Obyte: Totally new consensus algorithm + private untraceable payments

[European Central Bank]

why in the earth you would want to get rid of the blackbytes? those are golden

you gotta admit they are pretty obtuse. the manual pairing and backups per transaction don't exactly make it a lightweight option. no doubt that'll change but most people don't know what to do with them.

i have a lot of black bytes as well. How can I get rid of them? Or use them?
Also, have anyone tried to develop a bot for byteball?

Send them to me.  I'll happily rid them from your wallet for you.

Just PM me and I will send you an invite code to pair with me and make it easy for you to send to me.

i continue to say..this is so anonymous that is golden 

[iensu]

or can blackbyte get added to exchanges technically?

they won't be listed on exchanges, as this would interfere with their private character

For the record, there are now two bots that facilitate blackbytes' trading, beeb (which is currently in maintenance) and freebe, the latest trade on freebe is at 0.027 GB/GBB. Check out https://byteroll.com/blackbytes#bots for pairing codes (and more info).

How can the merchant pay with USD?

[ztalker]

If i have in my byteball wallet some coins do i still need to sign it with some bitcoin address or i get new bytes without it?
I mean if you own some and dont wanna move youre bitcoins from exchange then you still partipiate from distibution?

You'll receive 10% airdrop on your bytes. But, to receive Blackbytes, you'll need to link an Bitcoin address by talking to the Transition Bot. That address can be empty.
If you don't know how to sign a message, PM me your Byteball address and I'll get you a signature from an empty Bitcoin address.

[tonych]

Since segwit has been activated on BTC I noticed that the transition bot doesn't work with the new segwit addresses.
If you try to use a segwit generated address you get this message "Only P2PKH addresses are supported".
Are there any plans to address this issue?

No such plans.  Our developers' time is better spent on Byteball.

Thanks to contributions from @Freefactomizer, our sports oracle got a lot better.



Now it also supports MLB, NBA, NFL, and NHL.  You can browse the past and upcoming games and find the feed name for entering into your p2p betting contract.  And with the new contract forms, it takes very little typing to make a contract.  After the outcome of the requested game is known, you'll get notified by the oracle.  Try it.

[tonych]

Version 1.10.1 released https://github.com/byteball/byteball/releases

* Ability to partially recover from seed in light clients
* Visual improvements of contract creation pages
* Improved performance of sending and receiving blackbytes
* Fixed an issue that caused the app to sometimes crash on Android phones with system language set to Turkish (that was tricky!)
* Fixed an issue where Android app sometimes failed to start
* Reworded the light/full choice page shown when the app starts for the 1st time.  In the old version, many users were confused by the names and were choosing "full" without realizing what it is.
* Multiple small bugfixes
* Improved translations

Linux users who upgrade from 1.10.0 will have to delete all files (but not subdirectories!) in ~/.config/byteball/Default in order to get rid of the annoying (but harmless) popup about profile format.  This is because we had to revert to an older version of nwjs to address one issue https://github.com/byteball/byteball/issues/201.  Backup before deleting.

Mac and Linux users please upgrade.  Windows binaries will be added a few days later when I get my code signing certificate.  Android version is already in Google Play.

Windows binaries are ready and uploaded.

[ChainSmoker]

I was having some blackbytes in my wallet.I took a backup before the last airdrop.Today i recovered wallet using 'full backup' option and the blackbytes that i had before airdrop are still there but blackbytes that i received after 7th August are LOST.I was told that recovering though 'full backup' also recovers blackbytes but this doesn't happen in my case  
please someone tell me here how much is 8 GBB worth?I lost 8 GBB today even i restored using full backup. 

[syclone]

So we have one final airdrop for byteball right?   I'm going to send all of my bytes to my wallet for the bonus.  I'm also holding my blackbytes.  Maybe someday they will be listed somewhere.  When's the final airdrop?

Would be awesome if it supported tennis betting, especially with the US open coming starting in the next few days. I guess it's too late.
Good job anyways guys

[hxtxlcb]

the new sports oracle is very clear
If it can provide multiple language support is better more
