How many blockchains can say this? Multiple countries. Live onchain. In 12 Months 🇰🇪 Kenya in Q1 Five countries by the end of 2026 That’s the rollout plan of $IOTA "too ambitious?" look at the groundwork already laid... Spoiler: It's not just Africa ↷ Q1 is the inflection point Kenya's trade goes live on mainnet. Think Trade documents, compliance data, and settlement events start flowing onchain. Digitizing trade first and then tokenize assets for DeFi (more to it later) This follows the TWIN / ADAPT goal: build reusable trade infrastructure that can scale toward dozens of countries This didn't happened overnight we talking: ⦁ Kenya: ~5 years of groundwork ⦁ AfCFTA partnership: ~2 years in the working Onboarding additional countries will take months not years. 55+ countries (all of Africa) planned till ➜ 2035 Target ➜ 5 countries live on mainnet by EOY 2026 Plus ➜ 2–3 additional pilots running in parallel Expected activity (Kenya): Baseline: 30k–50k tx/month Post-Q1: ~100k tx/month On their own, those numbers look modest. But trade scales horizontally (more countries, more corridors) and vertically (financing, settlement, collateral on top). That’s how early baselines multiply, without changing the underlying rail. What this unlocks for (you) retail Tradefinance allows you: Participation in trade finance yields (10–15% APY range) Posssible via tokenized assets and trade receivables Connected to DeFi protocols on IOTA ⦁ Expect new stablecoins, marketplaces, and tokenization platforms ⦁ Projects like Salus coming in Q1–Q2 The difference: yield is tied to real trade flows, not speculative loops. IOTA pulls real-world trade onchain: SMEs on one side. Liquidity from investors on the other. Beyond Africa Trade is international and so are the projects. Pilots planned in UAE 🇦🇪 and USA 🇺🇸 Southeast Asia countries like Korea 🇰🇷 and Vietnam 🇻🇳also have been metioned over the last few weeks. Especially the USA is now a priority market for IOTA, with a legal entity in NYC expected to launch in the coming months. The US anchors finance, standards, and dollar liquidity for global trade. The first step is already done with BitGo, securing US-grade custody and compliance before scaling settlement, financing, and trade workflows. In the US, adoption doesn’t start with users. It starts with trust rails. In 2026, we’ll see a meaningful wave of crypto adoption. Not driven by speculation, but by integration. This is the transition from crypto as a market to crypto as infrastructure. Quiet. Boring. Irreversible.

Trust doesn’t scale when it’s locked in wallets Making credentials verifiable via simple links is how digital trust finally meets the real world

This piece captures the moment well. It’s a hard market and a necessary transition, one that validates the thesis @iota has held from day one: real-world adoption, real users, real infrastructure. That’s how this market matures, and why those committed to the underlying technology and innovation have remained focused through every cycle.

Over the past few weeks, I’ve been strongly encouraged by the high level of interest in the ADAPT initiative and IOTA commitment to revolutionize trade on the African continent by establishing one shared, public digital infrastructure. Participating in the ADAPT launch in Johannesburg last month also gave me the chance to meet with many of our partners and potential partners in person, which I believe provides a solid foundation for a successful and meaningful long-term collaboration. What stayed with me most were the conversations – listening, debating, and reflecting on how we can truly unleash the potential of trade across Africa and beyond. In particular, I was inspired by our meeting with H.E. Secretary General Wamkele Mene of the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA) Secretariat, who has taken the lead in the implementation of ADAPT. His personal commitment to overcoming the many obvious obstacles to the execution was clear from our conversation. What is really great is that actual implementation starts very soon. Please watch this video in which Sir Tony Blair from Tony Blair Institute for Global Change, H.E. Wamkele Mene, Dr Talkmore Chidede, Chido Munyati and I expand on the ADAPT initiative, the thinking behind it, and what it means for the future of trade in Africa.

“The foundations are in place, the business case is compelling, and through joint effort, I truly believe we can make this happen.” @DomSchiener reflects on the launch of ADAPT & how collaboration can transform African trade.

Roadmap of IOTA 26' Hear it from Dom

Great talks ≠ adoption But huge signal nonetheless. 안녕하세요 IOTA 🇰🇷

🇦🇪 IOTA DLT Foundation is very much alive. Abu Dhabi based foundation organized a developer meetups in Lagos, right in the AfCFTA context. Bringing 80 developers together TechCabal covered it ~1.1M+ monthly readers Serious African tech audience my friends. Look ADGM isn’t just about hosting products and dapps... It’s positioning itself as a coordination layer for digital trade, identity, and finance corridors Gulf ↔ Africa included Products come and go. Rails, standards, and developer networks are what compound.

Believe in something IOTA

@gobbli @IotaPoet @realizefinance If the next @MagicSeaDEX is, this means that the EVM ends at @iota. I hope this doesn't happen. There is a lot of silence on the EVM side.😣

@IotaPoet @realizefinance MagicSea will be the next one. To low liquidity….. 😢

Hey #IOTA fam, @realizefinance has entered into liquidation due to lack of interest. Sad 👇

@tcampomanes P K T ?

In IOTA we already have the mysterious Project P and the no less intriguing Project K… But now rumors are starting to spread about a third guest: Project T 🔍 It seems it’s going to be quite interesting. Oh… what will it be, what will it be…? 😏🧪 #IOTA

Global trade is being rebuilt - and it’s happening on IOTA. TWIN (@TWINGlobalOrg) is already powering real-world data flows across African and European supply chains, proving how open, instant and secure trade can be when it runs on decentralized tech. iota.org/learn/showcase…
