Bitcoin/Ethereum have PoW, which cant be easily reproduced, but Iota has no such thing, it can easily be cloned, and tokens distributed at will. Bitcoins are generated, so cannot be distributed without investing alot of time or hardware up front.

Clone bitcoin and set a fixed mining difficulty to 1 and the premine them all. I can distribute all of them at will as well.

Besides, IOTA does use PoW. Just no block reward.

"and then premine them all", are you daft?

That is how most alt-coins work, its just that "premine them all", or at least 16million would take you 9 years or more.

Please read the highlighted text again.

What you have made is not a bitcoin clone. A shit altcoin instead.

ALSO, IOTA is reddit.com/r/bitcoin full of censorship and groupthink, it wont succeed because of this close-minded, authoritarian approach.
