IOTA is the next big thing

[generalizethis]

No its not. IOTA just got hyped from the fake news. I think the p2p technology to confirm the transaction is genius. But it need a lot of time to bring this project running and all the people and devices using it.

Fake news? Are people still doling out this bad intel?

My guess is when IOTA threatens Litecoin's place again, the dogs of fud will be released again.

Just had a dream where IOTA was at $20.

Just had a dream where IOTA was at $20. 

haha, it will certainly get there, it's just the question of when. By the end of the year for sure, probably even before that.

XRB looks funny to me. It has risen to a 2 billion market cap on small exchanges on very low volume where even 1-2 BTCs could eat whole sell walls and rise the price? Everything combined with a heavy shilling campaign on reddit... Mhh I dont trust it.

Looks funny eh? Just wait until it get listed on Binance probably this week because Raiblocks has now the most votes in coin of the month and IOTA still has a lot to prove unlike XRB which already has a working product.

hehe, Iota and Xrp, battle of the bubbles.

Go, children, go!

Liking IOTA and its premise. Just wish i could withdraw it from binance at some stage.

Question to those who really enjoyed the IOTA for transactions. Are transactions carried out very quickly, as some certify and what is the potential for processing transactions per second? I would like to know your opinion.

IOTA's idea looks great, however, I'm a bit afraid because of low adoption among big exchanges.

Don't be afraid. Adoption is coming earlier than you think

I think more exchanges for IOTA are crucial to ease the access to the token also directly via Fiat and more markets. Dominik Schiener said that several exchanges are going to add IOTA in the next time, but are just waiting for some things (update?) to be done.

IOTA is also my No.1 bet when it comes to Coinbase. It is a Top 10 crypto and who is Coinbase going to add from the big ones?
BTC, BCH, ETH and LTC are already listed, Ripple will be listed too. You guys think they are going to add Cardano or DASH?
Honestly even looking at the top 10 or 20 I see a lot of needless crap that needs to go.

XMR and IOTA are the two coins on Coinbase for 2018.

I agree that some of the top 20 coins should never be there. Things like BTG, XVG, BCC. These trash coins need to go. I'm currious as to which coins you think are garbage and just pumped up by people that's only looking to get rich quick and doesn't do research on the actual coin.

I'm also curious for your thoughts on this new coin that I've been looking into - BAT.

Amazing news for IOTA guys, just waiting for official confirmation. Be ready for an amazing year for IOTA

If this is true, that's really good news! IOTA was often criticised for not being decentral because of the coordinator. However if not today I'm pretty sure they will make it sooner or later.

This is why that's good news for Iota in terms of IOT exposure

very good

IOTA has great poten potential bitcoin transfers cots to much now..

Iota is mystery for me in recent days, while many coins go up IOt stays around 3.8-4$. such a revolutionary idea and technology stands behind IOt and in my opinion this coin deserves way more. but I will buy even more at this value hoping for decent profit one day. as always we come to the virtue of patience.

I think this is because IOTA comes without the need for miners which is a thread against a multi billion dollar industry. Too much market manipulation at the moment, just hodl..

so  do you think  will never  go higer  because  of the  lackness  of interests  of mining  farms?

It seems that Bosch is trying to have a good market share using IOTA. The question is how other corporate giants will react to this, perhaps they will want to create something using their own algorithms.

Bosch supplies to many of those companies already--the most likely to do it would be Tesla, but Bosch supplies the "brain" to their cars: http://www.bbc.com/news/av/technology-40509282/bosch-brain-drives-autonomous-tesla-car

There is no doubt that IOTA is one of the most successful coins in 2017. it has grown up more than 400% in few weeks. with internet of the thing technology, it is one of the biggest competitors of Bitcoin. Investing in it is always the right choice.

[bitcub]

IOTA , Cardano, NEO and Railblocks are the top coins you should watch for in 2018. Iota and Cardano is a threat for BTC and ETH.
