Microsoft and IOTA launch first cryptocurrency market for the IOT

Berlin-based IOTA Foundation collaborates with Microsoft, Fujitsu and twenty different organizations to dispatch the primary freely available micropayment-based information commercial center for the Internet of Things that will be totally controlled by circulated record innovation.

The activity, enables partners to safely exchange and adapt information and plans to exhibit a proof of idea for a carefully designed information commercial center.

With a specific end goal to guarantee rigidity, the information in the wake of being transferred to IOTA's decentralized record disperses to uncountable hubs.

Particle is the ninth greatest digital currency with a present market top of about $3 billion. At the point when propelled at the Taiwan-based trade Bitfinex in June, the money crushing exchange volume records came to $1.5 billion market capitalization just inside hours.

The key element that separates IOTA from other blockchain innovations is that it depends on a strategy it calls 'Tangle'. Contrasted with standard blockchain, this bewildering technique offers zero-expenses exchanges in addition to much better scaling shots, as guaranteed by prime supporters Dominik Schiener and David Sønstebø.

“We are very excited to announce the launch of our data marketplace,” said Sønstebø. “This will act as a catalyst for a whole new paradigm of research, artificial intelligence, and democratization of data.”

The startup has assured to release a series of case studies and blog posts showcasing the several ways in which companies and individuals can take advantage of the technology.

Ordinary cybersurfers will also have the opportunity to sell their data on the data marketplace by simply connecting their ‘Internet of Things’ devices to the IOTA ledger. This will let them cash in on numerous data.

According to IOTA, all the data will be valued equally for the inaugural demonstration, however, the scheme might change in the future. “For this proof of concept, all of the data is rated equally,” said Schiener. “In the next iteration, we will include a simple bidding mechanism coupled with more complex querying for datasets.”
