Really?

Apologies for asking.

Good luck with your project. Looks like it has a lot of potential.

Take care,

J

It would have been nice to have been helped. Instead I am quizzed on my reasons for purchase.

It certainly isn't the norm here in Ireland and it certainly doesn't feel welcoming.

It's unknown when Iota appears on exchanges.

Just curious. Are you going to answer the man's question? Seems like a fair question if you ask me.

As you can see, hes new around here, and stated that he sees the potential, for use cases I imagine

Isn't that all of us? We see that its a groundbreaking innovation.

Like all of us he probably, just wants to buy now, and be an early adopter, and avoid having to pay a premium once it has multiple uses and is in great demand.

I know CFB is not trying to be difficult, and just didnt realize that his response might startle, and confuse a newbie.

Welcome aboard friend. Everyone, and im sure CFB is happy to see your interest in the project.

He did answer him, look two posts up.  He doesn't know when exchanges will adopt Iota, so he doesn't know when anyone can buy some.

Haha CfB the salesman. No, but seriously he's not trying to be rude or offputting. It's just that we (IOTA founders) are not interested in facilitating focus on speculation, so his question is legit, what are you planning to do with it? If the answer is 'hold it and hope it magically increase in value without any effort on my part', then you are on your own.

As for when it'll be added to exchanges: I can't disclose the names of the exchanges that we are talking with, but there are already several who are interested, so it is reasonable to assume that acquiring IOTA via an exchange will happen quite soon after official launch.

Maybe he'll take his IOTA for a candlelit dinner?

Or down the dog track?

U.S. government to use IoT devices to spy on citizens. No surprise there.

http://libertyblitzkrieg.com/2016/02/10/top-u-s-official-admits-government-will-use-internet-of-things-to-spy-on-the-public/

My question is, can and should Jinn Labs take an official position on this? To what degree is it possible to develop products that account for such government misuses?

0.00001 BTC for one IOTA puts it to 20th place by market cap. One should be crazy to buy in at that price before even the beta.

I'm willing to buy any amount between 300K and 1M for 1/3 of that price, so I'm buying 1M for 3.5 BTC. Please PM me if you're interested.

The difference between 20th place and 5th place is 10x.  Nxt for example was once valued at 14x the .00001 Iota price today in BTC price and 33x in actual money price.  ETH is currently 100x the price. Now I am holding 90% of my Iota long term. But even for the short term investor, typically coins with huge support and real innovation concepts can initially jump into the top 5-10 market caps the first few months.

Nxt was the first POS coin and ETH collected 30 million dollars. They most likely spend $25000 on marketing every month, so there's no reason to take them into considetation.

Iota is not going to fifth place anytime soon and even what I'm willing to pay is risky. I know CfB is a damn genious so I'm ready to take that risk. If there wasn't him behind Iota I'd just put money in Lisk IPO which is already a solid tech.

Alright before this gets out of hand:

Nxt had tops 70 original buyers ( real number probably closer to 30-40 based on activity ) who combined put in less than 2500 dollars. I won’t go into why Nxt evolved the way it did, but please stick to facts. IOTA raised approximately half a million from 350+ people.

Ethereum also did not raise 30 million, they raised (in BTC) around 18 million USD, which they failed to secure so they suffered a loss of 9 million dollars in volatility. So they were left with 9 million, which they burnt through quite rapidly through (my opinion) mismanagement of funds and overstaffing. Again, let’s stick to facts.

While Nxt was the first PoS coin, IOTA is the first blockless, quantum secure and lightweight token. So this argument is also not really a valid metric for hypothetical valuation of software.

So that is 0/3 valid arguments from you. Now to the real reason I am replying: please do not pollute the threads with speculation, make a separate thread about it. IOTA is an IoT tech project, not a pump and dump investor scheme. How much is the software going to be worth on launch? No one knows yet. How much will it be worth 1-2-3 months post-launch? NO ONE knows, and if they claim they do they are lying. This vacuous speculation only derails the real purpose of IOTA: real life IoT applications. This is the *only* thing that should be in focus here. If you only want to buy IOTA because CfB coded my vision with Mtchl’s formulas and math prowess and you got no other vision for IOTA yourself, then I don’t even see why you even want to buy it? You clearly have no idea what it even is and only look for a quick buck, sorry but we have explicitly stated repeatedly that we do not care about such leechers.

You are free to speculate all you want, but do not do it in any of the official IOTA threads please.
