Are there any news about the plan/intention of broadcasting the names of the assets created on the Byteball platform? As for now they would appear in the wallet just with their hash, which is scacely useful since it's impossible to brand. I'm eagerly waiting.
I don't see why Byteball would create a brand for you. I would think that you would create your own brand and advertise it instead of trying to get Byteball to do it for you. Assets are private by nature (like blackbytes) so there shouldn't be advertising of such. Maybe I misunderstood what you were hoping to get. People would then simply create a million assets in hope of getting free advertising for anything/nothing in hopes of being the next millionaire for doing nothing more than pressing a few buttons to get free adverts.
Yes, Michail, I think you misunderstood what I wanted to say or perhaps I did not explain myself properly. I didn't want Byteball to brand my asset, just wanted to be able to do it myself but to do it myself I need the name of my currency to appear in the wallet instead of an unreadable hash. By the way I always read your posts with great pleasure.
Assets will have names very soon, this is currently at the top of the priority list of the devs.
There are private and public assets on Byteball. There is definitely reasons for having public assets that are advertised/promoted (ICO tokens, frequent flier miles, ect.) Blackbytes are an example of a private asset but public assets can also be created.
I didn't know that an user can create BOTH private assets and public assets - so if I'm understanding correctly if you are issuing your own currency on Byteball you can adopt the same strategy bytes is using (bytes/blackbytes) to create your own "couple" os assets - public and private aka "black"?
I think the problem is solved with the 1.11.0 release in principle:
Version 1.11.0 released
https://github.com/byteball/byteball/releases....
In this version, you can also manually attest other users and post arbitrary data into Byteball DAG.
We'll use this data-posting functionality to assign human readable names to tokens issued on Byteball (now they are shown as cryptic hashes).
....
Wow, if this means what I think, perhaps the problem I'm talking about is going to be solved very soon. That's what I am waiting for, since this could be a game changer for Byteball.
