Life is all about the journey and the people we share it with.

The 2021 rollercoaster with the usual ups and downs has seen a fundamental transformation of #IOTA, our direction and our ecosystem.

2021 Highlights & What to expect in 2022 👇

#Shimmer #Assembly

We started 2021 with "A New Dawn" - the start of IOTAs transformation.

The #Chrysalis mainnet upgrade has introduced a complete rewrite of #IOTA, with only the Tangle (DAG) remaining.

✅ UTXO
✅ EdDSA
✅ Firefly
✅ #Rust and #Go only
...much more

The #Chrysalis upgrade was a big success, with 90% of the #IOTA supply fully migrated (more than $3.5b)

With this upgrade, we began to broaden our vision by introducing exciting new utility features on L1 and L2, and accelerate the transition to IOTA 2.0 (Full Decentralization).

Our objective is clear: Build the best possible Layer 1 DLT that is feeless, fully decentralized and minimizes trade-offs.

We want to solve the Blockchain Trilemma and help #Crypto, #Web3 and #Decentralization go mainstream.

Big claim. How are we making this a reality in 2022?

First of all, #IOTA is becoming a multi-asset ledger, supporting native tokenization. Any crypto asset can be minted in the IOTA ledger and be #feeless. In addition, we have L1 scripting (output types) for more advanced transactions and use cases.
