We don't need all that modularity and the DA bs baked into these L1s.
In the L1 space, I've seriously overlooked $IOTA entering the RWA space recently and IOTA rebased is now licensed, the biggest mainnet upgrade in IOTA’s history.
Its is becoming one of the most complete community-backed Layer 1s in crypto with just $950M FDV and 80% in circulating supply.
No more VCs dumping. @iota now supports both MoveVM (on L1) and EVM (on L2), runs at 50,000+ TPS with sub-second finality, and maintains a feeless DAG architecture, something no other chain can replicate at this scale.
Most chains force a trade-off but IOTA delivers best of both worlds:
• MoveVM brings high-assurance execution for the next generation of secure Web3 apps
• EVM ensures interoperability and access to the largest pool of developers in crypto
Behind the scenes, IOTA is building infra that’s already used by governments, enterprises, and institutions.
This is what sets IOTA apart from other L1s going beyond its tech, real-world entities are already using it.
- IOTA is sets up the infrastructure for real trade, in production, in Africa. While most chains chase “enterprise adoption” without a practical use case, IOTA powers TLIP, a live logistics platform in Kenya that’s evolving into TWIN (Trade Worldwide Information Network).
- Then also the part of IOTA Identity, a privacy-first, compliance-ready identity layer. IOTA is ahead of the privacy tech, where most chains are scrambling for solutions. IOTA built theirs years ago before Vitalik decides that Ethereum should embrace privacy.
- IOTA is the first DLT registered under ADGM and Shariah-certified via Cambridge Institute. That gives it a huge edge in MENA, where finance is heavily regulated, and where tokenized assets are about to explode.
IOTA’s tokenomics are arguably the cleanest among smart contract platforms today.
Unlike most chains launching with heavy VC backing and unlock cliffs, IOTA is ICO-funded, has 80% of its token already circulating, and no investor sell pressure. Publicly traded for 8+ years. No short-term extraction.
Compare the circulation supply that to $SUI (32.5%) or $APT (52.7%)—both still heavily locked and VC-influenced. IOTA’s remaining 20% will be released gradually over 3 years, ensuring stability without shock unlocks.
In a market fatigued by unlock-driven volatility, IOTA stands out as one of the few L1s built for sustainable growth along with tokenomics.
And in a post-ETF, RWA-led cycle, $IOTA might be exactly what wins.
*Note: The feeless/gasless feature is coming soon.
