Obyte: Totally new consensus algorithm + private untraceable payments

[byteball3r]

Many people would like to see a name change so Byteball will be interesting to a broader audience of potential users. You can informally vote here (follow link in text post): https://www.reddit.com/r/ByteBall/comments/7we36c/should_the_byteball_name_be_changed_please_vote/

Quite an interesting idea of the project GBYTE itself, but on the principle of how they started and how high the price was before - I do not think that I will be able to return to the previous level

Unless a coin dies, which of course can happen, or history proves that at some point, sooner or later, limited supply and rising user base leads every coin to reach its ATH again. And Byteball is a very good coin, unique and for sure won't die. So...

Is there an easy way to convert BlackByteballs into Byteballs? I read about a bot directly in the client which let someone convert B to BB. But I could not find a tutorial how I do it. Any help on this?

Cryptopia has been locking GBYTE for at least 2 months now.

Today I filed a 2nd ticket demanding that they release users' GBYTE.

I encourage you to do the same.

Stealing the time value of money is one thing, but if we get to the March distro and Cryptopia is still locking users' funds, it will be a massive financial crime. (Yes I know exchanges are scummy and steal from users all the time).

This is really worrying. If you fail to withdraw your coins in time for the airdrop and the exchange gets the airdrop, they might still find an excuse to retain your coins. But if they prevent you from withdrawing your coins in time for the airdrop, I would call that an outright scam.

IF there is another airdrop (which I doubt there will be, at least in that form), the exchange's Byteball-address will be excluded. So as the exchange has nothing to gain, calling it a scam is not correct. It's just negligence. Extremely stupid, because the reputation of an exchange is all important. I for one will never ever do business there again. Luckily I don't have any coins there anymore.

Edit: also opened a ticket there to help out.

Thanks for opening a ticket.

Each user on Cryptopia has their own Byteball deposit address. So in order to exclude them, Byteball would need a list of all of those addresses, or some successful investigative work to figure out exactly what those addresses are.

Also, exchanges have not been excluded from airdrops in the past, afaik.

In any case, stealing the time value of money IS a scam. Byteball is not an obscure coin or a coin with tech problems.

Exchanges are making money hand over fist, and yet they do everything possible to STEAL more. It's the height of greed and evil really.

I'm unable to send BB there, using android wallet. It says "sending...." for a few minutes than it says "syncing...." forever, and nothing happen.

Any advice?

Thanks

Hi, I own a discord server for discussing DAG coins. Every DAG is listed and has its own channel.

Feel free to join us ! See ya.

Airdrops to deposit addresses end up in your account. I've seen it happen on Bittrex too (although later Bittrex started consolidating funds into their own address to make sure they get it instead of the customer).

Users' deposit addresses are under the control of the exchange. They can and will do whatever they want with them, and as you mentioned, they will change their policy at any time.

Summary: Please file a ticket with Cryptopia demanding that they re-enable GBYTE withdrawals. The distro is less than 3 weeks away and they have been locking GBYTE for at least 2 months.

Stress test N°2 is scheduled  tuesday Feb 13th at 10 am UTC

During this second test - instead of sending a bunch of posts to the DAG and see how it digests it - I will send a flow of posts at a continuous rate and will compare at the end with the effective rate they are handled by the DAG. The goal of this new test is to get tx rate figures under sustainable posts conditions. This is closer to normal usage of the network where many users send posts in a continuous flow.
We will also log the confirmation time.

See you in front of the explorer!

read the post about problems with the synchronization of the wallet. I also had similar problems

[Michail1]

Michail1, you're right everything is perfect and nothing should be improved. I finally realized it after all of your whining about every suggestion and reality bending.

Let me jog your memory of when you said verification is a gamble.

Your response is akin to saying... Why shouldn't I be refunded by the casino if the ball lands on Red when I put my money on Black?   I mean, I intended to bet on Black, so it should be considered a win even though it was my mistake for physically putting it on Red.   Just like all the people investing on known Ponzi scams working out great until it fails and then complain that they lost their money and want it back.  LOL.  If someone invests in something and it makes money, they are happy.  If they invest and it goes down, it's everyone's fault but their own and they feel entitled to get everything back.

Well, you just proved you have nothing good or meaningful to say.

I never said everything was perfect or that nothing should be improved.  I wasn't whining about anything; that's what you're doing.  Continue with your reality bending.  With your lie right from the start, I stopped reading everything else you had to say.  Grow up.

Most exchanges move coins once you deposit them using your deposit address. If I buy Bytes on an exchange, it is highly unlikely that it will be present at my deposit address. I will just have an entry in the exchange's internal ledger, stating that I own a certain number of Bytes. I certainly will not benefit from any airdrop.

Any news on the march airdrop, I could really do with some good news!

AFAIK news about march airdrop will be released next week.

That's good news. Many are waiting anxiously for the next airdrop since it has been a long time from the last airdrop, November as I recall? The strategy for some of the big investors is to wait out the completion of the free distribution before making any serious investment.

Of course it is a risky play to invest in something when such a massive % is retained by one person whom also does not take note of anything the community suggests and acts with 100% impunity, and where the implied distribution pattern is altered on the fly.

Lucky for tonych he appears honest, reliable and skillful otherwise  byteball would be ranked lower in mc terms than it already is.

[soldat13]

Next airdrop in march is the last one ?

[-doubleU-]

no one can say this today, news about march airdrop (and all other) will be communicated  from Tony this week.

[Jedgar]

I think the silence from tonych means  March is not the month when airdrop should be expected. Otherwise he would communicate already on this matter. I am in very doubt that there will be any future airdrop as either he or his team is likely to  conceive  new  distribution scheme.

I opened another ticket as well. Is there a thread which is targeting this issue? If not, I think that a bunch of us (Legendary/Hero) could start either a scam accusation thread or a specific thread to wake Cryptopia up.
