The Bytecoin Wallet needs a Bytecoin node to connect to in order te retrieve information from the blockchain. By default the wallet will start a local node. On first start this node needs to download all the history of the entire blockchain (around 7 GB) from the Bytecoin network. This can take several hours or even days depending on your connection. The process can be much quicker if you grab the blockchain and download it directly from the  Bytecoin site . But you can also connect to a remote node. This will work out-of-the box, which is great if you want to just connect and get going with your wallet or as a backup if your local node is not preforming. Setting the connection to remote node is done in the preferences settings. From auto selection (which defaults to embedded) switch to remote daemon. That’s it! Just launch the wallet and you are connected. Below are the nodes you can connect to in RPC mode -  node.bytecoin.ninja - port 8081 bcnrps.ebrahma.com - p...

BitCoin emerged as the financial revolution and shocked all banks, governments & other concerned institutions. Having a universal currency is not a distant dream now but with the technological advancements in the field of mining, original dream of "The Great Satoshi Nakamoto" also got disrupted. In his whitepaper he mentioned -  "Proof-of-work is essentially one-CPU-one-vote." Please refer to the snapshot from original whitepaper below -  Now all those who think ByteCoin is fork of BitCoin, Its not. These are two entirely different codebases actually.  Bytecoin  (BCN) has a very different proof of work, called CryptoNight. As referred above, Satoshi’s  whitepaper  states that one CPU should be equal to one user vote. However, his assumption did not hold, since FPGA farms and ASICs were soon to emerge and provided their holders with extreme advantage over other users. There have been several unsuccessful attempts to address this issu...

I was reading an investment article recently and when I apply the key take aways from that article to my investment in Bytecoin, I realise there could not any better time or currency for me to invest it. Below are some basic rules of investing picked from that article -  Markets tend to return to the  mean  over time. So if you think you have missed the flight when ByteCoin (BCN) was at its historical peak, You are wrong. History keeps repeating itself and ByteCoin would be touching minimum 10 cents very soon.  There are no new eras, so excesses are never permanent. Today markets might be flooded with BCN but the moment graph start touching the new heights, people will start considering it as an alternative investment vehicle and will hold the coins for as long as possible leading to ByteCoin deficit in the market and even higher prices.  The public buys the most at the top and the least at the bottom. What do you think when people re...
