Way to pimp your altcoin at the end there. IOTA isn’t even in the same league as bitcoin. It’s not decentralized and it’s not trustless. Just use SQL at that point...

Those points are not accurate.

IOTA uses the coordinator as a security measure right now (against 34% attacks) and will be removed once the coin is distributed enough to diminish probability of attacks. So saying it is not decentralized isn't honest. Without the coordinator it is decentralized.

Point two is also refuted once the coordinator is gone.

Opinions on Streamr v Iota?
I see you took the long way around to agreeing with me at the end there. Have fun with your coordinator. Cheers!
