I found this offer for free byteball crypto's (i.e. Blackbytes) suspect. I wondered how the price for this crypto could be around the $700 mark, when there are other crypto's with just as good, if not better, technology behind this. I wondered if the input of sending your bitcoins for Blackbytes was just pumping up the price?

I'm here even more concerned in that for sending around $3.50 USD worth of my Bitcoins, plus the $1.50 mining fee, that I got a message back saying that they are seeing that I own Zero bitcoins. This then offers a web page to look at the reason why it is showing zero bitcoins, of which helps little. I've got 2 bitcoins in my wallet, not zero bitcoins. There is no message for to help you otherwise and this lends to the potential further loss of leading to getting you to have another attempt - no thanks.  I've sent an email requesting help on this, but to date have not gotten a reply. As far as I'm concerned this marketing ploy is a pump on the price of this crypto and I've been ripped off i.e. this is a scam. I'd be interested to hear from if others have had the same thing happen to them?

Your must have change addresses in your BTC wallet that's why your linked BTC address shows a zero balance. Move all your BTC back to the BTC address you linked.

I gave Byteball the address that Jaxx wallet gave me as the address of my bitcoins. I never changed any address, while Byteball now has some fee Bitcoins from me. If I never changed this address and never moved them out of this address, I don't understand how I can move it back to this address. The only thing that I can think is that on this day I did convert bitcoins to Ethereum a few hours prior and I'd say that this ethereum transaction had about 5 confirmations on Electrum wallet, but Jaxx wallet was showing that it was confirmed, no problems, with a good deal more confirmations. Could this transaction, while in flux, cause Byteball to see something different from the blockchain? Still they got my bitcoins? so how does this work? Seriously "You must have changed addresses in your BTC wallet" makes no sense to me?
