Obyte: Totally new consensus algorithm + private untraceable payments

[clovis A.]

Version 1.4 released https://github.com/byteball/byteball/releases

It includes:
* Full backup and restore.  The backup file is compressed, encrypted, and compatible with all platforms
* Improved speed of sync
* Multiple bugfixes

Please upgrade.  Android version is already in Google Play.

If you plan to move your wallet to another device using backup/restore, please close the wallet and don't use it on the first device after creating the backup.  Overlapped use of the same keys on multiple devices can lead to multiple issues such as non-delivered blackbytes and lost chat messages.  If what you want is access to the same money from multiple devices, use multisig instead.

I have plans to move my wallet to another device. Do I need to complete a full sync on the new device before restoring from full backup?

No, you don't, you can move it half-synced.

The PC I'm moving my wallet to has never had any version of byteball software, so I'm syncing from scratch. It took about 12 hours to get to 69% and then it was stuck on 69% for about five hours. At this point, I closed the wallet and re-opened to see if it would help get me over this 69% hump. The wallet is back at 69% and it's been stuck for approximately six hours. Is this normal for a new install?
 
The PC I've been using since the initial 12/25 distro never became stuck at any point while syncing. Although, I was opening my wallet daily, since 12/25, so it may have never got stuck because I was syncing regularly.

Any insight would be appreciated

This is not normal. Your cpu and disk usage should normally be high during sync.  If it is not, something is wrong, a restart usually helps.

You don't need to sync the 2nd PC before moving.  As far as I understand, you already have a fully synced wallet on the 1st PC and since you are doing full backup that contains the entire database, you'll get a fully synced wallet after restore.  The old data on the 2nd PC will be deleted during restore anyway.

Okay, so I just successfully restored from full backup on my new PC.

You are also correct, on the initial pc, my wallet was fully synced up to the time of the 1.4.0 release. Seems that the new PC is not liking byteball, as it's still syncing very slow, with the fully restored wallet. I'm gonna just let it go and see what happens......

I'll catch you in slack if I can't fully sync. Sure hope I don't have to go back to my initial PC.....I really don't want future BB distro's or my chat activity to be hosed up.


EDIT:  wallet on new PC made it past the 69% mark, so I assume I'll be golden from here

EDIT#2:  fully synced on new pc. thanks for the assist @tonych

Is there any reward for running a relay or a hub?

Only dignity and honor.

I would run a node, but I stuck at the point where I have to install nginx and a valid (not self signed) Zertificate.
Which functions will not work without these two points?

How do I remove paired devices

There is no function in the wallet yet but it's already on the to-do list.
I've heard it is possible to delete the entries from the SQLite database, if you're familiar with sql. Look for a table with name "devices" (or similar).

And we need a cancel order feature for exchange bot too.

I can not find in application folder
conf.json to change client from full to lite.

Where is the configuration file can be found in Windows XP

When you say application folder, do you mean %LOCALAPPDATA%\byteball? That's where you should try looking. Having said that, you can not change a client from full to light and vice-versa. You have to reinstall and chose light.

When I tried to reinstall...
I've got error:

System: Windows XP 64 bit.

I can provide the necessary logs.

XP is not supported, 7 is minimum.

[Loepuenkyou]

I think is good must provide two system wallet
can support 32bits system and 64bits system, because not all user use 64bits system

It already exists. Please, check on github : https://github.com/byteball/byteball/releases

It is available for only Windows ... Maybe Loepuenkyou needs a 32-bit version for another OS. There are instructions to build the binaries yourself, I didn't try them though. Having said that, it would indeed be useful to have 32-bit versions for all the operating systems.

[escapefrom3dom]

why the blackbyte is cheaper than a byte in the slack?

[lujunqing7890]

This currency is very risky, well done, the income is also great.

[komdo]

why the blackbyte is cheaper than a byte in the slack?

because blackbyte supply is 2x byte

[escapefrom3dom]

why the blackbyte is cheaper than a byte in the slack?

because blackbyte supply is 2x byte

ok.

but the difference is more than 2 times for ASK/BID orders.

is that correct about the current total supply 2x117,610 for black GBYTES?

[kaicrypzen]

why the blackbyte is cheaper than a byte in the slack?

Probably because byte is incentivised by the rules of the distribution and easily exchanged on Cryptox. Moreover, blackbytes do not have an actual use currently and holding bytes will grant blackbytes in the distribution, so, some people get rid of them ...

[specturul]

Why large exchanges not add this coin. The situation is similar with Iota, it is somehow associated with license for DAG?
