IOTA Achieves Major Milestone in European Blockchain Pre-Commercial Procurement
Advancements in European Blockchain Development: A Milestone Achievement by IOTA
Overview
IOTA Foundation, along with its peers Chromaway and Billon, has marked a significant achievement in the European Blockchain Pre-Commercial Procurement (PCP) process. This collaboration has yielded innovative pre-commercial solutions focusing on Intellectual Property Rights Management and Digital Product Passports—key aspects demonstrating scalability and sustainability. Following these developments, discussions are ongoing to extend this groundbreaking initiative under its new governance model: EUROPEUM-EDIC.
Completion of a Transformative Journey
The year 2021 saw IOTA ascend as one of the select entities among a group exceeding thirty proposals under the European Commission-funded blockchain PCP initiative. The objective was clear – to forge novel Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT) solutions that would not only integrate into the existing European Blockchain Services Infrastructure (EBSI) but also enhance it under EUROPEUM-EDIC for supporting next-gen scalable, energy-efficient blockchain applications.
Since embarking on this trajectory in 2020, every progression phase – Phase 1, Phases 2A & B alongside promotional materials like detailed leaflets have been meticulously chronicled. In partnership with notable entities such as Digimarc and Universidad Politécnica de Catalunya among others, IOTA is keenly pursuing further development of these prototypes to transition them from conception to market readiness.
Innovative Constructs Developed Under PCP
Key Technological Layers
The core technological layer engineered during this PCP blends IOTA’s DAG-based Tangle distributed ledger technology with open-source elements envisaged for use within Europe’s future blockchain ecosystem. Notably:
- Core DLT Layer: Utilizing Stardust protocol enhancements featuring decentralized consensus via Proof-of-Authority involving EU state nodes achieves streamlined transactions.
- Satellite Systems: Integrating other platforms via connectors supports thorough traceability through an Auditable Item Graph which digitally twins both tangible and intangible objects.
Prototypical Solutions Highlighted
Distinct prototypes like:
- Intellectual Property Rights (IPR) Management: Employing smart contracts NFTs within an accessible EU Digital Identity-compliant marketplace ensures transparent royalty distributions particularly for music utilized in films.
- Digital Product Passports: This includes lifecycle tracking from inception through recycling in electronics or transforming agricultural waste into bioplastics within plastics management.
Demonstrated Advances Across Key Metrics
Our accomplishments reflect robust advancements notably within scalability realms evidenced by successful deployments across multiple nodes ensuring enhanced transaction capabilities without compromising environmental considerations:
- Rigorous energy-use assessments project log-scale consumption improvements significantly surpassing counterparts such as Hyperledger Besu operated by EBSI.
Security compliance aligns with recommendations from authoritative bodies CISA/NSA/NIST including strategic adoption of Quantum-resistant cryptographic measures ensuring profound data protection readiness against emerging threats.
Furthermore, our systems’ surgical precision integration capacity observed through comprehensive API documentation paves paths towards universal HTTP method standards adherence enhancing technical maturity substantially.
Pathway Towards Sustained Impact And Commercialization Prospects
As we evolve past EBSI towards EUROPEUM-EDIC horizons we aim at strengthening collaborative efforts realizing concrete functionalities deployed across versatile EU member state environments via an envisioned IOTA-EBSI Sandbox empowering practical explorations aimed at durable community-centric innovations
