Topic: Obyte: Totally new consensus algorithm + private untraceable payments - page 345. (Read 1234316 times)

Can I tip someone with a simple link? That would be really cool. Being able to message someone on facebook/reddit/insta, "Thank you here is a tip" Having things easily hyperlinked and tied with a balance would be really cool. That would help marketing and usage. "Click here to receive your payment for work." Does this type of stuff already exist with other coins?

Penny?  I've been giving away $.33 to $2.00 all around the place.  Just like I did many years ago with bitcoin.
These pennies could be worth hundreds later.  Yup, just a penny grab for now. 

In that video, I'm the black chick on the right.


Wrong.  Lite clients can use bytes and black bytes the same as full nodes.


Probably because of the ability to email and text the Bytes at will.  I consider it a major upgrade / feature.

Tony's argument for many things is weird. Like its a good idea to give most of the minting to competing projects for btc they don;t even own. Luckily Tony is a genius designer and coder so we can forgive these (by comparison) minor errors.

Come on let's get it into megabytes right away. I can't take more PM's telling me I must be insane telling them that 250 bucks is less than 5 bucks and they can and do check things out for themselves before jumping in.

Of course if it means all the noob investment goes to the cheaper 11BN projects because their exchange unit value is cheaper then that's fine.

Tony should listen to the community sometimes it would serve this project and him well.

Like any serious investor does not look at the btc value when conducting orders on an exchange, and extra zero is not going to go unnoticed.

Let's put it to the vote the fact BYTES is the ticker does not even have to change

But for blackbytes I would need to load the full chain. Or am I wrong?

Penny grabbing is a new sport of this community?

Try to find yourself on this video.

I confess I am also hunting a link. Not for the money, but just to see it work.

Got it!

How long can a Mbyte remain unclaimed (please say "Got it!") to the forum when you grabbed it:

argh...missed again 

I am SURE there are people I gave bitcoins that which are lost and they don't want to tell me.

My cousin sold his 2 months ago, because the amount trippled.  Had he sold it today, it would have been a 10 times increase.  At least he didn't lose it.

I gave another family friend 3 BTC (It was $1000) worth.  He put it on blockchain.info but can't remember the password.  He's actually had people try crackers on it.  So, not lost, just simply stuck there until a password can be figured out.  This many years later, and I doubt he will ever see it.


Use a light wallet.  Takes like 15 seconds.


Ahh, but let them.  I don't care who gets it.  And, people in the thread are more likely to get it than a scraper finder it.  Plus, a scraper might be so fast to find it that it gets an error since the code isn't immediately redeemable since the transaction has to be confirmed before it can be redeemed.  So, the code is not available for about 5 mins after I post it. 



I completely agree.   Awesome update.

This is totally amazing!
I guess most of the people didn't really grasp its implications, otherwise the price would already be 10X.

I also agree with these points. There are so many factors which are necessary for the success of a coin, and even though en excellent tech and a large adoption base (see Metcalfe's law) surely are main factors, there are many others as the crypto echosystem is becoming more and more complex. Marketing is so important nowadays. And Synergy between all the necessary competences is necessary. More HQ level people have to join the team and my feeling is that part of the still to be distributed Bytes should be destined to them and to all the people who will help.

I want to see this new byteball wallet on my notebook. Too bad it's being serviced in warranty right now. About how much time is needed to sync from scratch nowadays(to SSD)? Also, I have a full backup from october, I assume this can accelerate things.

Wallet v2 is nicccceee!

Welcome! 

wow! just when I'd thought I'd heard it all with these lost bitcoin stories....That UPS one! omg...smh!!!
great lesson and thanks for sharing my friend!

I claimed this, thank you

Well spoken. Here is an other MB for anybody wants it!

Be careful, someone will write a bot scraper that will immediately claim any textcoin publicly posted. 

I think you just made a fool of yourself.  Your poor lack of future insight was the same problem people had 7 years ago.
I used to give 1 and 5 bitcoin paper wallets all the time.  Literally, I gave away hundreds of bitcoin. 

Like you today, those fools (many of them) simply threw them away.  A piece of paper with 1BTC back then was only worth about $4 and not worth the hassle to figuring it out.  You know how many of those fools have come back later to ask if I had a backup of the paper since they can't find it?  They are pissed they threw away $15,000.00      Even my old UPS driver contact me only 2 days ago to find out how to get to the 5 BTC and he had a picture on his phone of the wallet - although he took a picture of the public address and not the private side.  So, 5 BTC lost forever.  ($75000 gone from my $50 Christmas present to him)

If you don't want the $0.30 give away, then give it to someone else.  It could go to zero and you lose 0.30 or it could go to......

Once I send it, it is a transaction on the dag.
It's not claimable until it is confirmed.  So, it takes less than 10 minutes prior to be it redeemable.

Once it's confirmed and claimed you get the response you got.

People are quick to claim free coins. 



Ha.


You did not have to go through that whole process, and you have NOT lost bytes; however, you might simply not be able to see them yet.

The issue for me is that I would have to go through your wallet to find what happened or where it is.

Example.... You might have made a payment from address1 to me, but the change went to address2.
When you did a restore prior to the transaction, it only knows of address1 which HAD.  When it sync, it sees there is now nothing in address1, but doesn't check address2 since it doesn't know about it (YET).
This is a common problem.   So, what you can do is make a few payments to someone else or to a new wallet (not full amounts), so that the change will come back.  This activates the next address.  Your wallet will then calculate the change you just made and the amount that is in there.   Long story, but you did NOT lose bytes.  You simply may not see them yet.

It's also possible you simply thought you had more than you did. 



I am so happy that the slack requires the minimal effort of requesting a link in order to stop the spammers.  I have left many slack channels just to get away from the spam.
If you want into the slack channel, I'm not sure how to say this nicely --- Why didn't you request an invite?
You could send me your email address and I can send you an invite link.
