Hello Byte-HODL-ing Steemians, I'm @balls2steem • A Simple Way Exchange Your GBYTE for STEEM

balls2steem (39)in #byteball • 6 years ago (edited)

Since the FIRST EVER AIRDROP ON STEEMIT, Byteball, Steemians are now holding GBYTE in a cool new wallet.

If you are just now logging into Steemit after a 12 day hiatus and this is all news to you - then you want to start here with the official announcement. Since a recent update was put out - users might not realize that REFERRAL LINKS ARE KING as quoted here:

Referral links are king now!
Therefore, we now introduce the next change of rules, and removes the attestation fee. From the time of this announcement, the one providing the new user with the referral link will be the one receiving the referral reward. source

IF YOU HAVE NOT YET CLAIMED YOUR REWARD - CLAIM YOUR BYTEBALL AIRDROP HERE IF YOU MEET CRITERIA FOR REWARDS

New Requirements Are As Follows:

To combat the abuse, the following rule changes are in effect immediately:
To be eligible for rewards the to be attested Steem account must have been created on July 12, 2018 or earlier;
Accounts created after July 12 can still refer other users and earn referral rewards, just not attestation rewards;
Rewards for the rep 30–40 and 40–50 brackets have been halved to combat the profitability of buying upvotes to boost your reputation.

As stated here in an official Byteball announcement.

IF YOU HAVE GBYTE THAT YOU WISH TO EXCHANGE FOR STEEM, HERE ARE SOME OPTIONS:

You can open your BYTEBALL WALLET and select the CHAT icon > select BOT STORE > and look for this nifty chat bot by a developer named Robert Huber.

Exchange over 60 altcoins to Bytes, Bytes to altcoins, or altcoins to altcoins. Receive your coins as fast as the network confirms your transaction. The fee is only 0.75%. Powered by Changelly.

Another Simple Option - @balls2steem Bytes to STEEM Service

WHAT IS @BALLS2STEEM

A new simple way for Steemit users to trade their GBYTE for STEEM, created by @jackmiller & @grow-pro - two trusted Steemians. We have collaborated to provide a safe & transparent way to exchange Bytes for STEEM. ALL of our actions are recorded on the blockchain - so you can always double check our work. We're two hard-working, honest, and straightforward people and transparency is important to us.

For now, STEEM is being provided by only @jackmiller and @grow-pro, however, we hope to create an automated system that would allow users to sell STEEM for bytes and also allow users with bytes to exchange for STEEM via a pairing mechanism that could match orders. If you're a developer interested in chatting, please contact me via discord @ grow-pro#2163. You can also join our dedicated discord room

HOW @BALLS2STEEM WORKS

For now, it is a pretty easy process, but hopefully we can soon simplify it much more. The amount of STEEM that is being exchanged is limited - supplied by @jackmiller & @grow-pro. WHY? Simple. We are happy to help users exchange their bytes for STEEM. We are doing it to provide utility to the community and we both are happy to save GBYTE. We have STEEM ready to exchange and are happy to assist anyone who wishes to get STEEM in exchange for their GBYTE.

GETTING STARTED

Two ways to Start:

Option 1:

Send a memo from your Steemit wallet - 0.001 (STEEM or SBD Acceptable) - this memo fee will be returned - Memo should include: how many bytes / GBYTE you wish to exchange - ex. 0.123 GBYTE. You will receive confirmation via a memo (getting your .001 back) that we can accept your exchange, the conversion rate / STEEM you will receive and you will receive the address to send your GBYTE to within the memo. Once your transaction is confirmed on the BYTEBALL DAG, Your STEEM will be sent to the wallet address that you sent the memo from.

Option 2:

Comment on this post, must be a direct reply to this post, not reply to existing comments, to initiate an exchange. Your comment should include: How much GBYTE you wish to convert. You will receive a conversion rate via @balls2steem that will be good for 3 hours - if you accept the exchange rate, simply send the funds to the prompted GBYTE Address and the STEEM will be sent to your Steemit wallet.

PLEASE NOTE: Do NOT Send Funds without reading & following these instructions carefully. If you send funds without confirming the exchange with us - it will not execute the exchange since there was no agreement in place. We will hold the funds until both parties agree on the conversion rate and a refund can be issued ONLY prior to STEEM being sent. Once the transaction is complete - there is NO WAY TO REFUND. Sending funds without an agreement will cost you fees to send and also fees for us to send back - resulting in 2x the loss in fees. Read carefully before submitting a request for exchange to avoid these mistakes.

HELPFUL REMINDERS

Change your wallet to GB, not Bytes. This helps to prevent confusion when dealing with Bytes, Kb, MB, GB conversions. (see below if you are not familiar with how to change this setting)
Remember that there are fees to send GBYTE, so the full amount that you see in your GBYTE wallet will not be the full amount - however, we are offering the full STEEM amount as appreciation for those who choose to utilize our 'human' service. We are not automated at this time and all transactions are executed manually.

HOW TO CHANGE BYTES TO GB

Select the button at the top, left-hand corner of your wallet to open the side panel. Then you wil select "SETTINGS" / Global Preferences.

Next, you will see there is an option to select Units for Bytes - select that to change your unit measurement to GB.
