There are explanations and reasons for everything, but it doesn't matter much if you are disappointed with your experience and want to sell. It seems to me you have run out of patience / have lost your faith that IOTA will ever get where they want to get.
To be honest, I don't think anybody's personal user experience has been much of a concern to the IOTA project up until now. The new wallets might change that, so you might want to hold on to your coins until then.
They promise to solve all of the issues that you mention:
- Automatic node selection rather than the limited amount of nodes currently listed in the wallet software.
- Automatic re-attaching and promoting transactions.
- Address re-use detection.
Automatic and distributed snapshotting of the network is also on the roadmap, this would address your zero balance issue.
But like I said, if you have run out of patience and you have your eyes on other projects that do deliver what you are looking for, then by all means...
- StavrosK 9y agoI hope the new wallets fix everything, but, in my opinion, having to promote transactions is a terrible hack and the new wallets don't seem to fix that (they just make it automatic). Combine that with the hand-waving of the vulnerabilities by the community, and it's not a good sign. However, I'm not really interested in speculating about the price (I've never bought more than $100ish worth of any cryptocurrency), it's just that I don't see IOTA being a useful currency for me to play with.
