Maybe someone knows when IOTA will be added in new exchanges.
Seems it's necessary to get in other exchanges.

Nobody knows. The developers ignore this question.

As they should. Totally out side of the scope of we should hope they are worrying about.

If one can not confer upon another a right which he does not himself first possess, by what means does the state derive the right to engage in behaviors from which the public is prohibited?

I would like to buy IOTA. I registered for an account at www.bitfinex.com but it won't let me deposit funds in USD and no other currencies seem to be available.

How can I purchase IOTA if I can't deposit funds?

You can go to an exchange where you can trade your USD to BTC (or ETH). Afterwards you send your BTC(/ETH) to Bitfinex. If you care about transaction costs you can buy LTC, send it to Bitfinex, trade it to BTC/ETH, and then buy your IOTA.

Bitfinex only handles crypto as far as I know. You can use coinbase or something if you have fiat, buy litecoin and send it over to bitfinex. They are banning US customers though so a VPN might be needed

This has been most probably discussed before. Please point me out to any official statements on the topic, I couldn't find a coherent explanation in my limited time digging around.

If I understand correctly, Iota defends against sybil attacks through having the clients attach PoW to transactions. Yet the PoW is by its nature computationally expensive, thus energy-draining and time-consuming. It looks to be a less-than-ideal fit for embedded devices, where the energy availability/consumption and the computational power are scarce, sometimes critical resources.

Moreover, I assume that a GPU or an ASIC (comparable in scale with the current top-level bitcoin mining chips) would exceed the total PoW capability of tens of thousands of embedded devices (or maybe more). So thinking about this disparity in resource availability (PoW capability) between different classes of devices, isn't it paving the road towards cost-effective sybil attacks?

How does Iota address these challenges?

The amount of fud from BTC hardliners has been out of this world lately. They must feel really threatened otherwise I cannot explain this strange behavior. There are so many scams out there that nobody talks about and in all of this these people decided to pick on iota. Shameful.

IOTA... UPBSD... what a tease.
My guess, U=Uber, P=Porsch, B=Bosch, S=?, D was mispronounced..it's actually a T for Tesla. Someone suggested on Slack it's Daimler.
Anyway, just a stupid post. But with all the FUD going around it's time to put things into perspective and remember that The Way To Heaven Is Through Hell

Yeah, but selling and consuming are two different things.
And consuming marijuana and heroin too. The first fud about a drug consummation of a dev-member was about marijuana.
After that, heroin and then he would selling heroin.

I have nothing against drug consuming. But that was absurd.
