IOTA is an open-source distributed ledger protocol launched in 2015 that goes ‘beyond blockchain’ through its core invention of the blockless ‘Tangle’. The IOTA Tangle is a quantum-resistant Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG), whose digital currency ‘iota’ has a fixed money supply with zero inflationary cost.
IOTA uniquely offers zero-fee transactions & no fixed limit on how many transactions can be confirmed per second. Scaling limitations have been removed, since throughput grows in conjunction with activity; the more activity, the more transactions can be processed & the faster the network. Further, unlike blockchain architecture, IOTA has no separation between users and validators (miners / stakers); rather, validation is an intrinsic property of using the ledger, thus avoiding centralization.
IOTA is focused on being useful for the emerging machine-to-machine (m2m) economy of the Internet-of-Things (IoT), data integrity, micro-/nano- payments, and other applications where a scalable decentralized system is warranted.
Among the different cryptocurrencies in the crypto space, three have shown huge potential and use cases in recent months – IOTA (MIOTA), Chiliz (CHZ), and Pomerdoge (POMD).
Cryptocurrency is still a fledgling industry that can be volatile at times. As a result, investors must conduct a thorough study and assess a coin’s prior performance before investing huge sums of money.
Starting with Adirize DAO (ADI), an upcoming cryptocurrency set to explode.
These two players coming together will allow multiple industry players to enjoy automated data sharing across IoT platforms. They will also work together to facilitate secure communication and payments across devices.
The IOTA 2.0 DevNet Nectar went live on Wednesday, a step initiated towards complete decentralization of the IOTA Protocol. The new DevNet brings a modular architecture along with giving individual nodes the autonomy to evaluate new messages in a decentralized manner.
