It is not easy for a husband chain like @ iota, which has been around for over a decade, to maintain updates in today's competitive landscape of numerous public/side chains. The last time I saw their message was last year when they talked about the Rebased mainnet upgrade. However, at that time, because this chain was a bit biased towards web2 in my eyes, and the ecosystem on it did not have many opportunities, I hastily skipped it during project research. A few days ago, @ DomSchiener posted an IOTA manifesto. The article is quite lengthy, but the general idea is that Last May, they completed the rebased upgrade, perhaps considering that this old public chain had no soil on DeFi or Meme, so they chose to take a different approach and developed a TWIN system: digitizing millions of documents and ensuring the circulation of physical goods. This basic market has a market of approximately 35 trillion yuan. This includes commodities, minerals, accounts receivable, and the like. However, if IOTA wants to carve out a small piece of this, the time/energy cost involved will not be low. However, the direction of this transformation is actually correct, but the new path needs to be explored again. They raised 50WU through an ICO in just 15 years, and have been continuously updating for over a decade now. It's really difficult. If we want to put it aside now, we would have to have tens of millions of dollars. If you are still investing limited resources in meme or defi, to be honest, you really can't compete with the big brothers in the front row. It's better to change our mindset and do RWA or web2 oriented things, as there is still a possibility of running out When writing this article, I happened to receive a news email from Stark Wallet @ ready_co earlier. I was curious and checked the transaction fees of several familiar chains. It can only be said that it is difficult to describe in words.
