It's just impossible to download a full node, same problem as Ethereum.
On chain scaling has been proved to be impossible. ^
This shows why we need small blocks and a second layer for scaling.

unlike ethereum byteball has no blocks
Sure, but it still has a chain of transactions which has become so massive that a full node can't be downloaded on a desktop computer.
it depends on your connection speed, I think most full nodes use remote servers
Actually, it mainly depends on your drive. Even with a fiber optic internet connection, if you don't have an SSD, then syncing just gets insanely slow at some point. If you want a full node, you must use an SSD.
Requiring an SSD isn't really sacrificing decentralization; having one dude run all twelve validating nodes is though. And having one dude hand pick a replacement for four of them isn't solving the issue.
This is certainly a major issue.

Hello Tonych and Byteball team,
In Chapter 6 of the Byteball whitepaper, you say : [...], and also expect them to post frequently enough, [...]
Could you be more explicit about your definiton of "frequently" and "enough" because it could be an open door to abuses even considering the network fees.
Thank you

Payload commission goes to witnesses. To incentivize witnesses to post
frequently enough, we split payload commission equally among all witnesses who
are quick enough to post within 100 MC indexes after the paying unit (the faster
they post, the faster this unit becomes stable). If all 12 witnesses have posted
within this interval, each receives 1/12 of the payload commission. If only one
witness has posted, he receives the entire payload commission. In the special case
that no witness has posted within this interval, they all receive 1/12 of payload
commission.

Hello Tarmo888,
By network fees, I was thinking about the fees of posting units, not about commissions whose I remembered about the 1/12 ratio.
A mix of chapters 13 & 14 give me a more appropriate answer about my "frenquently" & "enòugh" question to continu to fill my blueprint notebook.
I read the whitepaper at beggining of 2017 and didn't take any note, so, I'm doing my homeworks now ;-)
Thank you for help !

b) The Unit Byte: I know, this is a much discussed topic and actually the unit is good. In reality, the representation of bytes and the jump between bytes, MB and GB is often confusing. For example, it took me two tries to transfer the correct amount from my desktop wallet (unit there: GB) to my mobile wallet (unit there: MB), although I'm actually very familiar with bytes, megabytes, and so on. So I used a wrong value in GB and sent me 0.1 MB, although I wanted to send 100 MB. I was just too lazy to switch my desktop wallet to MB.
Furthermore, the block explorer with bytes as a unit is not usable by the human eye. There are just too big numbers to capture them at a glance. Generally I would recommend to relaunch the block explorer. The Explorer is very confusing.
My recommendation would be to install a simple switch anywhere in the UI or to take MB as the default, at least for the block explorer.
c) Website / Communication: Honestly, the website seems to me "too cheap". Sorry for the harsh words. The website / communication (+ YT, Twitter, etc.) is not worthy of a multi-million dollar project. The website looks like a $ 25 WordPress theme. This always strikes me when the buttons "Subscribe to Newsletter" and "Download Wallet" appear. This looks like a "purchased standard theme"! A simple website was good at the beginning and underlined the "it just works" principle. But this has to evolve. The website and the whole communication concept should promote real professionals, not just a single graphic designer or individual consultant. Take a real communication leader and put everything to the test. I mean, for example an agency like the one that has created the new corporate logo and developed the new livery of the aircraft at Lufthansa. An agency from this league. Byteball also plays in this league. This costs a lot of money, yes, but it is well spent money.

b) Starting from wallet version 2.6.0, there is a simple quick switch of unit size in the UI (join Slack or subscribe to newsletter
to be up-to-date with changes). On Send screen, just click on unit name and if it is bytes or blackbytes then it will open the unit size selection screen.I don't understand complaints about unit size because in most cases you don't even need to insert them manually, usually it is another user or bot that is asking you do pay certain amount of bytes and when you click that link then your Send screen is automatically filled with right amount no matter what unit size you have selected. And even if somebody asked you send amount in unit size that you are not using then pick that unit size and send that exact amount, with that new UI shortcut, you can do that.
Also, that criticism about default unit size is also bit nonsense because it doesn't matter what unit size exchanges use (they use usually the biggest, not satoshis nor litoshis), exchange users are not Byteball users too, they trade IOUs, if they send a GBYTE to their wallet then by default it is displayed as bytes, if the user picked something else, it was their choice.
c) The website has evolved, current one is not the original simple design it had since beginning, if you want to see how it looked before then Danish https://byteball.org/index.html.da and Spanish are still with old design https://byteball.org/index.html.es
The name and the design are always the easiest things to complain about any project, but most time, changing them doesn't matter as much as they seem to matter based on the urgency that complainers say these have.
October 12, 2018, 01:14:19 PM
I found the name repulsive from the beginning. The only reason why I was involved with the project at that time was the "Blackbytes". But they probably don't play a role anymore. The various inquiries in this direction are ignored obtrusively.
October 12, 2018, 12:16:48 PM
Personally, I really like the name "Byteball". Changing the name does not help make the price high. Everyone was laughing at Dogcoin too))
Yes, but Dogecoin has an image built around an iconic mascot that is universally viewed as cute and cuddly.
'Bite My Balls' does not conjure up a similarly endearing image.

2009 blockchain - got rid of the central banks. Wow we can change the world of money with this.
2018 DAG - got rid of the decentralization. Central banks (the King in byterbal case) is good, 17 tps and network under ddos, crypto 3.0 weeeeeeee no blocks no problems.

yes fair point however the first 12 witnesses will not be forever, and future witness selection will not be by the team.
the plan is to get higher profile witnesses later than the first ones (which will be replaced). but right now as the witness model is still untested its unrealistic to think any household name would be one yet

It is for Byteball investors, especially someone who bought the coin earlier this year.
Today, Byteball has stood around $41: https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/byteball/
In addition, I would like to know that whether Cryptopia exchange safely to buy and move Byteball.
Over the last day, only $35 value of Byteball traded there: https://www.cryptopia.co.nz/Exchange?market=GBYTE_BTC

I suggest trading at cryptox.pl or bittrex. cryptoia have not updated their wallet, hence lack of volume

anyone know why deposit is still disable on cryptopia for Byteball?
because they have not updated their wallet. they have been unresponsive for a while
