BitBay OFFICIAL BITBAY Thread Smart Contracts Decentralized Markets Rolling Peg

[boldandbratsche]

The fee to fund the upkeep would still be nothing compared to Ebay and such, because the system could remain highly automated and trustless on a peer to peer level with the DDE.

I think comparing it to eBay isn't the right move for now.  Down the line, sure, but right now don't target eBay users.  Target people using Bitcoin to buy things, because those are the people who would be willing to put in the extra 15 minutes needed to use this compared to what they're currently doing.  The eBay audience would have to put in a lot more effort to make the switch to using this.

The 'BitBay Lite' can be the exact same client software, but with a different skin, so it's super easy to make from what currently exists.  If you're looking for something to add, add on something that would make it easier for sellers to use, like a way to organize orders, shipping addresses, and the order status.  We already have a reason for buyers to want to use it, so now we need to make sellers really WANT to use it.

I should specify that in the BitBay Lite, in order to initiate the contract, the buyer would have to pay immediately.  Otherwise, they would be able to initiate and void contracts for low costs that would cost the seller large amounts of money.

Hey, so I have some ideas about marketing, but I have an immediate issue.  I tried downloading the BitBay PC Client version 1.26, and Avast antivirus flagged it as a virus.  I'm not sure why it did, but now I can't install it?

Avast flagged it? I use Avast myself, and no problem. Where did you download?

Bitbay.market----

Hey I checked and nothing changed in this build. I reverted to how I used to elevate to admin and that was the only change which never used to trip up avast.

However avast has been the most obnoxious one. We have sent a ticket to them in the past. Some antivirus doesn't like frozen python which is sort of funny because its open source when its python because the interpreter is built into the exe. You would think its safer.

So you can still probably get this build to run just have avast put it on your exception list and run as admin. I will look at this.

Avast has a history of being unreasonable with Python. I submitted a ticket to them. They must have updated their algorithm in their last update because Craig says it effects the older builds too. Probably just add to exceptions for now. You can always build from source code too.

Hey what's up guys.  I'm looking at featuring BitBay in an upcoming episode of the Crypto Times.

What features differentiate BitBay as the next big thing?

That's great! 

I saw your post in another thread. I thought you might want David to answer that himself, so I sent him a message. He isn't online atm, but he'll respond when he gets here.

Well, crypto is all about "programmable money" but almost no coin is taking advantage of that. Bitcoin is too basic to be effective as a currency. BitBay has the rolling decentralized peg which creates different speeds of liquid funds. It will be done later this year. We feel like this will redefine money.

Add to the fact that we have unbreakable contracts which I could and have talked about for hours at a time. The ways in which unbreakable contracts revolutionizes law and not to mention international business is one that not even Ethereum can do better.

And lastly we were the worlds first decentralized markets a whole year ahead of Open Bazaar.

So honestly not sure why this coin isn't in the top 10. I guess investors just don't realize it. But will one day... at least thats what we are counting on.

Hi
Got a problem with BitBay wallet. I actually thought i lost it after buying a new computer and forgetting to save the backup, but I think i have found the original wallet.dat. I download the newest qt wallet and replaced the wallet.dat with the old one in appdata/roaming/bitpay/ but i am getting this error -

 Warning: error reading wallet.dat! All keys read correctly, but transaction data or address book entries might be missing or incorrect.
and the client fails to start.

Any ideas?
tks

Bitpay? Is that a typo or your folder actually looks like that?

No I don't think you are understanding how these contracts work. They are unbreakable. Double deposit is simultaneous deposits by both sides and the payment for goods and services is advanced as well. So there is no way for either side to void a contract. Everything requires mutual consent or both parties lose funds

hey

where can i find information about the dev team (size and so on) and how the project is funded?
was not able to find anything in op and off website

thanks

this is what i've been saying deep pocket whales want to know who behind this project without go digging around. at this point we still don't know who behind it.

No you need to dig just a little bit then lol David Zimbeck is the main dev, as long as shit is delivered I don't see why people would need to know much else with a real life identity to put to the project that has been around since 2014.

such stupid advice from a newbie. i investing base on solid evidence to safeguard my funds, in this crypto world you never want to invest with someone just coming out of a rat hole and claiming to be god coder and know everything. if David Zimbeck is the main dev of this coin then there no reason to hide from it, unless there is a reason behind it. my recommendations to you in this crypto world, first to never ever invest/involve with dev who just coming out of a rat hole, second never ever invest with someone who have more than one coin.

at least a name  

but before i invest anything in bitbay i need to know the team size and more other info's
why not create something like this: https://pivx.org/pivx-team/

i don't expect real names, i like my privacy too

ask your self:
why should i invest 10'000 - 20'000 $ in bitbay if there is not even a "about us" section on homepage?
why should i invest so much money if i don't know the team size

the risk is to high if this is a one person show no matter how good he/she is. You never know about a accident, heart attack, alien abduction   or whatever.
so don't expect much money if you are not willing to give out more info.

last question so far:
can you explain (in few short words) the key difference between bitbay and sys?

please note: i don't want to start a coin vs coin war here. bitbay looks interesting and i respect any legit blockchain project!

thanks and good luck all

Are you fucking serious, a dev who came from a rat hole, dude he created bithalo and was a big part of helping the blackcoin community. Don't ever look down on a lower rank you fool especially when your damn account is painted red because you're a loser spammer. My advice for you is don't invest your lunch money in anything because you clearly have no clue.

[dzimbeck]

The comments above bentach are a joke. I'm the only person who controls Halo and committed over 50,000 lines of code. BitHalo/BlackHalo and BitBay. And also, why would you want a dev who created more than one coin? The devs who create a lot of coins are usually bastards because they are unable to commit to a project. Not saying I wouldn't do freelance work to build a coin for someone, but not manage it no. Things don't happen on your time table bentach. I realized we didn't put my name on the OP and said we can update it. I'm doing like 15 fucking things at once be patient. Unless you want to be the coder? Have fun with that one...    . Yeah I've got an idea, someone else be the coder and let me be the investor. We will see how long that will last  

To be honest we figured everyone knew, I don't think our core team even noticed it. It was my name the founders used to raise the money. Without it, this project wouldn't have existed. There was a bunch of articles on myself and on Halo and as  bentach has pointed out, those articles aren't on the OP. It's on my list of things to do. I will bring this up with the core guys on slack.

While you wait, be civil. There isn't a whale in Bitcoin who isn't aware of the fact that I'm the only coder of Halo and simply downloading the software will show you what a monster of a coding job it was for me. More than 3 years of solid work.
