Price is already at 0.008 on bittrex. This will go further down if this stupid policies won´t stop.
1. Why its not possible to sellout Byteball stakeholder proportionately and not via Lottery ?
2. Why does someone with more then 1000 GB Byteball being penalized with only getting 0.01 Points for the airdrop instead of 0.1 Points like regular ? What it the incentive, should they sell their stakes ?
Did you joined cryptocurrencies last week? Byteball is volatile, for very long period it was around 0.007 (it went even as low as 0.006), this week rallied to 0.010 and now has come down to 0.008 again. 1. Not sure what you mean, there are even bigger distribution than this draw, other distribution are still running and the last draw winner has not dumped their winnings. Only ones that harm Byteball price are the FUDsters and weak hands. 2. There was too much whale dominance for the first week draw, so after first draw, rules were changed to give people with smaller amount of bytes fairer amount of points to compete with whales. Ignorant, check my profile and you will see I am longer here then you or do I have to send you another screenshot? 1. You didnt answer my question. Why is the weekly draw airdrop distributed with a lottery instead of sharing the rewards along all participants ? 2. So people accumulating Byteballs over the time to help growing the community are being punished right now ? Fairness and transparency to keep the loyal crowd is imo more important than anything else. 1. You have been so long here and yet you still haven't figured out that 1 un-attested address is not as same as 1 participant? Any un-attested user could create as many wallets as they like. If I generate 1000 wallets and you only 1 and there is no way to tell the difference then obviously I get 1000 times more rewards than you if the distribution is distributed based on participants. 2. Nobody is punished, you are not required to pay anything to participate in the draw, but being attested helps. The goal is to give both fair chance to win even when one is clearly richer than other and even when one found out about Byteball earlier than the other. In real life, in order to participate in lottery, the richest people have the highest chance to win with the lottery because they can buy lot more lottery tickets than poor. 1. If I have 1000 wallets with 1 GB on it, it should give me obviously the same amount of points as if I have 1 wallet with 1000 GB on it. Easy mathematics, no ? If you refer to the real-name attestation and the complicated point system, it needs to be removed as their is no need to have it anyway. 2. Its cleary a punishing of loyal and over the time, Byteball accumulating people as the motivation is to reward only users with low amount of Byteballs or user which will cheat the system creating various real-name attestations.

It is a common myth that Bitcoin is ruled by a majority of miners. This is not true. Bitcoin miners "vote" on the ordering of transactions, but that's all they do. They can't vote to change the network rules.

What is the point of giving the bytes proportionately how much they already have? There is 21% left to distribute, what is the point if all that gets distributed to existing addresses. Point of draw bot distribution is that everybody has chance to win without any risk (you don't have to buy a lottery ticket). Winner of first week draw was long time loyal hodler, I didn't notice that address spending any bytes and they had done real name attestation back in January, just 4 days after announcing real name attestation bot. Most likely they started using Byteball even earlier and got that much bytes with Bitcoin moondrops. It is kind of funny, you are here on Bitcointalk saying that draw bot favors poor accounts and somebody on Reddit is arguing that it favors whales. It's true that first draw favored whales, but the rules changed right after first winner was announced and it should be more fair for both now. Let's see who gets randomly picked on 21st.

As soon as the rebranding comes it would be nice to have a parallel Rebranded-Byteball ANN thread which is strictly self-moderated so as to keep all nonsensical discussions out and have actually a cognitive value there. Nonsensical posts can then continue to be posted here, without the risk of getting spoiled by some occasional clever post.

Freebe and luckybytes close end of the year pxrunes: Dear users, since I was unable to find a sufficient successor to support and develop this chat bot, I will have to shut it down with the end of this year. It was a very fun time and I really enjoyed this great and kind community. I belive byteball will be a success but sadly I will be unable to contribute to it in the coming year.
luckybytes Please make sure to spend all tickets until the end of the year. I will fill up any still open games with my own tickets in the end.
freebe Please make sure to withdraw your funds, please note that since the funds stay in your smart wallet you will still be able to withdraw your funds after freebe shut down.
which exchanges for blackbytes are left?

which exchanges for blackbytes are left? A (supposedly) decentralized currency with important but centralized applications. Does anyone else notice that something smells awfully here? - No, I don't think so. As long as there are free balls, no matter if they are worth something.

I've been a skeptic from the very beginning regarding the new distibution method by the way of a lottery, and today I've noticed that the team has become aware too of the fact that there are problems in this method of distribution. This is their post on Medium: https://medium.com/byteball/distribution-methods-revisited-we-need-you-b0a38800b722The laws of statistics make it obvious that most of the bytes to be distributed would end up in the bags of whales. The first winner has been a whale and with the current rules most of the future winners would likely to be whales as well. Simple math. Glad to see that the team has realized that. This would obviously cause even more centralisation of the coin, not more decentralisation. One of the problems of Byteball distribution has always been that it was not designed to favour decentralisation, as it claimed to aim at, but at the creation of whales. I have addressed this problem as early as May 2017 in this very thread, for example in this post of mine: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1608859.msg19154657#msg19154657...but alas I was not listened to, and people even accused me of hating the rich or whatever, totally missing my point. This has led to the creation of mega-whales who possibly couldn't care less about Byteball, perhaps because the devs of concurrent platforms, and this problem is now here to stay since they have the power to crash the price at will. It will probably take ages to get this fact out of the way. However I'm happy to see that the team is now finally realizing their mistakes quite rapidly and they are asking advise to the community. Right now I don't have a solution to suggest for a better distribution, but someone else may.

Can you give any reference, which "laws of statistics" are you talking about? Formula would be nice, but link to any scientific paper would be better. And what do you consider whale? http://draw.byteball.org/ considers whale somebody who have more than 500GB, so only 45% are considered whales (that was 70-80% during first draw), this makes it very likely that next winner is not a whale. First draw is irrelevant today because it had different rules than are today. Blog post doesn't say that future winners will be whales as well, it says: We knew that it would favor whales just as the Moondrops did, that’s just a fact of life, but we didn’t expect whale dominance to be as high as it was for the first draw. We changed the rules for attested whales, but the effect of that change will be seen on the 21st of December draw. It doesn't say it, but rules were changed for un-attested whales too, previously it was 0.1 points per GB, but was changed to 0.01 points per GB after first draw.

"Bytes price equal to 31.491 USD at 2018-12-21, but your current investment may be devalued in the future."https://walletinvestor.com/forecast/byteball-bytes-predictionThe existing methods contribute very little to an increase in the spread, they tend to have the opposite effect. Market laws are still ignored.

What's the point of privacy coin if it's traded on regular exchange? It needs to be traded on de-centralized exchange, but unfortunately there has been low interest for them on de-centralized exchanges, so the last one that I know will close end of this year. Hopefully there will other exchange operators next year who would be interested of blackbytes, but I doubt it will have enough volume for long time in order to be added to CMC.
