Rebstock also remarks that the current setup of IOTA requires every transaction approval to go through the network’s coordinator – an implementation that many have argued ultimately renders the Tangle a centralized system .

While the IOTA team has conceded this is currently the case, it has promised to get rid of the coordinator in the future. However, the company has yet to lay out its plan for phasing out the coordinator.

Meanwhile, the cryptocurrency startup has remained focused on raising awareness of its technology and expanding its network of collaborators.

The company recently announced its Ecosystem platform which aims to offer developers, startups, and hobbyists with a powerful set of tools to build for IOTA. In addition to this, IOTA signed a memorandum of understanding with Taipei to make the city smarter and secured a substantiative investment from Robert Bosch Venture Capital.

These developments follow the launch of the IOTAData Marketplacein collaboration with high-profile brands like Accenture, Fujitsu, and Bosch. The announcement attracted fair amount of controversy when it later became clear that Microsoft – which was purportedly in “partnership” with IOTA – is not an official partner , but merely a technology provider.

IOTA later argued the miscommunication came about as a result of an inaccurate statement (provided by Microsoft) in its Data Marketplace announcement.

The vulnerability marks another time IOTA has received criticism over the design of its network architecture. The company previously came under scrutiny for “ rolling its own ” hash function – a cardinal offence in the world of cryptography.
