The distribution to those who hope for a performanceless (finally Fiat-)income is a waste of time and energy and certainly does not increase real demand.
It is clear that very few of the community will support this idea. Who has so much self-determination and initiative to open their own shop?
One wants to draw something for free, and exactly this virtue is served by the Byteball management. And that's exactly why it won't work with the desired broad distribution. Because nobody knows what to do with the received "Bytes".
It's not just about distribution. Don't be fixated on it. The purpose of this real name attestation campaign is to create a large user base of users with real identities, which the apps can leverage. No other platform has or is trying to create it. Undistributed funds help create incentives before the actual apps exist.
I would very much like to offer my goods on Open Bazaar for "Blackbytes", but I can't do that.
We have a
grants program for those who want to create an Open Bazaar for "Blackbytes".
First of all, you should make sure that this currency is to be used as what it claims to be: a currency. This would put you ahead of the competition.
Gimmicks that need a KYC can still happen.
Also the distribution of the bites would find really increasing spreading and would not reduce itself in the long run only on a small basis of bite ball fanboys with their unshakeable uncritical faith.
Furthermore, the ignorant adherence to "bite ball" is more than a hindrance to acceptance.
KYC is not just a gimmick, user controlled identity can also be used instead of passwords for instance. Many use cases for this.
We're not ignoring the criticism on the name, we're actively addressing it.
