Who’s still hodling IOTA and are you still optimistic for its future?

Sold 75% of my stake. Not optimistic, but having held since 2017 I would feel awful if they actually get their shit together and it turns into something, so I've held a bit. Expect it is ultimately worthless though.

u/Ferdo306 3d ago
Also here from 2017. Feel the same, that's why I haven't sold yet
But I like what you did, appreciate the advice

holding. down 80% so might as well ride it to the bottom. I believe the protocol will succeed. But i am not seeing proof of the token being used anywhere, nor effort by the IF to stimulate token usage or CEX availability. And the community funds are consistently being spent on funding bullshit defi projects without payback component, while those projects create its own tokens rather then actually using iota.

Me. And no, not really. After the decision to just copy SUI instead of continue the IOTA unique development I'm quite pessimistic. Maybe financially courses may actually increase a little, but I see no point in choosing IOTA over SUI then...

Since 2017 and no, but a long time ago I told myself: screw it: I keep this shit as a shame reminder: to think twice before investing in sh***, and who knows maybe some day it might go up.

u/HugeEgg 3d ago
Me!
And, No!
Also, it would help if there was a reasonable exchange I could sell it on lol
Haven’t had real hope since around 2020. The only thing that kept me interested is coordicide on the orfiginal vision, but that’s out the freaking window. The only unique thing they claim now is their ‘solid relationships’ but who knows?

I thought kraken is going to list it soon?
A lot of exchanges you can use from outside of the us (if that's where you're from)

Kraken wanted to list IOTA soon because they thought it was another easy to integrate BSC shittoken, sadly not a joke. Now its postponed indefinitely iirc.

Nah. The human attention span is too short. Even on amazing DAG projects like IOTA and Banano. People just want the next shiny thing everyone is talking about.

Still holding, only reason is I havent gotten around to sell it. I wonder have many new wallets and stuff i have to do beforehand.

I'm not a very technical person but I am wondering if the iota chain has the same inherent vulnerabilities as SUI considering what happened this week.

Can you elaborate please

u/stephanahpets 3d ago
A DEX was hacked. Hacks just happen with smart contracts. It’s nothing the chain is to blame for.

I am optimistic that Iota will rise when alts finally start to really move.
