Obyte: Totally new consensus algorithm + private untraceable payments

[clovis A.]

Alright, so I've been on the BYTE train since distro #1, last December. Been running the full client, open 24/7, without issue, until about the middle of last month.

Since mid-September, my wallet has been syncing slower than real time and is now about 36 hours behind. It will nearly catch up, only to fall behind again. No transactions were initiated and nothing has changed on my end. I've attempted closing and re-opening and all the usual first steps, but I just can't speed this thing up.  What does one do in this scenario??

Is it possible to convert to a lite client? It's frustrating because now my coins are inaccessible until this issue is resolved. Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance!

I have no idea where i should start when it comes to writing about byteball. I stopped counting how many times it was dumped. Funny enough, its dumps has nothing to do with the current market trend. Anyway, this coin is a real waste of time. By the way, DUMPDROP is coomiiing.....

Oh good, so you're going to sell your GB and stop writing about it?

Nice.  Give me a good deal on your GB then.

I have some blackbytes in my mobile phone wallet. I have full backup for this wallet already.  Would i be able to get my coins if i restore the wallet on my desktop? Little help would be appreciated.

Yes.  Install the wallet on the desktop, and then do a full restore from your full backup.
(Don't use that wallet on both devices at the same time though.)

You could restore your seed on a light wallet but that will leave your blackbytes behind. The only way to move both of them from a full to a light wallet AFAIK is to use a second computer to send your coins to yourself.

Maybe it is time for Byteball to get out of Bittrex...

I just noticed myself that despite being able to deposit and withdraw at will for the last few months, that recently, they where asking for strange questions and they blocked my account for withdrawals this week...

I just managed to buy some Byteball with Changelly, didn't want to risk having my funds stuck in that exchange...  Changelly exchange rate was decent.

They are pruning all old/legacy accounts it seems. This probably caused all those non-verified users to leave the stage. I personally left bittrex as well. I do not trust any exchange having my personal data. To exchange bytes and blackbytes I will have to rely on either cryptox or the bot exchanges that we have on byteball wallet.
Hard time for crypto, guys

Ah - I rather be fully verified. This will make it easier to claim my 100€ worth of dust against all those of you who rather keep low.

Hey everyone! I'm introducing a way to get free tickets in LuckyBytes , with referrals! 💛

This feature is not yet fully implemented but you can already start to invite people to LuckyBytes. As soon as i implemented the feature that you get bonus tickets, it will also count the referrals you already had invited!
I have even more features in mind how to get free tickets, but it will need some more time to implement these!
Check the menu and click "free tickets" on the very bottom to get started!

By the way: Weekly Jackpot is at: 1128 MB

Appreciate it, CryptKeeper!

That I can do, but won't the wallet need to be fully synced to successfully complete the send? I was under the impression that creating a send transaction would slow down the sync process even more.

It's been about a month since I've been synced up, so I don't want to slow this down any more than I have to

Let me know, man.....

peace!

i have hold Gbyte since 2 months, but i dont see anychange or event from you. i want to know when byteball have an update.

An update of the wallet is about to be released.

do you know when they have an update the wallet?

[brian_nguyen]

I think part of the dumping is due to Trex' consolidating for BTC

I guess we would really need some more major exchange. How are prices vs exchange if you change actually with the bot in the wallet?

[Karartma1]

If that's the case, and first of all thanks for sharing, I do hope that Bittrex will go Mintpal/Cryptsy. Such a shady behaviour should be disapproved by all Bittrex users. I personally left Bittrex for good right on time before my old account was changed into a new one. I'll look around for a new exchange.
Goodbye Bittrex

Byteball users should empty their bittrex wallets as well.

[kaltun]

i have some , but i must admit , this coin is not for newby or noob. if you talk about nerd money this is your money then

i regret i didnt sell it when it was high ......


i am gonna hold this for a long time i think

[CorePrime95]

Byteball has more and more quality bots coming. I'm sure the market will realize its potential, even when it takes patience.

Somebody might want to consider creating a BB token on the bitshares decentralized network and developing a bot that could make the process of buying and selling on the network a breeze.

To restore the twelve-words seed, you don’t have the original wallet to be synced. But sending out Blackbytes with a not fully synced wallet could be a problem. I guess Michail1 knows more about it!

It's better than 90+% of the coins out there so it's just fine.

I just managed to buy some Byteball with Changelly, didn't want to risk having my funds stuck in that exchange...  Changelly exchange rate was decent.

Hmm, I did not know that.

I have a different issue with them though, their rates. I usually use the USD -> GBYTE example to show their absurd prices but since you said they use Bittrex, I decided to check it out and this is what I got:



At that time, 1 BTC was $5,596.750000 on Bittrex while 1 GB was $174.606791 which should give you ~31.97GB/BTC with the 0.25% trading fee included. It seems Changelly charges 2x Bittrex's fee (and that doesn't seem to be their only fee) which is not a lot I guess, but, if you're not having any Bittrex issues you might as well get it from the source.


BTW, USD to GBYTE via Changelly is still as absurd as ever:
