It seems FBI found use case for non transparent blockchains like Monero https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0AHHo9OXiwE&feature=youtu.be&t=40m35sBlockchain is the best way to secure the information. I think you will see all banks to come to the blockchain. Keeping records through blockchain, because it will become the best way to do so. You cant break the blockchain, you cant change anything on the blockchain. So that bring us to last thing. You cant change anything on blockchain. To some little things that have to be worked out, like example we have many witness programs. So if we know who the person is and we cant change who the person is, then that become the jeopardy to that witness. So the privacy issue comes into play about. Those are the things that has to be tweaked out.This guy likes "blockchain" mentions it in six times in six sentences in a row, but fails to mention "Bitcoin" LOL Wait--you mean Bitcoin is the only blockchain and he couldn't be referring to the technology that Bitcoin uses? |

Have you heard about Byteball? Its also based on DAG, already have a working product, it has smart-contract platform with a lot of features. You can send coin via email, already listed on major exchange like Bittrex, and other small exchange like Cryptopia and others. I don't know why its less popular then other DAG crypto like NEO/IOTA. Byteball absolutely is a good investment. Others coin like NANO (formerly Raiblock) is also DAG, though it seems like it is just "hype" coin.
It charges fees, so industries that want 0 fee tx, like the IOT market, haven't adopted it. NEO charges fees too, but I think it is closer to ETH in its design--AFAIK it's not a DAG. |

Wow! This is great news for IOTA. There is no other coin that has the great valuable and amount of partnerships IOTA has. Truly amazing!
The news is good, but unfortunately due to the current situation it did not affect the price. The top 100 look pretty red--not much you can do about that. The UN won't create demand until they implement IOTA in the field. |

IOT is perfect. There have been few projects that can do this in a healthy way. Since IOTA transferred it to the blockchain, the best is for now, but there are many more powerful projects on the subject.
Yes, indeed, iota has enough competitors, there are a couple of coins that are not inferior to IOTA in their technological part, everything depends on marketing. No there's not. Most of the coins claiming suitability for IOT don't even have their networks up, let alone tested in the real world (they're literally ERC20 tokens), meanwhile IOTA is doing presentations at a UN symposium. |

Iota has good project but in the real world it doesn't work.
I lose 1127 iota, at current price 0.26BTC by hacker that exploited the tangle.
Wasn't my fault, i didn't expose my seed, i just stored my coins at tangle and someone stole it.
Tangle is totally unsecure, don't trust it.
You're full of shit. The network has never been hacked. The security on a seed is higher than Bitcoin, so unless you reused an address or created a seed with low entropy, your IOTA are fine. My guess is you didn't reattach your address after a snapshot and didn't bother to troubleshoot. What's your address? I didn't said that network has hacked, but exploited. My seed was ok, but some problem with reattach, i did dozen times and didn't work, some one did that wasnt't me and stole my funds from 1 address not from entire balance from seed: https://forum.helloiota.com/Topic1814.aspxFrom the linked thread, and what you were told by those trying to help you, you reused an address and revealed part of your address to the world--that's not an exploit, that's someone using brute force after you revealed part of your seed. The same thing that keeps IOTA quantum resistant is why you don't reuse adddresses, sorry you had to learn that the hard way, but it's not a network insecurity--and that's the way you were trying to frame it. If you don't understand the technology, you shouldn't be using it--it's not a BTC clone and you can't assume it works the same. Luckily the newer wallets won't allow you to make this mistake, but the early wallet was released as barebones and was explained as such to the community who demanded after the devs weren't going to release one at all. TBH, I wish they had only released a CLI, as Monero did early on, so noobs wouldn't even be able to use it and create this type of negative feedback based on their false assumptions about BETA technology. |

100 dollars is not much, unfortunately. I would advise $ 100 to buy some ripple, and maybe even the Ethereum. But buy them in the long run. To six months, and possibly cat $ 100 turned into a large amount.
Or use that $100 to buy a better bot. |
