Anyone here tried moving from a full client to a lite client in their machine? Is there an option in lite client to restore the wallet from a full backup made in a full client?

Any use case for blackcoin byte
unable to find any exchange to sell it

I guess there are decentralized markets for it in the wallet itself. Go to the BotStore.

Hello! I'm trying to start using the Byteball wallet, downloaded it both on my Mac and Windows 10 PC, but it only starts syncing for around 1 minute and then shuts down (I chose full chain download). Please, help me with this issue. Thank you

Please try the light wallet option because in Byteball a full wallet hasn't any advantage for users, it's mostly for developers.

This is something I?ve never really understood: what would happen if EVERYBODY would just use the light wallet? Wouldn't the stability of the network not put in danger?

Are you talking about the price? We have lost some value today and over the past few weeks, but that is no reason to worry.
It is just a reorganization of holdings which is taking place.

Who would invest in this coin except players?
Serious investors?

Without a roadmap, no investor knows where the journey is going (and the developers themselves probably don't know either).

The community also sees this coin as nothing more than a non-performing income. It is completely irrelevant that this currency should have any utility value.

[byteball3r]

Every week about 4% of the bytes in circulation are changing hands. I suspect that in the next few months, the price will stabilize and major sellers will run out of bytes. I second Seeder's call for a roadmap and a newsletter would be great too.

As far as I know there is no airdrop this month, am I right ?

Yes

And whats that gonna help? dump will happen one way or another. Research explorer and look for yourself that big holders from top 100 didint dumped. so most likely noobs and weak hands dumping  like crazy.
dates and random airdrops not going to help.

Partially agree.  I keep moving up the list (not in the 100 though).  So, some people in the top 100 are moving, but I noticed several addresses are just splitting funds.   

I think you're right that most didn't dump.  Likely the noobs and weak hands.     

Agreed.

What is the latest version of the wallet? Is it v1.10.1?

Yes

The issue is known and there is a fix proposed for the next version.  There is also workarounds; however, the suggestion of using a lite wallet is best.  (Unless you have a specific reason for a full node.)

Anyone here tried moving from a full client to a lite client in their machine? Is there an option in lite client to restore the wallet from a full backup made in a full client?

Yes, there are several ways to accomplish that.
No, you can't directly restore from a full node (full backup) to a light wallet; however, you can restore from seed to a lite wallet.   This will convert to a light wallet, but only the bytes.  In order to move the blackbytes, you will have to move them from the full node wallet first to a temporary wallet along with some bytes to pay for the transaction to move them again to your newly restored light wallet.

So, are you going to sell me your bytes.  Seems like you don't want them.

Wow, this was unexpected! Very promising companys are joining this project.

I'm early adopter and will hold my GBYTES forever 

Keep up the good work

@ 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.

[Milquetoast]

My Full Byteball Wallet is syncing very slow, since 09/17/17. How can I resolve the problem? Can I convert my Full Wallet to a light wallet without losing by Blackbytes?

Why should I do that? There is a good chance that something will come of it.
However, I will not change a single €uro to Bytes. As much as I'd like to.
As long as the developer fails to make this coin applicable, I will not do that. And I'm certainly not the only one who thinks so.

The "merchant cashback program" is not only laughable, it is in particular an invitation to cheat.

But your statement also shows the general lack of criticism of this community. For me the main reason why the success of this coin is a long time coming.

Meanwhile, the competition continues to grow unstoppably....

You could have used the same exact words for Bitcoin a few years ago: let's be clear, I am not comparing byteball and bitcoin here, they are too different in many aspects even though they have some similarities. I'm only saying that, given the fact that this coin is one of the best non-copycats that we have out there in the crypto world, maybe we have to wait a bit more to see its true value unfolding.
Most of the holders got their bytes for free, what do you guys expect? Of course who buys wants to understand very well what this coin is for.
I'm not the one who will explain the coin features here, they are in plain sight on the OP and on the main internet site.
I only say that we still need to wait for the complete distribution of bytes to have an idea of the real value behind byteball.

As always, these are my two personal bytes.

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.
