I want to comment on this because I believe that more positive effect has done than negative. I know someone got interested to be in this community because of the airdrop and I believe this is just only a start of more airdrops to come in the future.
Maybe someone who doesn't believe in Steem has motivated because of quick bucks they earned on Steem blockchain. Although there are people who made their many fake accounts there is a possibility that someone created their real account and want to get their reputation higher because Byteball Airdrop based their airdrops on Reputation.
I agree with that, This should not be at top of trending.
While the criteria could have been a bit different to achieve a better result, I agree that airdrops like this have a net positive impact on the value of Steem as a whole.
This airdrop won't be the last of its kind. Once SMTs get rolled out, there will be tons of them for various projects probably airdropped to SP holders as well.
It is already.
Thanks @transisto there are also people who still can't believe we can withdraw real money out from here but the byteball token was the real test to them to get fiat money out of the system.

Come on @ritushekhawat, this is not the way to get followers and upvotes. What you'll get are accounts going to your account and flag the heck out of your spammy comments. Focus on writing a thoughtful comment or don't comment at all.

I agree with you, if this had any gateway drug effect then it was not mainly to cheat more (there is always some bad apples), but it actually helped Steem community who now hope that there will be more airdrops to Steemians.
What I noticed a lot was people asking how to get Bytes to their Steemit account because their never used Bittrex, UPbit or any other cryptocurrency exchange before, which means that there are many users on Steem who are not familiar with other cryptocurrencies.
There is no better way to boost some community/country economy than having some funds come from outside, import/export anybody? What somebody should do is make a bot on Byteball that let's users to convert Bytes to STEEM.
I think many missed the point of attestation too because the main function of attestation is to have a Byteball address in
steem/usernameformat, so others would not need to know any Steem user Byteball address, they could send Bytes directly to their username if they know that this user is using Byteball too.Yes please someone write a article about what Byteball is, how to manage to exchange it, etc, etc.
I have already written several blog posts about Byteball and I might write another one that explains what else you can do with Byteball, check them out.
I have not written anything about how exchanges work because I believe there are many tutorials how Bittrex works.
Okay, I'll look into those tutorials. This is turning out to be a lot of work for a few pieces of steem.
Completely agree with this. It will benefit all the parties involves- byteball, steemit and the users.
