IOTA is making strides in launching real-world blockchain applications in trade, finance, and identity with the support of MoveVM and EVM.
The project has achieved live deployments hosting tokenized U.S. Treasury Bills through Realize Finance and integrates with the TWIN Foundation and Swirlstake for global trade systems and liquid staking.
IOTA's infrastructure emphasizes real milestones over hype, showcasing a strong decentralized network with plans to expand to over 150 mainnet nodes and offering a dual-stack model with MoveVM for compliance and security and IOTA EVM for DeFi compatibility.
The Business Innovation Program (BIP) and validator network expansion demonstrate IOTA's commitment to enterprise-ready blockchain services, with selected projects receiving funding and leveraging advanced features for widespread adoption.
