So I had to look up what HODL means. "Hold On for Dear Life" for those not as "on the line" as me. I like IOTA, I have watched it for a while and bought it today using Bitcoin when that went over $4000 for a while. No great fortune just 0.025 Bitcoins worth but that bought just over 100 IOTA. I like the concept of IOTA to create something that is fundamentaly low cost and energy efficient from the start. The tangled/branched concept is unique it will be seen if it stands up to security. Since it is focuseed on the internet of things it is well placed to follow a trend.
All we need now is for someone to create a 3D video virtual reality sharing platform using blockchain or tangled!
I am long IOTA.
BTW I found a good podcast interview of one of the founders of IOTA. It was posted recently by @louisthomas and the link is:
