What type of businesses would you like to see accept Boolberry?
Bars, restaurants, bookstores, newsstands, adult shops etc. Actually most of businesses, if not all, should have option to pay with boolberry. Any business that accepts cash now
For that to be possible, for any altcoin, it means that a reliable confirmation of payment is given to the business owner in 5-10 seconds maximum (100% chance that he will get his money). That's one of the main problem for altcoin use in everyday real life shops.
Most of the business types from above do not need instantaneous payment confirmation,but you have a good point. Dev team should at least have plans for payment layer stuff that is in workings for the BTC
Bars, restaurants, bookstores, newsstands, adult shops, coffee shops, supermarkets, etc... need near instantaneous payment system.
When you pay by debit or credit card at such stores, and when the network of bank card reader is slow, it takes sometimes 10-15 seconds for the card reader to display Payment accepted, and when this occurs, you know time is really long for you and the vendor, waiting... Next time it happens, count 10 seconds in your head and you'll see it's a very long time to wait, for you and the seller...
Altcoins have to be able to give at least as quick confirmation than credit or debit card reader... 5-10 seconds maximum. Otherwise I can't imagine how people would start using them in everyday life. I would never accept a payment system slower than cards readers, as sometimes they are already too slow themselves.
You are absolutely right, something of lightning network type is a must have for crypto
Either that, or simple off-chain systems are fine for small amounts, or wallets with a modest degree of centralization (and countersign transactions as double-spend safe) such as greenaddress. If you can keep the bulk of your wealth in a completely private, secure 'be your own bank' form, then what is wrong with something like a prepaid card where you buy a modest amount of credit ahead of time which can be spent instantly? (Agree that lightning network is interesting and useful, and perhaps the future, but not necessarily essential for crypto to be useful.)
Greenaddress is actually somewhat like lightning in that your coins can't be stolen, but much simpler. After a locktime expires you can get them back even without the site's permission.
Can you explain why an off-chain system is fine for small amounts but not for larger transactions? Is it just because the risk or losing a small amount is not as serious of a worry as losing a larger amount? Is there a way to set maximum transaction amounts for the off chain system so that people are not able to risk losing large amounts in a single transaction?
Losing or in the case of something like greenaddress having it tied up for an extended period until you can retrieve it (you can't really lose coins with that system). Also with a true offchain system there some dimension of reduced privacy (though also an increase along a different dimension, since your transactions are not broadcast to the world). So you may not want your entire financial life exposed to any one such system operator.
Both issues apply to Lightning Network as well. Lightning is sort of an automated way to find an intermediary to handle offchain payments for you.
Cool stuff, tnx for the info smooth

I think all BBR pools should enable to register an alias. with some fee or free if you are a miner in their pool.
Another idea is the complete opposite. If no pools offered that service then people would be encouraged to solo mine for long periods of time (as network hash rate increases) in order to find a block and register an alias.
With pool mining, it is easy to switch from coin to coin and there is less incentive to mine Boolberry for long periods.
If people really want a blockchain alias (or more than one alias) why not encourage them to solo mine and support the network? Currently solo mining a block can be a realistic goal for almost everyone.

... Is this rise really Boolberry specific or is it just CryptoNote in general?
... Is this rise really Boolberry specific or is it just CryptoNote in general?
It is probably CryptoNote in general but it's hard to say with all this volatility, and all crypto is going up. What is certain that initial animosity between CryptoNote projects is mainly gone, and that did not help any but non-CryptoNote coins at the time. Maybe it is because males behave much nicer in presence of lady
The World sure is big enough place for handful of CryptoNotes that incarnate slightly different on existing hardware technologies and in given enviroment. Only time will tell which were the best solutions for different problems imo

How to use aliases
You can map your long address string with short nickname, and it can be used in transfer commands.
Mapping is possible when you find a block and each block can map only one alias. The valid alias characters are lower case English letters, numbers, hyphen and periodin order to protect aliases from "phishing" and cheats. .
#define VALID_ALIAS_CHARS "0123456789abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz-."
If you do mining and want to set up your miner to add alias to blockchain, pass this command into daemon console:
make_alias luckycat 1GY1d9z41rBPUghdQaW2h62AV6z5FJ7TsCAbYQhbW6k2ZFLEfYhVV45DnqKRGPq7RLEpTsJVjpQKYWf tK7LeMfjiUq4oDYa
The alias will not be committed into blockchain if the alias is already in use.
this is the coolest thing i'v ever seen in my whole crypto life.
I think all BBR pools should enable to register an alias. with some fee or free if you are a miner in their pool.
and how to send coins to an alias ?
Instead of putting address just put e.g. @bitcrea to send to bitcrea

Hey guys,
I want to announce an update on GUI design concept. It has been finalized and now we're already working on implementing it.
I'm sharing screens of first finalized version of New GUI concept. I'm still working on custom window frame, so it could aesthetically match with the GUI design.
A little hint - we're also working on some other new technical features. Other features and adjustments will be added on the way.
My motivational BBR coinjar address is: @bitcrea
or simply: 1KjAkQLDtDqNn5TWwufygAP6CMnWk4ySo5YEEBkJxYTLfEFLaiysN1XZzzjFAfv7puRjAz4rQLrHn4T bLqVZzmHe85bfzhr
All the best,
Bitcrea

Will this come soon after the current database changes are done?
@bitcrea are you here?
This looks extremely nice in comparison to the existing simple but functional wallet.

I should use this try this! Is there any way in advance to know if a certain alias is available? Or will I only find that out once I find a block and my alias is rejected (if it is already in use)?
If the alias is in use you'll get a message when you pass the command into the daemon.

You need to mine a block, and put it in the blockchain. Clintar's pool was offering this as a service for a while - you could request a name with him and he would add it on the pool's next block. That's how I got @jwinterm
