Yes I am a pirate, 300 years too late!
Great coin, but....  What will the avg crytpo person do with it?  It's great that it supports artists, but what do most crypto people mine or buy coins for?  To make a profit or to spend them.  There is nothing for us to spend our coins on.  No games!!  So when the price starts dropping, people dump!!  You need to provide a value to this coin!!  Give people a reason to WANT to buy it!!  Otherwise you like so many coins just will fade into the 1 SAT, no one buying and no one mining catagory.

I agree.... there is no incentive. how about a lucky draw? Entry fee of 1000 coins and eligible for first 100 people. Winner gets 100k coins Smiley That would put some incentive to buy. We also need one more exchange. Have you tried contacting bittrex? They are very open to taking new coins, especially with an active dev.


Great feedback, guys. We are so focused on the user community, artists, et al, I think you have a good point, we need to look at the value to the avg crypto person as well. You gave me one suggestion, I would welcome some more!

Search FB, there are plenty of artists (drawing) there.  I think you need to expand beyond NY.  Personally I don't care about just NY artists.  But if you get artists to sell artwork for ABY, then people will buy!!  I think you need to drop the whole NY thing.

Should I consider AppleByte a city based coin where the rest of the world is irrelevant ?

We are currently testing the pool server, which we will release asap. Thought we would be ready Friday, but still needs some tweaks, 90% complete though, so coming soon!

Just wondering, does Adeline Thery know you are using her image to promote your coin?


Yes she does. I am the photographer who took the photo! That's what I do in NY. I am a fashion photographer. My work is here, if you are interested: jeanmichelcabanis.com


And to answer the next question this post will raise. I am the founder of AppleByte, but not the technical developer. Our lead technical developer is and he has done an amazing job in the design of AppleByte!

We have NYC Artists of all types on our team, which gives us the ability to build the user community - which is the key to longterm success of any altcoin.

At least this coin has a developer with a real name and address Smiley.

This coin seems genuine with some real people behind it. I wonder why this coin is so low value and thread is just about dead. What went wrong?

Yes, people get the coins by mining. We built both a solo miner and pool mining feature into the wallet.

We are currently testing the Pool Server and will release it soon.

There are some giveaways in the beginning:

100 AppleBytes for liking our FB page: AppleByteMe Facebook Page  We have 778 likes to date, and the user community is growing quickly

!00 Applebytes for joining our email list: AppleByte Email List


Additionally the AppleByte Foundation gives working artists scholarships and awards. This will be done over the next 8-10 years. Four awards have been given to date. You can see the Award winners on our FB Page.

how do the coins distribute to people?

Our Launch Plan & Philosophy

Dev Team was paid in Bitcoin (funded through our Crowd Funding Campaign), not premine. You can verify that here: Indiegogo Campaign

There is no Airdrop, the premine will be used to fund Artist Scholarships and Awards, over the next 8-10 years

We want to encourage the user community (defined as the artists & art lovers of NYC, as well as the miners) by giving them the opportunity to mine, before the whales jump in.

Therefore we are only releasing the MAC & Windows wallets at launch. The source code will not be released for 3 - 6 months, as the vast majority of the whales run linux.

We will have one official pool server.

The wallet has a built-in tab for solo & pool mining.

Rest is done my mining.
