Thank you @MikeThaInvestor for hosting @DanSimerman! Dan starts out with "IOTA has seen quite a transformation" "We have taken a step back and really wanted to focus, build, and deliver." "The sleeping giant is awakening!" People don't realize the scale and scope of our vision.
Anyone can copy #Bitcoin or #Ethereum and say they are unique, but #IOTA really is unique in a very literal sense. Mike comments on the Tangle, a DAG instead of a normal blockchain. Dan: in 2015 the #IOTA founders realized a new architecture was needed to break out of limits.

It's chilly today but nothing like during #SnowballEarth – a deep freeze that took place about 720-640 million years ago. Carbon dioxide levels plummeted, #Earth cooled and was mostly covered in ice.

We know about #SnowballEarth thanks to #geology. Glacial deposits - rocks that were left by glaciers - indicate there were glaciers at the equator at that time. If there were glaciers in #Earth's warmest areas, there were probably glaciers everywhere.

#SnowballEarth likely ended because volcanic eruptions under the ice put CO2 back into the atmosphere and warmed earth again. This facilitated the #CambrianExplosion ~541 million years ago, in which complex animal life forms appeared on Earth for the 1st time.
