Today, IOTA has a number of advantages, undeniable advantages, such as the updated concept of the Distributed Tangle registry and zero transaction fees. In this regard, the forecast for the iota cryptocurrency is more than positive.
Well the technology has been around for a while,,, and DAG type crypto is not new, I even took part in Byteball early on and they were the first IMO to show how useful the tech could be,,, but they all still do not have the desired utility levels. Not to mention NANO and others that all were practically free to mine. Tangle is good,,, but needs a lot more time to mature and catch on.
