The milestones of 18 months public IOTA project
The “public IOTA project” was launched about 18 months ago. We started with the motto “to move IOTA and the Tangle forward”. Since then, we have been trying to advance the project with open and honest reporting. With this compilation we would like to show the highlights s of this project.
During this time we have held countless conversational discussions with people, companies, cities and research institutes and have been able to inspire a whole range for IOTA and the technology of Tangle. It’s nice to see that some of those who are experimenting with this technology today or putting on testbeds have become aware of Tangle technology through our informations and discussions. Why we are doing the public IOTA project, whether we are funded and who helped us so far, can be read soon in the interview with the founder of the public IOTA project (I will link it here soon). Here are our highlights:
February 20 18: Four people start the independent “public IOTA project”. The objective is to support IOTA and the new Tangle technology and to advance it through public relations.
