of the cashback program at https://byteball.org/ ? One need to dig deep into this chaotic topic to find out about it. Putting some spoiler with the program rules and contact at the main byteball.org page would help to entice more partners. The first post of this topic doesn't mention the cashback program either.

Trading is dying. Seems to be not much interest in the project from the general crypto community.

Just got bytes for bitcoin from airdrop.

1) Can I chat another user's byteball address, or does the user have to send me a pairing code? 2) Can the pairing code be used by more than one person / address? Like, could I put a paring code in my sig line?
1. Only pairing code allows to pair and therefore to chat. 2. Sure. Otherwise we won't be able to pair with the exchange bot. There are 392 people there now.

1. Where should we look for updates on this bot? It's hard to follow this bitcointalk topic as it is quite chaotic. 2. Why is a fee 25kB if byteball transaction costs only 0,5kB?

Keeping the price up by incentivising holders through airdrop only won't work in the long term because once the airdrop ends everybody will dump the coin into oblivion. You better devise something more clever like real usage - that's where the real value of the currency comes from. Tony is working on exactly that by incentivising usage through cashback but it's not easy because it requires merchants and payment processing companies cooperation.
It's not hard to find real usage, for example right now byteball has 18477x less fees than bitcoin and it's faster than ethereum or at least as fast, even ethereum has 166x more expensive transaction fees. You'd be mad not to use this to buy your every day stuff, from groceries to weed (blackbytes). Also, you need GB to rise 66x, that's 21k~$ / GB in order for the transaction fees to go as high as 0.01$ US, one cent. Fastest, cheapest, untraceable and I didn't even touch the P2P, smart contract part. Every altcoin has cheap and fast transactions. That's not enough for byteball to win users over other altcoins. As you can see with Monero and Zcash anonymous transactions are not enough either.

Blackbytes just arrived at my wallet. Thanks! Federal Reserve should do this too, not only to their "friends" at banks but to us, 99%-ers too. The world would be much better. But we will make them irrelevant soon anyway. Can't wait to see how the cashback program will play out. Companies like Bitpay would make a big difference. In the meantime Bitcoin is gaining foothold in Japan:

How many BTCs are linked to the next distribution which is happening tomorrow? A link to see the stats would be much appreciated.

is it possible to make the transition bot to give you a new byteball address for receiving blackbytes? even if i tell the bot my new byteball address it still tells me to send all my bytes to the previous one in order to receive blackbytes! it's really annoying
Why don't you do what the bot asks for?

|

Is there a way to unlink the previous BTC address? I have a new BTC address and I linked it, now I have 2 BTC addresses, can I remove the old one which has zero balance?
No, why would you want to un-link? It doesn't serve any purpose and would be only a burden on Tonych to implement unlinking code. Just keep it linked, it doesn't hurt if it has 0 BTC. The distribution will be over in 3-4 months and it won't matter anyway.

I bought byteball in bittrex and send it to my wallet, its been 1 hour and still didnt appear there?
Check your address at explorer.byteball.org if it contains your bytes. If not, contact Bittrex. If yes, you need to synchronize your wallet.
