My Byteball app would crash whenever I tried to do a full backup, so instead I am backing up the folder in the user local folder manually. This seems to include all the chain / DAG, etc...

There isn't anything else I need to backup that I should be aware of is there?

Full backup stopped working in full clients after the database got too large, we are working on a fix.  For now, you are doing right that you are backing up the data folder manually.

Full client still fails to backup with 1.8.1

The folder is enough to recover both bytes and blackbytes. Just in case, here is its location: https://github.com/byteball/byteball#byteball-backups-and-recovery.

You can also back up your seed, but that can be used to recover bytes only. You can find the seed in the device settings under Backup wallet seed.



i read you need to have Byteball on your wallet for 10 may to get byteball and blackbite,
linking BTC works if you have access to one of the address linked in the first distribuition

Hi there, I'd like to get in on the 5th round of Distribution if possible, but am a little unclear on something. Do I need to already own Byteball to participate, or is owning BTC, and proving the BTC balance enough to qualify?

Thanks

Owning BTC is sufficient, but you need to link the BTC wallet in the BB client with the transition bot.

Owning bytes is not needed, one can link a BTC address to a BB address anytime, and links stay active forever, so as dbc23 said, owning BTC is sufficient, it has to be on a linked address. You can verify your linked addresses and their balances by chatting with the transition bot and/or on transition.byteball.org.

yeah if you chat with the byteball bot , look for how on the site you get :

For the bytes you hold on May 10 you receive 0.1 new byte for each 1 byte of your balance, even if your bytes are not on linked Byteball addresses.

Version 1.8.1 released https://github.com/byteball/byteball/releases.

This is a bugfix release.
* Fixed a rare validation error that could cause a crash
* Fixed handling of responses from malfunctioning peers, this could cause sync to stall
* Fixed a crash when starting a light client for the first time
* Fixed a crash when opening chat on some old Android phones
* Other small bugfixes and improvements

What is the real difference between a full and a light wallet if it is necessary to recover by recovery seeds? Where can i download the full wallet for win64?

Hi, I see that all the idea about byteball seems really good.

But:
The distribution method is not for me clear in case I cannot see source code.

Then my question is:
Is public accessible the code, how the distribution works?

In bitcoin, litecoin, etc. you can see all the code and you know, that you can mine or use other Proof-of-X in case other coins.
In this case are most (not all!) of self distributed coins flagged as scam.

Can somebody explain me how technically works distribution? Is all the code accessible?
I want invest money and buy some byteball (as investition), but little confused now.

+ people want to get the compound interest of the monthly distributions  Wink

I agree, I believe this to be the main reason for the recent price increase.  It's still relatively cheap so why not acquire more to build your share more quickly.

10% monthly interest rate (when you holding investments in BB) now is the biggest rate on the cryptomarket and various pumping coins can't offer the same

All I can say is no matter what anyone says the Dev and crew are doing this coin right, I totally love this coin. I wish I had the money to invest in this coin times are rough, never the less I always follow and support this coin. Job well done

After seeing good volume and increase of price on Bittrex I headed up here to see what's going on. Still very cheap the way this free distribution works makes it very fair and can not be dumped because everyone knows and recognize the true value which will come after some period of time.
