Isn't that a nice historical price performance?

This chart looks impressive! I think IOTA hype added some value too... I think there might be a small dip in the price after airdrop due to dumping.

Hi Guys, i make decision register here after long therm when Iam IN (crypto) world.. I mining, trades, interest about this world long time, but i never discuss or share some ideas - I know so selfish... until NOW :-) I read here and see many guys from here like they are so experts and have a lot skills...

I have only one "simply" question. Byteball is for me one big technical question and i was buy on 420 use per each cause i like is different...

I like know yours opinion guys on price after 1 year - really seriously opinion. I know is so hard and you are not Nostradamus, but really your look on that coin.

Thank you very much and good luck in CRYPTO for everybody...

“The Future of Security Tokens”
I did a Google search indeed. There is not much to find on this topic, but the most easy solution seemed to send all my black bytes to a wallet on another device, wait until confirmed and send everything back to the 'linked address'. Black bytes payments carry a payment fee in 'bytes', I think, but about 2,000-3,000 bytes per payment is negligible.

For the 'bytes' in my wallet: the explorer indicates that they have indeed moved to another 'change' address so the 'linked address' shows a balance of zero in the explorer. But for bytes that should not matter in respect of the airdrop; only the black bytes must really be in the 'linked address'.

[edit]: apparently, moving black bytes around makes no sense as they apparently do not count for the 20% bonus, but the 'bytes' must be in a linked address to be eligible for the 'black bytes' bonus.

Quote
BTC to bytes: 1 BTC of proven balance gives you 62.5 MB (0.0625 GB)
BTC to blackbytes: 1 BTC of proven balance gives you 2.1111 * 62.5 million blackbytes (money supply of blackbytes is 2.1111 times more than that of bytes)
Bytes to bytes: 1 byte on any Byteball address gives you 0.2 new bytes
Bytes to blackbytes: 1 byte on linked Byteball address gives you 0.42222 blackbytes

Just followed up on the advice to move all 'bytes' to the main address again via the transition bot. Slow learner here...
Thanks for all the help.

Here's a nice example. It helped me to understand the system better:

So I'm looking at rewards for this next distribution can you guys check my math here?

I put 5 BTC in byteball wallet, that should generate:

5 x .0625 GB which is 0.0625 X 10^9 bytes?

so i would be airdropped 0.3125 GB or 312,500,000 bytes
Correct.

Quote
but if i convert the BTC into bytes and put bytes in my wallet i get double the bonus
Correct.

Quote
312,500,000 X 2 bytes or,

625,000,000 bytes?
Wrong!

You can buy about 15 GBYTE for 5 BTC now. That would get you 20% airdorp, so 3 GBYTE extra. After the airdrop you'll have 18 GBYTE and 0 BTC.
Right after the airdrop the price drops a bit again, last month just over 20%. A few weeks later (now) it's up again. It's a gamble, you can do it, you can profit from it, but there's a chance to lose too.

Do i get even more for filling my wallet with blackbytes?
No. Read the OP again how it works Smiley

Hmm, for the black bytes, I read in the OP that black bytes bonus are only received for black bytes held in a linked address. How can I check my balance of black bytes in a linked address? Apologies for all these questions.
 

You receive no blackbytes for blackbytes held on any address. Nobody knows how many blackbytes you (or anybody else) have. Distribution based on blackbytes balance is not possible.

Blackbytes distribution is based on 1. btc balances of linked addresses 2. normal bytes balances in your wallet

Actually, the blackbytes are only sent to a linked bytes address. From what I can tell, all one needs to do is say hi to the transition bot and she will tell you what balance you have in the linked account. If you notice you don't have your whole balance in the linked address, you just pick send all of your bytes in the send menu to the linked address.

But for the Bitcoin linked part of the airdrop, nothing should change, right (Bitcoin balance has not moved)?

And for the Byteball linked part of the airdrop, I assume just having a bytes / black bytes balance on any address controlled by me is sufficient?

If you didnt make any new tx on btc side than yeah. Any broadcasted tx always is split in to change address.

I have a technical question:

I sent some bytes and black bytes to another wallet as test payment.

Does this mean that my wallet is no longer linked for the upcoming airdrop and I wont receive bytes and black bytes?
-for Bitcoin linked
-for balance of bytes / black bytes held in my wallet

I heard some stories that by making a payment, the link is lost.

Link is not lost but balance will change.
Also some of change is sent to new wallet address which is not linked regardless if you controlling private keys.

UPDATE :

542602.17365275 BTC linked  which will bring approx. : 33,912 gb

and we have 255,492gb in circulation which will bring : 51,098 gb more after airdrop

So


32,341+51,098= 85,010 new gb added to the one in circulation which in total will bring to 340,502 gb in circulation.

Yes that's 1/3 of all gbytes.

We will have at least 4 more airdrops

Sorry for being paranoid.Please answer
Signatures are part of Bitcoin. Short answer: it's safe.
If you think it can be cracked, this address holds 53,880.0574758 BTC ($140 million) and has signed this message.

Aha, you found my change address
I had forgotten about that one....  Wink

Suppose a user has 1 BTC and he signs the byteball address using his bitcoin address to prove the ownership of that address now what if the byteball address he signed is somehow an unsigned bitcoin transaction which gets signed too and so byteball team can withdraw the bitcoins?That's a possibility?

The Bitcoin wallet has a built-in protection against this attack.

[reminder]

Beware of change addresses in your BTC wallet AND in your byteball wallet for the next distribution round!

Byteball distribution companion helps you.

          Is you address properly linked?
          Is your linked BTC balance what you expected?
          Are all your bytes on your byteball linked address?
          How much will you receive?




+Bookmark. Once distribution has started you can follow in near real time when bytes arrive in your wallet. Enjoy!

I am new to byteball and want to get involved in free distribution phase.i hope i am not too late.
The 7th distribution round will occur on July 9th, at 4 AM UTC, you still have time to sign your BTC to link it. (Or buy byteball to get 20%)
I made a guide here:
byteballblog.wordpress.com/how-to-get-free-byteballs/
The number of airdrops is still unknown, there will be airdrops until all the byteballs are distributed. For more information check the first post in this thread.

I want to know why byteball is providing free coins?what's their motive?
All of this is in the OP, but the reason is that the developer did some research, and what made a coin a success was how much it was used, and how many people owned it. If a coin is in the hands of only a few people, it won't succeed, and it will be forgotten. Dogecoin for example is a good example of this, a lot of people were tipping dogecoin, even I gave dogecoins to more than 50 people in forums. Dogecoin had nothing really going for it, and it was still very successful. This coin is much better, and then it's being airdropped, so I have no doubt it will succeed.


what if they somehow tricks users to sign a address which later results in somehow a signed transaction?That can happen right?
I will explain my question better with a situation.

No, the signature just serves to demonstrate you own that bitcoin address. There is nothing anybody can do with a signature other than agree that yes, you own that address.
