Two billion tokens: IOTA is growing steadily with a concrete benefit – investors reward that
- Over two billion IOTA tokens show the trust of investors in the project-now institutional staking is also coming with the support of Figment.
- Iota cooperates with the Tony Blair Institute to provide a blockchain infrastructure for trade, ID and other services in Africa.
The IOTA network shows signs of increasing maturity and dynamics, which are characterized by a number of developments that indicate both the trust of the community and institutional commitment. By this week, over 2 billion IOTA tokens were used in the Mainset, which corresponds to about 43 % of the total circulating offer.
This step goes hand in hand with the introduction of an institutional staking infrastructure, new partnerships with global political organizations and a strong appearance of builder in the Asian-Pacific region. Taken together, these signals indicate a growing role for IOTA in the technology of the public sector and decentralized administration.

The IOTA Foundation signed a memorandum of understanding with the Tony Blair Institute for Global Change (TBI), which formals a partnership to build a trustworthy digital public infrastructure. The partnership focuses on source -based, standard -based systems to support cross -border trade, digital identity and the provision of public services.
According to the declaration of intent, the first missions will take place in Africa, where infrastructure gaps are still a major obstacle to the economic participation. According to CNF, the two organizations plan the joint development and introduction of the Twin system, which should enable safe and verifiable data exchange.
This also includes solutions that are in line with the digital trade protocol of the African continental free trade agreement (AFCFTA). The applications of the system range from the digitization of customs and trade logistics to platforms for identity review, which are intended to simplify access to state services.
Figment supports Institutionelles strike
In this context, the support for institutional staking in the IOTA-MANNET was also put into operation by the staking infrastructure provider Figment. This enables more than 700 institutional customers of Figment to use the IOTA operational mechanisms through real-time monitoring, delegation tools and technical coverage.
The introduction marks the entry of IOTA into the competitive field of Layer 1 networks that offer staking services in corporate quality. With over 2 billion tokens that have already been used by the community, the additional institutional support will increase both the liquidity and the participation of the validers. The participation of Figment also introduces new surveillance standards and potential analysis options for the staking process, which means that IOTA with broader trends in the infrastructure for digital assets.
Growing commitment of the builder through APAC Moveathon
The protocol also attracted attention at the APAC Moveathon final in Singapore, where a selection of development teams presented solutions that build on the IOTA network. Twelve finalists presented applications that ranged from decentralized automation to financial services to innovations in the supply chain. Projects such as hyperagile, Figo, Auto-Diota and Zephyr were among those who were awarded for their technical creativity and practical design.
These presentations are part of a greater exertion of increasing the participation of developers and emphasizing IOTAS modular skills in all sectors. The Moveathon event also underlined regional engagement, since Southeast Asia remains a focus on the introduction of blockchain and testing infrastructures.
The latest sequence of activities indicates a turning point for the IOTA system. The amount of the commitments of the community indicates long -term trust, while institutional integrations such as the ones with Figment open paths to scalability. In the meantime, partnerships with political organizations of IOTA technology can open doors to contribute to national strategies for digital transformation.
