IOTA is the next big thing

[granchio]

I have an IOTA investment, and I have big expectations from the growing of IOTA. I hope we can see the price of IOTA much more higher in the near future.

[lumpum]

I hope they will be able to do what they set out to do, by then it would be an important player. not in cryptoland, but world-wide

There are a lot of overvalued projects in top20 on coinmarketcap, IOTA and EOS are part of the list imo. very weak tech and fundamentals

IOTA is invested by Bosch as Bosch is leading the way with 4.0 technology. They want to participate in the blockchain trend through IOTA.

It seems still need a test and a long time to be able to see the performance of IOTA, this is because IOTA is still very dependent with the dominant factor of the most influential ie bitcoin, if IOTA can fight the flow then I'm sure that IOTA will be awesome.

Yes, IOTA could be the next revolutionary thing that will bring all the world together. This ledger is entanglement and scalable, and this will be extremely helpful to the cryptocurrencies, on the one hand. IOTA will overcome challenges that Bicoin faces, on the other hand. Besides, IOTA has partnerships with leading companies like Microsoft.

Yes, IOTA is partnered leading companies like Bosch, VW, Fujitsu and organizations like the UN, but not Microsoft--they were a participant in the datamarketplace and the Microsoft rep gave IOTA a statement saying they were partners, but it turned out he was incorrect and there was a fallout (basically Bitcoin maximalist and Bitcoincashers trying to push the narrative, through oblivious or bias crypto media, that the IF had lied). That comedic episode taught me a lot about the scruples of people in this industry and how much worse some are than the corrupt powers-that-be they are claiming to replace. This whole market would probably be better off if those two groups disappeared as most of the infighting and dirty tactics starts there.

Thanks, for information about IOTA, After reading all the information about the coin I can say It's worth to invest in it. And as I see coin has big support of the community also.

IOTA intends to become the standard mode of transacting between Internet-connected devices in the future. “We envision IOTA to be a public, permissionless backbone for the Internet of Things that enable true interoperability between all devices,” its founders write on their website. I’m Happy to see the a lot of people like IOTA and are active investors.

IOTA has now started to be even more active in the development of the company, so I like you support this technology. The beta testing of their new wallet has already started, I think it should have a good effect on their price.

Probably the best non-math article I've read on describing how IOTA works in a generalized way in comparison to blockchain coins. There's also two more articles near the bottom for those who want to dig deeper into technical aspects of IOTA. I know 99% of speculators won't bother, but this is for rare person who wants to know how the thing works before they invest.

IOTA had a very weird distribution, so just for this I would not rely on it. Basically anything you can not mine is to be treated with caution. The sole exception I can see is Waves, because they have something really strong and working behind them, unlike IOTA, the concept-paper-coin.

IOTAs distribution was better then that of Ethereum. Even the developers had to buy the tokens. 80-90% of ETH was not mineable, yet it has a market cap of 30 Billions.
New analysis of the IOTA network shows a good distribution which is even getting better.

Waves. I have bought Waves on their ICO, when most never heard about it and they called it scam .
Yet IOTA is a whole level above it in potential.

see the development of IOTA continues to develop this is able to make the existing development on the market Cryptocurrency continues to increases quickly. with the potential of this is able to make the future for IOTA is very reliable and able to be the main in its development and price.

IOTA and SinoPac sign a merorandom of understanding (formal partnership): https://blog.iota.org/iota-and-sinopac-team-up-to-collaborate-on-digital-innovations-in-the-financial-sector-53472176554d

SinoPac and the IOTA Foundation signed a Memorandum of Understanding coming into effect immediately. The two parties will collaborate [1] on exploring the new digital innovation landscape made possible by the IOTA Tangle technology.

SinoPac is one of the largest Taiwan-based financial holding companies which operate through the Asia Pacific. SinoPac, which has been exploring blockchain and distributed ledger technologies (DLT) is now collaborating with the IOTA Foundation to explore the IOTA Tangle, an open-source permissionless distributed ledger technology beyond Blockchain.


They're building a digital notary service.

Over the past months, SinoPac has been actively developing its notary solution iCertificate, which utilizes the IOTA Tangle and its data immutability. iCertificate is a notary certification service, which applies to all kind of digital documents in the public or private sector. To ensure data security and portal convenience, iCertificate creates the hash as a unique fingerprint and signs it with the issuer’s private key to encrypt the digital document, therefore mitigating the concern of leaking sensitive data. A QR code, paired with digital certification, will also be generated to ensure convenient customer experience. iCertificate is SinoPac’s solution to enable secure and fast and certification for a multitude of documents.

IOTA is really interesting, and the good think is they had scalability in mind.
Unlike most minable coins.
It means it has future. The tanglement system is interesting, and a refreshing new approach other than blockchain.

Great written article!  But don´t you think that whole internet of things can´t work in the future?
I am afraid of hackers, I think that they will be very dangerous for internet of things.
