Obyte, in fact, has its own confirmation mechanism, that is amazing.
I love its solution to make confirmations, because it is more environmental friendly.

---

Fast transaction speed, and un-congested network are other plus point of Obyte.

After the rebrand months ago, Obyte will have significant improvements soon as the Obyte team said the changes on timestamps will be made.
Personally, I really like the very fast transaction speed of Obyte.
I made lots of transactions with Obyte and I have never got delayed transactions due to network's congestion.
It's amazingly power of the Obyte network to confirm transactions fastly and smoothly.

Why don't you just share the informations cointained in that "more informative" thread here? Why  cut out people following this thread?
Can't get what is wrong with discussing things here,

Moreover, the topic, made by LoyceV presents informative details and explanation on Blackbyte:
Byteball: Blackbytes FAQ
Everyone who invested in Obyte, not invested yet but have interests, and have demand to use Blackbytes for transactions should know it.

The transaction speeds of Obyte is too fast, and transaction done smoothly without congested or delayed.
Furtheremore, the OByte can be use to bet directly.
It is very convenient altcoin.

Not sure what you mean by markets, but if you mean centralized exchanges like Coinbase, Bittrex or Binance then thank god there is none. Blackbytes should always be sent P2P without middleman, otherwise one entity could start tracking who sent coins to who when the same coins end up back to that entity. Blackbytes are not great for speculative trading because their history grows as it changes hands. Blackbytes should be used for privacy, not for speculative trading.

Blackbytes had BEEB bot and Freebe bot exchanges for quite some time, BEEB is closed now, but Freebe was recently bought by Marc de Mesel and is still alive https://www.reddit.com/r/CryptoCurrency/comments/adi3mh/whale_buys_anonymous_blackbytes_byteball_exchange/

Blackbytes are not sent from wallet address to wallet address, they are sent from device to device and that was possible to do only via Obyte chat by pairing 2 devices, but since June 23th 2018, Blackbytes can also be sent on any other messaging platform (just make sure it's end-to-end encrypted) as textcoins https://medium.com/obyte/private-textcoins-6a2288d80757

this is pretty one of the most innovative coin.

The price chart of Obyte gives me a greedy feeling to hop on this right now.
https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/obyte/
After double tops, Obyte decreased gradually, and dramatically to its bottom range.
Why I called it as a bottom range?
It is because the price of Obyte fluctuated in a narrow range recent months, with low volume.
It's good signal that Obyte will start taking off later.
Keep patience and waiting to enjoy the ride of Obyte

What's the progress instead of the change of the name?

The growth of the market niche, which you refuse to serve, doubles annually.
For sure it's not me who doesn't see the big picture.
There is still no other target group.
Leave your Echo Chamber and finally arrive in reality.
Nobody is really interested in a coin that is as decentralized as a central bank.
There are therefore more trustworthy alternatives to cash.
Furthermore: (Zero-)Byte... the association... that is not money.

Obyte do nothing for wide adoption. Or obyte do something for wide adoption, but world don't need another "Ivan print own best money" altcoin. Every day some guy create a new altcoin for wide adoption, nobody cares about it. It looks like a psychiatric hospital with Napoleon's, beyond its borders no one knows about their existence. Obyte reddit even don't get a 100 subscribers  . There is not a single payment processor receiving bytes after a 2 years of existence lol. What wide adoption are you talking

Yeah, Vitalik Buterin is great inspiration for me, I also like his view on how ridiculous are those ICOs/testnets who promise high-TPS.
Other people who have similar understanding about bear market are Ivan Liljeqvist, Ari Paul, Anthony Pompliano and Andreas Antonopoulos.
Basically, most people who are not seeing bear market like this first time.
