Why would it be a same thing if the original thread is here? Don't install apps from random Bitcointalk threads that use the same name as original project.

That thread says almost the same words about Obyte but don't even mention the original topic. That is why it looks very suspicious for me and I  wouldn't just  install but even follow any link over there.

Oh, hey Cryptohunter is back! This must mean altcoin season is not far off.
Really?  Huh
I have never had any experience with altcoin season and the activity of Cryptohunter in the forum. Can you clarify a little bit about that correlation between altcoin season and Cryptohunter, please.
Quote
And I believe Obyte is in a position to rally among the first coins in the new season. I would forget about Bittrex, the listing there doesn't help spread awareness. The better exchange would be Binance if someone would just introduce Obyte to the exchange owners.
First or not, I don't care. What I care about is how many percentage Obyte will rally when it does it, that's all I need for my investment with Obyte.
Binance is a great exchange for Obyte even their total daily liquidity has fallen recent months and I would prefer to see Obyte on Binance someday.

I think binance likely has a lot of "their own " volume. I mean look how they treated blocknet.

If we are solid on bittrex then that is good.

Good to hear their is a good amount of development taking place.
Still stocking up to replenish what those scumbags at cryptopia grabbed.

It's all well saying remove the BB from exchanges, everytime I had attempted this from there is had wallet offline. Admittedly that was quite a while back before I took some time out.

I am going to consolidate into only the most promising and durable long term projects now. The dilution death of alts will bring the rest to zero over time.

Good to see some community actions still here. A lot of projects even good ones communities are pretty much dead.

Of course they will return with the next alt wave but they are killing the chances of their project getting a good pump and all the advertising that comes with it by letting it sink off a cliff however dull the alt market is right now.

Even great projects require some adoption or at least long term holders that give something back.

If we are solid on bittrex then that is good.

Bittrex is solid, but last year they de-listed many coins which couldn't prove that they are not a security and recently they moved their non-US legal entity from Malta to Liechtenstein (Obyte Foundation and its bank account is also in Liechtenstein). https://medium.com/bittrex/bittrex-international-update-bittrex-global-launch-2f64fca503fd

With the change of legal entity, they also stopped to service certain country residents https://bittrex.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/360034965072-Important-Information-for-Bittrex-International-Customers
If you are in any of these listed countries, you have until November 18 to withdraw all your cryptocurrencies. So, I would not recommend holding any crypto on any exchange for other than when you need to actually exchange it, no matter how solid they are. Keeping Obyte on centralized exchanges doesn't make any sense either because it is cheap to send and doesn't take more than 15-20 minutes to be fully confirmed.

For those who have trouble accessing Bittrex US or Bittrex Global, there are multiple coin swapping services listed on Obyte website. https://obyte.org/#exchanges

It is a very detailed, succint and interesting presentation, I like it. Congratulations, tonych!

I am interested in the confirmation time that presented in Obyte's Whitepaper (at the page #19) as below
We estimate the best confirmation times to be around 30 seconds; this   is only reachable   if the   flow of new units is large enough so that   the witnesses earn more from witnessing commissions than they spend for posting their own units.
So in real time, and in average speed, how long does it takes to get confirmation for one transaction with Obyte?
I wonder that the DAG-based blockchain still has risks of network congestions, right? Temporarily, network congestion maybe not a big problem with Obyte network but in the future the team should have plans to prevent it happens.

Suggestion:
The list of exchanges in OP should be updated.

Volume of Obyte is too low and concentrated on the Bittrex exchange. I hope that Obyte team can spread the coin to other exchanges with good volume. Volume is source of growth for any coin, and it is extremely ridiculous to see the very low daily volume of a good coin like Obyte

I could be wrong, but I understand that 30 seconds confirmation speed needs around 3 serially posted transactions per second, continuously. I think the witnesses are coded that they will not post themselves faster than once in 30 seconds and they are also coded that if there is not enough transactions then they post at least once in 10-20 minutes. So, the current confirmation speed we see is purely because there is not enough constant usage on Obyte network even though Obyte nodes can handle constantly 30 TPS (and much higher temporary peaks). There is no hard-coded limits how much TPS Obyte network can handle, just SSD and CPU are the limits.

Suggestion:
The list of exchanges in OP should be updated.

Volume of Obyte is too low and concentrated on the Bittrex exchange. I hope that Obyte team can spread the coin to other exchanges with good volume. Volume is source of growth for any coin, and it is extremely ridiculous to see the very low daily volume of a good coin like Obyte

Yeah, OP probably needs to be updated, but the most up-to-date exchanges are on English language page, some other languages are not even rebranded to Obyte. https://obyte.org/#exchanges

Volume is kind of catch-22, without volume, there is little interest and can't get more volume because there is not enough interest. Adding a coin to random exchange won't magically make more volume, unless you pay for wash trading service, which many un-regulated exchanges offer. The more people use available coin swapping services, the more volume there will be on Bittrex because most of them are connected to Bittrex anyways.

