Obyte: Totally new consensus algorithm + private untraceable payments

[tonych]

should us prouv bbs balance for next round ? or claimers are listed and get airdrop bonus auto ?

Auto.  Your Byteball address is already known, and the balance of this address counts for the 2nd round.  You might only have to move funds within your wallet to this address.

[tonych]

Why would lowering the micropayment be riskier than with the current micropayments? (because they would be easily spotted?)

Because the attack would become cheaper, hence worthwhile.

mmmm, in my opinion the attack is already worthwhile, anyway such an attack won't succeed unless the attackee is not vigilant and doesn't double check their address (as the bot instructs them), so why not lower it if it permits to filter out exchanges addresses at the detection process (not requiring you to check suspect addresses)?

People do make mistakes, and having to be overly vigilant scares them off.  I'd rather have a more comfortable environment for the entire process.
The attacker's ROI depends on 3 factors:
- % of people who do not check that the address is theirs after receiving a second notification "Received your payment from ..." (the attacker's microtransaction is almost certainly later than the legitimate one)
- average balance of such users
- cost of attacking, which is the average amount of the microtransaction
By lowering the cost, we turn the ROI at some point from negative to positive.

You need to paste your BB address only in the message field (top field)
and your BTC address in the address field (middle field)
Then press "sign" and you'll get signature (bottom field)

great work hermesesus

what about a tutorial for Ledger Wallet (HW.1, Nano), anyone?

Unfortunately, it is not possible yet to sign a message with a Ledger Wallet and its Chrome app
The "sign a message" feature is in development (roadmap: https://trello.com/c/xMK8hj9r)

How to make a safe backup of the wallet?

The text in the wallet warns that saving the seed is not enough. See image below.

 

Is that correct? If so, where is the data directory to save?

1.) Search %APPDATA% if on Windows.

2.) Navigate to "local" folder.

3.) Copy and paste byteball folder. (DO NOT DELETE OR MOVE IT.)

4.) Place the byteball folder in selected backup location with the paste function.

 

what about the main folder in c:programs , should it be backed up as well ?

Yes I would back it all up just for safety.

Is it possible to use different BB address for every BTC address? I tried generating new BB address and bot still asks to sign previous one.

Thanks

[Jody.Drummer]

The bitcoin snapshot will be taken on the first block on or after dec-25 00:00:00 UTC, at that point in time you should have bitcoins in your linked address!
