IOTA price prepares to rebound after the Foundation parts ways with creator David Sønstebø

  • IOTA price has lost 37% of its value in the past two weeks and is ready for a rebound.
  • David Sønstebø was kicked out of the IOTA Foundation Board of Directors and Supervisory Board.

On December 10, the IOTA Foundation Board of Directors and Supervisory Board announced that David Sønstebø was no longer part of it after a unanimous decision made by the rest of members in the best interest of the project.

David has been instrumental in founding the project and helping to build the initial team, vision, and ecosystem. However, it has become clear that David’s interests and the interests of the IOTA Foundation have diverged significantly.

IOTA price could be poised for a bounce in the short-term

Although David Sønstebø was an important pillar in the business activity, the IOTA Foundation states that, ultimately, this resolution was good for the ecosystem of the same one. IOTA price is trading in a significant downtrend on the daily chart but looks ready for a bounce.