It means when Obyte becomes more common in crypto, and more people use the coin for their transactions beside trading, I think there are minor risks of network congestion. Technically, the quality of hardware partially determine speed of confirmation. I consider it as minor risks because I think nowadays most of people and crypto enthusiasts in particular use devices that are good enough to process required things, on Obyte network, in particular.

Exchanges themselves can not help price and volume increasing but there is a mutual correlation between volume, price and interests from community. Without interest, people will not buy, invest or trade that do affect volume; without volume people will hesitate to buy, trade and invest that in turn will affect back to volume. Volume and interests together will affect price of Obyte.

No, the quality of the hardware doesn't affect the confirmation speed.
Confirmation speed is linked to how fast the main chain index grows, basically how many serial transactions are made by different wallets.
Quality of hardware doesn't affect the TPS either, type of disk, database, CPU and optimizations of the software code determine that. At the moment, current tech stack is fine because we don't use even 1/30 of the capability. In the future, other implementations using different tech stack can be written for Obyte protocol.

It is, but the features that enable this kind of thing are currently available only on testnet, so you will need to wait a little bit more with the dying until it gets released to mainnet Tongue

Thanks, I'm not going to die and asked cuz the topic how to pass cryptocurrency on to heirs is widely discussed by users of Russian board , and now, I can tell them of the available solution designed on Obyte platform.

How is this related to Obyte? Is this an invitation to call IOTA a scam? In Obyte thread?

IOTA is probably not a scam, but that's pretty much the only good thing to say about it. The words "scam" is so misused by cryptocurrency people. Like the quote above, "delusion" is more accurate word. IOTA is DLT, just not very good one.

Last time I visited this thread was a year ago.
As far as I can see people here are still arguing if Obyte
is scam or not, if management decisions are good or not.

Either a lot of people invested and are now dissatisfied due to price
or there is something wrong with the whole coin.

Whatever it is, Obyte is a popular coin, using different (than most) distribution method
which will bring variety to the whole blockchain experiment. Good luck.

IOTA is scam because IOTA isn't a DLT, but listed, managed as a DLT, since YEARs here, on bitcointalk.org at this time also. Please ADMINs, do what is to do, in  a such situation. We (community of bitcointalk.org) shouldn't scam people with scam projects as IOTA i.e. ...

How is this related to Obyte? Is this an invitation to call IOTA a scam? In Obyte thread?

IOTA is probably not a scam, but that's pretty much the only good thing to say about it. The words "scam" is so misused by cryptocurrency people. Like the quote above, "delusion" is more accurate word. IOTA is DLT, just not very good one.

OByte use DAG as IOTA trying also to use - since years, but IOTA can't solve DAG well. IOTA seems to be the "first" and "big" DAG project, but IOTA isn't a true DLT, because the centralized structure through Coordinator. IOTA will be sold as DLT, but IOTA isn't a DLT project. So is IOTA a simple scam.

I agree that the existence of the Coordinator makes it horrible solution, but it's still a DLT.

DLT stands for distributed ledger technology, not decentralized ledger technology.
DAG is just a database structure, a graph of nodes (transactions) that should be linked so they form specific direction and not circle back to previous nodes (transactions).
Same as blockchain is just a database structure called linked list of nodes (blocks), technically it's also graph if you take account all orphaned nodes (blocks). Some say that blockchain needs to be decentralized and PoW too, but the main point that makes blockchain a blockchain is the Byzantine Fault Tolerance, which is also requirement for all DLTs. What makes the DLT a DLT is that the data is distributed and all nodes (databases) come to same conclusion (they add only valid blocks/transaction to the database in same order on all nodes even if they are received in different order). This solves the double-spend problem.
Most mainstream people now call everything a blockchain, while what they actually mean is DLT.

Both blockchain and DAG cryptocurrencies are DLTs. What DLT is not - a single database or multiple replications of a single database, which is operated by same operator.

Obyte was a DLT even when all witnesses were operated by Tony. Now with 2 witnesses replaced, Obyte is even more decentralized than how Libra was suppose to launch (15/100 validators = 15%, 2/12 witnesses = 16%), but main difference is that Obyte witnesses don't vote on valid transactions or double-spends, they just provide transaction ordering with their own transactions.

Cryptocurrency platform where the governance entity can censor transactions is still a DLT, just not very good one (Hedera Hashgraph, EOS). Bitcoin can be censored too if mining pools collude, but even then, it is still DLT. For example, mining pools could agree not to add any Satoshis transactions to new blocks and Satoshi would be fucked because there is no way he could build a mining farm that powerful now to compete with existing mining pools (unless he already controls one). It will still be blockchain and DLT, even if they do censor Satoshi.
