Lots of bullshit.

Just a few points:

A) Iota is a legit currency trying to do something new in the crypto space.

B) The listing Bitcoin gold did not 'create' 2 bn usd - if you tried to liquidate even a fraction of that, you would drive the price to 0. There was significant demand from trader and speculators for its listing (not that I agree with it, but anyway).

C) Saying that a company that generates 30 mil. usd in revenues each month is worthless is really laughable.

D) This author has had a bone to pick with bitfinex for a long time. I consider him a shill with an agenda, and it is surprising that he is given so much space (even on HN) to spew his BS.
