IOTA

[wizzardTim]

Iota price is a steal. It's a minor miracle there hasn't been a large pump

Exactly! Maybe it's due to BTC ATH - but the pump is inevitable imho, since it is very undervalued.

Welcome to the IOTA Whales'Club! Anything that can help progress the ecosytem of IOTA deserves a funding.

This is a guideline on how to get funding from the club.

We welcome all members of the public (developers, small startups, proof of concepts, marketing or simply experimenting/research and more) to take a pitch at getting funding for their projects related to IOTA. Anything that can help IOTA in any positive way.

These are the process you need to follow to get funding.

1.You will start your application through #general channel on https://iotatangle.slack.com/
You can get yourself an invite for the slack here at http://slack.iota.org/

2.If your idea is liked by any of the club members, they will invite you to our private channel #thepitch
Or if you feel that your project and needs certain levels of descretion you may talk to the iota foundation members (eg. @David @Dom)
and they can invite you direct into the WhalesClub #whalesden for a more confidential pitch.
Or if you know any of the club members you can directly talk to them about it first and they can invite you to the correct channel for your funding needs.

3.You tell us your ideas/plans/roadmaps/costs/benefits etc. to the club members in there, and all members will decide for themselves if they would want to pitch in any funds for your project.

4.Club members will either require a 50% of whales voting agreement or get an agreement from @david for approval to release funds.
(This is designed so that members cannot fund into fake their projects to withdraw out their pledged funds. Club members are allowed to take a pitch as well.)

5.We will then ask the IOTA Foundation to release the amount approved for your funding.

Awesome news, David. Thank you!

Indeed! This kind news can push any coins over 100M marketcap easily if they are on Polo.

Was Ubuntu "the big deal" mentionned months ago ?

there are much bigger iota big deal announcements ready to be made in the near futue. if you read the news on slack you might know that.

Aye, there were tons of hints in slack that gave an idea to where it may lead, and I'm really glad the team doesn't communicate unsettled or ongoing deals, as it would lead to unjustified hype. An NDA is mandatory for all of these I guess

In fact don't worry about which company is part of the big deal or not as you won't be disappointed. Rather focus on how YOU could help IOTA. Do you have an idea of a cool usecase? Nice, funds to sponsor you are already here (ask for details in Slack) Do you know good devs with expertise that could help the project? Awesome, get them on Slack. Do you know a company that could be interested in the tech? Sweet, introduce them to David or Dom. None of the above? Well then help spread the word/write blog posts/think about usecases/learn how to code/donate to devs or Foundation or bounties/talk to the right people.

I had eventually answers later with other deals mentionned further. keep on !

I need 20 TI to join the club?

[bitcampaign]

IOTA is already visible light wallet for windows, I hope in the future it is really very mild for windows users

[quasimodo]

I need 20 TI to join the club?

No, you have to pledge minimum 1TI

Code:

Minimum pledge 1Ti, message me in slack for invites (@luey), you do not need to send anything to anywhere just keep your words. (later we might set up a fund with the foundation where we can voice out how much, part of own pledge we want to chip in. Kind of like stocks where investors have a say on what/where to spend the funds, your voice is only as loud as your pledges. All IOTA Foundation members get free invite.)

Hello,

Could it be possible to list all the nodes we can use in case we use the light wallet version ?

I know only the offical one

Tell me if i'm wrong but the host is storing the tangle for lightwallet users ?

It's very fascinating how people always underestimate progress. Back in late 2015 and early 2016 when we discussed this topic 90% of those who commented considered it 'overkill' and 'scifi' to take QC into consideration. Progress is cumulative, remember that everyone.

[francism]

Quantum computing is the future, I'm glad IOTA is well prepared for this compared to other cryptos.

Are the whales making donations to projects, or investing in them?

They are pledging them, funds pledged are sent to IOTA Foundation for escrow and are not refundable.
They can only to be used for making progress to IOTA, so whales choose whether they want to fund a project by donation or investment with a promise of some return benefits etc.
That is up for further discussion between the funding whales and project managers etc.

Innogy post mentions Fiat tokens on iota. Could this mean that iotatokens will soon be worthless?

No. You must mean the graph in Stoker's blog - https://medium.com/iotatangle/automating-machine-transactions-and-building-trust-in-the-4th-industrial-revolution-d3219a157396#.852c69mik

To me it looks like through an outside wallet, the other crypto and fiat tokens can interact/inter-operate with IOTA network(for instance, IOTA can inter-operate with Rootstock and Ethereum as an oracle and data provider). To achieve the high efficency, within the IOTA network and the machines, IOTA token is the medium for exchange and trade

I should have looked closer. It looks like you've said. I somehow thought you could have all kinds of tokens on the iota network tho.
