IOTA is a tangle coin that ICO’d on Bitcointalk in JINN, another coin. It promises to bring cryptocurrency to the Internet-of-Things. But did anyone actually try using IOTA? Andreas finds out.
Today I’m reviewing IOTA, a token that uses a tangle instead of a blockchain. IOTA is supposed to be used on small devices in the Internet of Things. I’ll show you how to buy, store, send, and sell.
TL;DR: IOTA cannot be used for Internet-of-Things devices. Or anything.
I last tried IOTA in November 2016. Back then I was researching IOTA for my then coworker Kevin.
Kevin runs a fund these days. Like everyone else.
I remember having to run pre-compiled binaries and being unable to send a transaction. Today I’m giving IOTA another chance.
IOTA was first announced in a traditional Bitcointalk announcement (ANN) thread in October 2015 with a white paper titled “The tangle”. The original coin was named DagCoin.
Instead of the global blockchain, there is a DAG (= directed acyclic graph) that we call tangle.
Graph is math speak for “circles connected with lines”. Acyclic means that there are no loops. The Bitcoin blockchain is a DAG. A transaction does not directly or indirectly refer back to itself.
As of writing this IOTA has a market cap of $6.6 billion dollars.

Goals for the Review
Compile and run IOTA from source-code on a server
Sync the IOTA blockchain (tangle)
Buy IOTA and send it to my wallet
Send the IOTA to a mobile wallet
The IOTA Landing Page
Everything I know about the Internet-of-Things (IoT) I learned from Internet of Shit on Twitter.
The IOTA landing page promises that IOTA will make every technological resource a potential service. I’m not sure what that means.
Compiling and running IOTA
