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?
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.
