Discover the potential of #IOTA beyond #crypto! From secure payments to transparent tracking and smart city solutions, IOTA's tech is set to reshape industries worldwide🌍
🌐 The #IOTA 2.0 protocol is composed of several structures, which we can think of like atoms. In this latest blog post, we break down the IOTA atoms to see what they look like and how they help IOTA operate! 🔗https://t.co/hzmJmDfjHd
Just a reminder: This is a marathon.
We are part of this ecosystem to build a generational technology with the potential to significantly improve our world and transform how we transact and do business in a global, digital society. We’re not here to build a better casino. We’re here to create a movement to disrupt today’s power imbalance and to create open, transparent and incorruptible systems. We’re here to empower people to finally be in control and to own their data, assets and identity. Instead of extracting value, we’re meant to create opportunities for those who are less privileged, and to enable them to participate in the value creation of our global economy. We’re supposed to create a future without borders, a truly global economy and society.
Somewhere along the way we’ve lost our roots, forgotten about our principles and the future we are meant to create. A large part of our industry has devolved into a money making machine for those who want to get rich quickly. The last 2 years have shown the worst sides of Crypto. Ponzinomics, meme frenzies, influencers, narrative-driven hype and pump and dumps. It was about extracting value - not creating it. We were supposed to bank the unbanked, but we’ve mostly created one of the greatest exit strategies for insiders to dump on retail. If all that we’ve achieved is to make a bunch of nerds rich so that they can live in their mansions, then we’ve collectively failed.
What is happening with the anti-crypto stance of the US is very unfortunate but it’s not surprising. Considering what has happened over the last year and how we’ve let this industry be run by rampant scammers, grifters and thieves. Millions of people have lost their life savings because we’ve given a handful of people too much power and have allowed them to build the exact centralized money houses we were meant to replace. All we can do is convince them that we're building real technologies that provide real value.
What is happening today should not discourage us from marching forward. We cannot afford to run our digital world on centralized systems which are controlled by a few. Only decentralized technologies that are impartial, incorruptible and unstoppable can create the future we need. We will only achieve this if we go back to our old ways, be rooted in principles and work on visions of a better future. Let’s stay focused on creating real value with the technologies, networks and ecosystems we’re building.
I'm convinced that we are on the right path to realize the potential of Crypto and prove all the critics and skeptics wrong. It will take time, but with the amount of talented builders, amazing creators and principled thinkers that are part of this industry we will march forward and go back to creating value. Let the next 5 years be the best yet to come - we will make sure of it.
Let’s build a better future together ❤️
It’s all that matters.
As promised, we're celebrating our anniversary in this #IOTA community and we wanna give a special #NFT ONLY for our adopters🎁 Do you remember this egg? 😉 (1/4)
Beautiful, fragile, mysterious, they are a symbol of a new life, of a transformation that tells us of great stories that can change the future of #IOTA. The only form strong enough to protect an inner life from the outside world. (4/4)
Because it all started with an egg... an egg that gave life to each of the only 1010 #GAVIOTAS It is the symbol of where we come from and where we will go. (3/4)
[ICYMI] #IOTA is selected for next phase of EU blockchain Pre-Commercial Procurement to develop & test a #DLT solution for delivering improved European-wide blockchain services. https://t.co/RHvbIELjhL
@EU_Commission@EU_EBSI.
@svartalfajeim@hus_qy We're fine and marching forward with the ShimmerEVM and IOTA 2.0. The Foundation is taking responsible steps to build up reserves so that we can meet these two major milestones without more delays.
Don't listen to the FUD.
