Almost 1.4 million BTC linked with 50,000 BTC addresses! The airdrop value for linked Bitcoins and Bytes was huge, coins worth $56 million were distributed to happy byteballers. As more than 50% of all Byteball coins have been distributed so far, lead developer Anton Churyumoff announced drastic changes of the distribution:
https://bitcoingarden.org/forum/index.php?topic=10693.msg184586#msg184586 The intention is to not only reward Bitcoin and Byte holders but also reward actual users for their transactions by introducing the Byteball Cashback Program. Merchants, payment processors and Bitcoin debit card companies which participate in the program can offer a 10% cashback paid in Bytes. A few companies have already expressed interest but this is still work in progress. To fund this program, cashback payments will be taken out of the undistributed amount of coins. Furthermore, to slow the distribution and to mitigate dumping of Bytes onto the markets by big Bitcoin holders, the distribution rules will change as follows: 0.00625 GB per linked BTC and 10% on top of every Byte of existing balances. Interesting times for Byteball, now it grows up to a mature crypto project!
