Really curious if this will prove to be big setback

" IOTA has come out to clarify that it currently has no formal partnership with Microsoft, despite its announcement from earlier in November."

For them--that story might get them sued. Apparently it's not ok to print FUD as news.

"This is an absolute fabrication by the author at @TheNextWeb and IOTA Foundation's legal team is on this. We have never lied about a single thing and thus got nothing to "admit". We got all evidence of approval from Microsoft as well."

This isn't specifically about Iota, but it is a good walkthrough about data marketplaces for anyone interested in a deeper understanding on how data from the IOT will be monetized.

I opened this discussion because I think there are new developments about IOTA, the community should be aware and your opinion matters most

The link below  talks about private transactions on iota and imagine with a absolute zero fee!

This link is a real use case of iota

Oyster is also using iota to store encrypted data

Here is a price prediction from this institute

Last but most important, What do you think?

Has IOTA released the private transactions capability yet?

Oyster is the first project to use IOTA's tangle technology and is currently underrated if they can deliver on what they promise

No, still testing stages--what they are testing is a mixer, so not exactly the privacy you want if you are worried about a three letter agency or censorship resistance.

I have  also  bought  some  Oyster pearl  coins (PRL) on Etherdelta (the only exange  that  have them) traded at  few cents  and  I have red that  they use both Ethereum and  IOTA platform

I am  very happy that  IOTA is gaining the consideration which it deserves. When it  will  implement smart contracts  it  will be huge

I am  expecting a  price of  50$  if  smart contract  are implemented on MIOTA

I think it could go above 15$ next year, but before that I expected some kind of correction.

I don't necessarily disagree with this outcome or that there will be correction before 15, but given that they still have to announce what Q is--I think it still has yet to make another jump in December.

yeah, possible. For me it`s a longtime Investment. Iota is still in the beginning with wallet and so on... they have huge partnerships and i`m sure the Team will doing well in the future.

[davecrypto]

because of the proven to be false rumors and FUD, IOTA dropped hard.

Now it's time to buy cheap in my opinion.

After people recognize that all the rumors were complete bullshit they will regret selling low

IOTA in my opinion can never be a sustainable investment as long as someone can hijack your IOTA coins. This is not a proper Blockchain, this is something different and I don't think it can be trusted. I purchased some IOTA a few months ago and spend 2 months trying to access my wallet. When I eventually got access to my wallet my balance was 0

After much searching it turns out that the IOTA foundation is minding (confiscated) my IOTA and there is some crap reclaim process that I followed to try and get my IOTA back. I still have not got them back. To me this seems like a scam.

IOTA’s unique technology makes it an exciting opportunity for yield-hungry investors. For example, we modeled its upside potential based on previous growth trajectories in the cryptocurrency space, then took our IOTA price prediction from the lower end of the spectrum. We still ended up with an estimate that offers nearly four-digit gains to investors.

IOTA price prediction for 2018: $4.98

I don't know if I agree with that. I think it'll reach $5 in January.  People might get attracted to IOTA due to issues mentioned in the article and it's dirt cheap compare to other older alts.

Maybe you should try the reclaim process again--AFAIK most people haven't had any issues, though troubleshooting isn't really everyone's cup of tea.

You have to remember this is new software--bitcoin sucked when you could get it for $1.

I guess price will be about 30-35$ in the end of 2018.

[fia_naila]

Iota price has spike recently because they already open their data market and its awesome. From now iota will growth healthy not spike but sill can growth upm i predict $15 per miota is possible for 2018. Or maybe $20. In 2021 it may reach $50 and it is reasonable price imo

[iwillhodl]

in my opinion
we can see 6$ in the end of 2017
we can see 20$ in the end of 2018

[giveen]

It will fall now as the former ceo confirmed that Microsoft is just a participant and not a partner. No one has yet confirmed this news but it surely had a negative impact on the price atleast for now.

For long term hold if Microsoft is indeed a participant that would mean more companies might collaborate with them i have already purchase 100 iota maybe it might be profitable in the future.

Here's the whole story, please research more--getting annoyed at correcting this misinformation over and over and over again.
