Why doesn't ETH holders dump it and buy Byteball?
Byteball is moving away from dropping based on Coin (bitcoin or altcoin) holdings.  It's moved to benefit people that actually have Byteball.

Most don't know about it.  Here's 2 ideas: 1) send an ERC20 token to everybody who holds 1+ ETH, allow them to exchange it for bytes using the transition bot (give people a taste, like a 1-3% airdrop, like the OmiseGo airdrop, but less than Byteball was dropping first half of 2017), or 2) just have them sign a message with ETH address proving balance, but this kinda encourages people to not talk about it, but its better than nothing cuz it would at least get people do try out the Byteball wallet.

To all Holders: tell people about Byteball: give them 100,000 bytes and 210000 blackbytes if they install the wallet (make a backup after sending blackbytes)), chat with them, and spread the word. Byteball's potential is huge, all it needs now to grow is more users.

Then airdrop on Steem holders.. Steem is almost in the top 1000 websites now.. its blockchain is used more than Bitcoin&Ethereum combined.. or somehow give crypto twitter people a financial incentive to pump it.. like, they give out a referral link, and if you link your ETH or STEEM they get a tiny percentage.  Byteball hasn't really hit twitter yet.. you wanna see a pump? get people like notsofast, cryptoCobain, loomdart, alistairmilne, WhalePanda, Max Keiser to tweet about it.  Market cap would double in a few days.  Although I do expect most of those guys to pump it anyway once the distribution is over.  Right now people have some incentive to not talk about Byteball so they can get more distributions of bytes.

Byteball is moving away from dropping based on Coin (bitcoin or altcoin) holdings.  It's moved to benefit people that actually have Byteball.
And that is really a great step! I am holding Byteball since many months, good that this will be more rewarded than holding another coin.
It would be great if they change the distribution model to benefit the Long-Term Holder, maybe 10% for Coins holding longer than a month, that will decrease the dump every time.

There is some benefit to that, but maybe more benefit if a lot more people know about Byteball and use it.  Maybe do airdrops on people who are sportsbetting or gambling (same idea as the 10% airdrop on purchases, but do it for bets).
