Cross-border paperless trade in Asia Pacific still sits at around 42%.
The appetite is there.
The next step is shared infrastructure every party can trust - the kind IOTA is built to provide.
"Governments are not going to work with a BVI company or a Cayman Foundation. They really want to work with entities that they can trust."

In an ideal world, a port can trust where the data comes from.
Not because someone said so.
Because the origin, the authenticity, and the integrity of the data can be proven on-chain.
The ShimmerBridge on ShimmerEVM, powered by LayerZero, will be discontinued on August 28, 2026.
We strongly recommend that all holders of bridged assets on ShimmerEVM (incl. tokens like LUM and DEEPR) bridge them back to a supported network before this date.

Led by the @AfCFTA, in partnership with the @InstituteGC, the @wef, and the IOTA Foundation, ADAPT is building the shared digital infrastructure for a single African market.
In each pilot country, this means establishing digital identity systems, enabling live cross-border data exchange, and integrating interoperable payment rails.
Before and after Starfish
Huge impact on reliability and robustness on the IOTA network. Especially during high throughput, Starfish consensus delivers predictable and reliable confirmation times. Exactly what businesses need.
Next up: Making it even faster (below 500ms) 🚀
Why did Turing Space build on #IOTA?
Because a lifelong credential passport needs infra that's borderless, feeless at the edge, and globally available.
That's not a pitch deck.
That's the IOTA Trust Framework in production today. 🌍

Kenya, Morocco, and Nigeria are the first countries to implement ADAPT, laying the foundation for a shared digital infrastructure for intra-African trade.
🎥 TBI’s Alban Odhiambo speaks to @cnbcafrica about ADAPT, developed by @AfCFTA in partnership with TBI, @wef and @iota
Really proud of the pioneering work we're doing together with the AfCFTA, the Tony Blair Institute and other partners to digitize trade across Africa.
Kenya, Morocco and Nigeria will be the first ADAPT implementations.
Lots more to follow once the trade routes are fully operational.
@r0ck3t23 The US never reached the power to destroy the USSR while Russia still possessed nuclear bombs. Only after Russia detonated the bomb was a balance achieved on paper. After that came physical balance and MAD (Mass Addiction Deployment).
@r0ck3t23 The US abandoned its plan to attack the USSR because it lacked sufficient nuclear bombs and aircraft. The USSR developed three major military plans between 1945 and 1948 for an attack. Therefore, the US nuclear monopoly existed only on paper.
@krkya1234@ConflictTR Değil. Kararlı bir SEAD/DEAD ile İran'ın hava savunması kolay olmasa da kısa/orta vadede çökertilirdi. Savunma işin goy goyu. Kimse mutlak savunma yapamaz. Zaten maliyet ve üretim süresi açısından savunma, saldırının kabaca 10 katı kadar.
