Topic: IOTX what do you think ? (Read 159 times)
I am much more interested in the part were you said the project is promising, could you please explain why did you say so. Just attaining some rank in coinmarketcap cannot be a valid reason to consider a coin as promising. Can you at least tell us about the project and the features that makes it unique since you said it's promising.
Otherwise, better still you can just give me the link to the ANN thread of the project so that I can check it out to see other users review about this promising project.

Looks like price is moving a bit now...
if you shortly introduce IOTEX, that would be much better for the community.
Powered by a Privacy-Centric Blockchain
Despite its rapid evolution, IoT is still far from reaching mass adoption and lacks “killer applications” that would draw new users to the ecosystem due to issues such as low scalability, high operating cost, privacy concerns and lack of functional values.
IoTeX is tackling this problem by introducing token economy into IoT spaces as we strongly believe that crypto incentives as well as the community effort are the two key forces to propel innovations in IoT space. In short, IoTeX is the next generation IoT-oriented blockchain platform with strong scalability, privacy, isolatability and developability for incubating new IoT applications and ecosystems.
IoTeX's mission
IoTeX is the auto-scalable and privacy-centric blockchain infrastructure for the Internet of Things (IoT). IoTeX’s global team is comprised of Ph.Ds in Cryptography, Distributed Systems, and Machine Learning, top-tier engineers, and experienced ecosystem builders. IoTeX is developing several in-house innovations to push the frontier of blockchain 3.0, including a blockchain-in-blockchain architecture for heterogeneous computing, fast and robust Roll-DPoS consensus scheme, and lightweight privacy-preserving techniques. IoTeX is bringing autonomous device coordination to the masses by “connecting the physical world, block by block.”
What problems can IoTeX solve?
The Internet of Things has rapidly evolved over the past few years, but lacks real world “killer applications”. McKinsey & Company predicts that IoT could generate up to $11.1 trillion per year in economic value by 2025. Despite the massive potential of IoT, there are roadblocks ahead, such as lack of scalability, privacy concerns, and lack of functional values. IoTeX is solving these problems by creating a flexible, privacy-centric blockchain infrastructure tailor fit for IOT, leveraging a blockchain-in-blockchain architecture with cryptoeconomic incentives. By combining token incentives with community efforts, we can crowdsource industry and community contributions to address various technical challenges related to IoT architecture, infrastructure, and implementation.
What are IoTeX’s competitive advantages?
At a high level, IoTeX's competitive advantage stems from four main innovations: 1. Blockchain-in-blockchain architecture which ensures privacy and prevents IoT information leakage; 2. Built-in privacy based on lightweight cryptography; 3. Real-time consensus with instant finality, which improves the throughput of the network, reduces transactional costs, and enables efficient cross-chain communication; and 4. Subchain-as-a-service (SAAS) to facilitate fast prototyping and production of new IoT applications and ecosystems.
Does IoTeX use DAG?
No, IoTeX does not use directed acyclic graphs (DAG). IoTeX believes that DAG is an interesting technology, but is still in its infancy.
What is an IoTeX token? How does it work?
One of the key factors affecting monetary value is inflation. We plan to address inflation by fixing the total supply of IoTeX tokens from the start at 10 billion tokens. Prior to the launch of the IoTeX Mainnet, the circulated IoTeX token will be an ERC20 token (ticker: IOTX), which is not mineable. Immediately after the launch of the IoTeX Mainnet, we will work with exchanges to help IOTX token holders redeem their ERC20-based IoTeX tokens for the native IoTeX tokens (ticker: IOX). The native token will be mineable, similar to PoS, for 50 years. Rewards of the mining will reduce over time based on a linear gradient reduction model.
What is the development plan?
We have released our first Testnet preview, StoneVan, on April 20, 2018. Our next code release will be Testnet Alpha in late June, which will include the first implementation of our full Roll-DPoS consensus scheme with voting support. IoTeX’s long-term plan focuses on building IoTeX subchains, software development toolkits (SDK), and developer tools, as well as collaborating with IoT companies / developers to build DApps utilizing the IoTeX platform. Please see the latest full version roadmap on the home page at https://iotex.io
Can other projects launch their own token on IoTeX blockchains?
Yes. IoTeX's mission is to allow developers to easily create their own robust and useful subchains for their own projects and ecosystems. Subchains are meant to be flexible, meaning they can choose to use their own tokens or the IoTeX token, can be programmed in a variety of programming languages, and can be made permissioned (private) or permissionless (public). If you have ideas or plans with regards to your own subchain or token, please reach out to us - we would love to help you design your own token economy!

Simply, we can't know about all coins listed on coinmarketcap, I could give you an advice if you shortly introduce IOTEX, that would be much better for the community.
Just launched, and already looks very promising, and still very affordable at $ 0.0083
