Just finished a small airdrop for new users who linked their BTC address for the cancelled March airdrop.
Total 2022 users.
72 MB to each user.
Total distributed amount: 145.584 GB.

They received this text from the retired transition bot:

As you perhaps already know, the March airdrop was cancelled since balance-based airdrops stopped bringing more value as they used to do. Other formats of airdrop will be exercised later in the process.
Additionally, we are shifting our focus to product and business development.

We understand that some of users spent money to link a BTC address for this airdrop, and while the airdrop was clearly indicated as tentative, we still want you to be a user of Byteball platform, and to allow you to experience its features, we are sending you 72,000,000 Bytes (worth about $30).


This is a nice gesture and an unexpected gift. New users can no longer complain about not receiving free bytes and spending money to link their bitcoins. It had to be done before a  formal announcement, otherwise people would have started splitting bitcoins and then linking addresses. The older people who had linked their bitcoin addresses through the bot will feel a little bit sad that they missed out.
