Introduction of IOTA 2.0 DevNet brings full decentralization and it greatly expands the capability of the IOTA protocol, getting it ready for a multitude of use cases in the new digital economy.

According to the report, Nectar represents full decentralization of the IOTA network. For the first time, new messages sent to IOTA’s internal data structure, Tangle, will not be protected by an additional, central authority known as Coordinator.

Reacting to the new development, Dominik Schiener, Co-Founder and Chairman of the IOTA Foundation, said:

“IOTA 2.0 DevNet ‘Nectar’ marks a major milestone on IOTA’s trajectory towards full decentralization. I cannot understate the importance of this release: Nectar is the living proof that you can have feeless, scalable, secure, resource-efficient, and fully decentralized DLT.

“It’s a game changer. Now that we are releasing it to the public, we are excited to see how it performs. The feedback on the DevNet’s capabilities and use cases will be essential as we continue preparing for the final Coordicide update.”

“Everything IOTA does rests on bold ideas backed by rigorous research. IOTA 2.0 DevNet’s consensus protocol is one particular development that fills us with pride. We have developed a mathematically elegant, resource-efficient, and secure DLT solution that will eventually render the Coordinator obsolete and make the IOTA Mainnet fully decentralized while keeping it feeless – an industry first.”
