hey guys,

i'm new to the forum and iota is one of the coins i'm most excited about

what really sold me on iota is this interview with one of the founders - https://soundcloud.com/arthurfalls/ether-review-69-iota-the-post-blockchain-era

he seems like a solid guy and explains the tech quite well.

i'm surprised that upon searching for posts on iota in this forum, there are many posts from 1 to 2 years ago of people thinking iota is a scam and being very frustrated. can someone explain to me why?
