RE: Byteball Airdrop to Steemians Round 2
It seems that a lot of people don't dare installing the wallet cause it seems "too good to be true", while I usually don't take advantage of referrals or promote these kind of things. Byteball has existed for 1.5 years and has had successful airdrops on Bitcoin holders in the past. If there was something shady about this I doubt that steemitblog would post about it. So just ensuring users with this comment that there really are rewards and it would be worth to get them and then start referring other Steemians yourself.
Send me a dm with your wallet address after you've installed it on Discord: Acidyo#8038 or steem.chat @acidyo and I'll send you the tokens needed to finish the registration as soon as possible!
You can always write it here too but I might lose out on the referral reward to some bots fishing the addresses instead.
Thank you for 20$. You are really helpful!
If you really believe in conspiracy theories then it doesn't really help that Steemit posted about this.
What would help is that an programmer checks the code. I just did and I found a Trojan horse. Do you want to know what I exactly found? And what security measures you need to take immediately?
Hi there. There has been reports of false positives for a specific antivirus client. The developers has looked into it but hasn't been able to see what causes this. If you looked into the code (it's completely open source and on GitHub for everyone to see) and think you found the thing causing this, please get in touch. Open sourcing the code would be pretty bad if it contained a Trojan :-)
But please get in touch if you've managed to find the lines of code causing this.
Cheers,
Casper from Byteball
Is the referral system discontinued?
The referral program for Steem users is still running
You really think you're the only one?
False positives are very common with crypto wallets.
Al I want to say is that this is basically the reason why most things in crypto land go wrong.
Something happens, for example this airdrop or an ICO. Just a few persons give it a positive review. And next thing is everyone jumping at it.
While in the end more crypto/blockchain projects fail then succeed.
Its literally not costing anyone anything, as long as the wallet/project is safe to use there's no point in arguing about it.
Indeed if the wallet is safe this seems to be a win situation for Steemonians. But don't forget that it does cost someone something. Cause of my bank account increases with $40, then there is always another bank account that decreased with that same amount.
That's called selling to buyers, I'm sure people buying gbytes are aware that 99% of its supply is supposed to be airdropped.

You really talk Shit!
Are you drunk?
😜😂
Just a quick update: While the devs can't pinpoint what exactly is causing this false positive, it's been reported to Qihoo360 and Avast as a false positive. They will hopefully be able to sort out why it was identified as containing a Trojan and take a further look on the code.
The only indication is that it is something in the file Usp10.dll file being identified as "QVM06.Gen"-trojan. It doesn't really give much info on exactly what that is or why.
I would love to promise you an update here, but chances are that I'll forget about it. Best thing will be to check the file again in a weeks time or so (no idea how long it takes for Qihoo and Avast to look into it) to see if it's cleared.
Thanks for this info.
I actually made a joke about the Trojan, just to prove that everyone just trust someone on their blue eyes. While everyone should know by now that is a bad idea.
Nevertheless I'm also thinking about collecting the free tokens/coins. How long will this airdrop last?
Last I heard they said it will go on for a long time.
Also, there referral scheme seems to be not working. I didn't get the referral of one user. This looks like a shitty airdrop to me. It can be gamed very easily.
That's one of the few (dis)advantages of bots that get on humans' nerves.. I wish you'd find mine and get the bonus for your good effort.
what happens if you install the wallet on your work computer and want to access it on your home computer can you do that ?
