Wow, a patched vulnerability created this much sell off? Are people just not reading that its no longer vulnerable? Its bolded in the article. I don't even hold any iOTA and Im now mad that I don't have any free fiat to buy at this price.

Probably because these scientists proclaimed a single IOTA transaction weighting above 10kb in size.
Plain untruth.
But still they claimed to know each and every detail about the Tangle ?!!
And their "attack" never did worked, at all.

Is it safe to send payments to the same wallet address several times? Or do I need to generate new wallet for each new transaction? It generates new wallets when I click "attach to tangle". But if I already have previously generated wallet can I use it for multiple incoming (not outgoing) payments?

Why has IOTA invented a new cryptographic cipher and not implemented a standardised one? Is there any reason? No offense, just want to know.

None of the standardized algos suited IOTA needs.

It wasn't vulnerable at all actually. This is something I'm going to argue with Neha Narula and her team about. Need several days to prepare the response.

No idea what you mean. Not just a troll... A troll lives under a bridge... A bridge can be sold... Opposite of salesman is a customer... Sorry, can't solve your puzzle.

The IOTA price fell 15% following the revelation that the MIT Media Lab’s Digital Currency Initiative (DCI) had discovered “cryptographic vulnerabilities” in IOTA’s hashing function. Although the IOTA developers dispute some aspects of the report and have already issued a patch to address the findings, the DCI post garnered a lot of attention on social media.

I read this article. And you know, as per my mind it is very hateful. Gues such kind of reports has to be more discreet. Its looks like IOTA founder is her ex )))

Well that was lucky! Cheesy

The bug was found by a group of MIT researchers and they disclosed it first to Devs.

One wonders what would have happened if it was a hacker who found this bug...

Perhaps with the next bug (if it is) there is not so much luck Undecided

Nothing would happen. IOTA is protected against such things. The migration was done as a part of a scheduled upgrade because protection mechanisms become useless once they are revealed.

Yes, I agree. I suspect that many holders of larger quantities and ICO participants have sold a part of their stake and that many smaller investors have used the opportunity to buy cheap IOTA. This would make the distribution of IOTA more differentiated and can only be well for the project. I read in a Medium article that the distribution has improved in recent months. The statistics went only to August. I think the trend has strengthened in September.

Good. Weak hands leaving IOTA. This builds a better base for the next jump over time. With so many coins issued at once, it is not so easy for IOTA to rise spectacularly. It will probably grow in smaller waves over longer periods than the average pump coin.
