That's why I support your efforts - keep it up!!
That's not my intention. I am as interested in the future of bytecoin as I am the past.
Whatever you think or don't think about bytecoin many of us in this forum are interested in digital cash. The bytecoin code stands on its own and I look forward to seeing the next tech innovation(s) esp multi-addressing (no payment ID's) and the
"substantial crypto improvement".3) Even though Bytecoin has made tons of code refactoring in the past few months, there were no significant cryptographic changes. However, in the upcoming release 1.0.6 there going to be a substantial crypto improvement. We'll cover that once the release is ready.
In Bytecoin 1.0.6 we are introducing multi-addressing for RPC Wallet to get rid of payment IDs. It is a genuine multi-addressing, not a payment ID included into the address.
From CryptoNote protocol perspective, you have to scan each output with your private keys to learn about an incoming transaction. This poses a challenge for the service that generates a number of addresses as under current crypto protocol this would imply that each output should be scanned for each address which is resource consuming and non-viable on large scale.
Our new approach performs a magic trick (I'll intentionally leave it like this before the release) that allows such a verification to be performed much easier regardless of how many addresses the service has created.
You may expect Bytecoin 1.0.6 release next week, and we'll be covering it in details in our blog.
"next week".
