$MIOTA has been one of the best performers in the @COIN360com top 100 list with a 9.2%% daily gain and 21% weekly gain.

What powered such a price surge in a bleeding market? #IOTA 2.0 with @shimmernet, #Stardust, and more @iota developments.

A 🧵 👇

0/
1/ What is @iota?

A distributed ledger built for the "Internet of Everything" for exchanging value and data between humans and machines.

It uses Tangle, a structure where newer txs verify the older ones, for parallel validation of txs without requiring total ordering.
2/ It offers a network that is:

- Secure: the whole system is distributed across many network participants -> no single point of failure or attack

- Feeless: no txs fees charged, but $MIOTA holders can secure prioritized txs if the network reaches capacity limits
3/
- Lightweight: low requirements, small single-board computers and edge devices can be used to run the protocol

- Frictionless: no txs fees -> data-related functions are more accessible

- Scalable: Nakamoto Consensus + DAG, parallel processing allows up to 1,000 tps
4/
- Permissionless & leaderless: no 3rd/centralized party to validate txs. Consensus doesn't rely on selected network participants

- Flexible: enable public & private Tangle -> can be used as a public ledger (permissionless) or a private ledger (permissioned)

- Open source
5/ The following tweets will take a brief overview and development status of:

1⃣ @iota 2.0
2⃣ @shimmernet
3⃣ #Stardust
4⃣ $MIOTA metrics
6/ 1⃣ #IOTA 2.0

@iota is upgrading its IOTA 1.5 Chrysalis to IOTA 2.0 Coordicide for a fully decentralized, feeless and highly scalable distributed ledger technology.

The removal of Coordinator, a centralized node run by the IOTA Foundation, can help boost decentralization.
7/ In his thread, @cyrilXBT added a graphic from the core team that illustrates how the #IOTA 2.0 is set to work:

According to the @iota roadmap, IOTA 2.0 devnet has gone live. More detailed updates in their blog post: blog.iota.org/iota-2-0-detai…
8/ 2⃣ @shimmernet

An #L1 incentivized staging network for the @IOTA mainnet.

It's a DAG-based parallelized settlement layer with higher #L2 anchoring capacity than standard blockchains
9/ How can it help build #IOTA 2.0?

- Features will be added on Shimmer for testing before going live on mainnet

- Iterate & deploy quickly -> Speed up the development process as new changes are made & tested

Key differences? 👇
10/ What will it offer?

1⃣ Native Tokens: custom tokens can be minted & transferred feelessly

2⃣ Feeless #NFTs: no creating/trading fees

3⃣ Output Types

4⃣ Build Your Own: builders' ability to develop EVM-based dApps with the tools and concepts they're used to
11/ #Shimmer Network will officially launch on Sept 28, which means that #IOTA token stakers can claim their Shimmer staking rewards on @fireflywallet app.

Besides $SMR, one key point that excites the community about the Shimmer mainnet launch is #Stardust.
12/ 3⃣ #Stardust

A comprehensive utility upgrade of the IOTA Chrysalis protocol. Why use it?

- Make @iota a multi-asset ledger
- Enable the operation of #IOTA Smart Contracts

-> Program digital 💸 with any business logic via smart contract chains
-> Print unique digital 💸
13/ Stardust upcoming release on @shimmernet will bring:

- #L1 native tokens and #NFTsales
- Smart contract chain anchoring
- Storage deposits
- Improved microtransactions
- And more to the ecosystem
14/ 4⃣ $MIOTA

As per @COIN360com data, #IOTA token changes:

- 9.2% in 24h
- 21% in 7 days
- 9.5% in 30 days

$MIOTA was born with no locked tokens, no early corporate investors, and no tokens for founders to utilize fair distribution.
15/ How did $MIOTA get a strong upside narrative?

The network needs it to:

- Back all data stored on the Tangle -> deposit $MIOTA to store data on #L1 -> dust protection

- Create "Mana" to get a fair share of the Tangle throughput

- Stake for pre-launch rewards
16/ @iota gives $SMR and $ASMB rewards to users who choose to stake $MIOTA.

For every 1 #MIOTA staked in @fireflywallet, users get 0,000004 $ASMB every 10 secs.

Meanwhile, all eyes are on #SMR.

