Obyte: Totally new consensus algorithm + private untraceable payments

[CryptKeeper]

with beeb going offline. Are there any alternatives to blackbyte trading besides p2p in the wallet ?

Sure, use Freebe http://freebe.byte-ball.com/

i also have received a message telling me about the poll for lowering the measurement from the giga to megabytes. i think this is a peripheral issue. it might get some more liquidity in, but i do not see a major impact over the entire infrastructure.

Hello.

Where can i buy or sell blackbytes?  I need it for testing:)

Use Beeb-Bot to exchange BlackBytes for Bytes directly in the wallet. I've used it several times and it works well.

https://www.beeb-bot.com/

[reminder] BlackBytes Exchange BEEB is to close on october the 25th.

All customers MUST withdraw their blackbytes before this date or they will be lost (use the 'w' key when paired with BEEB).

[repeating] After this date blackybtes will be lost.

this is major. i have am order in there. not looked on that for a while now. this is why it is always safer to own your shit rather than leaving it out there. if i would'n have received the poll message i would have missed this for sure.

That's why I decided to announce the closure more than once month before it happens actually, so that everybody can have time to withraw their BB.

Could you recommend an alternative bot for exchanging Bytes <-> Blackbytes if BeebBot closes?

Does anyone know when Cryptopia Byteball deposit will work again?

Deposit feature says:

Currency Status: In Maintenance

Unfortunately, we are unable to accept your deposit at this time.

Reason: 21 August 2018 - GBYTE Wallet placed in maintenance while we investigate network issues. We apologise for this and seek your patience while we work to resolve the matter.

I don't know, but some months ago (around January or February) my coins never reached Cryptopia.
I sent my coins, which I received as payments from Byteball signature campaign, simply sent small amount to the one to check.
Never reached, honestly.
Hope that, this time you maybe get more luck than me.

Anyone here who wants to buy 0,3 GB? I want to sell for Bitcoin. I prefer a honest user.

I can not register on Bittrex and Upbit. Cryptopia does not work for some reason.

The LuckyBytes lottery that runs on the Byteball platform is provably fair. Have you tried it yet?

Try Bisq, there are some GByte offers there

To scale down the denomination of Byteball on exchanges (from Gigabytes to Megabytes or lower) has been debated for a while now, mainly for reasons of marketing. But someone has pointed out that there are deeper reasons for doing that: to define a Byteball unity as 1 Gigabyte would be like defining an unity of dollar as 1 Million $. Of course this does not make any sense if you are looking for mass adoption, like Byteball is:

Ordinary investors don't really think that deeply. A lot of them just go out and buy the cheapest coin they can find, hoping it will explode like Bitcoin. We need those investors, just like we need the true believers of Byteball.
Denominating GB as the basic unit of Byteball ensures that they pass on.

You are sharing my same opinion without fully realizing it. In fact, not many of the community seem to have understood my post. As soon as you post something just a bit out of the usual common places and stereotypes people look at you as a fool (or an hopium smoker). Even here in the crypto world. Even here in the Byteball community. Sad.

I disagree about needing to change the denomonation. 1 bitcoin is a large sum of money but that doesn't do it any harm. The unit of GByte is quite convenient and nowhere near as big an amount as 1 bitcoin. The denomination is not the problem. If the price rises to millions of dollars we seemlessly start quoting in lesser amounts. Its no big deal, when theres a need.

A lot of them just go out and buy the cheapest coin they can find, hoping it will explode like Bitcoin. We need those investors, just like we need the true believers of Byteball.

This is true, we need those investors. The distribution has chased those investors away. For the time being. Savvy investors who like byteball will not buy now they will wait until the distribution is ending. There is no incentive to invest now while supply still needs to increase by 30 to 40% Or they give up bored if it becomes the never ending story.

Some people don't really get it. The only reason people buy Bitcoins is because they hope to sell it 10X or 100X higher. They consider it a store of value which possibly can make them rich.
Byteball is supposedly aiming to become a form of money people can actually use. Widespread adoption is the mission. For that purpose the base unity you are using to count the currency must be an everyday life quantity. Gigabytes are the "million of dollars" of Byteball - that doesn't make any sense for a currency you are actually planning to use. You need to scale it down.
Or perhaps the mission instead IS to make Byteball a store of value like Bitcoin. Then this should be stated clearly. But I don't think Tony is thinking like that, which is good, because what the world need is a cryptocurrency people can actually easily use. As a store of value, Bitcoin is already enough.

Yes it is supposedly aiming for that (money you can spend) - (bitcoin started out with that aim too). Its a long long way from that at the moment. I have never yet seen anything I can buy with byteball. When it gets there and one byte is something more valuable than a tiny fraction of a cent (or penny) then maybe that will be a practical unit to quote price with. Besides money needs to be a store of value or it won't be much good as money

If you have never seen anything you can buy with Byteball then perhaps you should book yourself a little vacation in Milano, Italy, where a number of shops are already accepting Bytes as a payment:

https://byteball.org/milan/

I guess other lists of shop would exist also for other cities.
Sometimes to see something it's just sufficient to look.

Use cryptox.pl, no KYC, imediate withdrawals, best price, lowest fee.

I used the cryptox.pl exchange around 4 months ago when I could not verify my account on Bittrex.
After succesfully verified, I switched back to Bittrex till now.
My experience with Cryptox.pl was good, but the problem is daily volume on the one is too low.
It's hard to sell or buy coins at your expected price.

Volume raised since then, now it is about 20% total GBYTE volume.

coinlib shows fake volume for Bittrex and Upbit  as both exchanges show the same volume as their.

[neon23]

Thanks, I did not know the exchange because it was not listed on coinmarketcap markets. I signed up and use crypto.pl instead now. Thanks again.

Maybe other sites become more reliable:
https://coinlib.io/coin/GBYTE/Byteball
https://exchangewar.info/coinprice?gbyte_btc
https://coinpaprika.com/exchanges/cryptox/

looks like cryptox in no 1 in GBYTE volume.

what kind of major impact are you talking about?

it is a very important issue if you notice the fact there were multiple threads daily on the main alt board demonstrating most new users do consider byteball more expensive than say iota or many other projects with far larger caps

per exchange unit price is what many new investors/traders/gamblers look at

While some projects dedicated to IoT still don't have a product, Byteball is on Arduino!

Wondered if anyone can help me. Does anyone have any information on how many bytes have so far been distributed? eg 60% ? 70% ?

Also how is it going with witnesses? Are all still centralised with Tonych ? Or are there any new witnesses on the network ?

Is there some place I can go online to check these things and stay up to date with progress?

These are the critical issues facing byteball


Cheers

Almost 69% distributed, see https://explorer.byteball.org/#MZ4GUQC7WUKZKKLGAS3H3FSDKLHI7HFO for the remaining amount.
Still all Tony, in the process of decentralizing the witnesses, announcements coming soon.
Answers to both questions are in this thread, so just follow this thread basically.
