🧵 Everyone's chasing the next new L1’s.
But an old player from 2015 steps back into the ring - with weapons they don’t have.
@iota is back with the rebased mainnet upgrade!

Crypto has long been a parade of illusions.
It's not the one who builds the foundation who wins, but the one who draws the facade first.
While some chase attention, others spend years refining the architecture, knowing the market forgets everything but results.
I think reality
Cycles shift focus from one project to another, often subtly. Those who remained after the noise weren't necessarily louder, just more precise. IOTA took its time, focusing on building.
A few days ago, it became official: @iota's rebased mainnet is launched. twitter.com/3992601857/status/...
Simply put, Rebased is a core upgrade.
IOTA transitions from the outdated UTXO model to launch a full-fledged MoveVM directly on L1.
Contracts now exist as objects with explicit ownership - no global states, no conflicts, no EVM-style vulnerabilities.
So what makes this new
MoveVM isn't just an EVM alternative; it's a cleaner way to represent assets and logic.
Tokens + loans + records + ownership = everything becomes an object that transfers directly.
No endless approvals and re-entrancy bugs.
But this didn’t happen overnight. IOTA had to build

Important: Rebased doesn’t eliminate the EVM. Solidity contracts remain on L2.
That means:
> dApps can migrate without rewriting
> One network, two virtual machines
> Shared liquidity and deep composability
For devs, it’s freedom.
For IOTA, it’s adaptability that Sui and

What’s powering this adaptability in practice?
Rebased launches with delegated PoS and 150 validators. Without allowlist and central authority.
Staking rewards: 10–15% APY.
Fees? Burned.
Inflation? Controlled.
Finally, tokenomics that benefit the network.
And unlike

And.. claiming a DeFi niche is one thing.
Becoming the infrastructure for trade, supply chains, and sovereign finance is another.
IOTA is already live in Kenya, tokenizing US Treasuries with Realize in ADGM, and supporting EU pilots for digital identity. twitter.com/112669068/status/1...
IOTA is ambitiously constructing the full stack - from L1 and wallets to digital passports and compliance rails.
Shariah-certified and ADGM-registered, it supports real-world asset adoption within government frameworks.
It's about doors that open only for those who build within

Projects utilize IOTA across various industries, connecting the real world with Web3 to create transformative solutions.

All the essential projects for the ecosystem's success are already in place.
I think it's a good time to dive in and start twitter.com/179536968989737779...
Crypto trends catch eyes, but true builders create lasting infrastructure. Prioritize the quiet innovators over the hype catchers.
And now.. with the market quiet, it's the perfect time to DYOR (start your journey from @DomSchiener's post).
