IOTA Founder Exits
In an unsurprising public announcement today, the IOTA Foundation released a statement detailing their unanimous decision to part ways with eccentric founder David Sønstebø. This second case leaves IOTA with only two of the original four founding members left on its project.
IOTA’s Project
IOTA is a technology built upon the principle of ‘Internet of Things’ where all devices are connected on a distributed network. Its concept proposes a similar model to blockchain’s standard distributed ledger technology, but with additional advantages of removing mining energy waste and lower transactional costs.Sønstebø was one of four co-founders of the IOTA ledger back in 2015. Sergey Ivancheglo departed the project this time last year (Nov ’19), citing visionary differences as the reason for his exit. Earlier this year, he slandered Sønstebø’s practises, calling for his immediately resignation on Twitter, to the dismay of many IOTA advocates:
IOTA’s Foundation was founded in 2018 for research and development purposes. Today, the foundations 120-members laterally agreed that Sønstebø departure would best serve the interests of the project and its vision for the future. In respect of privacy, they withheld all details about the specific issues leading to today’s decision, but it is widely agreed that creative differences were the case.
“There were several instances where David's actions were not aligned with what the Foundation stands for and who we aspire to be.”
“The Foundation is willing to make difficult decisions to protect the interests of our community.”
The Foundation was prompt in reassuring its community that this decision will not impact the projects metamorphosis into its Chrysalis version.
Price Impact?
The announcement had no immediate impact of the price of IOTA (MIOTA), which reported a 5% fall in value over the past 24-hours, perfectly aligned with the market average.It is currently ranked 32nd on CoinMarketCap with a price of $0.278 and market capitalisation of $771 million.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I trust Cryptonary's calls?
Yes. We've consistently identified winners across multiple cycles. Bitcoin under $1,000, Ethereum under $70, Solana under $10, WIF from $0.003 to $5, PopCat from $0.004 to $2, SPX blasting past $1.70, and our latest pick has already 200X'd since June 2025. Everything is timestamped and public record.
Do I need to be an experienced trader or investor to benefit?
No. When we founded Cryptonary in 2017 the market was new to everyone. We intentionally created content that was easy to understand and actionable. That foundational principle is the crux of Cryptonary. Taking complex ideas and opportunities and presenting them in a way a 10 year old could understand.
What makes Cryptonary different from free crypto content on YouTube or Twitter?
Signal vs noise. We filter out 99.9% of garbage projects, provide data backed analysis, and have a proven track record of finding winners. Not to mention since Cryptonary's inception in 2017 we have never taken investment, sponsorship or partnership. Compare this to pretty much everyone else, no track record, and a long list of partnerships that cloud judgements.
Why is there no trial or refund policy?
We share highly sensitive, time-critical research. Once it's out, it can't be "returned." That's why membership is annual only. Crypto success takes time and commitment. If someone is not willing to invest 12 months into their future, there is no place for them at Cryptonary.
Do I get direct access to the Cryptonary team?
Yes. You will have 24/7 to the team that bought you BTC at $1,000, ETH at $70, and SOL at $10. Through our community chats, live Q&As, and member only channels, you can ask questions and interact directly with the team. Our team has over 50 years of combined experience which you can tap into every single day.
How often is content updated?
Daily. We provide real-time updates, weekly reports, emergency alerts, and live Q&As when the markets move fast. In crypto, the market moves fast, in Cryptonary, we move faster.
How does the success guarantee work?
If our approach to the market doesn’t beat the overall crypto market during your subscription, we’ll give you a full refund of your membership fee. No questions asked. For quarterly and monthly subscribers this is applicable once your subscription runs for 6 consecutive months.
