Only in crypto can you do EVERYTHING right and give people a fucking 20x return on their purchase, without allocating anything for yourself, and still face accusations and insinuations of wrongdoing. It's pathetic that people who think like this even exist.


Can you explain how we got a 20x return on the purchase of software? 20x only makes sense when you're talking about the IOTA token, but you insist you only sold software. Your previous statements are contradictory.

If you sold software nobody received 20x, and if you fork and IOTA token MK1 becomes worthless then all the people who trusted you make 0x.

Reputation is everything, and no amount of word games and semantics can spin the fact that most IOTA supporters believe you are being tricky and deceitful.


edit: are donations for foundation needed to bypass securities issuing laws? why not 5% premine? The 'bystander effect' will be exactly the same with donations as with premine. bystanders don't become active just because they donated




Based on your statements I estimate that your IQ is not even measurable so I won't even bother answering as it's self-evident that you're at troll.

OK, let readers decide if my post deserved a serious response . I owe them nothing, but YOU do as the so called leader of this project. Many people are upset, not just me.

Your inability or unwillingness to answer is telling. You look to be out of your depth now.

@CfB, can you explain how someone can be 20x on a purchase of software?

edit:when someone in business resorts to insults and bad language you know they're struggling

This is not a business issue at all, the question pertains to an unrelated potential entity, so your 'question' is only regarding a trolling issue.

Need help, after starting IRI (latest version) throws error: this address already in use. What should I do?

It will be quicker for you to get answers if you ask your wallet related questions on the chat.iotatoken.com

thanks, need help but not urgently. I'll wait for answers there.

I am a small IOTA holder and I have no problem with contributing my 5% to the Foundation. If there is a way to do this safely and hassle free.. But my contribution may become pointless if other people decide not to contribute. This uncertainty is chilling.   

I address this point in my post re: iota foundation donations. Of course everyone won't participate, so donating over 5% is necessary for those that want a foundation. Uncertainty is a part of life Smiley

@jokumat et alii, excuse me. Let me give my humble opinion:

It seems to me, the community of IOTA holders have thoroughly discussed this topic. It has been a harsh, honest and open talk involving all us who were interested in participating: Many of us have made unjust accusations, and at the same time many of us have been unjustly attacked. Many of us have made fair complaints, and at the same time many of us have been fairly denounced.

It has been necessary. A natural part of IOTA's growing pains. But it needed an end, and a solution. That solution was demanded and, recently, honestly reached.

Now that those dissatisfactions were sufficiently cleared and solutioned. This talk must be put in the past. Insisting on it is remaining stuck. And the project must not remain stuck.  It must progress.

To keep coming back onto those topics you guys suddenly bring again is dishonest. Especially if you are not IOTA holders.

But even if you are IOTA holders: because there has been plenty opportunity to make your voice and opinions known. All participants' opinions were considered right here at this very forum. Where were you? (Anyway. If you are a holder, and you are not satisfied, simply do not pay the 5%. Just wait for the results, good or bad, or quit if you prefer)

Let's go forward, please. Because insisting in bringing back already solved issues is disturbing the progress of the project. Disturbing is, indeed, trolling.

Thank you for taking this point of view of mine in consideration.

But without the Foundation you and CfB refuse to work on this project any more. So I think I described the situation well. You call the required contribution 100% voluntary. Ok.

Why should we continue work on software that is already done? Once the software is done everyone that bought it can use it for whatever intention they bought it for, just like all other purchases in the history of commerce. But we also happen to run an IoT hardware start-up for distributed computing, which is why IOTA even exist, we saw a problem and since no one was working on a solution, we solved it technically. But for the technology to work for what *we* need it for we also need it to be established as an IoT standard, thus we will continue our efforts to achieve this, while everyone else is free to pursue their own visions with the IOTA software they purchased and we delivered.

It's so mindblowingly simply that it hurts my fucking brain that any homo sapien could ever even question it. We didn't allocate a single iota for ourselves precisely so that we are free to do whatever we want after fulfilling our end of the deal.

Quote

I remember that all the unclaimed iotas were going to Foundation as well. How much is it? Is it on top of those 5 % or already included?

Will you release a full gui before the creation of the Foundation?  

Then you got some sort of amnesia. ~50% of the unclaimed was to go to the foundation - which it has - the rest to Jinn and other tasks in IOTA like new website and developing 2 projects for IOTA that we got under the hood. And yes, full GUI will come before creation of Foundation, same as website, this is extra work we have done for the community.

Only in crypto can you do EVERYTHING right and give people a fucking 20x return on their purchase, without allocating anything for yourself, and still face accusations and insinuations of wrongdoing. It's pathetic that people who think like this even exist.

I was just stating the facts and asking questions. No accusations were made.

So basically the devs want additional 5% of all iotas (minimum) to pay for their work in several future months. They collected over half a mil dollars but they spent them without even releasing a full gui. If they don't receive the required amount of iotas, they will leave and start the same thing with other people, more generous ones. Right?


In the event that you're not another troll sockpuppet:

No, the devs are not asking for this. IOTA Foundation is a separate effort and got nothing to do with the development of IOTA nor the company that sold the IOTA software. It's entirely different entities. The funds have been used and is being used for 3 things: IOTA development, Jinn development and paying VAT/TAX on sale, exactly as we promised from day 1.

If 5% of iota is raised for the foundation and the foundation gets established then the resources will go to adoption of IOTA tech. Simple as that, no controversy whatsoever and is 100% voluntary.

in addition to this recognition as a true supporter of the project those who donate will be given a certain donation-amount-proportionate privilege in upcoming projects that involve the initiators of IOTA. ( No more details on this at the moment )

Please make the donation verification process strictly address-based...   I despise sockpuppet accounts!   Smiley

We will ensure the authenticity, of course.

However this is NOT to become any focal point, we will not answer any questions pertaining to that matter at all, it's just an extra incentive. Right now the IOTA Foundation's mission statement should be sufficient incentive.

No, they ask funds to push IOTA onto DEVICES.

Quote from: iotatoken
The role of the IOTA Foundation will be to actively engage companies and projects that can benefit from the technology and business opportunities that IOTA offers them. This include in-person meetings and presentations, going to IoT/fintech/crypto conferences and actively raising awareness through media.

The Foundation will consist of dedicated members with experience and expertise. Most importantly these members is required to have a significant amount of time dedicated to the work involved.

As this will be a half-time/full-time job at times the members will be compensated for travel and accommodation as well as a wage. In addition to this expenses will include potential fees to conferences and marketing material.

IOTA is not for human, it's for machines.
