For second distribution, do we need to "register" our byte address at all? or all the outstanding byte addresses will be used for distributions? I ask this because some (though small number as byteball is new) addresses may be dead addresses (lost, deleted etc).

Yes you need to "register" your address to get blackbytes, but if you only want byteballs you don't need to "register" your address. All byteball addresses will be included in the second distribution and get extra byteballs without "registering". However to get extra blackbytes you need to "register".

To receive new blackbytes, you have to send your bytes to your own address the transition bot tells you. This is a technical necessity and can't be avoided to receive blackbytes. For new bytes you must do nothing, it's only necessary if you want to receive blackbytes! (who would not? Grin

I participated in the first distribution. For the second distribution, do I need to do the link again if my btc are still in the same address?

I linked all altcoin addresses, literally all of them. Whats good about it is that I will get BALLS coming not only to my btc addy but also to each and every altcoin addy I control.

Do all existing byteball addresses will be granted bytes in the second round or we have to register them somewhere?

All bytes in your wallet at time of the snapshot will receive new bytes and blackbytes, you don't need to register them. Registering is only for linking BTC addresses.

I must correct myself here! Roll Eyes

No, you don't have to link again your BTC account.

How can i make a backup of my byteball funds? I couldn´t find any button for a storage or a copy!

short answer, i know anybody described it but couldn´t find post.

Back up your seed: Device Settings > Backup, and your data directory, check here https://github.com/byteball/byteball#byteball-backups-and-recovery for the location depending on your operating system.

It looks like it would be very useful to add "Backup wallet" button (or menu item) in Byteball wallet GUI... That could help people and reduce the number of questions on this. In any case, having a explicit backup functionality is a nice feature.

I would love to do that myself, but Javascript is not one of my best languages unfortunately... Is there anybody playing with BB wallet sources already, or tonych is still the only developer working on this project currently? It would be nice if somebody else could implement this, so tonych could concentrate on core tasks... I see a lot of people here: https://github.com/byteball/byteball/network/members, but not sure how much they are involved.

I just want to know if the bot will check the address again in the future, because the latest it has shown me is the 0 balance.

Yes it does. Sometimes, the bot goes off-line and Tony's intervention is needed to put it back on-line. It is responding right now.

Is it me or is the transition bot not working?

I can get the buy and sell bot to show up and can communicate with it, but the transition bot is not starting a conversation.

Same for me.

It's back online.

No conversation too

I paid a small amount of bitcoin using the address given by the transition bot. The bot is showing that there is a 0 balance at the address, which probably happened because I was sending other payments at the time. I am sure that my bitcoin is now at that address.

Will the bot recheck the address when the next launch is due? Or do I need to restart the process?

You probably emptied the address and had the big chunk come back as change to a different address. Check the TX on a block explorer.

Regarding the second airdrop:

Hello again! Your current linked Bitcoin address is XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Please make sure that XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX is indeed your address and move all your coins to this address. You receive 62.5 MB and 131,943,750 blackbytes for each 1 BTC of the total balance of this Bitcoin address on mid-February (to be announced).

Current balance of this address is XXXXXXXXXXXX BTC.

... All the above sounds simple. It's this bit that's causing me a little confusion.

For the bytes you hold on mid-February (to be announced) you receive 0.1 new byte for each 1 byte of your balance, even if your bytes are not on linked Byteball addresses.

You also receive 0.21111 blackbytes for each 1 byte of your balance on the linked Byteball address, which currently is:
YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY 0 GB.

Move your bytes to the linked address in order to maximize the amount of blackbytes you receive.

I signed a message and successfully linked my BTC address to my byteball address.
I have a load of bytes and dark bytes sitting in that wallet also.
Now, why is it telling me I have to move my bytes to YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY ?

Do I need to move resend my own bytes to myself at this YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY address?

Many thanks in advance.

Yes, you need to move bytes to yourself, to your linked address.
To distribute blackbytes, it's not enough to know your BB address, we also need to know your device address in order to send the private payloads. Since we know this only for your linked BB address (but not for all your other BB addresses), you have to move bytes to the linked address.

Exchange bot that allows to exchange BTC to Bytes and vice versa

The exchange is as easy to use as ShapeShift. No registration required. To buy Bytes, you start the chat, send Bitcoins, and a few minutes later you receive the Bytes. Same for selling Bytes. You can also create a pending order and hope to get a better deal.

The bot is running on testnet now, see the link at https://byteball.org/testnet.html (you'll need a separate wallet for testnet).

The exchange is trustful, it holds customers' funds, even if it is for a short time. To minimize risks, the exchange runs through TOR, which makes its IP address unknown to the attackers. Since it operates in chat and doesn't have to accept incoming connections, you can run the exchange bot even in your bedroom, with the added advantage of being behind NAT.

As another measure to minimize its liabilities and the associated risks, the exchange bot discourages pending orders that are too far from the market price by allowing withdrawals only in the opposite currency and by allowing to modify the order's price only when it accelerates its execution.

Full source code and install instructions are at https://github.com/byteball/btc-exchange.

Please test the exchange on testnet by clicking its link at https://byteball.org/testnet.html, any feedback is appreciated.

The exchange is now running on livenet, the link is at https://byteball.org.
Don't trade large amounts, this code is only 1 week old.

Good job. Is there a market for blackbyte / byte or blackbyte / BTC? If not, can users create any two pairs they want, or you have to create them?

Only bytes vs BTC so far.
We'll have trustless P2P exchange for trading bytes vs blackbytes.
