No but if you're on slack you can get an idea on how much some of the traders hold.

Yes. All above mentioned are donated by communities efforts.

Do you see your iotas when you login to your wallet? If yes then you don't have to claim.

I have been explained that some people confuse "claim" and "re-claim". (it was my case by the way)

Claim -> was collect.iotatoken.com -> send a small amount of BTC -> your address is in the genesis
If you did that in time, then you did successfully claim.

Re-claim -> The addresses changed at some point and you had to claim the iotas again to a new address. You can still get your iotas if you didn't do this.

In my case, I have successfully claim but I don't know how to re-claim. I have been told to contact David (iotatoken). However I have not still received any response (it is the weekend)

However, if someone can help me to re-claim, that would be good.

I had some issues earlier and was able to get my IOTA to appear again, there was a conversion that you needed to go through to convert your seed in a new client. I will say that they don't make it easy and there were lots of bumps along the way, but I did get my IOTA to show up again.  Get on the IOTA slack and someone will help you eventually, but you have to have a lot, and I mean a lot of patience with IOTA.  That being said, I wouldn't say they've stolen any crypto from anyone.  Oh, also if you purchased IOTA stakes in a token, you need to go through that person that you purchased a token from, (i.e. IOTAB, etc,)

I want everyone to try to contemplate how IOTA would look if the number one priority was to help people who didn't bother to claim in time and do hands on daily tutoring rather than actually create the technology... It is *us* not *you* who has to have an insane amount of patience with people who didn't bother to follow the right procedures in the first 4 months and thus ended up costing us tens of hours of manual work that could've been much better spent on doing productive things.

Can IOTA's that we have in our current wallet be SCAMMED with another foolish statement for example "upgrade your wallet now" (if new wallet were to come) or the money will be sent to the IOTA Foundation. Seeing the IOTA team anything is possible.

Are our IOTAs safe now? Or will there be another scammish attempts to steal our IOTA?

It is a such a disgrace that IOTA is such a scam knowing what a great project it is. I think this is just the top of the iceberg.

I just need a YES or NO. I don't need the dogs come barking around the corner and defending their master. Just a simple YES or NO if my IOTAs in current wallet is safe now forever or not. Can I hold them for several years without being in danger to be stolen?

How are we even discussing this matter? So ridiculous..

Indeed, your whole post is totally ridiculous.


Feels like you guys are just here for some quick bucks and dont even try to spend some of your own time doing some research.
As it seems you didnt even read the ToS of your early stage investment and then start complaining. Although EVERYTHING (like literally 100%) is your own fault.

Big shoutout to the devs and how they handle this whole situation. If it was me I wouldnt give a shit about you missing out clearly stated deadlines.


I should really stop reading this thread, it is unbelievable how some users' stupidity and ignorance is tilting me..

I agree but those who haven't claimed still fall under "distribution stage" so they do need to be attentive and make sure they claim before a certain date. The Iota team is very busy making Iota valuable, so those who are waiting to claim need to be patient.
