There was another issue about fracturing but I haven't digged deep enough yet to know what that entails. I did see someone, I think it was from bitcoin core, say something off hand that DAGs were susceptible to that but I haven't been able to find that info again yet. Can someone give me a somewhat detailed breakdown of what that entails (or point me in the right direction to learn about it) and how IOTA gets around it?
Lastly, has the coin's cryptography and implementation been peer reviewed yet by any of the experts from the crypto currency realm?
To your first point: 'fracturing' I presume is Partition Tolerance? From a CAP Theorem point of view IOTA is indeed Partition Tolerant with Eventual Consistency. This is actually a good thing, it allows IOTA to seamlessly operate in the Internet of Things, which ironically will be more about meshnets than 'Internet'. Re: Cryptography, has been and is still being reviewed, thus far no one has found any errors with it. |

I read the white paper (if you can call it that) for another DAG coin which shall remain nameless, but it appears to me to be a "centralized" coin since it will be relying on "reputable" witnesses. Does this one have anything like that?
http://www.tangleblog.com/2017/01/03/byteball-vs-iota-token/IOTA and the other DAG that you read about essentially only share one commonality: they both use a DAG protocol. The similarities pretty much end there. That's not to comment on the utility of each. |

IOTA is a long-term project I believe.

Great. What does conf. rate actually mean? What is the reason for confirming only 70% of transactions? Is it good or bad? |

guys in the price now for iota is around 34Mbtc
thats a growth of almost x70 in comparism to the first price around 0.46Mbtc
now the question is wheter to invest now or wait until it hit the exchanges.
because all the people holding iota now want to make a nice profit so they gonna dump a bunch of their coins and the price will go down right ?
What do you think ?

Buying pressure will be very high if everything goes well with the testnet. First cryptocurrency with no-fee transactions and solved scalability issues. I'd say hold. |

It's just a limitation of how our universe and physic works. (limitation of where the speed of light is finite). A real network with latency can't get 100% of transactions confirmed. It's like a sheep herd in a blizzard. Every sheep tries to get into the middle of the herd but there will inevitably be sheep on the edge. Even in bitcoin, they do not have 100% confirmation rate, the transactions get removed from mem pool after a certain time. They sort this by prioritizing the highest paid fees first.. In IOTA it is prioritized by having the highest POW. |

SERIOUSLY?!
WHERE ARE ALL THE SPAMMERS AND ATTACKERS!
"IOTA SPAMMERS" IS FAKE NEWS!
THERE ARE AND NEVER WILL BE!
DON'T TRUST THE LIES!
I BOUGHT IOTA BECAUSE I HEARD THAT THERE WERE GOING TO BE SPAMMERS WHO WOULD HELP ME MAKE MY TRANSACTIONS FASTER AND I WAS LIED TO!!!!
I WANT MY MONEY BACK SCAMMERS!!!!
You can sell your IOTAs at YDX. If you just bought your coins they are still at ydx so you could just sell now for a nice win , you are pathetic if you are crying like this when you can sell now and have the btc + the profit in your wallet in 2 houzrs Sniff sniff...I'm sorry, you are right. I will stop complaining. It's just that all the other cryptos have spammers, attackers, haters, competitors, and trolls, while IOTA has none of that. Everybody loves IOTA and nobody hates it. Why? It's not fair? But i guess that nobody ever said that life WAS fair. I was going to dump my iota on Yassin DEX until I heard about the MAM, private trannys, and Oracle feed support which my generous foundation donation funded, so I guess, I will hold on loosely and don't let go. Every other crypto community has trolls, haters, and spam attackers except for us... And the bitter irony is that our community welcomes spammers with love and affection, yet they don't pay us any attention. Maybe if we paid them, then they would come here and hate on us. Let's try. What if we start a completely grassroots 100% community funded foundation (like how we all funded the IOTA Foundation like a family), but this time, the money raised will go toward funding the most infamous attackers and spammers. If we all pitch in just a little, then maybe we could raise enough money to get the DAO attacker, or maybe the guy who hacked Mt. GOX, or maybe the agents who took the bitcoins for themselves. Imagine the publicity we could get on coindesk if we convinced Ed Snowden to make an appearance at our IOTA Hackathon! Spammers, pirates, hackers, and haters welcome. Come 1 come all and get paid free IOTA to do what you love to do...hack. hate. Attack! (Pretty please) I will donate 1 Gi Come on team IOTA, let's unite once more, except for the cheap freeloaders who failed to donate to our flundation (you know who you are!). Let's do a community fundraiser that will showcase the fact that nobody will show up to hate on IOTA. Even if they are getting paid. Why? Because nobody hates IOTA! ok let's do that, but please don't forget to take your medication anymore. |
