If you do the vote then you get names like Crypto McCryproface (google Boaty McBoatface - if you didn't get the reference).
But such name wouldn't win in the voting process. I don't think that the majority of the community would vote for such a stupid name. That's the point of voting - get rid of bad things that people don't like and see what people like.
The first thing that I thought about when seeing "Obyte" was: "What "O" stands for? Many people will ask themselves this question and nobody will have the answer because it apparently doesn't mean anything.
You think that O was picked randomly and added in front of byte? Did you even read the announcement? Do you even know why this project was called Byteball in the first place? Have you ever even read what is on the website? Kind of difficult to take you seriously when you still haven't figured it out.

There is no central entity that stores and processes all the payments. Instead, transactions created by users are cryptographically linked to each other, and once you add your new transaction, other users start adding theirs on top of yours, and the number of other transactions that link to your transaction grows like snowball (that's why the O in our name).

Re: BYTEBALL: Totally new consensus algorithm + private untraceable payments
The rules for the next draw (@bittybox you were first to notice):
* Real-name attested addresses get 1 point per GB of balance up to 10 GB, plus 0.1 point for each GB between 10 GB and 1000 GB, plus 0.01 point for each GB above 1000 GB. * Unattested addresses get 0.01 point per GB of balance. * 0.1 point is awarded for each GB of balance increase since the previous draw. * 0.2 point is deducted for each GB of balance decrease since the previous draw.
The change introduces 0.01 coefficient for unattested addresses and very large attested addresses. As a result, the weight of whales is further reduced.
@tonych * Real-name attested addresses get 1 point per GB of balance up to 10 GB and additionally 0.1 point for each GB above that.
Please, this rule is just perfect for fraud. Here for instance you can see someone using 36 times in a row the "Real-name attest" for approving his in 10 GB chunks splitted Byteballs, to get the full 1 point for every of his 360 GB. He was not even bothering changing the Referral-code. I am sure there is even a lot more people exploiting this "Real-name attestation", it shouldnt be that difficult to get 36 ID copies or people sitting infront of the Screen to get it.
You should remove these extra Points for Real-name attestation to prevent such kind of fraud.
i really like the idea 'giving byteball to byteball holder' and this idea now is nice too. i tried real name attestation a few month ago, 2 times, but it failt. today i tried it again and now i get it done.

Re: BYTEBALL: Totally new consensus algorithm + private untraceable payments
Ich finde die Änderung der Verteilung sehr gut! Bitcoin-Halter bekommen nur noch wenig, Byteball-Halter bekommen immer noch 10 % (war früer auch schon mal so) - sie werden also immer noch gut für das Halten belohnt und jetzt kommt genau das, was den Wert dieser Währung NACH der kompletten Ausschüttung erhalten und steigern soll - nähmlich die Adoption durch Geschäfte. Es gibt einen großen Bonus, wenn sie Byteball zur Zahlung akzeptieren und so will man NEUE Leute zu den Crypos führen, die bis jetzt noch gar nichts damit zu tun hatten. Genau SO hatte ich mir die Sache von Anfang an vorgestellt... Aber es war wohl genau die richtige Strategie, erst mal großes Interesse in der Crypro-Community zu wecken (um eine gute Basis zu haben) und die Sache dann auszuweiten- Wie gesagt, im Sinne dieses Coins kann gar nichts Besseres passieren. Und ihr "Schnell-reich-werden-wollen-Leute" überlegt euch mal, ob es nicht sinnvoller ist, eine wirklich gute Sache für länger zu unterstützen und auch noch nach langer Zeit etwas davon zu haben...
MAcht euch doch mal die Mühe, die INfos zu lesen, die der Dev diesbezüglich gegeben hat!
