Hi! No more free rounds of distribution??? 4th November was the last?

Cheers

We can always hope that there are no more rounds of distribution and that all the remaining bytes will be used to hire developers, get more merchants, and build out the system. That would be fantastic.

+1, I wouldn't mind this scenario at all...

i don't have a problem with distributing a significant amount of it still. i do have a problem with the timing. the monthly countdown thing was counter productive and just turned the whole thing into a trading game.

make it claimable any time and all of that goes away.

You are both right, but I actually prefer the current strategy to get more merchants on board. I'd add that to make it even more efficient Tony could also offer some commission in bytes to people who get the new merchants is. The commission could be given only after it is 100% sure that the merchant stays in the program. This would help a lot I think, because we would also have the new role of "merchant hunter" who would proactively look for new merchants for his personal interest.
