CFB; I haven't had much time to read over the whitepaper, but can you briefly explain IOTA's ability to interact with other Blockchain's (like BTC and ETH). I think this is a killer app that has yet to be achieve in an efficient manner by anyone else. Here is all I've gathered from the IOTA website:
Iota can communicate to blockchains such as Bitcoin and Ethereum to form a cohesive collaboration with these networks. It can strengthen these blockchains' security by providing checkpoints and also act as an oracle for smart contracts.
Can you elaborate alt all, perhaps with a use case?

A good description will require a lot of brain resources, I'm working on a whitepaper now and can't distract much, I'll ask David to reply instead of me. |

More use-cases will be illustrated soon as well as more information will be made available. We were actually just talking with a core Ethereum developer about this topic. Still a lot of discussion to be done to come up with very clear overlap that everyone agrees on of course, but this will also be up to the community. We are open to talk with any community which has a great platform, but can't support scalable micro-transactions for lightweight devices. |

Okay, thanks, I figured it might be too early to get a definitive answer. It has a lot of potential use cases which is exciting! |

Problem of adoption is real issue u may have great idea but most people still not know what bitcoin is. Is good u pave path with this but is no market outside altcoin niche.

It is more fair because it means it's entirely up for grabs to anyone. There is no coins arbitrarily set aside for the developers. If the community insist, please feel free to donate free iotas to us after the ico  So there won't even be any restrictions as to how many a person can buy and hold, I'm guessing. Which leads to the question, how easy would it be for someone to buy 20% of the ICO and just play around with the market for the next coming months and manipulate it to gain more and more coins? |

This is obviously true for any coin of any kind that can be bought whether it's bitcoin, ether, nxt, bts, or any other crypto. But to purchase 20% and then successfully manipulate the market to acquire more and more seems dubious at best and would cost a lot. Those who elect to purchase IOTA tokens will hopefully do so because they are interested in the tech and thus wont be manipulated easily. |

You could always issue it as a NXT asset and accept only SuperBTC if you're not looking for a NXT investment

if you missed the Jinn original auction, you can catch the Iota crowd-sale to make up. |
