Great, thank you

Hello everybody. I also regret to have a mistake in my wallet. But I think it's temporary. It is necessary to give time to the developers to eliminate all errors. Good luck everyone.

The other day, too, began to emerge error in the wallet - a black screen. The other computer is working fine. Because of what the error did not understand.

IOTA ecosystem announced. Ecosystem will be ground-zero for permissionless, distributed and decentralized technology striving to build a more inclusive, resilient and prosperous world," announced the IOTA Foundation. To grow and sustain the system in the future users have donated 21.7TI (about $37 million worth of IOTA). This will be used to reward developers, creators and other contributors in the Ecosystem.

Although the IOTA Foundation is still running the show, Ecosystem has been set up to be as sustainably transparent and decentralised as possible.

"While the IOTA Foundation will lead the IOTA Ecosystem, we aim to have its development, management and governance be a community driven effort. Through broadcasted proposals and direct voting on the Tangle, the broader community will be able to nominate new initiatives, vote on important decisions, and help guide the Ecosystem’s maturation. As the Ecosystem grows and expands, we will be calling on community members to manage various focus areas of the Ecosystem as well as propose and develop new ones."

Like many decentralised communities, IOTA has decided to create a self-managing democratic digital utopia. Unlike most, it can use the tangle system to have a better chance of succeeding.

Ecosystem is being designed to allow for transparent management of funds, and an almost completely community-directed experience. To this end, it will incorporate tangle-based features including:

• A voting system
• A program to nominate new proposals and initiatives
• Contributor competitions
• Community-directed funding and rewards systems
• Transparent benchmarks, performance criteria and accountability metrics for Ecosystem contributors
• It will also include a reputation system

"A decentralized reputation system will be implemented where anyone in the IOTA community can share their voice in favor or against the trustworthiness of Ecosystem contributors and the quality of their work via transactions on the Tangle. This will make accountability in the Ecosystem fully transparent and devoid of capricious third-party intervention."

It's safe to assume that the reputation system will be abused by many community members to the fullest extent possible, as a tool for undermining confidence in one's rivals and stamping out competing projects wherever possible, especially when there's money or ideology at stake.

On the plus side, this inevitable systemic abuse will be completely transparent and hard to keep getting away with.

Anyone who's really knowledgeable about IOTA want to get paid to edit an article about it?

Here it is: https://lunyr.com/article/IOTA_(technology)

As you can see, it's kinda short.

IOTA and the Big “Q”
By Spencer Ceurvorst

http://thehodlr.com/iota-and-the-big-q/

What is “Q”?
Well to be blunt, no one knows. I would like to explore all of the possibilities and try to determine the most realistic answer. The below theories are listed in no particular order.

Theory 1: Qubic

At this time, not much is known about what Qubic is, other than its curious relationship to JINN processors. According to the user “Come-from-Beyond” from NXTForum, a “JINN processor is a bunch of independent cores. A piece of code (entity) running on a core does some computations and can interact via messages with other entities running on other cores… There were math co-processors speeding up floating-point operations in the past. Now we have GPUs that are used to render 3D scenes. JINN has its specific usage too, it’s designed to lower interaction latency of distributed computations.”

With this technology, “Q” may bring distributed computing models to IOTA protocols with JINN processors. A user would be able to access the global computational power of all JINN devices in order to lower latency to a minimal state.

Theory 2: Qualcomm’s C-V2X Technology

C-V2X, which stands for “Cellular Vehicle-to-Everything”, is a new chip set announced by Qualcomm that was recently showcased at CES 2018. It aims to “empower the (auto) industry, including automakers and roadside infrastructure providers, with enhanced V2X capabilities for safety and autonomous driving.” C-V2X is optimized to take full advantage of future 5G markets while also improving autonomous driving, secure communication, and cost efficiency. IOTA has already been proposed as a solution for auto-related issues with partnerships such as Volkswagen and Bosch. A potential IOTA partnership could help bridge the IoT world with the future of the auto industry.

Theory 3: “Q” May be Related to Oracles

One attribute of distributed ledgers, such as the Tangle, is that they are cut off from the outside world. Implementing Oracles helps accomplish three main objectives: importing outside data into the Tangle (such as timestamps), providing solutions to computation-heavy tasks, and acting as a link between other blockchains. Dominik Schiener, Co-Founder of the IOTA token, states that “With our Oracle platform we not only aim at connecting the physical world with IOTA; but we also want to enable true interoperability with all other Blockchain platforms.”

Theory 4: Quantum Computing

It is unclear where Quantum computing will be in a few years, but Google has already announced plans to create a 49 qubit computer and Microsoft has recently released Q#, a language used in Quantum computing. With IOTA’s Quantum resistance, it is not hard to imagine that “Q” relates to future IoT innovations and relationships with Quantum computing.

Conclusion
If I was forced to put money on one of these four theories, I would bet on Qubic. With IOTA’s already close relationship to JINN processors, it seems to be the most plausible option. Coming from a non-developer stance, it is difficult to ascertain the truth and predict what will actually happen. Whatever happens though, IOTA fans hope they that they will be able to agree with Sønstebø’s hype. 2018 is gearing up to be a big year for IOTA.

I wanted to invest but I red that the wallet is very risky to use? Many people lost all the money, is this true? How can I save IOTA for years without risk

The wallet is not risky, the users are the problem. You can use the wallet for longterm storage without any problems. Just follow the instructions that are available and you are good to go. 99% of users never had any problems with the wallet, but you won't read about that of course.

Read this for a start: https://forum.helloiota.com/1973/Best-practices-for-using-the-IOTA-wallets-safely

And always download the wallet from the official sources only: https://github.com/iotaledger/wallet/releases

As explained many times, there was a snapshot. You need to download the newest wallet version, enter your seed and generate a couple of addresses. Then your balance should be appear again. Read the official news in order to stay up to date about such developments.

This information is just FUD. I have been storing my IOTA since more than a year on the wallet and nothing bad happened. A lot of people are misinformed and spread there negative opinions. If you deal with the topic you will see it is just FUD. But if you are wary about using the client then wait until the new Trinity wallet (it is in its final development stage) was released.

[STT]

Trinity is more user friendly then ?   That alone would be something to be bullish about as the vast majority of users are just casual consumers of crypto currency rather then especially clued up on the internal workings of what makes blockchains especially different to anything else I think.
  Thats a plus and a negative, theres a burden on developers to round off the sharp edges to prevent people accidentally screwing things up.   I do think crypto in general wont go far without passing the drunk test, ie. just how bad or good is it for people paying for their drinks or meal while drunk when out on the town.
   The banks themselves are in this kind of APP market trying to encourage people to pay with various convenient methods.  Of course that side is FIAT based and I really want to see a super easy crypto standard that cant be screwed up by putting a dot in the wrong place or pressing the wrong button in haste and paying a $600 transaction fee like I read one charity did after receiving many donations to its wallet

Thats the nature of success, people wander into this who are only half interested.    Some of them are intelligent and can self navigate eventually and some need a warning sign every 5 metres they venture

I got a few questions.

• What is the current transaction speed for IOTA?
  
• Is it possible to have large scale instant transactions on IOTA?
• I read that the transaction time will decrease with more users, why is that and how many users do IOTA need to have instant transactions?

[petrserebrennikov321]

In principle, a good service in my opinion. You can use it if there is no better alternative.

Hello guys and girls ! I'm pretty interested in IOTA and I just ran my full node, I'm looking for neighbors...
I already post in forum.helloiota.com and on reddit nodesharing section but I have no answer for the moment. I'd be happy to share my full node, please mp me if you're interested too.
