Obyte: Totally new consensus algorithm + private untraceable payments

[CryptoAlphaStar]

Is there exact block number or exact time when the 4th November Snapshot will happen? And also, how many bytes will be distributed?

November 4, 2017 at 05:23 UTC, depending how much linked BTC (http://transition.byteball.org). and GB.

The snapshot is the first block solved after the full moon.
It was always fun to watch the idiots that couldn't read try to play the market by dumping their bytes seconds after the full moon thinking they were going to beat out everyone else in dumping.  Then only to find out the bitcoin block wasn't solved yet so they lost out on the 10% bonus.  They then came here and slack to complain they were screwed.

I can't wait for the next distribution to happen to laugh again.

So, the snapshot is the first block after the full moon.   Wouldn't it be funny if this was changed to the second block or if there was a reorg on the bitcoin blockchain?

That's exactly why I asked - to avoid being one of those idiots. Thank you for the explanation. This is really an interesting distribution scheme.

I dont care about the price. Now its a great opportunity to accumulate more and then get more bytes through the airdrop! Think longterm byteball is a gamechanging technology and its time will come! 

[Karartma1]

You don't care about the price but it is finally going up a bit after one month of utter depression!
good to know that tonych will go to a conference, the crypto world needs to get to know him

Very good update by the way!

[MurrayRothbard77]

Byteball moving in the right direction. That is great that Tony will be speaking at the conference! We have had enough gloomy months, things can only get better from now on

Version 1.11.1 released https://github.com/byteball/byteball/releases

It fixes a bug when single-address wallet didn't keep the promise of single address in some circumstances.

Also, the human readable display of smart contracts now names the peer address as just 'peer' to make it easier to read.

This update is very good, but not enough to gbyte up faster. I bought it more 3 months ago as price 109xxx, now it is 037 , lol

I had to replace my drive. I want to do a fresh install of my operating system.
Is there a procedure to save the wallet? I read to be careful with the blackbytes..

I think to save blackbytes you should have full wallet(not light version) and make full backup.

Not true. To restore a wallet you need a full backup, not a full wallet. Even the full backup from a light wallet is enough to restore your blackbytes.

1) save the seed
2) do  full backups regularly
3) give them a password
4) keep calm and hold

What's the point in that "game" ?   
You can just wait for the last minute and put, lets say 90% of the pot amount and you'll have a 90% chance to double you coins.
The house(you) takes ~12% fee.

Who are you trying to fool ?

You do not need to play or even like lottery or any gambling game. But you can't possibly pretend that you do not grasp the concept of these games?

sure you can. or at the first minute. so?

Did you do the math? Thats not correct. The initial jackpots starts at 1GB no matter how many tickets are sold. With each ticket sold the jackpot increases and at a certain point the house profits from it. i mean everything else would make no sense right? I think the odds are very fair, please compare it to your local lottery service. If you do not like lotteries thats fine, don't play it.

Are there any updates about the project to involve merchants in the distribution of Byteball? Are there some numbers about the adoption of Byteball through this way?

[syclone]

Hey all, are there any more Byteball Airdrops coming up in the future or are they completely done now?   I really wish price would rise again, but all alts are rekt.

The snapshot for distribution round #10 is scheduled for the full moon of November: November 4, 2017 at 05:23 UTC. See https://wiki.byteball.org/airdrop for details.

[ByteFan]

http://byteball-cashback-witness.com/ MEJ... is now short ahead of @tonych historical witness JED...

see: https://byteball.fr/stats.html

Thanks to the community for strong adoption ! It may be considered as the first community elected independant witness. It is a good news for Byteball.

You put 90% of the coins in the last minute ? well that's what everyone is trying to do but since people aren't stupid, the pot will continue to grow. If you don't understand the concept of GTO and EV, basically as long as the pot is less than 10000MB, you have positive expectation no matter how many tickets you buy. At the current state, after the pot reaches 10000MB the "house" is starting to make profit, anything below that, the house loses and the players get more than they "deserve" (because it starts with free 1000MB).

Good to hear that the BB market is maturing. The chat bot system is very user friendly and a good asset for Byteball.

Has the new wallet software been released already? I can remember that Tony messaged that a new and improved version was upcoming.
