Directly from the Transition Bot, when I linked a new BTC change address just now:
For the bytes you hold on August 7 you receive 0.2 new byte for each 1 byte of your balance, even if your bytes are not on linked Byteball addresses.
You also receive 0.42222 blackbytes for each 1 byte of your balance on the linked Byteball address, which currently is:
So, you get 0.2
byte per 1 byte... even if that address isn't linked... however, the 0.42222
blackbytes are ONLY for linked ByteBall addresses.
