The referral link is the fallback if no referrer can be found tracing back 5 steps on the payment used for the attestation. Any attested wallet found during the trace will be the referrer. Only if no attested wallets are found, the link will be used to determine the referrer.

Well, than I'm missing lots of referral rewards ;) (addresses from this post).
Then I've made another tutorial post with referral link to the wallet and started to receive few rewards (but still far less than referred users).
It's like the bot has problems with determinating the sender of the 0.0006 GB and the ref link helps.
Or maybe I messed something up? I've tried attesting two accounts on the same Byteball address ;) and then returned to the first one.
Did you check with Explorer if you truly were a first one to send the Bytes to new user?
Hah, maybe that's the case :)
Just got request for this address:
https://explorer.byteball.org/#7CC5QETO365SSCRUEGHQAFY5LK6ZYMBC
But someone was faster :) But for the most part I think I was first? Will check it for the other addresses, thanks!
In fact - it's seems there are users / bots that try to send the 0.0006 GB before anyone else (also under my tutorial posts) to steal the reward :D This kinda solves the mistery!
Yeah, maybe happens also in my comments too because I have not yet been able to send anybody the fee because every address I check, already have been funded, sometimes within 5 minutes after posting.
Too bad that they don't know that 0.0006 GB is clear overkill because they only need to send as much as 49 588 Bytes (or 0.000049588 GByte) :D
When the wallet chooses which input to use for a payment, it will chose the input closest to, but not less than, the output required. The input closest to the 49,000 + fees will be chosen. If there are two identical and equally close inputs, I think the latest input is the one that will be used.
What? But then this "whoever funds first" rule is not correct? You would also need to fund the most accurate amount too, which is 49 588 Bytes?
