Obyte: Totally new consensus algorithm + private untraceable payments

[marseille]

This will tank anyway. It wont hold at this level, mark my word. Id rather invest in a stock options that expire within 24 hours than put my money in a dangerous unproven junk with limited liquidity and no support from institutional backers like myself.

Pardon my English, what "institutional" should mean above? Google translates it as "unappealing or unimaginative".

He just pretend to be a big institution... possible he should be called "individual backer" but people want make themselves important, right? A newbie can be ignored, lol.

ok, wanted to backup my byteball files, and accidentally moved them out completely, then moved them back.

now when I try to start byteball I get this error?

any ideas?

hey guys,

someone got a solution on that one?

Looked at Coinmarketcap, Byteball with 10% distributed coins ranked at #56:
http://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/byteball/

If all 100% coins are counted, it will be at #15, very good for a new coin like byteball.

True, I was thinking about it.
If all coins were distributed, that would put the cryptocurrency between Dogecoin and Waves at the present time.

Won't increasing available supply tenfold increase sell pressure as well? I hope it won't repeat Decred scenario.

This can happen if there is no increase in demand. However, I think we have different scenarios. Decred uses POW + POS. Byteball uses DAG, something relatively new and completely different. The tech can play an important role in this.

I never got Byteballs during the distribution which truly sucked. And now I just noticed that the Bitcoins that I sent to get Byteball are still unconfirmed. Would it be possible that I will still get Byteballs if they go through, or am I completely screwed?

somehow it worked itself out.

After restarting the wallet a few times, no more error, not really sure what happened.

If your tx isn't in the xmas block, then you haven't made it. To be sure please look up your address(es) here: http://transition.byteball.org

But don't be sad, there will be several more rounds of distribution. The next one mid february, you can already link your bitcoin addresses to your Byteball wallet.

It didn't show up. I just don't know if I'll have Bitcoins next time.

Is there a roadmap for all the snapshots? I need to do some financial management to get the best distribution and I need to feed my dog too.

Specific dates are not set in stone, but mid-february will roughly be the next distro target. Stock up on dog food now and you'll be golden

I tried to link to my btc address..it did not work..

When is the next free byte distribution?

[Jamus]

what a completely unfair distribution.. its going to be a dump fest from now till next distribution.. and then after a fresh batch of people get distrubted another 50%.. another dump fest.. best time to buy would be around march. but even then still another 9x the current amount to be distributed.

You will laugh. Its not the case, or was the first distribution a dump fest?

To to disparage Byteball, but you totally ignore the partnerships and real world innovations already made and being built along side Iota. You suggestion that Iota is for a market 10 years from now is not really supported by any data I've seen.

No offense!
I like the two named Projects  . And I have high respect for the developers and their goals.
I only compare the complexity of the objectives. The more complex and revolutionary/ visionary the more difficult the path (it’s platitude). I do not want to intensify the topic, otherwise it will be OT.
But I would like to name three core aspects, which led me to the statement:

The fact is that not even 50% of the world's population is online…
In industry, the development is much slower than in the consumer market. Because you need much more investment…
My very crude temporal ideas are derived from other developments (i.e. PC development / robot / internet):

My opinion also does not rule out that a speculative investment is not promising..  or as marseille said: ”A newbie can be ignored..”

At least get your data straight if you want anyone here to take your baseless predictions seriously ... Dump fest? 50%? March? 9x? Where the heck does all this data come from? Maybe you know things that we don't or live in an alternate reality/world where these numbers make sense (yet you are able to post here ...).

currently 100,000 of 1,000,000 have been distributed... only 10% ... another 9x this amount and we have our final amount.

all im saying is that if a supply increases by 900% over a short period of time usually the price is impacted.

Yes, that's true, however, the rules of distribution have been changed to slow it down, the total supply won't be distributed over a short time period (well short is subjective), it may (and probably will) take years.
