Obyte: Totally new consensus algorithm + private untraceable payments

[Pastonia]

In my opinion BYTEBALL is one of most promissing projects in the cryptoworld with nice technology behind and good development. But who is selling bytes in such cheap price?

I agree. The price drop is just due to the lack of airdrop this month. The price could be higher next month.

M'kay mate. Send me a nickel when you are there   But until then check your bags regularly for mold before all your bytes rot away lol joke.

No kidding, I am caught with my jeans so far down that it can be considered baggy. But guess whats exposed?

Tell you what, if you are in crypto and do not have at least two Balls noone will take you serious. To some it is pride, some see it as a sign of being well informed about future developments in crypto while some see it as evidence that you had a good amount of BTC at some point.

Send a Post adress for the Nickel, BTC transactions take forever.

Could have very well been the case. A lot of people are expecting monthly airdrops, so they were probably freaking out once they realized it wasn't coming...

Why was this months Airdrop skipped?

I think the project would do well to consider renaming. Look at what hapenned with Antshares --> NEO

well the name and the logo. i always thought about a snowball that i getting bigger after every airdrop. and you can pass these balls to others while transferring them. but who collects balls? and who uses balls to pay for something?

do you have an idea for a better name?


btw: what should be changed is the unit in exchanges. a GB is to much.

Antshares was a weird name, but NEO is just as weird. Dash pulled the same trick, from something untrusted with a very bad image ("instamine") to a new name to make people forget it's past.

Whenever I mention Byteball to someone, what they hear is "bite balls" and what they think about is sex. Bytes doesn't have that association, but it's confusing as it's just a general term when talking about computers.

I understand the snowball effect that lead to the name, but changing it may indeed be better for mass adoption. Something with "chain" works well for crypto, for example Bytechain?

[Sindbad]

Maybe call them simply Balls and Blackballs

Hi, for join the airdrop in November can i connect my BTC accounts from exchangers?
There is a minimum ammount of BTC that you must hold?

Exchanges would either have to sign a message with your BTC address or send small amount FROM that address in order to claim your GBs. But that's highly unlikely to happen. There is no minimum you get 0.00625 GB for each BTC you hold on Nov 4th.

I agree with this. Changing the base trading unit over a few decimal places actually will increase volume. It is psychology. People will be more inclined to buy 1000 coins of a 17 cent coin than one 170 dollar coin. Even though they are spending same amount, they get "more" when the price is less.

There is also a puzzle maker that has been taking Bytes for his puzzles over at https://www.cubicdissection.com/ and giving a 10% discount. Is there a reason why he hasn't been added to the Cashback Program yet? In my opinion this is clearly a very reputable business and would be a good addition to the program!

I don't buy it sorry. So shall we start trading mbits instead of bitcoins? or satoshis even!
No man I don't think is that. Unfortunately, even the shittiest coins that are listed on exchanges have a marketing plan. This coin gets very low attention. I don't know if it's because of the DAG, or because it has witnesses. I really don't know.
What we all know is that our community is quite lively but we don't get much light on us. This is it

[yinyangwinwang]

Man did I ever buy near the top here and am getting destroyed. I thought byteballs had a lot more going for it than it did. Maybe it is this fork stuff that is causing all these alts to crash. Unfortunate I really like this project,

and either way gotta hodl now

Yes, I think that psychologically it is not really up for debate if people have a higher willingness to pay for a "cheaper" item. So if BTC was priced in mBTC, many people that couldn't bring themselves to buy "expensive" bitcoin at $500 would have bought a few mBTC for 50 cents.

[byteball3r]

At least I can watch the GB/GBB market with some sanity. Much more stable than the GB/BTC price. And it's getting more liquid thanks to freebe!

[SaintFlow]

I was asked if I still believe in Byteball.

The fundamentals are as solid as can be. Development is happening unhassled by the constant proclamations of death. It is still a big cognitive dissonance for me to look at the price and the project. Whenever I bought the price dropped more.

I do not belong to the people that scream for marketing. There is so much marketing for short term adrenalin markets going on that our plea for a good long term community is only heared by the select few that check for facts. The ICO-Altcoin craze will go on several months longer. After that there is time to tell the difference between shit and shiny.

We grow from the ground up with the rain of airdroped magick internet money. Face that fact. And with the long airdrop you have a inflation at work that is baffeling to behold and "unfair to the unexpierenced avarage guy who can plan for next 3 days market spike".

Get your mind ready to speak not of cryptos but of Blockchains and DAG. Let people ask: what is a DAG. And then you can speak of Byteball.

Do I still believe in Byteball? I wouldn't be here otherwise.

[SatoNatomato]

Byteball is still the only functional DAG coin, without "baby training wheels".

Still the only implemented consensus algorithm in which higher amount of transactions, make it only faster. More transactions, higher throughput.

How is lightening/raiden progressing? Those still have limits.

Byteball is limitless.

[CryptoRobert]

Was there an airdrop on the 5th of Oct?

Dev decided to skip this month, and will resume next month on Nov 4.

no airdrop and the coin went down all the time... looks like something is very wrong...

This is just the painful way in which what's wrong is getting corrected. The wrong thing is that there are sooo many people who have adopted Byteball only for short term speculation purposes, and they are now selling to those who are interested long term, who are less and so the price is tanking. At some point, in an either near or distant future, only holders will be left and price will raise again.
