Byteball was the most disappointing crypto of 2017, it failed due to bad management. Its sad to see that this will continue in 2018. I exited my position when I finally realized that this is not a community driven coin at all, but by one person.

The idea behind Byteball was to bootstrap a large community by means of clever distribution. But no community formed because of the way it was/is handled. Tony doesnt realize this at all, that is the worrying part. The community is just a number count for him.

Users cry for a rebrand/unit change? Users propose a new website for free? Users want to help in developing new features? Users ask for new features? Users have critique? Ignore them all, that is Byteball.

Meanwhile he will continue to develop new features that noone asked for, throw them at us and then disappear again to build new features. There will be no dialogue, no information, no roadmap. No money will be spend on rebrands or advertising or anything like that. In a year Byteball will have a zillion features but noone will know about it or care.

There might be new awkward distribution methods, maybe a surprise partnership with a totally unknown small russian business. That might be enough to stay in Top100, but forget about ever reaching IOTA or Raiblocks levels, that is a totally different management league.

When will the source code be released? All I ever hear is "in a few days". But the devs said the same thing after atlantis and it turned out to take nearly a month before it was pushed to mainnet. Can we actually expect it to be "in a few days" or not?

It was about how the team communicated to the community touting asic resistance the whole time (which ultimately drew in a lot of supporters and people to buy the coin because of that)

These 2 questions may have already been answered so sorry in advance

What happens to the old Dero ? separate block chain ? coins swapped to new coins ?

Is this still a Cryptonote based algorithm for GPU mining or ?

You posted more or less the same message twice; don't do that. Also, make sure you read the last couple pages of a thread to see if your issue has been discussed already (hint: it has).

The above sequence of commands are a bunch of crap and won't work.

Almost nothing really works for this issue, actually, and the one "solution" - temporary at best - is a pain:

Right click on the clock.
Select "adjust date/time".
Click on the radio button for "set time automatically" to turn it off.
Click on the "change" button to change the date/time
Now adjust the time up or down by 1 minute - it doesn't matter - and save changes
Click on the radio button for "set time automatically" again to turn it back on.

This is undoubtedly way less efficient than a theoretically ideal solution but it worked for me.

Captain:
Will be releasing Atlantis testnet in less than 48 hrs. We plan to use snapshot of existing mainnet chain for tests, confirmations and verifications.
Tests would be running for week and users can evaluate everything before moving to mainnet. Users can create wallets from existing seeds or create new wallets and test everything their own.
Pls report any bugs/crashes/etc. during the tests.  More details will follow before 48 hrs.

450 block/day
84,346 - current block

85000 will be tomorrow night 

Which algo is in Atlantis ?

Sooo confused, This is pump or all buy dero because cannot mining ?

DERO May Monthly update: https://forum.dero.io/t/dero-monthly-update/446/3

Summary Atlantis Update:
Following blockchain technologies has been implemented in Atlantis:

DERO-DAG(Directed Acyclic Graph): DERO Atlantis will be DERO-DAG based. DERO-DAG is mineable, POW based, fully linear with same level of security as blockchain.
No orphans, scalability limits defined by resources(Compute, Network, Storage etc.)

Client Protocol: It handles same transactions mined by two different miners in different blocks mostly due to luck/Network lag.

Bulletproofs: Smaller transaction sizes for CryptoNote Protocol.

Ultra Compact Blocks: Faster block propagation times and low network usage.

Core progress on track.
Explorer, wallets too are being re-written to handle Atlantis.

In another 15 days Atlantis will be released for alpha-tests and Hopefully before next monthly update we would be on Atlantis.

Honestly, this thread has been bumming me out, I’ve been a staunch supporter of Dero for months now and used to love the community’s helpful, synergistic vibe. I used to visit this thread and the Dero forum multiple times a day, but find myself coming less and less. The holier-than-thou approach of the team to an outpouring of disappointment from their early supporters and the toxicity that breeds has killed what I used to love coming to this community for.

However, the Dero team decided to hand the network over to asics without hesitation, centralizing the network with no solid explanation.
...
 Cryptonote is special because it is private, and asic resistant which helps make the network egalitarian.
...
It's impressive rewriting code and creating your own blockchain and the code is solid. Serena is an amazing community manager as well, maybe the best I have seen.
