I'm looking to sell 375000 IOTA in exchange for 1000 JINN - with escrow.
Smaller amounts is fine with me as well.
If anyone is interested, please get in touch!
Can you explain the relation between JINN and IOTA at this moment? I thought holders of JINN converted them to IOTA. Is that Asset still alive?
Only some individuals cashed out in what was basically a buy-back option of the JINN token for profit stakes. The JINN asset was created to represent the profits from sales of the Jinn hardware and, I think, also will get a cut of related emulator and dev tool profits. For the uninitiated, Jinn technology is based off of ternary math and computational logic (
see here and
here for more details on ternary computer systems and mathematics) which is more efficient than traditional binary-based computation.
The Jinn project is considerably ambitious but Iota is designed to be well suited for the Jinn hardware. It is my speculative hunch that David, CfB and the other members of Triangle (which own the Jinn project) created Iota before releasing Jinn so that there would an established reason for needing a ternary-based computational device that is suited for IoT.
Personally, after much research, I think the concept of a modern, light-weight ternary based computer would be a tremendous breath of fresh air to computing. We've been using the same hardware (only continually scaled down smaller and smaller and further topologically optimized) since the 1940's! Though Jinn will still use traditional electronic logic, it can still offer improvements in processing speed by being a more efficient way of computing data.
Jinn could be an computational step towards quantum computing because it could provide step-up improvements in computing efficiency until we reach the widespread quantum computing age, which is easily 30-50 years off. In fact, I'm not an expert on this but I think ternary based logic is much more suited to transitioning to quantum computing rather than current, modern hardware. In such a case, transitioning from binary to ternary computing makes logical sense.
The biggest hurdle is adoption. Jinn needs a reason to exist and I think the combination of it being an IoT friendly device and working out-of-the-box with Iota means that it has a lot going for it. Research and invest at your own risk. This is certainly a long shot and Jinn vs. it's real competitors (Intel, AMD, ARM, NVidia, etc.) is certainly a David and Goliath story. Regardless, I'm pulling for these guys because I love innovation and there's no doubt that Jinn is about as innovative and ambitious as you can get.
