IOTA an insane cult driven by fear of losing money. No one uses the software. They use social media to attract more bag holders.

I read the "rebuff". He looked up the wrong company named "Helix"... I'm not affiliated with the entity he mentions.

Thanks for the clarification. I posted your review on r/cryptocurrency and was quickly down-voted to oblivion.

If I were a conspiracy theorist, I'd say your statement about shitcoins using social media to attract bag holders sounds about right.

I've noticed the mods on r/ripple are even worse. They ruthlessly delete any post that raises legitimate concerns about XRP and it's so called touted use of providing liquidity for cross border payment, that not a single bank appears to be using in a production environment.

If this was IOTA in its final form the value of IOTA should be 0. It's great that this is not the case!

And yes, statements like "IOTA an insane cult driven by fear of losing money" are FUD, regardless of how much sense your argument may or may not make.
