As a BYTEBALL user and investor of the first hour I would like to thank you for the very good work of the team and especially Tony. I continue to stick to this project and see great potential in it.

The mobile wallet is great and intuitive, the same goes for the desktop wallet. I would recommend anyone to try the wallets and chatbots.
However, I would like to attach a few constructive criticisms and suggestions for improvement:

a) Bot Store: The amount of new chatbots makes this area more and more confusing. Best Case would be a UI like the Apple App Store with overviews, recommendations, different categories and with detailed descriptions. The chatbots urgently need a better detail page.

b) The Unit Byte: I know, this is a much discussed topic and actually the unit is good. In reality, the representation of bytes and the jump between bytes, MB and GB is often confusing. For example, it took me two tries to transfer the correct amount from my desktop wallet (unit there: GB) to my mobile wallet (unit there: MB), although I'm actually very familiar with bytes, megabytes, and so on. So I used a wrong value in GB and sent me 0.1 MB, although I wanted to send 100 MB. I was just too lazy to switch my desktop wallet to MB.
Furthermore, the block explorer with bytes as a unit is not usable by the human eye. There are just too big numbers to capture them at a glance. Generally I would recommend to relaunch the block explorer. The Explorer is very confusing.
My recommendation would be to install a simple switch anywhere in the UI or to take MB as the default, at least for the block explorer.

c) Website / Communication: Honestly, the website seems to me "too cheap". Sorry for the harsh words. The website / communication (+ YT, Twitter, etc.) is not worthy of a multi-million dollar project. The website looks like a $ 25 WordPress theme. This always strikes me when the buttons "Subscribe to Newsletter" and "Download Wallet" appear. This looks like a "purchased standard theme"! A simple website was good at the beginning and underlined the "it just works" principle. But this has to evolve. The website and the whole communication concept should promote real professionals, not just a single graphic designer or individual consultant. Take a real communication leader and put everything to the test. I mean, for example an agency like the one that has created the new corporate logo and developed the new livery of the aircraft at Lufthansa. An agency from this league. Byteball also plays in this league. This costs a lot of money, yes, but it is well spent money.

Thanks LoyceV and kaicrypzen for the merit. But I would also like to discuss these topics with the Byteball team or Tony. Is there a community manager, who does not copies Twitter posts here only, but also shares an opinion?

Of course, I also know that the website has been relaunched before. But seriously, that was a rebrush (different colors, more mobile friendly, text centered and a few cheap button animations).

Money is an emotional issue and this must also be communicated through the Byteball website. Currently there is no "mass adaption" with this website because it was made by a technician for technicians. The website is similar to an API documentation or a technology wiki! I have been working in the Internet industry for 20 years and I know it when programmers try to design and do marketing ...

Of course, I do not want any stock images to be posted on the website, it needs a good agency that develops a good communication concept for the emotional topic of "new money Byteball". A good concept conveys innovation, security and a "do not miss"-feeling.

Do not get me wrong, but the current communication strategy of the brand "Byteball" must be changed.

It was now admitted that the end of the last outstanding Airdrop was a mistake. Yes, it was a mistake that needs to be corrected urgently. For example, I had an art gallery in Switzerland as a customer who wanted to test bytes for payment. Since the last Airdrop was canceled, although it was announced for months, the customer has lost the confidence and interest in Byteball.
Here was an announcement broken and therefore I advise the Byteball team to bite the bullet and redeem this announcement and make up for the last Airdrop. Otherwise this breach of trust will always accompany Byteball. Someone will always put their finger in the wound.

Another point is the lack of liquidity. Sometimes, when I bought a few bytes, it felt like I had doubled the global trading volume. It is in the nature of things that a means of payment must be liquid. My two cents: Finding new exchanges should be at the top of the priority list for the Byteball team. Better knock on the doors of other exchanges and realize 1-2 new features less or later.

In general, Byteball needs to build up momentum again. Currently, all good news goes down because of the bitcoin down trend. Again, I would like to suggest the following:
Dear Byteball Team, dear Tony, please use the time of the bear market to work out a great communication concept with a good agency. This takes time, including the relaunch of the strategy Web, Twitter, FB ... maybe 6 months. Announce the commissioning of the communication agency. This announcement could already slow down the current down trend. But save some good news until the wind has turned again at Bitcoin. As an indicator you can take, for example, when the Bitcoin price is traded above the 200-day MA.

My hopes for new momentum at Byteball:

a) The new communication strategy will be rolled out
b) the then announced last Airdrop will be made up and thus all old announcements are now really implemented and the confidence restored
c) A new listing on a major exchange frame the first two points

>> Byteball is sure to be back on everyone's lips, a top topic and the Top50 only a first stopover.
