Obyte: Totally new consensus algorithm + private untraceable payments

[jjacob]

Quick reminder:
there is a reddit poll happening to vote for the change of denomination and if it comes to Tony's attention it could make a difference. https://www.reddit.com/r/ByteBall/comments/7npgib/poll_unit_of_denomination_gbyte_kbyte_or_mbyte/

It is not surprising that GB receives the fewest number of votes. What is surprising is that MB is receiving more votes than KB. People should realize that this is a one-time exercise. We shouldn't be here in a few months claiming that Byteball costs a few dollars because it is denominated in MB, and people are picking up cheaper coins. The move to KB would be a good idea, in my view.

I don't know...there is such a thing as too cheap.... I think we are good with MB.

And if the exhanges need money to make the change I'd be happy to make a small donation if there was a fund to do so. I think this change is a must if we want people to embrace BB

Who understands the purses, explain to me (I can not understand this thrash):
1. Is there really still no Web-purse?
2. I downloaded the wallet for PC. Why does not it require a password or seed? How does he recognize me if I want to go from another PC?
3. Given point 2: how do I restore my wallet, if the PC crashes? (The wallet does not identify me at all, does not ask for a password or seed)

All this fuss with switching to megabytes is fucking retarded. If gigabyte is too expensive for you, buy less, and don't fuck nobody's brains. It is as simple as buying beer: if 12 pack is expensive for you, buy a single, you fucking retards.

If your 12 pack of beer was advertised as one beer you'd say "I'd like to buy 1/12th of a beer as I cannot afford a full beer". Now does that seem customer friendly to you? There are newbies to the crypto scene who have no idea about coin supply - they just look for the "cheapest" coin

There is no need to flame - just use the poll to express your own opinion (GBYTE)

I don't fucking care about your fucking poll, I am just tired of all this retarded mbyte/gbyte talk. How amazingly stupid you got to be if you can't understand, that 1 gbyte is just 1000 fucking mbytes!

I'm just wondering about your low level communication, such users who can't be polite should be banned immediately. Every row with three times "fucking", unbelievable.

If you want to increase adoption, please get in contact with Cryptopia and tell them how to fix their wallet issues. Withdrawals disabled for over a month now...

Here's what one of the mods on discord channel told me:

Plan to make BYTEBALL top 10 on coinmarketcap and speed up adoption:

1. Burn remaining supply.
2. Change denomination on Bittrex.

Anyway awesome project.

The features of the new wallet are great!
Just a question: which is the best way to switch from a full node wallet to a light one - without losing old addresses of course?

[Drokzid]

Does the transition bot also work with BTC Segwit addresses? I want to claim Byteballs with the new Segwit adresses. Does anybody know that?

we can't, i'm in same situation
its too bad for a coin who want to be distributed free excluding a lot people because of that
instead arguing for the name, it will better to find a way to fix this

Why would you burn remaining supply instead to use these coin in usefull way, moreover if you use remaining supply to make a promotion, byteball would 4th at least

Yes, it's not only that as now trading has been disabled also now. Hopefully they will not drag this out until the distribution starts up.

1) No there is no Webwallet
2) + 3) In the left under "Settings" you can find a option to set a password and to backup your seed ( or better a full backup which restores your Blackbytes too).

Byteball isn't excluding anybody.
In order to verify your adress you have to sign a message, but SegWit has no standard to sign a message.

If you only have public assets (bytes for instance) then the seed is enough. Save it, uninstall your full wallet, install a light wallet and restore using the seed. You'll get your addresses with their public assets' balances.

If you have private assets (blackbytes for instance) then you'll have to wait for your full wallet to sync, install a(n intermediary) light wallet elsewhere (a different user will do if you want to stay on the same machine) and transfer your blackbytes then your bytes to it. If you want your old addresses back, then after emptying your full wallet, uninstall it, install a light one and recover from the seed. You'll then have to send your assets from your intermediary light wallet to your newly installed light wallet (always leave sending the bytes at the end, because you'll need them for fees to send everything else).

You can send a micropayment. But with fees and change addresses to worry about, not sure if it's worth doing.

Ahh,yes. You are right.
But I think it would be than smarter to buy Bytes directly with the fees you would have paid for the registration :-D

Can anybody point me in the direction of an article which explains how the 12 witnesses work and why it is not a problem when compared to the problematic coordinator of IOTA.

Also, what is the number of transactions per second that Byteball is limited to?

I own and both bytes and blackbytes

From what I heard in Slack: theoretically there is no limit. At the moment though it's apparently ~30tps. Also heard: hasn't been optimised since release because it wasn't necessary yet.
