IOTA Expands Real-World Applications Through EU and Industry Partnerships

IOTA has been selected for a European Commission pilot program. The project will use IOTA’s Tangle technology to track municipal transport infrastructure and verify environmental sensor data. This marks IOTA’s first large-scale government deployment in Europe.

The Shimmer network, IOTA’s development environment, has activated smart contract functionality. This upgrade allows developers to create applications using Ethereum’s programming language. The change broadens IOTA’s capabilities for financial tools and token projects.
