Group-dynamic processes as an explanatory approach Why is the FUD (Fear Uncertainty Doubt) against IOTA so big? Is it at all, or is the FUD against IOTA overrated by the IOTA supporters? Which psychological processes can be used as explanatory approaches to understand FUD in crypto space in general and against IOTA in particular? I try to find some answers to these questions here. But before I can do that, I have to go back and explain something fundamental about human thinking. Thinking in categories The…

Get OBD CAN data: Arduino Yun is used to fetch a car sensor data from OBD-II port via OBD PIDs (On-Board Diagnostics Parameter IDs). User request a special PID to get the specific data from the vehicle and there are standard PIDs which can be retrieved by vehicle’s CAN Bus. Detailed info can be found: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OBD-II_PIDs Arduino code will request the sensor data periodically and will get quick responses from CAN-Bus Shield. Same code can be used in different vehicles to get Engine/Vehicle…

IOTA Newsletter #3 — Smart Energy Ecosystem, modelling new business models & Qubic Driving DLT innovation in the smart energy ecosystem The ENGIE Lab CRIGEN and the IOTA Foundation (IOTA) signed a Memorandum of Understanding to cooperate in experimentation with the IOTA Tangle in the Energy and related IoT domains.

A few weeks ago when I was looking for a payment method for clients who used Woocomerce I run into this project. Payiota permits integrate Iota with E-commerce. I wrote to Lazslo in Reddit to ask him if he would be willing to make this interview and he said: “I’m just going to let my thought stream flow freely and I’ll put it down on paper”, So I recommend you, take five minutes to read this interview and discover his thoughts.

A live YouTube AMA was recently held by the members of the IOTA Foundation board: David Sønstebø, Dominik Schiener, and Ralf Rottmann The community was asked to post their questions on Reddit; you can see them here. There will also be a future AMA related to Qubic, date to be announced.

Since the Qubic project became known, many of us wonder what can be done with it. In this context we find one of the first exclusive projects for Qubic, qubIOTA, that is why we contacted the person behind it to tell us a little more about what it is about and what other projects are currently working on.

IOTA will be part of the MobilityHackathon in Munich from 20th to 22nd July 2018. “For two and a half days in Munich, Germany, well-known companies such as BMW, Bosch, Volkswagen, Audi & Deutsche Bahn, Amadeus, Telekom and many more will seek to move beyond the hype and demonstrate how DLT can disrupt the mobility industry by demonstrating its potential first hand. “ “The non-profit IOTA Foundation (IOTA) is convinced that collaboration is key for success and therefore is thrilled to be part of the world’s first…

VISA is capable of thousands of transactions per second (TPS), but anybody can achieve those numbers on centralized systems. Problems start to arise when you want to decentralize your data and have a trustless scheme. A trustless and immutable data architecture is achieved when lots of people all simultaneously have a copy of the data. The bigger the data holder’s pool, the more trustless the system becomes. Scalability is the golden goose in the world of “trustless” and “immutable”. The Bitcoin protocol could be considered…

Since the release of the mobile Trinity Wallet some weeks ago, I’ve been really interested in learning more about the people who brought this project to life. In today’s interview let me introduce you, for those who don’t know him yet, to Rajiv Shah. One of the youngest developers in the IOTA Ecosystem. Not only is he part of the main Trinity dev team, but also he developed one of the very first reattachers and is a moderator of the IOTA channel on Discord.

Next Snapshot: July 9, 2018 @ 08:00 UTC Network Restart: July 9, 2018 @ 15:00 UTC As you probably already know, we are performing global snapshots of the IOTA network on a more or less regular basis. The main motivation for global snapshots is to prune the database and allow smaller nodes to keep participating in the Mainnet. Otherwise, they may run out of space and fall off the network — something we definitely don’t want. The amount of traffic on the IOTA network is ever-increasing (even more so after the Tip…
