Obyte: Totally new consensus algorithm + private untraceable payments

[-doubleU-]

Thanx for the new Update. Great Job!

[jjacob]

Also email attestation bot launched, it allows to link your email address to your Byteball address.  It also pays a reward for attesting an email on one of the whitelisted domains:
@harvard.edu
@eesti.ee

The list of whitelisted domains seems to be very restrictive. Are there any plans to increase the list?
If there are fears of abuse by opening it up to the entire *.edu domain, you could restrict it to a few (not one ) of the top colleges.

With the new release, anybody can send money to me using my email addresses:
tonych AT byteball.org
anton.churyumov AT eesti.ee (I'm an Estonian e-Resident and have an email @eesti.ee)

@eesti.ee e-mail owner reporting in. Excellent choice, Tony! Although Estonian government is a bunch of gangsters just as every other government, it's still good to know that we're both racketeered by the same mafia now

Please retweet https://twitter.com/ByteballOrg/status/976051256757293056

Is there any statistics to   measure the frequency of  the use of p2p-travel-insurance-bot for various periods of time? The use of such data could help refine bot and measure the benefits derived.

Version 2.2 released https://github.com/byteball/byteball/releases

* Now you can send money directly to email address if the email is attested. The email is just replaced with the attested BB address
* Added ability to send money to multiple recipients in a single transaction.  It will be used for payouts to the participants of our signature campaign
* Added ability to prevent payment to a payment request which must be paid from a specific address only.  This helps to avoid mistakes when users paid for attestation from a multi-address wallet
* Fixed display of long asset names, now they are in smaller font to avoid overflowing wrapped text
* Fixed crashes when an asset name was received in an unsynced wallet
* Added new languages and significantly improved quality of translations, thanks to Punqtured and his team of translators.  Languages with almost complete translations: Danish, Bosnian, Chinese (Simplified), Croatian, Dutch, French, Hindi, Indonesian, Japanese, Nigerian (Pidgin), Polish, Portuguese, Romanian, Spanish and Turkish

Is it mandatory updates or optional, Tony? I have opened my Byteball wallet and saw the warning message about new upgrade. Can I still use old version of Byteball wallet? Is it safe if I won't upgrade my wallet.
By the way, in a little previous threads before mine, someone said you are the only developed behind Byteball project. Is it real? I hope the project actually has team of developers, not only you.

We are going to reward users who help spread the word about Byteball and starting a signature campaign on this forum

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3162547.0

The campaign will be paid from the undistributed funds.

You hire the guy as campaign manager. Look like the guy is a shit. He judged the selection without a uniform criteria.

Nice tech.

What is the roadmap and timeline regarding distributing the remaining bytes and blackbytes ?

What is the plan for decentralising witnesses?

Thanks

Tony Churyumoff Brings You Byteball - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YmKHCV5sB4I

It was recorded on December 2017, but only recently published. Very informative for anyone trying to learn more about this project.

We start restrictive, then expand.
Looking to confirm what other schools have strict controls over issuance of emails on their domains.

Hello xlcus,

Do you know what I found about you? I have spent a couple of seconds to scan your post history, which is clearly shows that you are one of shitty Ledgendary in the forum. Most of your threads are one-line, or two-line, and their contents are completely shit. That is why Theymos launched merit system to control more shitty users to rank up to Ledgendary rank.
By the way, congratulations for fortunately move up to the highest rank in the forum by publishing shit-show.
This is why yahoo62278 rejected you to join Byteball signature campaign. I think yahoo62278 has done good work as Byteball signature campaign's manager.

It is optional.

Not true.  Just see contributors on our github repos https://github.com/byteball (check all repos, not just the wallet https://github.com/byteball/byteball).  This email attestation bot was 90% done by another dev on our team.  Two other projects are nearly finished and wait that I launch them.

Six distribution methods listed on our website https://byteball.org/#dist, there will be more.

Looking for reputable well known people/orgs/businesses who satisfy all the criteria https://github.com/byteball/byteball-witness
Any help with approaching them is appreciated.

What a great day today that Byteball signed a contract with PR agency Tom Cridland Public Relations.

[welhzh]

nice to see tonych comes to this forum often.
it is the way of decentralized block chain, often going into the community.
it is glad that you are always here in ours，because you are the confidence.

Wow, it is nice to hear from you like this. I have checked the GitHub repos like you suggested, what I found is Byteball project has developed by team of devs, not only you.
It is great to hear that two other projects under Byteball developments have almost finished.

Private P2P payments over TOR? Yes, you can on Byteball

Probably this one...

https://beta.companieshouse.gov.uk/company/08850233

Looks like there were multiple corporations set up for him and a few of them have since been dissolved. Not unusual at all. I have multiple companies (many just holding companies) and some now file nil returns and others have been dissolved because they no longer fit into the corporate structure that suits my needs.

So IMO nothing to see here. Certainly not enough evidence to FUD.

"We are super excited that we have signed a contract with our first PR agency, Tom Cridland Public Relations."

One must know what he has signed with who.

Anyway, better anything than no PR.

I agree, better anything than no PR. I would note that your quote doesn't say "Tom Cridland Public Relations Limited", which is the dissolved company. Brands and business lines live on even after original corporations are dissolved. Which is why people often submit the term "operating as" or "o/a" when filing with tax authorities.
