[ICYMI] The IOTA Foundation and @walt_id are developing Login with IOTA - a #SSI-based login system compatible with Web2 & #Web3 apps.
Sounds great, right? But what does this *actually* mean - a thread🧵
2/ Logging into a website shouldn’t mean having to sacrifice the privacy and security of your data.
The good news is - it doesn’t have to thanks to Login With #IOTA.
Read on👇
3/ Login with IOTA is a decentralized login solution that removes control of your data from centralized big tech providers and puts it in your hands - preserving your privacy online.
Here's how⏬
4/ The key phrase is self-sovereign identity (#SSI), which allows you to manage & control your own digital identity.
🔸share personal data with a SSI wallet (one time only)
🔸share verifiable information at your own discretion
⏩Your data. Your choice.
5/ Will I be able to use this in real life? Yes.
Login with IOTA uses globally recognized standards to ensure interoperability & data security - making adoption and implementation a piece of 🍰!
6/ ➡️Speaking of interoperability, Login with IOTA is developing not one but 2️⃣ separate solutions: a Web2 and #Web3 login system, covering both centralized AND decentralized websites + applications.
7/ So, that means I can continue to use the same websites & login to the same identity providers without having to sacrifice the privacy and security of my data?
Exactly.✔️
8/ The first version of Login with #IOTA will officially launch in autumn 2022 - stay tuned!

@arxiv First off, "Access Control for Distributed Ledgers in the Internet of Things: A Networking Approach" describes how writing into the Tangle is regulated and the #access control for our #DAG-based protocol. 👇1/3 arxiv.org/abs/2005.07778
To allow for a fast and parallelizable protocol at the core of #IOTA 2.0, the Reality-based #UTXO ledger enables optimistic treatment of incoming transactions before eventual consensus is achieved.

We see a lot of #cryptocurrencies claiming to be green right now. At the IOTA Foundation, we believe we have a strong case for being one of the greenest. Here are some of the use cases in which #IOTA’s unique, feeless technology is helping to combat #climatechange.
#IOTA is being used to digitize measurement, reporting and verification of sustainability performance (known as @digitalmrv) in Chile, funded by the Canadian government - blog.iota.org/iota-and-clima…
#IOTA is being used by @JaguarLandRover, @EngieLabCrigen & @EntraASA to trace the path of energy from production in solar panels to consumption in electric vehicles in Trondheim, Norway -
