Obyte: Totally new consensus algorithm + private untraceable payments

[Cryptoupp]

Hi,

How do I need to sync gbyte wallet with btc wallet?

I clicked the chat bot and then..Add a new device..and invite the other device, scan the QR code and where do I need to paste?
I dont understand the process, I am quite new with how the wallets work.

Thanks

I am a volunteer to set up and run a witness. Would you replace one of your witnesses by mine in the default list at least until we get some well reputed "captain of industry" to replace me ?

That means : are you socialy ready to start release hands on witnesses ?

Personally, I am ready to place trust in community members.

Nice to hear.

There is now a fresh new witness just started at byteball.fr and posting :

https://explorer.byteball.org/#MEJGDND55XNON7UU3ZKERJIZMMXJTVCV

I did it this way - hope it will work:

Ok, many thanks!!

Do I need to have the btc in my wallet before to sync with gbyte wallet? or.. I can add the btc into my wallet after the sync (before the distribution)?

Thanks

Chatbot says that my wallet has 0 BTC but my wallet has ~0.2 BTC, does that mean that i have to have at least 1 btc in my wallet to recieve Byteballs?

Great work!

Which witness in the default 12 list would you like me to replace?

You're bitcoins are on a different address (change address). Send yourself your complete balance, use the address you've linked.

Note: Your wallet has many different addresses. After each transaction the addresses will rotate (i.e. you did a micropayment).
See also the explanation of kaicrypzen:

I have confirmed my byteball and bitcoin addresses they are on http://transition.byteball.org/ but it says my balance is zero when i have bitcoin in that address?  

Also, remember that when you link by doing a micropayment, your funds are very likely to be transferred to a change address (which is under your control) and that you might have to send your funds back to your original linked address.

What does the block explorer say about your address? You surely have bitcoins in your wallet but not in the linked address (because they were transferred as change to another address in your wallet when you made the micropayment). You just need to send your funds to your linked address.

Thank you for the reply, I changed method and tryed again. I setup an exodus wallet on my laptop and sent the micro transaction from that wallet which got confirmed and shows on your explorer correctly but stills says my balance is zero  

You want to link btc_addr1 to bb_addr1 doing a micropayment. When you send the micropayment m to bot_btc_addr, here is what happens:

btc_addr1 -> bot_btc_addr : m
btc_addr1 -> btc_addr2 : total_balance - m

btc_addr2 is what is called you change address, when you do a transaction, the remaining funds go to a new address in your wallet (btc_addr2 in that case). The consequence is:

btc_addr1 is linked.
btc_addr1 balance is 0.
btc_addr2 balance is total_balance - m (let's say it's your balance).

Your next action, is to send your balance to btc_addr1. (There is no need to know what btc_addr2 is.)

Normally, the bot tells you this (to send your funds to the linked address). The bot tells you it's 0 because it is 0 (you can check the balance of your address in a Bitcoin block explorer like blockchain.info to be sure that the bot doesn't lie ).

Alternatively (if you use Electrum check out this tut):

Works perfectly  (real-time) status:

Problem at the browser??

[damashup]

Getting the follow error from 1.7 wallet (on mac):

Uncaught exception: Error: Error:
malformed SELECT hash_tree_balls.unit FROM
hash_tree_balls LEFT JOIN units USING(unit) WHERE
units.unit IS NULL ORDER BY ball_index

Screenshot: https://snag.gy/PUn5Vb.jpg

Wallet then crashes. Any ideas on how I can resolve this?

I just pulled all my BTC from exchanges and consolidated on linked address. The transition bot in wallet & http://transition.byteball.org/ both updated within half an hour. So yes, they are working fine.

Hello, one question will sound like stupid...

How can I link account signing a message.
The bot said before singning, you must "let me know your bitcoin adress first". How can I show my bitcoin adress to the bot? Writing it in the chatbot doesn't work...

(using android wallet for byteball)

Please, how can I tell the bot my BTC adress before pasting message signed?? I dont want to miss this round!

paste address fist and click send icon, then when prompted paste the signed message and click

The problem is: Paste BTC adress, click send icon. And nothing happens.

Maybe because I'm working with Android Byteball-wallet?

It works exactly that way, I've just done it myself a few hours ago.
Is there something special about that address? E.g. you can't sign with a multi-sig address starting with the letter '3'!
