It dawned on me today that relative to Bitcoin market cap most people own such a tiny amount that even if instantly the market cap of byteball is a few million the average guy with 5-20 btc will end up getting like a few dollars worth. I get that it's free but anyone wanting a decent amount may as well wait for exchanges.

Yeah and there's a non-zero chance you will lose your BTC somewhere during the steps of consolidating your coins to a single address, making the identification tx, and sending it all back to a new cold wallet.
Not every BTC holder will claim. Rest assured that it'll be more than a few dollars. The holders of 90% of all BTC would never touch an altcoin.

You dont need to put all your BTC in one address. You can also create several links of byteball- and bitcoinaddresses. Sending all BTC to one address is just for your convenience.

Your device will be paired with Testnet Faucet and you'll be able to ask it for bytes and blackbytes. If that's not enough Smiley, send me your address or copy it here and I'll be glad to send you many Smiley.

hm - sorry about that, I tried that, but google chrome just shows a blank page when I hit 'launch App' ... I am using Ubuntu 16.04 with a bare bones window manager (Fluxbox) - maybe this is the reaosn?

Try rebooting (although the links should already open in Byteball wallet without rebooting).  If this doesn't help, send me your address.

I have installed and synch'ed the testnet wallet- but I can't seem to find out how to get some testnet BYTEBALLS - can you give me a hint?

If it is in this thread somewhere, I have missed it- Thanks!

In the first post:

After installing the wallet, visit https://byteball.org and click the link to receive free bytes to play with. The link will open your wallet

PM dev with your address. I think he will initiate your activity with some testnet coins. Remember that testnet coins are not exchangeable against BTC.

pls how much time for the syncing of wallet ?
Couple of minuts less then hour.

tkank, its ok to me..these test coins will be delete after official release ? devs can add campagn sign..? will wear it

Downloaded windows wallet but  syncing  is taking a lot of time, is that correct?

same problem , more 6 hours until now not syncron

6 hours is something abnormal.  Please right click, select "Inspect background page", and send me what you see in the Console.
i had some problem too
5 hours to download from 90MB to 136 MB byteball.sqlite


i think also depends about connections speeds!

To link your byteball and bitcoin addresses, you’ll need to make a small BTC payment to a one-time bitcoin address created specifically for you.  Next, you consolidate all your bitcoins on the one address you paid from that we know is controlled by you (if you have only one bitcoin address, you skip this step as all your bitcoins are already on a single address).  Then the number of bytes and blackbytes you receive on the launch date will be proportional to the BTC amount on your linked address in a specific bitcoin block (e.g. in block 437000 which is expected late October - early November).  The detailed instructions and the exact block number will be posted later when we get ready for launching the livenet.

tonych, I have a question to the bold marked sentence. If I make a tx with the small amount to prove my ownership of my BTC address, then this amount goes to the Byteball specific one-time BTC adress but the rest of my BTCs goes to the another address what has been created of the BTC Core Wallet. How can it be proved, how many BTC i had on the first address? They are all gone to the another adress, that the wallet has made. Could you please make a instruction how to make it properly. Thank you.

You are absolutely correct - the address you paid from may become empty after this micro payment.  What's more, your total balance is probably already fragmented over many various sized outputs, and the coin selection algorithm in your wallet will most likely choose a coin that already had very small balance (the smallest over 0.001 BTC) which doesn't say anything about your total balance.

That's why we have the second step:
Quote
Next, you consolidate all your bitcoins on the one address you paid from that we know is controlled by you
Essentially you move coins within your wallet, so that they are consolidated on the linked address.



Thanks for the quick response and for the clear explanation.
