Re: BYTEBALL: Totally new consensus algorithm + private untraceable payments
Just as a point of order, for the folks who keep saying the most recent airdrop was never guaranteed, here's what the op said about a year ago:
98%. Not 60% and then a variety of kludges to supposedly get the remaining 40% out to people willing to jump through hoops for a few scraps. The original distribution proposal was quite clear and specific - 98% to bitcoin and byteball holders.
After rewards to Bitcoin holders were reduced this original plan was still in tact. Even after greatly reducing frequency of airdrops and adding in other methods it was mostly intact, since no one uses cashback and people that only have Latin characters on their passport didn't seem very excited to waste time to get a few dollars of centralized shitcoin, and you can only do so many 5MB text coin giveaways per day. Now the plan is completely abandoned. I think you can see how people view this as a betrayal or broken guarantee or promise.
It's kind of funny there is so much indecision and uncertainty now around the distribution. tonych is in fact the dictator of byteball - he is in charge of development, is in complete control of the network, and is the central bank holding 50% of all bytes. An indecisive dictator. He's worse than my wife trying to figure out where to go out to dinner. And everyone knows the adage about markets and uncertainty.

98% of all bytes and blackbytes (the private untraceable currency) will be distributed among bitcoin holders who link their bitcoin and byteball addresses before any of the distribution rounds. No investment required, you keep your bitcoins, plus receive the bytes and blackbytes. See below how to receive the coins.

Absolutely agreed with all above. Really...
Dev, you didn't know you gonna cancel the march distribution until now? I imagine you were thinking this over and over again countless nights and finally made this hard decision, right? 10 days before fucking "tentative airdrop". Why not the last day, huh? WTF man?
And you shills posting from newbie accounts STFU!
Damn, I'm so pissed off now
I made a pissed off reply to this but decided to delete it. If you are the kind of contributor we should care about then that proves more than anything that cancelling the airdrops was the right decision.
Who the fuck are "we"? Who are these "we" that should care or not about me, huh?
Cancelling the fucking airdrop 10 days before the date "tentatively" planned yet in November obviously was a fucking dumb decision.
We, are the people who care about the project and not about free money. I'll use I instead from now on, maybe it's just me. If you had any reading comprehension you would have understood from the announcement in November that the airdrop was 95% sure not going to happen.
All you whiners, I don't recognize anyone of you having done anything positive for Byteball. Instead of wasting my time trying to get Legendary on some forum I have been actively contributing to Byteball. Call me shill all you want, I actually care about this project and I'm not in it to earn some free welfare fiat that I don't need anyway. I sincerely hope all of you whiners just dump your GB and get the hell out of here.

If you claim you've done a lot actively contributing to Byteball you need to show something like github or whatever.
I really doubt you have anything to show.
Don't need welfare? Don't need fiat? That's why a half of your posts about getting free $20 Bullshit LOL
I fucking need welfare, and I hate losing money.
Was it difficult to post about canceling the airdrop at least before the crypto shit show began?
All this stinks, fucking sick manipulative speculative crypto environment. Telling noobs about bright future, then spreading fud, rinse repeat while reaching into their pockets.
Dump my GB? Sure thing, as soon as I will get 10x out of this

I deleted that post within 2 minutes of posting it because I realised it is useless to argue with a moron like you. So I have no intention of doing that. My other reply stands.
