while the whole crypto world is burning due to Ledger Gate 🔥, we will just continue to look on the latest updates on the #IOTA 2.0 node protocol development. Image
2️⃣ This week we got a lot to cover. A few changes on the GoShimmer repository and big steps on the #IOTAcore implementation. Furthermore we got a lot of information from the Research Engineering Team that helps to understand the direction of the development. So let's go:
3️⃣ Last week i said #GoShimmer has finally abandond, this week we are seeing very minor changes around a specific test case. @jonastheis_ also commented on it, saying that: The team will continue to test things on GoShimmer that are not yet available on #IOTAcore. Image

Why #Shimmer & #IOTA use a DAG structure instead of a blockchain for their L1? Well, one of the main reasons comes down to scalability.
🧵 1/7
#Test2Conquer #shimmer Image
Scalability issues of blockchain can be traced back to the basics of its design - blocks come 1 by 1 and there is a defined block size and block time.
If you know those last 2 values in a blockchain, you can easily calculate the expected TPS. 2/7
So nothing easier than increasing the block size and/or decreasing the block time, right?
Well, no. It is proven that this approach introduces security risks and decreases decentralization, often also impacts reliability (*cough* Solana *cough*). 3/7

Shimmer Network

The #Shimmer Network is a staging network for $IOTA and operates as a Tangle-based multi-asset ledger.
This ledger enables users to mint their native tokens and NFTs with the Stardust Tokenisation Framework Protocol Upgrade. This upgrade also allows smart contract chains anchored to $SMR to transact with other chains on the Shimmer network.

Dr. Bing-Yang Lin, Senior Software Engineer at the #IOTA Foundation, just presented some first research results on the robustness of the IOTA 2.0 consensus mechanism! 👀

Non-technical summary below! 👇🧵
1/ What are the objectives of IOTA 2.0?
2/ What is the Tangle?

The Tangle is a Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG).

Rather than transactions created by users being incorporated into blocks by miners, users function as both the miners and the creators of transactions.

Do you want to protect your privacy and security without using centralized IAM solutions?

Learn about @iota's Self-Sovereign Identity (SSI) project: Login With IOTA.

Let’s dive in🧵👇🏼 Image
Introduction

For the last couple of decades, Identity and Access Management (IAM) has been a critical topic on the internet, allowing users to be on-boarded in various systems like e-commerce, social media, and e-governance.
However, IAM has had to make tradeoffs between security, centralization, and privacy, often favoring centralization at the expense of privacy and security.

Shimmer Network to Test and Confirm IOTA's Technical Roadmap

To hasten IOTA's technical roadmap, all fundamental protocol upgrades and functionality upgrades will be first made available on Shimmer to test and confirm.
The $SMR token is the native token of the Shimmer network and will be used to settle execution fees on smart contract chains.

On top of being the most centralized crypto in existence (one iota coordinator controls all iota transactions), #iota is also the most active token printing machine. 🧵
#iota monetized its testnet, codename shimmer, printing 1.45 QUADRILLION new #smr tokens into existence, thus sabotaging its main token #miota.
Afterwards, shimmer denominated its supply by 1 million times, without as much as a community voting, and increased shimmer's supply by an additional 20% (iota is the FED of crypto, printing new tokens out of thin air because why TF not)

We have to stop calling it "crypto-currency". We are definitely not creating currencies that will replace fiat currencies - that idea is long dead.

We are building unstoppable, programmable infrastructure for digital economies that benefit everyone.
There is only one technology that allows for unique, immutable digital records of data - and that is Blockchain.

The applications that are enabled from this innovation are endless, and we must focus on making those a reality and stop wasting time on pipe dreams.
Tokenization is key to our future - and to break up the digital divide.

We will empower people to take back control of their digital autonomy and participate in digital ecosystem in new ways that will put them in control and ownership!

[1/🧵] A brief #thread on how to properly download and verify your newest #IOTA #Firefly Windows version. 😉 Source: https://block-builders.de/iota-wallet-firefly-jetzt-
[2/10] You might be wondering why @iota doesn't allow you to download & upgrade the version via the client.

To be honest, this would definitely improve usability (#UX), but it would also need the user to trust the DL content.

That is precisely what we do not want with #crypto. Source: https://firefly.iota.org/

With #smartcontracts on the scalable and feeless #Shimmer network, we will see the rise of frictionless, decentralized and scalable #web3 economies. 🚀

We gathered our six major use cases for you! 🧵👇
1) Energy management

Shimmer is well suited for energy markets, real-time data management and moving #carboncredit or #renewable energy certificates without transaction costs.
2) Digital Identity

Shimmer is ideal for #NFTs, native tokens and smart contracts to interact with digital identities. Identities can control other identities, which enables flexible modeling.

(1/x) In 2023 @Schpoopel @bandalof17 and I will start sharing a bit more about what we're doing at #touchpoint.

But before we do, let's take a quick look at 2022 and what we learned in year 1 of Touchpoint 🧵

#shimmer #iota
(2/x) First off, Touchpoint 101:

Touchpoint is a network and community of #builders operating at the forefront of #web3. It's a decentralised support system and environment to network and build relationships.
(3/x) Touchpoint 2022 in numbers

With hardly any promotion, we received 200+ applications, onboarded 50 projects, and 15 expert groups and mentors.

We facilitated over 250 new relationships/connections, and hosted 15 knowledge sharing sessions and demos.

I've been asked a lot lately why @Nakama_Labs are focused on building and investing on #Shimmer #IOTA. I figured I'd respond in this tweet 🧵👇

#web3 #DeFi #GameFi #NFT
1/ For starters, there are no layer 1 transaction fees for either minting or moving assets/NFTs. This makes it more accessible and cost-effective for creators and users.
2/ ShimmerEVM uses a random order consensus to confirm transactions, which prevents sandwich/front/back running MEV attacks on Dexes. This ensures a more secure and fair trading environment.

Before joining the IOTA Foundation (IF), Hans ran an online business, which accepted crypto as payments.

In 2017, Bitcoin became popular and its transaction fees rose. So, it did not make sense to accept BTC payments anymore.

Looking for alternatives, Hans discovered IOTA. He talked to CfB. Hans was impressed by the underlying idea of the protocol. So, he became part of the community.

In 2018, Hans joined the IF to fix the existing tech problems.
