Obyte: Totally new consensus algorithm + private untraceable payments

[kamiyama]

Sorry im newbie, wta how to get free byteball?

Let's read the first page

[CyanFox]

Will be more distribution rounds?

See at the Byteball website the scheduled for 4th round distribution will be April 11, 2017 at 06:08 UTC

That is the money party of next round, every round we get less coins, and I hope we can make more money from byteball.

Is there a tutorial on how to buy byteball using chatbot?

Just chat with it, it is not a rocket science.

Its not talking back you patronizing C**t. 

[CryptKeeper]

syncing is so much slower than it use to be - is it only me?

I did a fresh sync a day before the distribution and it took 4 hrs. YMMV

The bots must be restarted from time to time and are not responding in the meantime. Please try again later, simply enter any text into the chat text box and it will answer with instructions.

Will be more distribution rounds?

Yes, there will be a distribution on every full moon until all bytes and blackbytes are distributed.
The snapshot for the next round #4 will be on 11 April 06:08 UTC.

Why byteball is available on handful of exchanges? How can I take participation in free distribution.
I just check it's price and trends in coingeek and it seems interesting.

I don't have much time to watch things closely but are there any applications based on byteball (regulated assets, decentralized storage etc.)?
To me conditional payments are a great step forward and I hope devs will start looking into them

@dev: could you please put the in f-droid.

I checked F-droid but didn't change my decision to distribute APKs through google play exclusively.  The biggest merit of google play is auto-updates, which is absolutely required for security apps like this.  While you say you are prepared to go through the trouble of manual updating, most people aren't, and I don't want to encourage use of outdated software that might have critical security bugs.  Moxie Marlinspike had some fair criticisms about f-droid, which I totally agree with, and I believe, for this kind of apps, google is a lesser evil.

The desire for other / larger exchanges appears again and again. You can advance this wish:

However, the current status of the distribution does not yet allow a listing on big exchanges:
Only 137,000 GB (13.7% of the total quantity of 1 PByte = 1E15 bytes) was distributed. At constant boundary conditions (constant participation = grow of linked BTC ~10000, constant interest of already distributed bytes 10%), there will still be ~ 15 rounds. At Christmas 2017 about ~50% will be distributed. The next year around this time, it will be about 80 percent.

From my perspective, other exchanges (still) have no priority
1. cryptox does a good job
2. cryptox was there when we needed a market

New adopter should be happy about the fact that Byteball (yet) is not traded on a big exchange:
If byteball would be on a larger exchange, that would mean more attention. More interest / demand meets small supply -> price increases strongly - bad for new entrants / small investors.
It is counterproductive in three months to turn the thrust from zero to 120 percent. That ends with a lot of damage and a very hard landing.

I think the current underdog status is good for byteball and ensures sustainable development / growth.
The distribution model offers the chance that Byteball slowly grows into a strong capitalization. When the time is ripe, then it will automatically change.

In other words, you are watching Part I -> This part is called "Episode I - The Force Awakens"

Is this a LetsMakeLazyWhaleBastardsRicherCoin topic?

Seriously.. you should consider relaunch with a fair distribution - each linked btc address gets equal.
Otherwise this coin is DOA.. sorry.

Just think a little before making a statement. Every linked address gets equal? Anyone can have (and link) as many addresses as they want. They are free and easy to create in any quantity.
Even if you ask for non empty ones, you would need a minimum threshold of say 0.1 btc.
And even yet, the potential for exploit would be HUGE

You have a weird definition of the word "fair".

You should create your own clone of byteball and try that distribution method and see how far you get.

how do you handle large addresses using a wallet script to split to 1000 addresses then register all addresses. not sure you thought this through...

too easy to cheat: nothing prevents me from linking one million btc addresses

You've got a point there, though personally signing a message a million times with the chat bot would be very difficult to do but its possible.

Please make sure that you updated to wallet version 1.5.1 and that you are fully synced!

[chikiuso]

Do you know why third round of distribution coins are much more than second round? Is it because more people joint the distribution, right? And 4th round is coming soon, I can't wait.