Shimmer Genesis supply: 1,813,620,509 $SMR
Distribution to IOTA stakers: 80%
17/ This was the result of a community vote, which was highlighted in the following blog post: blog.iota.org/shimmer-ecosys…

@SpecWeekly also made a video for further thesis:
18/ What's next for @iota?

They'll have these releases after all the stages in the pic below are reached:

- Seamless protocol upgrades
- ShimmerEVM Chain
- Stardust on IOTA

Plus more real-world expansions & Touchpoint Open Builders Program updates:

Some cryptocurrencies gave up their gains yesterday as $BTC slid below $19,000, and $DXY took a rally to 112, which is considered negative for #bitcoin price.

In #Coin360 Daily Digest: Image
2/ $BTC failed to break $19,500 today.

It is trading under $18,800 at the time of writing, posting a 1.4% drop in the past 24h. Traders are waiting for Powell's comments at the "Fed Listens" event.

After a short rebound, the crypto market came back down on fears of a potential implosion as 3AC was facing serious insolvency risks. In #Coin360 Daily Digest👇

@Immutable @DecentralGames @decentraland @sknupsgg @dolcegabbana @LidoFinance @FTX_Official @BitvoCrypto @PolyNetwork2
1/ $BTC was wandering around the $20k support level with the RSI falling to the deeply oversold stages.

This suggested a short-term relief rally, but if #BTC breaks support, a new round of liquidations will occur. Traders should beware of the sell-off as:
2/ $ETH faced a similar situation as it was entering the oversold level, but traders were afraid of a drop to $1k which could push the price lower.

Despite the clarification made, @Tether_to didn't seem to be able to retain its users as the No.1 #stablecoin market cap has fallen under $70B, reaching its lowest point since October 2021.

$USDT $USDC $BUSD $DAI $FRAX $TUSD
Data from @santimentfeed also suggested that big investors were staying away from $USDT since the addresses with $100k to $10M in $USDT had plunged by -50.5% of their coins, showing signs of holding less percentage of supply.

Meanwhile, @MakerDAO appeared to try to protect their slight recovery in $DAI by temporarily disabling the DAI Direct Deposit Module (D3M) for @AaveAave, which is believed to help them avoid the risk of not being able to retrieve all the $DAI that @CelsiusNetwork borrowed.

We had been seeing green for most of the day as more assets recorded a relief rally. In #Coin360 Daily Digest 👇

@TrueGlobalVCs @circlepay @animocabrands @TinyTapit @HuobiGlobal @HuobiTH @InverseFinance @ankr @optimismPBC @AcalaNetwork @pendulum_chain @amplitude_chain Image
1/ $BTC failed to cross $23k overnight and went back to its $21k level. As the rate hike seemed to be priced into the market, the market leader didn't make big moves.

@intotheblock data suggested a potential bottom as it spotted the largest #BTC inflow since Feb.
2/ $ETH spiked by 4%+ today, but traders warned of a possible bull trap amid @CelsiusNetwork and 3AC's risks.

$TRX was among the top gainers as @trondaoreserve announced to withdraw 3B #TRX to protect $USDD peg. Other winners were $EGLD $THETA $HNT $SOL with double-digit gains. Image

The second financial quarter of 2022 witnessed the first-ever drop in #stablecoin supply from the beginning of cryptoverse, according to @coinmetrics Head of R&D @LucasNuzzi.

This was caused by multiple factors, as...
Data from @cryptoquant_com pointed out that the total supply of stablecoin had a freefall on May 14, which might have been a result of whales' effort to exit the market following $USDT's depegging.

According to on-chain analytics platforms, 7B $USDT were wiped out.
$DAI was hit hard by the collapse of @terra_money $UST and recorded a massive liquidation, marking its supply down by 34% from 9.2B at the beginning of Q2 to approximately 6B today.

1/ $BTC marked an 8%+ drop in the past 24h and dropped to below $20,700 at the time of writing. With the price action, many analysts doubted #BTC's ability to sustain the low $20,000 zone for long.

$BTC number of addresses in loss (7d MA) reached an ATH: Image
2/ $ETH was bleeding to under $1.1k following $BTC's plunge. The percentage of @ethereum addresses in profit has dropped to the lowest level since April 2020, as per @intotheblock:
