We are launching a new method of identity verification for residents of Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, and e-residents of Estonia.

The new method is much cheaper (only $0.50) and much more reliable than Jumio.  It is available through the same real name attestation bot, which now offers a choice between Jumio and the new method.

Thank you, tonych, for the news at the right time.
I don't really know Obyte Cash's intention to clone the sources from Obyte and make their fork, just let they do their works.
Someone who feel interested in Obyte Cash might have their rights to join them. For me, I will stay here with Obyte, in you (tonych), and Obyte as well as Obyte team, I believe that we all have bright future.
All the best,

[BTCspace]

maybe need push to list obyte to more exchanges and also change the Unit to MB ?

we need ask exchange change it and also for coinmarketcap

really hope this project have a big future.

Bitcoin SV has ended as a fraud. Binance, delisted Bitcoin SV, and other exchanges will do it in coming hours, days, or weeks.

Recently, we saw the Obyte Cash, a forked from Obyte, so my question for myself and for you is:
Which ending has waited for Obyte Cash? Personally, I don't see reason to succeed for Obyte Cash.

Funny choice of words. In what way does the listing status on any particular exchange cause a chain to be -- and I quote your careless misrepresentation -- "a scam"?

Sorry about that, English is not my mother tongue, so I misunderstood the meanings of fraud and scam. I admited the misusage, and already corrected my post above, turned scam into fraud, as the article used. Thanks for pointing this out so fast.

Incidentally, for a non-native speaker, your English is pretty good. With the possible exception of not understanding the words 'scam' and 'fraud'.

Clearly anyone who uses "mother tongue" instead of "first language" is not a native English speaker. Other hints are "admited", "misusage" and "as the article used". Probably both are you are not native English speakers.

what relation has Bitcoin SV to Obyte Cash? There are examples of successful and unsuccessful forks on the market. There are examples of successful forks and dead originals. If not to assume that almost all coins to some extent fork of Bitcoin.

Not as fast as we want, but we are continuing the decentralization of witnesses.

 Fabien Marino is the second independent witness candidate.  He is known for his obyte.js library, obyte.io explorer, busy.org, steemconnect.com, and DrugWars game (top app on https://www.stateofthedapps.com/rankings) which recently issued a token on Obyte.

Read the full announcement https://medium.com/obyte/second-independent-witness-candidate-fabien-marino-d4e8dccadee.

The decision about changing your witness list is up to you, see the instructions in the article.

[tbct_mt2]

Decentralized witness list, that is very strange term for me, honestly. Fabio Mariano is the second witness, after Rogier Eijkelhof, whom is the first.
The most favorite feature of Obyte that caught his attention to the Obyte project is the DAG. Moreover, from what I read in the article, the Witness lists are somehow substitutes of Trusted Nodes, right? Maybe Witness List has more advantages than Trusted node. Do I get the basic thing relates to Witness list in the right way?

anyone want to attest an address for me? ill pay you

It's all about tribalism. OGs are resentful to those that forked away. So basically everyone assumes that the larger tribe wins. In the case of Ethereum and Classic, the community of Ethereum is bigger. With Bitcoin, the bigger one is with the segwit update. It's a popularity contest, if you will.

Obyte version 2.7.0 released, some highlights:

Added ability to create and sign classic (prosaic, not smart) contracts. The contracts are optionally linked to real-name attested identities, like the classic contracts. Contract texts are saved privately in the wallets of the parties, their hashes are signed by both parties and posted to the DAG.

Full story https://medium.com/obyte/introducing-prosaic-contracts-5d3564638a20



Now it is possible to quickly search and sort the lists bots and contacts, which have grown too large lately:



Added an option to spend unconfirmed funds received from third parties, previously only unconfirmed change could be spent.  It is off by default.



On iPhone X and other top-notchy iPhones, the app now occupies the entire screen




Full list of updates:

* Updated branding from Byteball to Obyte
* Added ability to create and sign classic (prosaic, not smart) contracts.  The contracts are optionally linked to real-name attested identities, like the classic contracts. Contract texts are saved privately in the wallets of the parties, their hashes are signed by both parties and posted to the DAG.
* Added ability to specify a list of trusted real name attestors.  Received private profiles attested by trusted or untrusted attestors are visually indicated as such.
* Added ability to quickly search and sort contacts and bots
* Added an option to mute push notifications for individual correspondents (bots).
* Added an option to spend unconfirmed funds received from third parties, previously only unconfirmed change could be spent
* Human readable display of contracts now displays the peer's name rather than just "peer".  It matters most in contracts with more than one peer, such as ORider.
* On smart contract composition pages, added more helpful placeholders and links to instructions on wiki
* When binding a condition to a payment, allowed to set conditions where oracle-posted data is more or less than the specified value, previously only exact equality was supported
* Sign-a-message feature now allows to sign with any address which is a member of the wallet, not just the last address
* Lists of addresses in multisig wallets are now synced among cosigner devices, which helps to automatically recover from loss of sync
* Extended the byteball: (obyte:) URI protocol to allow posting data (data feeds, attestations, polls, ...) by clicking a link on a website
* Added ability to claim several assets stored on a single textcoin address
* On iPhone X and other top-notchy iPhones, the app now occupies the entire screen
* Updated initial sync, full wallets no longer require large amounts of memory (and no longer run out of memory) when starting the initial sync or when syncing after a long period of being offline.
* The wallet now shows dollar value of some assets traded on the Exchange Bot, such as Future token
* Fixed a bug in Windows wallets which prevented it from opening byteball: links on websites.
* Fixed a bug that prevented multi-sig wallets from signing transactions in private currencies (such as blackbytes)
* Fixed a bug that caused some Android wallets to hang when restoring from backup
* Fixed a bug that crashed the wallet when requesting a custom asset payment with byteball: link and not having that particular asset in currently selected wallet
* Fixed a bug that prevented sign-a-message feature from working in multisig wallets
* Latest Tor Browser with Tor 0.3.5.x broke the socks5 passwordless handshake https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/29175, now it is fixed
* Fixed a bug that sometimes caused Android 4.4 devices to crash when trying to restore from full backup
* New languages: Srpski, Filipino, Vietnamese, Yoruba
* Multiple minor bugfixes and improvements

smells like evolution to me. survival of the fittest and most popular. if in doubt go alpha. i think for any cryptocurrency to gain some traction it needs followers, users, devs, usecases etc. to make sense in the cryptoworld.
forks and knives can't be avoided. but st. toshi had this in mind when releasing the code "open source".
the only true coin is bitcoin

Obyte version 2.7.0 released, some highlights:

It sounds cool but it's not enforceable not only on DAG but in reality too. There's no law that recognizes "real ID verification" on Obyte and digital cryptographic signatures as equivalent to handwritten signature on paper. As long as the law does not change this feature is just a toy with no real world application.

Funny thing: how can anyone be sure that anything signed on Obyte platform (including signatures from real world verified IDs) have been performed by the person that owns the ID? It may well be my girlfriend that took to my laptop when I was in a bathroom and forgot to lock the screen with Obyte wallet left open (password is still optional in Obyte wallet, right? Ooops.) That's the problem with digital signatures. Handwritten signature is oldschool but at least nobody can do it for me.

Otherwise it would have already been implemented in different ways in many industries. But it didn't. Human notaries are fine and will be for a very long time.

Or how about dead people? Who will terminate their verified ID's on Obyte when they die? Nobody? So anyone who has password and a wallet of a dead person can still sign anything as if that person is still alive?

How about lost/stolen/hacked wallets? How anybody can terminate their own verified ID on Obyte when somebody looses password/wallet/ or is hacked etc.? Will Obyte have some kind of customer service 24/7 hotline to terminate compromised IDs?

this coins is the best example that tech does not mean success. its really sad that obyte is not used more.
but its too good to be pump.
