You don`t have to invest anything here. Just link your bitcoin address with the byteball address as it described by the 'Participation in Byteball distribution'

You have two options to prove your Bitcoin balance:
a.  By making a micropayment.
b.  By signing a message

I linked my bitcoin address. But is there a way to verify it in byteball's wallet? It seems to me that every time I click on the receiving address, it generated some new ones. How do I know if my BTC address is linked to which of my byteball address?

It used to take me a while to sync when I open the wallet. Now when I open the wallet it seems no sync... is this because there's no transactions on the new livenet yet, or because there are some big improvements? Just curious.

hello everyone 

i listed byteball on http://icocoins.com/?ico-waiting.htm along with tutorial from the forum http://icocoins.com/?thread-14.htm

thanks to the man who contribute.

let's spread the words!

this steps are too hard.
it should be:
1. sign your BTC adresses with some given random phase like "89sd8hseg08ds09hgsd", then you sign lets say 100 of your adresses.
2. paste them to the bot
3. bot confirms.
4. done


currently this claim is crazy complicated

Ok, I did the first 5 steps. I created a new address, moved all the coins over to it and then sent from that address and the bot confirmed and now the bot says I have 0 BTC. But I honestly do not understand your instructions on repeating the steps. For instance, lets just call my current confirmed address ABC. So when I go to the blockchain all my coins are resting in address ABC. The bot has received my payment from address ABC, but apparently can't see my balance for some reason.

Can you please go over again what do to from here again? You say "Send back your bitcoins to your linked address" but I don't know what you mean by CHANGE address and linked address. I don't understand what CHANGE and linked mean.

ok THX DUDE 

Click on the link "chat with the Transition Bot" on byteball.org again

pls how i can interogated bot after signing ?

yu must paired another wallet (mulisig)..andro or pc/mac..and your bbs be linked at 2 wallet..so that if 1 of 2 crash your bbs will be saved.

It is better to restart from the beginning

1. Create a new wallet and get a new btc address you are sure to own:
- Go to "Settings", then "Addresses", then click on "+ Add", name your new wallet and click on "Create new"
- Click on "Home" tab, click on "Receive", select your new wallet, and copy the displayed address: this is your address from your new wallet (I will call it "New wallet address").

2. Move your bitcoins (from "old" wallet) to your New wallet address:
- On Blockchain.info "Home" tab, click on "Send", select your OLD wallet ("From:"), paste your New wallet address ("To:"), write the desired amount of BTC (old wallet balance minus fee), then send it.
- Wait for transaction confirmation.

3. Byteball wallet and transition bot:
- Open Byteball wallet
- Open transition bot ("chat with the Transition Bot" link on byteball.org)
- Follow the instructions
- Transition bot asks you to send a small btc amount to an address it gives you, copy this address (I will call it "Bot address") and copy the amount.

4. Send a small amount to transition bot:
- On Blockchain.info "Home" tab, click on "Send", select your NEW wallet ("From:"), paste the Bot address ("To:"), paste the small amount of BTC required by the bot, then send it.
- Wait for transaction confirmation.

5. Byteball wallet and transition bot again:
- Open Byteball and transition bot ("chat with the Transition Bot" link on byteball.org) again.
- The transition bot should now confirm that your Byteball address is linked to your New wallet address.

Now you're going to tell me: "But transition bot says I have 0 BTC on my address!". It is normal because your bitcoins are on a CHANGE address. We have to send them back to the linked BTC address! You will have to repeat the following steps EVERY time you spend a part of your bitcoins.

6. Send back your bitcoins to your linked address:
- On Blockchain.info "Home" tab, click on "Send", select your NEW wallet ("From:"), paste your New wallet address ("To:"), write the desired amount of BTC (new wallet balance minus fee), then send it.
- Wait for transaction confirmation.

7. Check transition bot again: the displayed balance should be correct

Sounds good, thanks.

You can (if you can control which address the payment is sent from, this is an advanced feature).  You just send the same micro-amount to the same address.

You don't send anything to this address. 
You do a micropayment again (note the change in your total wallet balance), the bot will report another address, check this new address.

Any suggestions are welcome.
We have sig campaign, twitter campaign, and a recent press release which resulted in a few publications.

is there any way planned to increase marketing apart from the sig campaign ?

I think this project will only succeed if we have a lot of users.

Quick Question; can we link multiple BTC addresses to our one Byteball address by sending the micro transaction from each BTC address, and do we have to run the Transition Bot each time?

Thank you for the instructions. The address 1LwrNbfBNQBchpycFBVu7q3xVXHsa3phpB is not on the list. I have 20 other addresses on the list.

So what do I do now?

As you are sending BTC instead of signing a message, you probably have to wait for that transaction to be confirmed. Does your transaction have confirmations?

Can you please provide some more info? Does the bot show a diffrent balance than what is shown in a Bitcoin blockchain explorer for your linked address?
