IOTA is the next big thing

IOTA exhibiting at VW's booth at CEBIT: https://www.cebit.de/exhibitor/volkswagen/G401247

CeBIT is the largest and most internationally representative computer expo. The trade fair is held each year on the Hanover fairground, the world's largest fairground, in Hanover, Germany. It is considered a barometer of current trends and a measure of the state of the art in information technology. It is organized by Deutsche Messe AG.[1]

With an exhibition area of roughly 450,000 m² (5 million ft²) and a peak attendance of 850,000 visitors during the dot-com boom, it is larger both in area and attendance than its Asian counterpart COMPUTEX and its no-longer held American equivalent COMDEX.

I have long purchased IOTA, I believe that this year we will finally see a good growth.

I was upset with this coin today. I can not understand why the price so sharply went down. I hope that the coin will quickly recover.

Not sure what you are talking about--it went down ~5% after a week of gains. That's hardly sharp or upsetting.

I am glad that IOTA is still in a very good condition. I think, that there will be a massive rise in a few months.

@ Generalizethis: what I your opinion about the release of today? Is qubic in line with your expectations?

Personally I think the news is great and I really hope that they can make a nice progress the upcoming months. Yet, most people on reddit seem to be a bit disappointed.

I think those that were expecting a release or some big partnership were disappointed. Not sure why the countdown video was so high production, but that seems why most inferred something bigger than a website outlining more about Q.  I didn't read anything into it and assumed the developers were telling the truth when they said that it would just outline more details, so I wasn't suprised and am happy to see where they are heading. I think once more technical details are revealed that most people will understand what the IF is trying to accomplish. Or not, it doesn't really matter long term as the goal is to make IOTA ubiquitous with the IOT, so most everyone using it will have no clue what it is or what it does.

I think so too! This is the very first coin I invested in December! She has a very cool idea! I think everything will be fine later on in this project!

IOTA is building a long-term development plan and I am confident its management team will have a way to develop its coin. IOTA has a huge community of supporters so I believe that if I build trust from investors, IOTA will grow in the long term.

Exactly. Talk about long-term potential.

Just to add to one of the other reasons why IOTA is a good buy, it is not even listed on all the huge exchanges yet! I can imagine when it gets listed on bittrex or kucoin, massive volume will follow and of course give the price a good pump. Buy now lol. #ObligatoryShill

I agree OP, this IOTA is the next big thing in the market because of their development and technologies are one of the reasons that this coin is legit. I should invest it, if I got on extra because you explained it very clear and I understood it well. Thank you OP!

I saw a lot of people that dumped their IOTA coins in the last ocuple of weeks and I think this was the wrong decision. I will hold my coins because I expect some huge pumps because people will start to adopt IOTA!

"Sell the news," seems in play, and given that it will take years to implement Q fully (though I wonder how many get that it will be iterative, rather than one big release), most speculators will take their profits now and try to find the next news to sell on. This is pretty standard behavior for speculators as most are more worried about opportunity costs than the long term health of a project. It's a different mindset than investors, who usually average a price in and try take profits only as a project matures--though I wonder if some speculators are totally ignoring capitol gains tax and will be subject tax penalties later on.

Why not? Trading and speculation are not bad strategies. And it give more profit often than simple holding. If we say about alts. On the base coins it may not work. But I think I can to buy more IOTA dipper than now before Q

Other than commenting on the tax implications, I didn't say it was a bad strategy, just a different strategy. Perhaps my POV as an investor could be confused for having a negative opinion of speculating, but I have no problem with people doing whichever works best for them (or combination of the two)--part of being succesful is knowing who you are and what strategies work best with your personality and skill set.

Yes, agree there are many innovative features will take place in IOTA block chain but for everything we have to wait because good things will always takes time to develop.Already IOTA has secured significant position in the crypto market.Although it has a low price now, I think it has a great potential for the future. I hope we can see more innovative coins like IOTA in the cryptocurrency world.
