After successfully linking 1 BTC address with BB address using "Sign Message", I sent a new BB address to Transition Bot, hoping to link a second BTC address to the second BB address. I got as reply a message asking to transfer all my Bitcoins to the first BTC address. I then sent a new BTC address and the bot gave the same (first) BB address as text to be signed by the second BTC address. I did that, and got message listing Bitcoin balance for both BTC addresses.

I have 2 questions.

1. Would the total Bytes be distributed to the first BB address or will they be distributed separately to the 2 BB addresses
2. If I want to link a third BTC address using micropayment (from a different BTC wallet that does not have signing facilities), can I just send it to the receiving BTC address at the begining of the bot conversation?

1.  You'll receive all bytes at the first BB address.  It's perfectly legal to link several Bitcoin addresses to the same BB address.
2.  To link by micropayment, you send the exact amount that the bot said to the address that the bot said.  You don't have to tell him your Bitcoin address, it will be visible from the micropayment received.

Thank you! This wallet & Transition bot is awesome Smiley
So, as I understand it, all 3 BTC linked adresses will get BB at the same address.

My friend asked me to help do the linking (I have access to her BTC wallet) - so how can I do it on a separate BB address on the same machine?

To avoid messing up, better do it on a separate machine or phone.
If you want to try your chances, you can move your C:\Users\YOURUSERNAME\Local\AppData\byteball folder to another location (after closing the wallet) and run the wallet again.

Link to transition bot is not working.

Make sure your byteball wallet is open and you have the correct wallet:

https://github.com/byteball/byteball/releases

V0.7.1.

I downloaded the light wallet. To back up my wallet, what else should I do besides writing down my wallet seed?

It seems I don't need the wallet seed to log into my wallet/account. Is it right?

The seed is almost never needed.  If you are on Windows, backup  the folder C:\Users\YOURUSERNAME\Local\AppData\byteball.

Excellent work thanks for the response, very excited to see how the network develops.

b.  By signing a message (if your Bitcoin wallet supports this function).  You tell the bot your Bitcoin address and sign your Byteball address with the Bitcoin address.  After you prove one address (a typical Bitcoin wallet has dozens of them), you can either move all your coins to this single proven address or prove all other addresses in the same way -- by signing a message.

I can sign a message and send to bot, but question is: (1) what message I should sign? any message? (2) what's the format I should send message and signed message to bot, so it can verify? and how do I send them? Can you give the steps in details?

1) Your Byteball address
2) Just copy/paste the signature from your Bitcoin wallet.

Don't worry if you do anything wrong, the bot won't be angry at you and will try to give you instructions.

New question guys, how do I know that my wallet is synced?

The livenet wallet (the one without TN) doesn't need to sync before Dec 25 because there are no transactions yet.

How soon after the snapshot can we move the Bitcoin out of the linked address/s?

Immediately after Christmas block.

I have solved the linking issue - If you have messed up the link(aka linked to the wrong BTC address) here is how to reverse and create a fresh link and instance.

1.) Uninstall all Byteball application (if you have important data make a backup).

2.) Search %APPDATA% locate "local" folder.

3.) Delete all Byteball instances.

4.) Reinstall all Byteball instances. https://github.com/byteball/byteball/releases (MAKE SURE YOU ARE USING 0.7.1. ver).

5.) Navigate to: https://byteball.org/

6.) Click airdrop chat link.

7.) You can create a fresh BTC link.


Very happy with software design so far great work @byteballteam @tony

 Cool

I'm late but looks like most issues were resolved while I was sleeping Smiley  I like this community.

It only relates to the latest address, so multiple bitcoin addresses I don't think will work out. Best to relate it just to one primary btc address.

This looks like a nice coin, will follow certainly. I think it's a good time to join the crowd and participate in the distributions. Good job the dev team for doing a nice wallet, and with all the new features. Smiley
