Iota needs a massive big pump so people start adopting it ..... no one was talking about ether when it was trading for cents ... but people love it at 300$

Right but ETH wouldn't have pumped to $300 if bitcoin hadn't seen major gains. I think IOTA is going to correct itself and get back to original price as soon as BTC comes back to where it was. If it rises before it, more good news for holders.

Although IOTA price has fallen down over 11% in last week. However, IOTA is still a potential coin for invesment in long time. You should buy it now to get huge profit when it recovers

Any news of a forthcoming pump?

This is a good article about some stuff that is happening: https://hackernoon.com/iota-real-world-use-cases-are-coming-ab1d8240cf09
Q1 should actually be really big for Iota. Also there should be the release of 'Q' in Q1 as far as I remember.
Also additional exchanges + new wallet. Doesn't look too bad so far, let's see when it all starts.

How can IOTA invest in direct investment as a beautiful project. I think they have a conversation with BOSCH. I read so from Twitter. That's good news, too.

I really believe on IOTA and I am holding some of it. I know this coin will be huge because of their great team and technology. I'm holding it for 2 - 3 years then after that I will sell some a little bit then the rest after 5 years.

IOTA offers a viable project in life. Perhaps we may regret that we have not bought it from the current prices in the future. Now, I think it is necessary to make purchases gradually from collective purchasing.

Ledger support seems close: https://codebuffet.co/2018/02/11/iota-on-the-ledger-nano-s-development-report-4/


Given the recent uptick in FUD, this article seems timely: https://medium.com/@ryandcrow/fighting-fallacies-for-better-judgement-a-cryptocurrency-perspective-bac14c9b54ce

This is a reasonable critcism of scaling methods available ATM: https://medium.com/@yotamyachmoorgafni/state-of-cryptocurrencies-scaling-173cebb600dd


Next week will be Bosch's BCX18 Hackathon and it looks like IOTA will have a demo for autonomous automobiles: https://twitter.com/SarahNizze/status/962231566666731520

I do not think they're going to leave a market with so much volume. They will protect the market. As a result, capital gains are earned here. I expect positive news.

What is max price you guys think it could hit?

1000s, but most coins have a max of trillions of marketcap based on the market they are attempting to corner. What I try to figure out is the potential market (digital cash, M2M, File Storage, ETC), who are the competitors, what percentage of the market will the coin likely capture and what are the chances of gaining that market. Once you establish those, you can monitor the coin and look for any competition that may arise or a new achievement that may better the chances of a competitor (though you can hedge to mitigate risk).

So as an example:

Monero:

Potential market: digital cash, black markets, tax evasion, secure business and military spending--these are growing digital sectors that have real world use in the trillions. Assuming they continue to turn digital and Monero can grab a healthy percentage of that growth, Monero's ceiling is in the trillions.

Competitors: Bitcoin, Zcash, etc.*

% of market: based on the need of consumers to have max privacy and the absence of major competitor, this likely is >80% once Bitcoin's privacy failures are acknowledged by the public and consumers move to more robust solutions.

Chances: coinflip, based on new solutions such as zstarks, mimble wimble, SPECTRE (not spectrecoin) Monero has to continually maintain its status as best-in-class privacy--this includes researching solutions that may create better privacy and more efficiency. While the lead Bitcoin has had in this market has dwindled and Monero looks like the succesor, there are more robust privacy solutions that could overtake Monero if they do not upgrade to match the competition(though all indications seem, research, planned forks, ect, seem to indicate that upgrades will be a permanent part of Monero's future). The Black Swan is Bitcoin in this competition as it could refocus on fungibility and use network effects to retake its position.

*There are many coins that have claimed to better than, or equal to, Monero as far as privacy is concerned, but for the most part, these coins have yet to go through any rigerous examination by cryptographers or have any real use on dark markets or any privacy intensive usecase.

That's great that everyone can enjoy their next IOTA moons. When it comes time to cash out they'll notice all their coins missing however. Since as great as the hype and concept-of-technology behind the tangle is, the implementation and security of IOTA is beyond horrid.

The wallet is secure--using a seed generator from an unknown is like asking a random guy on the streets to make a house key or create a safe password, just because you are ignorant of the risk, doesn't make you any less culpable for doing foolish things.

I like the project IOTA. So futuristic and stuff.

Then i try to use the fucking wallet and it is pain as hell.

They need to fix this shit asap - a top10 coin can't be using this shit.

The wallet isn't exactly user friendly, but it works fine and is secure. The Trinity wallet should address usability concerns and is in testing atm--there are a couple more wallets coming out also within the next couple months. I've never had any issues myself, but can see people's frustration when they are used to BTC, Bitcoin clone and Eth (erc20) wallets that have had years to mature.

I do not make a huge investment in IOTA. I seriously think about investing some. I am also a thrilling project IOTA. I think it might be $ 10 in the future.
