Funny how Peter Todd is spreading false news, without even fact checking articles. What are you even up to these days dude, full time Twitter troll?
Great article from someone who actually tried to use IOTA tl;dr: Even ignoring the ridiculous, amateur hour, security flaws, the network is a broken unusable mess. http://codesuppository.blogspot.ca/2017/12/iota-tangled-mess.html …

"Sigh, I tried to help him figure out what happened, he didn't even know how to attach an address. Turns out he tried to spend the same input twice, then began to shout around that the network was broken. Finally he claimed to have "lost" money because he wanted to sell at 5$"

Nothing to see here except for concern trolls like Peter Todd.

Your company should sue them for market manipulation.

Spoke like a true believer in decentralisation :D
-
:) Well, in my opinion decentralisation in cryptos is just a wet dream: miners act like (central)banks and fees are nothing else than a regessive tax.
-
Yes, they print money form nothing and lend them, ofc. How did I not see that.

From the article: "The IOTA source code is written in JAVA instead of C++ like most professional cryptocurrencies are." If you call that "great article" then your standards are pretty low, Peter.
-
Professional cryptocurrency? What is that anyway?
#onlyiota -
#Bitcoin clones perhaps, that explains why they are "written" in C++...

IOTA is a scam. It’s as simple as that. Making broad claims like ”this is the future” is an ocean of red flags.
-
Bitcoin enthusiasts need to be self-aware enough to hear to themselves when they sound like establishment voices dismissing something new and different. If broad claims were the upper limit of
#iota, you'd have some grounds to say so. I'm afraid it's quite clear that you don't.

@jratcliff is repeating the same thing over and over and amplifying it for weeks now... It's sad because he's spreading false info. e.g. "NEVER re-use an address. NEVER. NO exceptions." It's coming from a bad doc, it's only valid if you start spending from the given address. -
He updated his post to tell that he actually fixed his problem. Why instead of getting the right help, he just tweeted and blogged about how broken
#IOTA was, for days? **Nobody** ever lost any IOTA, except for people not securing their seed. So yeah@petertoddbtc, I call#FUD. -
Many people are still reporting that they cannot recover their funds still
-
Yes, and once they get the right help/instructions, it's all fine. This guy unstuck 38/40 user https://www.reddit.com/r/Iota/comments/7jpz7e/your_transaction_is_stuck_ill_confirm_it_for_you/ … I agree that the wallet sucks, it's as if we were using Bitcoin pre-HD, with a network without peer-discovery, but it's not fundamentally broken, it's a WIP.
-
WIP as: - A better wallet is getting released soon: https://medium.com/iota-ucl/iota-wallet-refresh-onboarding-2f5ccd5e467a … - Peer discovery is already in private beta: https://medium.com/deviota/carriota-nelson-automatic-peer-discovery-for-iota-bdca9b8b8750 … As an engineer you should see past UX problems and only call out fundamental flaws. That's my point.

It's top 10 market cap, must be legit /s.
-
That's another problem " The top market cap list" is not a real representation of what coins have the highest use and utility.. With scam coins like
#BCASH a small group of people own most of the coins, so its easy for them to manipulate volume, price, and get a bogus market cap -
