Now, the next question is: How on Earth can you recover the stolen tokens from the thief? A hard fork? I believe its the only solution but a solution that damages a crypto's reputation.

Why a hard fork. If my IOTAs were be stolen because I used a website for seed creation, what I did aswell, without changing some characters, because we all know, you can not trust anyone in the internet, then this is your personal mistake. There was no hard fork because GOX stole Bitcoins from their costumer. It is your personal risk everyday.
The best solution would be that the person, who have been stolen, can authorize that the IOTAs belongs to him to get the IOTAs back. Otherwise the IOTAs should be spread via an auction like they did with other crypto currencies.

Did you read my post before you posted this? There was no single word about a hard fork.

Did Iota swap at main net ?

Did you even read the article or only the title? There is no word about a hard fork or something similar. There will be no hard fork. The thief was found and arrested and probably the police have secured the private keys where the stolen IOTA are stored. Dominick Schiener was stating that IOTA team helped police to track and monitor the stolen IOTA on the tangle.

Untangled Episode #4: Indoor Mapping & Localisation - https://blog.iota.org/untangled-episode-4-indoor-mapping-localisation-832a57432690

"In the fourth episode of Untangled we are exploring the realm of indoor mapping and localisation. Mapping and localisation has reached incredible levels of accuracy over the years, but indoor mapping is lacking far behind.

To find out why that is and how it can be improved through the use of distributed ledger technologies, we are talking to Georgios Pipelidis, co-founder of NavIndo, a Munich-based start-up dedicated to indoor mapping and localisation."

Europol, German, and British authorities say they’ve arrested a British man who stole more than $10 million worth of IOTA.

"The investigation began in early 2018 when the Hessen State Police received several reports from citizens of money been stolen from their cryptocurrency wallets. Further investigations revealed the existence of fraud from the website Iotaseed.io, targeting the users of the IOTA cryptocurrency. IOTA wallets are protected by an 81 digit seed, which can be generated using seed-generators found online, such as on the official IOTA website. Among the sites promoted online was a malicious seed-generator running on iotaseed.io. Several victims created the seed on this website in good faith, however the seeds were stored in the background by the service provider. Later the criminal used these to gain access to the victims’ wallets and transferred their money to other wallets created with fake IDs."

Hi All,

I have been away for nearly a year. I had a version of IOTA wallet on my laptop. My laptop broke. I have a new laptop. I'm back now and I see there's some new wallet AND ANOTHER SNAPSHOT AGAIN!   Roll Eyes I have an existing wallet with 1000 euros worth of IOTA on it. How do I transfer my money from the old wallet to the new wallet please  Smiley

Download wallet from https://trinity.iota.org and import your seed. Your balance should show up. The wallet is much more user friendly and works much smoother than the old one you know.

Hi thanks for trying to help, unfortunately my seed isn't 81 characters, it is 70 something characters long....which worked fine on the old wallet but this new one won't let me enter it, it just keeps saying my seed is too short.  Roll Eyes

Yes, many had this issue. Just fill out the missing characters with 9s. Meaning, input your 70 character seed and add eleven 9 characters Wink

Sir, thank you. Thank you so much.  Cheesy Grin Grin Grin

Overall updates are very positive and IOTA time to time get mentions as one of the high potential project to be here. Tangle has been brought back into light once again. MIOTA is available at discount rates and next waves will be to give good ROI to those missed somehow in ICO. If you go for big projects with big support you can be sure in spite of dips that price will not only recover but also will have grow gradually.

Reasons why IOTA will continue his path above.

1. IOTA channel is coming up with amazing updates daily.
2. 1700% At HIGH
3. 1d, 12h, 6h, 4h all diverging bullish
4. IOTA chart can only go up from here.
5. IOTA enabled smart solutions and business models
6. Twitter evangelist are hyping up this coin
7. Severely undervalued!
8. Fundamentals are sick!
9.  Team is working hard on coding new integrations.
10. Bitcoin going to the moon tommorrow!


You have made 5 posts in this forum and 3 of these are of analysis and financial advice.
Are you a trader? an analyst? a consultant or what?
Needless to analyze a currency graphically saying that it is underestimated and that the chart can only go up: you understand that this is absurd!

Iota has one of the best foundations out there and it has excellent fundamentals, but as long as Bitcoin does not start climbing again, ALL of the other coins will suffer and follow!

This is great news! Using iota tangle to track shipments, the European community sees great advantages in this, thereby showing that iota is worthy of respect!

Dude, thafk man? Of course it was about the trinity wallet. The light wallet was broken, everyone agrees with this... I am trying to recover my funds with trinity wallet. Although i have everything to prove the authenticity and that i am the owner of about 1.2 Gi (Bitfinex history, bitfinex Withdraw, Iota 1st seed with transitions, you name it) and the second seed wich i used few times, and i guess that's why it does not have the address attached on the tangle, it has zero balance and no history... I know i am not the only one with this kind of issue cuz i made the mistake to recomand this project. The fact that no one from the IOTA Fundation tries to resolve this known issues sais alot about the project integrity. I am starting to think it was a mistake not to sell when it was 5bucks and believing this is a long term project...

The problem you refer to is about the snapshots. It was communicated all time clearly that there was a snapshot and you need to recover your IOTA just by open the new wallet version and create some addresses (remember, only for the old IOTA wallet, not the new trinity wallet). If you've followed all the steps you would have not any problems with your IOTA. I have been involved since the ICO of IOTA and I still have access to all the IOTA.

Thank you! In trinity wallet it seems that the seed in discussion has only one address, probably generated now, for receiving, thats why it has zero balance. Why is that?!? In thetangle.org it shows that the transaction is confirmed. So... is there any way i can reattach an address to its seed?
