I agree with that. People should withdraw their bitcoins from there.

[s1lverbox]

UPDATE :

893456 BTC linked  which will bring approx. : 55,841 gb

and we have 365,903gb in circulation which will bring : 73,180 gb more after airdrop

So

 365,903+73,180+56,266= 494,924 Gb in total in circulation after give away.

That's 50% of all gbytes.

Yes i think in this rate we will have 3 more airdrops.

Distribution :   0.0625 Gb for each 1 BTC of linked balance and 0.2 new byte for each 1 byte you already hold.
                        131.94375 MBB for each 1 BTC of linked balance and 0.42222 new Bbyte for each 1 byte you already hold (on linked addresses only).

What exactly is this bixin and why you call them parasites ? Because they sell the BCH to BTC or what else ? Also I thought there is no chance for replay attack in BCH, on trezor site (and everywhere else I looked) it was said to be safe, oh, you mean they bullied people into depositing btc to their exchange in order to prevent replay attacks in their (random btc individual) private wallet ?

How to change from light wallet to full wallet?

Also, I manually backed up my wallet by copying the complete /byteball folder. What file exactly do I use to import my backup?

Great to know that there are still going to be a few more airdrops to come.
Looking forward to some nice compounded returns on my Byteball.
Holding on tight to these.

same here, I couldn't believe it is going to work on beginning, but Byteballs surprised me very positive.
They made me addicted to those airdrops.
It is one of best and serious projects I can find in crypto this days.

Nice update and stats, thanks!

Hi guys,

I have a question and sorry if this has already been answered.
It says on the website that

For every 16 BTC you receive 1 GB (1 gigabyte = 1 billion bytes),
For every 5 GB you receive additional 1 GB.

for the last round i already received the byteball from the linked BTC addresses, now does that mean this round i will also receive the same amount of byteball if i have the same amount of BTC linked? and also receive a further 1GB for every 5GB i have linked?

[European Central Bank]

Correct. Double check your change addresses un case you've transacted and lost the linking.

[Thirdspace]

---snip---

I see! Thank you for your answer!

Also, sorry for the newbie question, but should the chat with the bot start around half an hour before 18:10 UTC, so that you don't miss the snapshot?

You should link it as soon as possible, need not to wait near deadline time.
Even if you move btc balance from/to that address,
you still get rewarded based on whatever balance left in that address at the time of snapshot.

Yes I believe so. You would be rewarded again as long as the btc address you link still have the same amount in it.
Make sure it is still linked by checking it with the transition bot.

Hoping I'm not too late for this, still haven't download the wallet yet

Desktop wallets can be full nodes (will take a while syncing with the network after the first start) or light nodes.

I suspect light node means something similar to electrum for btc, am I correct?
If I want to go with light node wallet for windows, where can I download it?
do full node & light node walet has different binaries file?
on the first page only win64 version is available.

wallet sync is extremely slow, I sync'ed two days and it's barely from may to july, now half day at around july 10-12. Performance is a big issue.

yes, I've noticed this problem as well when loading up the wallet.

Would be nice if there was a light wallet for use ...

There is, when you installed byteball it asked if you want light or full wallet, you chose full wallet. If you want light wallet, install on a VM or another machine byteball again, choose light wallet this time, send your balance there, backup, uninstall your full wallet on first PC, then install again to light wallet and move lightwallet backup to first PC.

[megashira1]

I made a backup of my byteball wallet by copying the byteball directory and its contents not by generating wallet backup(did not work with my client).

To import this old wallet do I just copy the contents into the new byteball directory?

[maryvale]

The coin price is moving towards the right direction now :-)

Thanks, now that you mention it I remember when i installed the client.  Some how slipped my mind

Yes, replace the byteball directory with the backed up one.

price starts to go up in anticipating the next round distribution...

Everyone has got their Bitcoin Cash airdrop and now they are starting to think about the GBYTE airdrop that is coming in a few days.
Ok, it isn't quite as big a drop as the BCH one, but I personally like the extra GBYTE drops more, they are certainly less controversial!

I wonder how many people will forget to re-link after splitting their coins. At the moment mine aren't linked, I need to do that later so I don't forget.
