IOTA

[GeSh]

Where is result of stress test? I want to know them. Really hope that stress test was successful and next step exchanges. We need spread the world about iota among others traders too

Exchanges won't be for a while. There's absolutely no reason to rush IOTA, and there shouldn't be any desire to get traders involved.

Sorry if already asked, is there a light wallet?

Yes. Install https://github.com/iotaledger/wallet/releases/tag/v2.1.1
When installing, choose light wallet.

Edit: after installation you have to enter a host. Choose one from that list: http://www.iotasupport.com/lightwallet.shtml

Hey folks, what's the highest Bid on Yassin's exchange?  I can't believe how long this Alt-Pump has run without a significant retrace. 

...just want to crunch numbers & daydream a little bit!

What is peoples opinions on the marketcap? Is this a bad time to buy in?

Marketcap = $116 million

[drawingthesun]

How much of the supply does the dev team hold?

Is there a way to get historical data?

It's good time to buy in, iota is still undervalued considering the partnership with ubuntu and innogy. Machine economy is the future.

It is still a good time, IOTA is not some average BS and it is still undiscovered by crypto markets.

IOTA:  No fees
         Offline transactions possible
         Messaging for IOT
         Corporate interest
         Designed with use cases in mind
         Unlimited scaling
         Transaction speed ready for IOT
         Anonymous transactions for companies

        Offline transactions possible

Is this like Bitcoin offline tx where another service provides the exchange until you commit to the blockchain?

         Messaging for IOT

Could this be a competitor to the Signal protocol?

         Anonymous transactions for companies

And for anyone? How does one make an anon tx?

[wizzardTim]

Let' s also not forget that IOTA is also safe from Quantum Computer attacks. BTC is not.

I have answer only for your first question. No, it is not done by any other service, its feature made possible by Tangle architecture, it works very diferently from blockchain, there is no need to confirm whole chain, because there is no chain, one transaction confirms another and so on.

100% of token have been distributed to investors. The devs invested with their own money and got tokens distributed like any other investor.

Also a foundation was build with investors donation: https://forum.iotatoken.com/t/iota-foundation-announcement/174

So is BYTE IOTA's biggest competitor

Which is better?

So is BYTE IOTA's biggest competitor

Which is better? 

From my research so far they are apples to oranges, they are both strong contenders and probably going to end up as duel kings of DAG crypto.

IOTA = Internet of things.
Byteballs = DAG for people, smart contracts.

At the moment IOTA is worth $116 million, essentially a top ten crypto in terms of market cap. To me this tells me the marketcap is mature.

I have bought a few IOTA although not too many as the marketcap is already huge.

IOTA is designed for the internet of things and attempts to allow the internet of things to transfer value fast and without the scaling limits of a blockchain.

Then we have Byteballs which isn't aimed at IoT but rather being a DAG crypto for the people with smart contracts.

Importantly the marketcap of Byteballs is quite small and not as huge as IOTA.

I would say that Byteballls is an early stage DAG crypto and IOTA a late stage fully mature DAG crypto.

I'm not sure Byteball is a competitor at this point:

Byte exists exclusively in cryptoland, has a dev team of 1 or 2 and mainly speculator users, but it's on exchanges.

Iota has a Foundation of 15 members, Core Dev team of 5 (that we know about), and dozens of business partners as well as mainstream conference presentations. But because it's not on crypto exchanges, some people think it's on par with Byte.
