Have I got it right that the next airdrop will occur in March 2018?? And will there be more than one airdrop in 2018 or only this one?
what? i saw that there is no update on the airdrop moment for this month but march? i really think this will happen sooner

Is there more information about the distribution besided the wiki page? Why is it halted?
BYTEBALL team should recruit more and better developers to form an open development team. November 21, 2017, 06:27:20 PM
Is there more information about the distribution besided the wiki page? Why is it halted?
The dev team is looking for ways to improve adoption and use for byteball. Apparently freebies have not been useful in promoting GBBYTE.

After updating the windows full wallet now the new one doesn't work any more. I'm getting the error message: "Uncaught exception: Type Error: Cannot read properly 'IndexOf' of undefined."
So now what?
So now what?
Haven't seen that, but....
move the wallet to another folder. start up the client and then do a full restore.
You DID make a full restore before upgrading to the new watter, rite?
Yes, I did, and I was actually about to skip it this time since I had never had problems before, but luckily I decided doing the backup was a matter of principle. Be it an exmpale for everyone. You never know when shit will happen.
For every 16 BTC you receive 0.1 GB,
For every 1 GB you receive additional 0.1 GB,
For every 1 GB you receive additional 0.1 GB,
And now the fools that come in claiming it's bad that whales get all the money without even considering what they're saying.
Someone with 16BTC (yes $130k) is not likely to care about $23 worth of byteball. If you really think that is their motivation, you're really lacking.
A Whale would simply purchase a GB at $250 and get the 10% bonus instead of hoping his $130k would get him $23.
This is really funny indeed. It just stops being funny when I suddenly remember all the BTCs which I have invested in Byteball when BTC was low and Byteball was high...

I also like the merchant cashback program, but the choices are still too limited. (I found a list here, is this the latest? https://byteroll.com/cashback)
Additionally, I hope for a really widespread distribution. Lets say approx $10 of Byteball for the first 100k people to apply for it/download a wallet and do a transaction or sth.
At this point I don't think that the standard airdrop (based on BTC/BB) has a big effect on popularity anymore. It is good to reward the early adopters a bit, but 10% per month (or every few months) is a bit too much.
Anyway, I am looking forward to the future distribution

yeah no one sane would sell 2 third of a coin in one go, but stealing is a possibility that cannot be reversed, if you are not considering a fork .
Yes, but 200.000BTC is a ... mindblowing amount, I dont think these people will dump instantly because they need money
Your logic here seems reasonable. Still: the top 10 Byteball linked BTC addresses represent ±200.000 BTC combined: http://transition.byteball.org
This translates to 1250 GB airdropped Byteball. That's still quite a lot for the market to swallow if it would be sold in a short period of time.
The merchant cashback program is great though and I'm very curious about the new additional distribution method coming in December.

having a similar error (error removing unstable units ) in my wallet i have only blackbytes in that wallet i can use the full backup with no risk of losing the coins ?

I'm not complaining, but honestly that doesn't provide much clarity. New secret method coming maybe soon, and next airdrop in March except maybe if one guy changes his mind.
Looks like a complaint to me

..That's why the next round of distribution to Bytes and BTC holders is tentatively planned for the full moon of March 2, 2018. The rules are the same as in the previous round:
For every 16 BTC you receive 0.1 GB,
For every 1 GB you receive additional 0.1 GB,
and similar rules for blackbytes.
This round can be postponed or even canceled depending on performance of other distribution methods.

Why not limit the distribution to Byteball holders only? Rewarding BTC whales at this stage generates unnecessary sale pressure in my opinion.
In addition to the free distributions it would be wise to reserve around 5% or 10% for future marketing, UX & development in order to attract a larger audience & secure the future development of Byteball.

An update about future distribution plans.
So far, bytes were mainly distributed via airdrops to holders of BTC and Bytes, and a relatively small portion was distributed through the cashback program. We started this free distribution with the purpose of getting the currency as wide spread as possible, and while the purpose stays the same, methods can change. The airdrop method worked well to get the initial user base, but it also proved to be the least efficient in terms of user acquisition cost.
Over the next few months, we'll add more methods of free distribution. One of them is already being developed, I expect it to be ready in the first half of December.
The new methods are designed to grow our user base faster than the money supply.
While the new methods are still untested, it is early to drop the airdrops. That's why the next round of distribution to Bytes and BTC holders is tentatively planned for the full moon of March 2, 2018. The rules are the same as in the previous round:
For every 16 BTC you receive 0.1 GB,
For every 1 GB you receive additional 0.1 GB,

Why don't you use the all rest Bytes for merchant cashback program? I think this is the best way how spread BB to real world. The more merchants using Bytes the more attract from other companies and people

Thank you for a clear update
I think you are doing a good work, and I think the change in distribution method will be positive.
Thanks and keep working like this
