I got mine! Very cool

The DNS Seeds list all current nodes, so they handle it all.

Does it not need nodes written in a conf file? I cannot find any in the OP. Do the two DNS Seeds take care of everything?

Spring is here, and so is the AppleByte T-shirt!


Get yours, just like the one worn by lead actress Tara Westwood in the feature film, Detours (coming Summer 2015)!



By contributing $25 or more to AppleByte's Indiegogo campaign.

Thanks
 
The user community is growing like crazy, over 14,500 on Twitter, lots of tipping. The art community is really grasping the idea.

It won't be long until the crypto community sees the real value.

I really like how you have kept up work with ABY. I hope a lot more acceptance soon! Ill go and spread a few tips myself!

Check out this recent snapshot listing some of the artists given applebytes by their fans on Twitter!

AppleByte's Announcement of the Phase II $1,000,000 fund raising campaign
 is posted on 244 newspapers and TV stations, reaching 225,717,800 people!



Here are some of the newspapers and TV stations running the story:





Here is a sample from the Miami Herald:

The pool server has limits so that the ABY users who mine with their CPU are not knocked out of mining by miners with big asic chips. The pool also pays a bonus to CPU & GPU miners.

It can take a couple of hours. There are plenty of nodes and two DNS Seeds

why official pool limit the hash power to 25Mhs dev ?

my wallet cannot sync
please help with the node

Working now, give it a try.

i claim but nothing into my wallet

Yes, the coin is doing better than it ever has in terms of real user growth. We have 35,000 plus social media followers, a new music site, a new website. More art fans, tipping artists than we have ever had and artists spending applebytes then ever.

This forum is so enamored with "technology innovation", that they forget the only way a coin grows longterm is with real (not crypto geeks) users who are engaged.

Coingecko ranks AppleByte as number 5 out of all coins in terms of user size and engagement.

The price will catch up as the crypto community sees what is happening.

is there any hope for this coin dev ?
im still holding 500k

AppleByte will be seen in a major feature film, Detours. Now in postproduction.

Here is a still shot from a scene featuring the leading actress, Tara Westwood.



Here are details on the film: IMDB Detours

I definitely think the name is trendy and it will help it alot. Hes right about the social media outlets.
The general populace spends all waking day following people and tagging nonsense.

If you want to make it for the people you have to go where the people is..are?
Keep doing big work guys, I will invest in some and keep an eye out for this one. God job and great thinking

No we have not, we are just beginning the process and that is the budget for all of 2015.

We are doing what we did when we raised the $50,000 for Phase I, a very small portion from crowdfunding (to help build the user community) and the largest portion from substantial individuals who support the Arts. In Phase II we are also talking with foundations that support the arts.

Will we raise it? We believe we will. We are based in NYC, which has the largest concentration of artists and art supporters of any city in the world.
