The #Byteball-Altcoin Exchange Bot in the wallet Bot Store exchanges over 60 altcoins to Bytes, Bytes to altcoins, or altcoins to altcoins. Have you ever used it? (165 votes)[3]

- (7 votes) 4% Yes, but had a problem
- (39 votes) 24% No, but used another bot

Notes
Comment: Should have specified for Byteball holders. Should have included "$GBYTE". It's not clear if "not used any bot" includes responses from non-Byteball holders.
Purpose of poll: To get some idea of what fraction of wallet-owners have used the altcoin exchange bot, or any bot. Also to promote both ideas.
