Topic: Obyte: Totally new consensus algorithm + private untraceable payments (Read 1233955 times)

Hm..  12 instead of 15,  the more reason to be worried about the network sustainability. Just enough to shut down 12 witnesses and confirmations are delayed forever.  The network which propagates transaction in-the-absence of confirmation is a dead network, truth will out.

My mistake, not 7 founder's witnesses but ⁶

anytime.

It seems your are blind to cons of Obyte. Want to know why investors don't  take this coin seriously? OK, there it is. This is because of the highly centralized nature of Obyte network architecture. Want to stop Obyte working? Nothing easier - stop 15 servers belonging to Obyte witnesses, even less than 15, because it seems that  7 witnesses belong to developer himself and run on the single server.

I don't think so. Sending blackbytes to the exchange would defeat their privacy as the history would be disclosed to the exchange. Even if there are users who are okay with this, sending blackbytes can only happen in private chat between sender and recipient. No other coin works this way and the exchange would be unprepared to accept deposits and send out withdrawals in this manner.

That exchange seems to be focused on privacy (well, at least they claim to be). Is there any chance they would list blackbytes?

GBYTE has been listed on the NonKyc.io exchange

Trading pairs:

https://nonkyc.io/market/GBYTE_BTC

As the name implies, this exchange does not require KYC. There are no geo restrictions either. That means that anyone can trade there after a quick registration, without giving up any personal data.

Note however that this is a centralized exchange with anonymous operators. Please avoid keeping any significant amounts on the exchange and remember that self-custody is what crypto is for.

We made a lot of mistakes in the distribution indeed, and were often late to correct them. However, for me, distribution never was a big part of what Obyte is. It is a network first and foremost.

You guys are a scam. If simplicity is beauty then your distribution of coins is the ugliest most complex fucked up thing ever lol, and you can't build a solid foundation on a pile of shit.

We've revamped our front page at https://obyte.org/.

It shows Obyte as part of a bigger change with its ideological roots in cypherpunk and crypto-anarchist movements. The page makes it clear that DAG is the next step towards decentralization after blockchain, and it is the technology that makes Obyte censorship-proof and free of any domination.

If everyone hasn't heard, Bittrex will be closing its doors and all trading activities will be disabled on 4 December.

Here is the official Twitter (X) message.


https://twitter.com/BittrexGlobal/status/1726652430673121310

Therefore, Obyte should look for a new exchange and all those who still have Obytes on Bittrex should withdraw them as soon as possible.

Balance is the Solution everyone is Looking for...

We have joined the Kava Rise program to give our users an opportunity to earn income on their GBYTE and other crypto holdings.

Two our dapps are enrolled into Kava Rise: Counterstake and the new LINE token. The Kava Rise program rewards for the TVL these dapps create on the Kava network, and we will distribute 90% of the rewards (after converting them to GBYTE) among users who actually create the TVL. The APY is around 7%, and LINE token earns double of that by contributing to the TVL twice.

LINE is a price-protected token that one can borrow on Kava for GBYTE collateral. Price protection means that if its price falls, one can repay the loan and get one's collateral back (less fees).

To take advantage of the program:
- bridge GBYTE from Obyte to Kava via Counterstake
- use GBYTE to borrow LINE at linetoken.org
- bridge the borrowed LINE tokens back to Obyte
- just keep them in your Obyte wallet and the rewards will be sent to your wallet address monthly

Track the rewards at https://kava.obyte.org/
LINE token: https://linetoken.org/

We are finally launching contracts with arbitration. They are smart contracts for arbitrary business transactions. They make all transactions safer by protecting the parties using decentralized escrow, plus an arbiter invoked in case of a dispute. This is especially important for international trade where the parties are currently the least protected when they don't know each other. That's a $32t market.

And we are looking for more arbiters. Get in touch if you think you are qualified to resolve disputes in a particular field, or you know such people.

The initial sale has completed and the OSWAP token started trading.

14,457.88 GBYTE sent to buy OSWAP tokens
935.3 OSWAP tokens issued
238.9 GBYTE is the initial trading price of OSWAP token
15.46 GBYTE is the price per OSWAP token paid by the initial sale participants
223,443 GBYTE is the initial market cap of OSWAP tokens (all are locked for 4 years)

The initial sale participants can claim their OSWAP tokens from Governance / Stake & vote https://token.oswap.io/governance/shares/stake

Farming APYs at https://token.oswap.io/farming/all are currently over 10,000% in some pools.

Obyte's Latest Comparison of Blockchain and DAG in Crypto Highlights that DAG is More Decentralized

We are launching OSWAP token - a token designed to incentivize liquidity in Oswap pools and reflect the success of Oswap protocol.  Initial sale is open until April 6, 2023, 04:34 UTC.

https://blog.obyte.org/oswap-token-d670357fdf0e

https://token.oswap.io

The token will be issued on a bonding curve and the price on the curve would automatically appreciate depending on the TVL of all Oswap pools.

Liquidity providers in Oswap pools would receive emissions of OSWAP tokens to reward them for providing liquidity.

Those who lock their OSWAP tokens in governance would also receive emissions depending on the locking period (similar to CRV).

Governance participants would decide which Oswap pools are to be rewarded and in what proportions (similar to CRV).
