And that will slow the adoption down even more because instead of getting some bytes for free, users need to go get the bytes from exchange. Right now, they can use many features without having to sign up to any exchange. That's why smart voucher system is great, they can get started with the help of the referrer and get started. They could even attest their identity without any bytes, so they could buy bytes cheaper with credit card. Requiring new users to go to exchanges is not a great plan for adoption. Crypto-fanatics are ok with exchanges, but one day, your parents and relatives won't even know that cryptocurrency had that kind of shitty user experience https://twitter.com/FedericoTenga/status/1058316647289798656

There is nothing that's stops anybody using Byteball now. You could have said something like that when there was no iOS app, but this is not the case anymore. Usability is an ongoing process, which needs to be worked on all the time, that's why there needs to be a fund for development and that's what Byteball Fountation has done. There used to be one dev, now there is more.

This is your wet dream and not where mass-adoption will come, but nobody stops you from building stuff on that part of the Byteball features, so go ahead, start as many shady marketplaces as you want.

Not exactly, all new distributions lock half of the reward to smart-contract, so they can't sell everything at once, which they were able to do with moondrops. If they loose them then it means that there is even smaller circulation and what you own is worth more.

So, super confusing now, which does make sense then? Distributing large amounts to few people at once (Bitcoin moon drops) or distributing small amounts to lot of people over long period (attestation and referral rewards for various attestation bots)?

Sectarians tend to go around the world with activated perception filters.
They see and hear only what they want.

One of them asks what a better distribution could look like, but the answer is a few posts above... and in many contributions of the past.
Arrogance and ignorance.

As a reminder:
"Adoption can only be achieved by a product that can also be used.
The first step would have been to ensure the usability of the product.

In the consequence then a meaningful distribution, which orients itself exactly at this use. Distribution therefore only to those who take part in economic processes, purchase and sale of goods and services against bites. Of course in a market segment which was created for Cryptos: the unregulated market."

What small amounts and what "lot of people" are you talking about? http://transition.byteball.org

70 000 BTC was linked to 70 000 addresses. Every address is not a unique user, 65% of all circulation was distributed.

Already 20 000 actual real people have got 20usd worth of bytes while they needed to spend 8 usd, so what those Steem users got is peanuts compared to moon drops https://byteball.co/attestors

Byteball has around 1000 active users daily and you think that it should distribute the rest of 22% with this same shitty method that has got it to 1000 active users? Where are all those 70 000 Bitcoin addresses (not users) who should be using Byteball at the moment?

I say that the distribution should have been reduced to small amounts, not that it was small amounts.


They gone, because Tony removed airdrop to balls holders before the network got use cases to support needs of all these holders. They gone, because Tony removed the only reason of hold. Removed and not replaced.

Bob - i have a balls, i hold it because every moon i get more balls. It increasing my purchasing power. I want to become millionaire someday.
Alisa - i have bitcoins, i hold it because i want to become millionaire someday. Many merchants around me accept bitcoins so i can hold my value in bitcoin, increase my purchasing power and spend money without extra frictions.
.....
Tony comes to Bob - am remove moon drops.
Bob - Why to hold? Where i can spend my balls?
Tony - new bot, steem shitposters can verify their shit accounts.
Bob - Why to hold? Any merchants?
Tony - new bot, now you can verify your mail....
Bob -  Tony, looks like you made a mistake removing airdrop. No reasons to hold.
Tony - new bot, quiz bot. Solve a quiz and win 2 cents.
Bob  - Tony stop ignoring the community, am going to sell this shit.
...........
70 000 Bobs gone

Twitter:
"(Japanese post) Byteball news in #Japanese for our growing community in #Japan "

Nothing's growing at all.
If something were to grow there, the price would also rise. But it can't, because the currency have no value.

There was never 70 000 users, distribution was changed because it was same few people who every month sold their bytes to BTC, so they could get more during next moon. Byteball needs users, not few hodlers who sit on their byteballs. Hodlers are not users.
