in #utopian-io6 years ago (edited)

Most of you have already seen the hype about Byteball and you have probably already completed the process of the airdrop (via the steem attestation bot). Even @ned himself and the official steemit account on twitter posted about it

Some of you might have encountered some issues similar to the ones I had but I am here to inform you that as per the official announcements of @punqtured here all issues have been successfully resolved.

Almost ready to start the attestation process! Are you excited?

Step 5: This is how your wallet will look like! (You can change the color if you visit the cogwheel and visit the settings, but I preferred to keep the default color for now)

By default, your wallet will be a single address wallet
You can confirm it if you click on the cogwheel and make sure :)

Step 6: You will need to have a small amount in your wallet (49.000 Bytes) to be able to proceed with the attestation. If you do not, you can find someone to give you this amount (oh there are so many on steemit that will be happy to lend you!) or you could contact me on discord - katerinaramm#7862

You need to share your wallet address, to do so, you should click on Receive and copy the given address

Step 7: After you have successfully received the amount, you are ready to proceed to the main action! Bot Activation!

Step 14: Make sure that you store your name publicly (in order to be able to receive the rewards)

Step 15: After choosing, you can click the link of "payment request" to proceed
(Note: I tried to sign the address but it was during the network problems so it failed, you can try it if you do not have the fees and let me know how it went)

Step 16: Click on 'send' and wait a couple of seconds till the funds are sent

It only takes a few moments until you receive your awards. By default, 50% of the amount received will be available immediately and 50% will be locked for one year with a smart contract.

If you wish, you could use the BYTE-BTC Exchange Bot (available at the to transfer your Bytes to a BTC Wallet but I have not done it (I prefer to hodl for the moment :))

I hope this was useful & helpful, please let me know if you have any questions!

Thank you for your prompt response!

I tried to be thorough (including installation steps) because not every user is familiar with this process.

This is a detailed tutorial with screen shots of all the steps regarding the steem verification via byteball and steemconnect.

I understand that it might not be considered for curation but I do hope that the steemit users will find it handy.

Thank You again!

p.s. I will use your comments for future reference :)
