RE: Get yer free Byteballs today!

in #steem6 years ago (edited)

Hey bernie there are some addresses sending bytes automatically to steal referrals

Even if you send the address privately, it's at the network level. I guess they detect the transactions of those amounts and then send them the minimum and take the referral since:

When the wallet chooses which input to use for a payment, it will chose the input closest to, but not less than, the output required. The input closest to the 49,000 + fees will be chosen. If there are two identical and equally close inputs, I think the latest input is the one that will be used.

Sort:  

Oh I know, I only end up getting maybe 1/5 of those I actually send to.

Damn people are going crazy for those commissions, real vultures

And yeah. Free money does that to people. Just look at all the spammers now. There's like 34 users who're spamming literally every single article they can find on Steemit with their ref-links. It's crazy.

Yeah, spamming for a couple of cents. Just imagine the armies of multi-accounts raising their reps to claim the rewards.

And there are still many bytes to go.. We know that the number of "real" users in steemit is not even close to what is said. I do not know how good is this for byteball but whatever.

Yeah, it's insane... But it was quick and easy, so I signed up. I got the reward and I've even promoted my own ref-link too. Got a few signups from that, so I guess I've earned like ~$15 or so. Perhaps ~$40 or whatever it might be in total. (Including the cash you need to wait 1 year for). But I knew something was messed up when people started to send me messages on discord, asking me to send them bytes to verify... And I didn't get the rewards.

So, at least now I know. I appreciate it. Now I'll just need to figure out if I should keep the funds or try to understand how I can transfer it to Bittrex.

just fyi, the transfer to Bittrex was easy and worked.

I figured it out a few hours ago. It was easy and went smoothly.

Yeah I got some nice rewards too, like more than $200 in liquid bytes + ~$350 in smart contracts.

I made a guide about transferring it to bittrex but it is in spanish xD

That's awesome. :)

Well... I either learn Spanish... Or learn by myself. :D

Hey, wait a minute...

So, if I understand that correctly.. If I send 500,000 bytes and someone sends 499,999... They will get the ref and not me? :O

If that's true, it sure ain't weird I'm missing out on refs.

Yes, but they send 49.590, 49.000 needed to pay the attestation plus fees. So you should send the minimun possible to cover the payment and fees 49.590 bytes. And check that nobody sends after you, if that's the case then send again.

lol, seriously? Haha. I don't even know how to see if people have sent money or not... But this makes me glad, because I've seen spammers trying to rake in affiliates because they send 1 million bytes instead of 400,000 or 600,000 like others have done. Haha, yes! Screw the spammers! :D

But what about the actual ref-link? - I guess that doesn't work at all then?

Yeah It doesn't longer goes to spammers but to professionals lol, #notsofunny haha.

You can check the transactions here: https://explorer.byteball.org/# addresshere

The referral link is just a fallback when the bot can't find any already attested user to give the referral reward.

Haha so fishy, but still so awesome... :D

However, it's sad though.. That they couldn't come up with a better system for the refs. At least the spammers doesn't earn...

I upvoted you @berniesanders hope you feel a little good now.

Loading...

I just referred one person, and he did not have any payment from anywhere else and did the attestation, but I am yet to get any referrals. Is there any way, to know, why I am yet to get the referral bonus ?

Are you sure? Did you check it in the explorer? Also if your referral received the reward for the attestation.

I have not checked in explorer. How do I do it ? He received the reward for attestation, and showed me a screen shot of his wallet, it had only my transfer followed by his payment of the attestation fee and receipt of reward.
