Distribution of bytes is finished.
Total distributed: 57,444.473272169 GB.  It's about $19m at the current rate.
New available supply: 583,896.4940036 GB.  Coinmarketcap is already updated.

I'll update when blackbytes are distributed, it is going to take about 3 days.

Distribution of blackbytes is now finished.

The 10th round will be on the Full Moon of November (November 4, 2017 at 05:23 UTC), and the rules stay the same:
BTC to bytes: 1 BTC of proven balance gives you 6.25 MB (0.00625 GB)
BTC to blackbytes: 1 BTC of proven balance gives you 2.1111 * 6.25 million blackbytes (money supply of blackbytes is 2.1111 times more than that of bytes)
Bytes to bytes: 1 byte on any Byteball address gives you 0.1 new bytes
Bytes to blackbytes: 1 byte on linked Byteball address gives you 0.21111 blackbytes

Putting this another way, to receive 1 GB from the distribution, you need to already hold 160 BTC or 10 GB.  These same holdings also give you 2.1111 GBB (giga-blackbyte).

By that time, we'll have more apps in the Bot Store, more cashback partners, and hopefully a few teams will start their token sales on Byteball platform.

Thank you for the update as always, Tony. Looking forward to seeing the Byteball ecosystem growing in the next couple of months. Additional apps and some token sales would be excellent and beneficial. I have the feeling that quite a lot of people in the cryptoworld don't yet fully appreciate or understand what Byteball has to offer, and the more people start building stuff on the platform the more obvious this is going to be.

Tanks you all the things you do。
Chines people likes ByteBall very much。
We don't have a chat tool that's not censored，Now we use Byteball GlobalChat，It's Great。
I hope the developer can make the bot more perfect。

Would be great that Blackbytes Bots could report it's price and volume to coimarketcap like sites or blockfolio like apps

Two exchange-bots and reports :


http://www.beeb-bot.com/

and

http://freebe.byte-ball.com/

The average ratio is around 0.03 GB/GBB.

1 GBB = 8$

[Sarcasm]

I think the byteball price is still very far from the usual? What's happening? 
hopefully the price can go up again 

[GymForVitalik]

most likely, taking into account that the counts have been reduced from 20 to 10 percent and it will not be in the next month, only ideological people hold a coin)

A large portion of my byteballs is from free distribution whereas some I also bought to increase the total numbers of coins. It isn't hard to realize that with coming stuff and features constantly future is very bright. I don't measure potential of any project just because of its market valuation. There are lot of manipulation in every single market so hodling is best policy.

Hey guys, did I get my math right?

You get
- 0.00625 GB for each BTC you link, that's 1.7USD for 4000USD.

And extras if you already have bytes you get 10% more (out of your existing bytes), and another 20% of blackbytes.
- For the bytes you hold on September 6 you receive 0.1 new byte for each 1 byte of your balance
- You also receive 0.21111 blackbytes for each 1 byte

So the ROI is maybe 0.05% per month (0.0425 if you don't count the extras) these days.

The ROI earlier this year was 10x more as you could get 0.5% per month, 0.0625GB per BTC. [1]

[1] if you assume the USD price for byteball and bitcoins were the same as today, at least the difference were the same between the two coins

time to think

time to think

that's not great but all volumes for all coins are way, way down compared to where they were a few days ago.

byteball needs to transition from excitement about the airdrops to excitement about the developments. it's well on its way to doing that.

Hi!
I have a question about distribution. If I have bytes in multiple wallets, do I have link all of them to participate drop or are they automatically in?
I know there's no way to distribute blackbytes in automaticly since they are untraceable, so they have to be in linked address to be able to get drops. But is there a way to link multible byteball addresses with transition bot?

Thank you in advance!

You can link as many byteball addresses as you want.

[DTF]

Can somebody please explain how to get free test bytes to start playing around?

[neurotypical]

Can somebody explain to me the current distribution situation?

This was my first Byteball airdrop ever. I linked all of my BTC, it's 5 figures (in dollars) worth of BTC that I linked. I was excited to receive a nice amount for that. But what do I get? Not even $50 bucks worth of Byteball. Are you kidding me? This is it?

What the hell happened? I was expecting much more than that. At what are are further byteballs being distributed then? it will take forever if such small amounts get spread around. Aren't people that get in earlier supposed to benefit more?

I did read that they changed the model for this term and from now on the people that hold Byteball will get much more than the people that link their BTC accounts. Well, doesn't that make the people that linked their BTC already (and got a lot of GBYTE on the past distribution periods) increasingly rich? they are going to get so much GBYTE because they are already holding a ton. Like I said im ok with earlier people getting a bigger reward but it seems unbalanced, right now we are still early and we got so little with this term that it was a bit depressing to see not even 50 bucks worth of GBYTE after I spent an entire day linking all of my BTC addresses worth a lot more..

Welfare just isn't what it used to be, amirite?

The bot told you what you were going to get and still you expected more?
Reminds me of the bums on the side of the street asking for loose change.  Give them some and they ask, "Got anymore?"

People begging sucks.  If you wanted to get more GB, then you should have bought some as you would have gotten a 10% bonus.  So, either believe in the program and work it right stop complaining when you didn't win the lottery for simply showing up.  Everything was determined a month ago.  Don't act surprised when you got exactly what was expected.

I'm sorry you spent the 'entire day linking addresses' when you could have in one swoop have moved your BTC to a single address or even better.... just simply bought some GB.
You labor efforts are the same as those people spending hours to fill in surveys to get $1.

BTC holders received a lot of money to simply dump.  This has now changed AND no distro next month.  Price will be stable now.
(Of course those dumpers having seen the value drop so much, might now buy back in at these much cheaper prices).

Im complaining because I expected more, I can complain if I want. It was disappointment to link 5 figures worth of BTC and get like 20 bucks.

At what are will one get gbyte now for X amount of gbyte hold? because i heard that that was the goal now, to incentivize holders, well, at least I got 20 bucks, but the ones that did not dump and got into the early rounds are going to be making a ton of money every month with the increased rates I predict.

Well, if you have been here long enough to be a Legendary member, you should know that linking your entire BTC wallet into a single address is a big mistake when it comes to your privacy.
