Topic: IOTA - page 524. (Read 1473233 times)

Ok, well, unless the date comes from me, it's not official.

It was no random assumption I have had no time to follow all the communication on the various IOTA thread and someone posted 1st June will be the official start. So I guessed it will be the release date 

Hehe, but why would you randomly assume a date?

Will there be a caution 2-3 days before IOTA will finally be released? I actually thought 1st June will be the official release date so I prepared myself to stay away from appointments and obligations on 31st May, 1st June and 2nd June to totally focus on the IOTA release. It was completely in vain However, I would like to be prepared for next release date again.

Will be a GUI wallet with start mainnet?

Still testing.

Launch this month.

Haven't kept up with IOTA (life, etc) so has it launched yet? whats the status of the project?

Thanks!

You can find details of the crowdsale here: https://www.tangle.ninja/iota/crowdsale

1337 is the number inclusive of the bonuses offered during the ICO.

What is the official amount of bitcoins raised in the ICO from bitcoin and JINN? Is it 1337 btc as stated above by NxtBlg?

Depends on amount of Iota, but mine took a couple hours.

Another question, with no need for any "interpret":

This snippet comes from the original post:

It touches upon something that I've been wondering about. Unlike in crypto space, getting your hands on live price data for conventional assets requires forking out money. Case in point: this service offers a gold-price API for $30 per month that's updated once a minute.

Believe it or not, this is pretty cheap. The NYSE offers live transmissible stock-market data for both NYSE & NASDAQ stocks at a price of $15,000 per month!

With these...monetization strategies attached to conventional financial data, getting a reasonably accurate feed takes on a different dimension. From what I've read, the least insecure (from an engineering standpoint) is a DPoS system. But therein lies the block: for a full DPoS 101-delegate system to feed in live gold prices would require a collective spend of more than $3,000 per month (one independent API account for each delegate.) This could be lowered by finding a cheaper feed, as well as by other means, but it's still costly.

On the other hand, me going it alone by shooting the gold data directly into (say) the Nxt blockchain via Arbitrary Message would oblige anyone who uses that data to trust me - and would require me to make sure I have a bit of redundancy to hedge against VPS failure (for one.)

Is there any way for IoTA to help with this dilemma? If so, it could be used as a feeder for smart contracts & bridge the gap between old data and new.

Thanks.

Okay, thank you.

after i claimed how long does it normally take for the balance to show up?

Yes. We got the funds to develop the software of IOTA and Jinn.

There's no need to interpret the question; I was just asking if you had received the money.

I'm not sure how to interpret this question? Did the money we raised go to us in the way we said it would? Yes. Plus of course VAT taxes, since we operate in the real world and don't try to evade taxes or other schemes.

A factual question: I remember reading that IoTA got 1,337BTC's worth of buys, of which ~850 was in Bitcoin itself. So here's the question: did those funds get released to the devs?

Thanks.

We do use http://chat.iotatoken.com It's Rocket.Chat, which is open source 'Slack' essentially

Just to give some context: they are not related per se. IOTA was initiated first, then Sergio Demian Lerner published his blogpost about DAGCoin which was similar and he's been supportive of IOTA since then. There'll be more news around Sergio's "involvement" later.
