Obyte: Totally new consensus algorithm + private untraceable payments

[jjacob]

The next airdrop is coming nearer 

There won't be as much volatility / excitement this time around, because the air drop amount has decreased. Fewer people are waiting for the airdrop and getting ready to dump their coins as soon as they get their hands on them.

Anyone here facing this problem of 'Syncing... 11 private payments left' and sometimes 'Syncing... 13 private payments left','Syncing... 16 private payments left'.

This happens to many wallets, I've reported it to Tony, but it's still unclear what causes it.
My wallets work fine while giving this message though.

I was really into Byteball at the beginning, but the first snapshot didn't work for me. So disappointing. Then I just didn't have any more Bitcoins.

I had that myself: kept the message "27 private payments left for a while". Then I updated my wallet, shutdown the system and started it again and the message was gone.
Weird error though

The next airdrop is coming nearer 

It is good for the Byteball holders, but not so good for BTC holders.

What is happening to Byteball is dropping so fast and there is no way to figure out when it will stop. I was shure Bytebaal will be in top 10 this year but I could be mistaken.

I understand.

So, you can try to resolve this a couple of ways as I suggested.

Send everything you can to a new wallet
or
Send me your backup, I fix it, send it back.  (Then do the first suggestion so that I no longer have access to your bytes).

Thanks to Michail.He recovered my corrupted byteball wallet and also recovered 14 GBB out of 17 GBB for me.He is a trusted asset to the community here.

Michail/ChainSmoker: can you explain how you recovered it?

I sent him my wallet backup with 17 GBB. I was getting error sending blackbytes.I don't know what exactly he did but he recovered first 10 GBB then 2 GBB more then 1.75 GBB and at last 0.11 GBB.After that he told me he basically ran out of tricks to recover more so 3.47 GBB are still stuck in my wallet with the same error.I am happy 14 GBB is actually recovered.I have a backup now with 3.47 GBB which are useless as they can't be sent.If someday Tonych gets time,i will send him backup file to look for the cause of the problem.

ByteBall backup 2.6 GB right now
Not bad for one year of existence.

There are a few reasons it happens and just as many ways to fix it.

It gets more complicated down the list.   The error is easily fixed; however, if there is an underlying reason, the problem will return with the next transaction.  This is why I don't tell someone how to fix, cause there could be another reason and it's easy to mess things up worse.

what is the correct sintax to sell blackbytes using the chat bot? it tell me write amount in "MB/MBB" what it mean? thanks

[Michail1]

Michail/ChainSmoker: can you explain how you recovered it?

There are several places in the DB where the data is stored.
Clearing the syncing private is easy to change, but simply deleting isn't enough in case there may actually be payments waiting.
As for the sending with error, it may be trying to combine with a bad item.  So, you can try changing the amount you're sending and the app may not include the bad entry.

In ChainSmoker's case, I had to adjust the DB through trial and error to figure out which entry was causing the problem.  This is how I was able to move out all the GBB except for the single entry.  It's unfortunate that that single entry was made up of the larger 3.47 (actually 3,478,700,000 blackbytes).

Take note that I did not charge anything.  It was only for my personal learning experience.  I could have made things worse.  In this instance, I was not able to recover everything; however, 14GBB out of 17.4GBB wasn't terrible.  It's better than having 0GBB.      ChainSmoker obviously had to trust me with his wallet.

Oh yeah, there was an added confusion when he sent me a backup that was prior to the issue and prior to him having sent out some GB causing an issue with the wallet not knowing of a change address, but that was quickly determined.

You're welcome to send me your wallet.

MB = MegaByte
MBB = MegaBlackByte

Example (a deposit of 1000MBB for sale @0.089 MB/MBB), just type:

D HEREYOURBYTEBALLADDRESS 1000 0.089

You must mean compressed full node backup.  Actually, my full node (synced) in a zip file is under 2GB.

The DB is over 8GB now.
But, a lite client is under 40mb depending on the number of transactions.

Does the Byteball wallet need to be updated? I've been told that it does but the version I'm using (which is the very first one) appears to be working fine for me at the moment...

1.10.1 is the latest.

Many issues resolved over the last few versions.  Like backups, syncing, DB issues.
I find it hard to believe you're working with the first version.

could you please post the link to this version of the wallet?

Hi, when binding the bitcoin of the purse to the byteball, the bot wrote to me that the binding was successful and I have 0 btc on my wallet. But I have about 0.01 btc on my wallet. The electrum pocket. Maybe the fact is that ten minutes before tying to the bytball, I transferred bitcoins from the exchange to electrum?
