IOTA 基金会偏离以物联网为中心的目标，转而支持代币化

IOTA基金会联合创始人兼董事会主席Dominik Schiener最近解释了他们此举的原因。

IOTA began its journey closely intertwined with the concept of the Internet of Things (IoT). This network of interconnected physical devices, known as IoT, is a vast tapestry woven together by sensors, software, the cloud, and a multitude of technologies.

IOTA 的旅程开始与物联网 (IoT) 的概念紧密相连。这种互连的物理设备网络（称为物联网）是由传感器、软件、云和多种技术编织在一起的巨大挂毯。

In contrast to the original vision of IoT, IOTA harnesses the capabilities of its Tangle Web3 platform, which is underpinned by a directed acyclic graph (DAG) infrastructure. This architecture provides a conduit for tamper-proof data, feeless transactions, and minimal resource consumption.

与 IoT 的最初愿景相反，IOTA 利用其 Tangle Web3 平台的功能，该平台以有向无环图 (DAG) 基础设施为基础。该架构提供了防篡改数据、免费交易和最小资源消耗的渠道。

Yet, those following the trajectory of the IOTA Foundation may have discerned a gradual shift from its IoT-centric endeavors towards a greater focus on tokenization. Recently, Dominik Schiener, Co-Founder and Chairman of the Board of Directors at the IOTA Foundation, elaborated on the rationale behind this transition.

然而，那些关注 IOTA 基金会发展轨迹的人可能已经发现，其以物联网为中心的努力逐渐转向更加关注代币化。近日，IOTA基金会联合创始人兼董事会主席Dominik Schiener详细阐述了这一转变背后的理由。

A Departure from IoT and a Focus on Tokenization

远离物联网并关注代币化

In an interview, Schiener noted that while the Internet of Things remains relevant, "the world has moved on" from it, at least in their view.

席纳在接受采访时指出，虽然物联网仍然具有重要意义，但“世界已经发生了变化”，至少在他们看来是这样。

This realization prompted the IOTA Foundation to slowly pivot away from its initial emphasis on "IoT." For Schiener, digitization and automation have become more pervasive than ever before. In light of this shift, tokenization has taken center stage in these endeavors.

这种认识促使 IOTA 基金会慢慢偏离最初对“物联网”的重视。对于席纳来说，数字化和自动化比以往任何时候都更加普遍。鉴于这种转变，代币化已成为这些努力的中心舞台。

Schiener described tokenization as the "silver bullet of cryptocurrencies" due to its ability to transform assets into an immutable and self-sovereign entity, eliminating the need for intermediaries. He sees this as a crucial ingredient missing from industries in the digital age.

席纳将代币化描述为“加密货币的银弹”，因为它能够将资产转变为不可变的、自我主权的实体，从而消除对中介机构的需求。他认为这是数字时代各行业所缺少的一个关键要素。

The IOTA representative highlighted that tokenization remains "the biggest untapped market" as the majority of value in the world is still locked within dormant, analog assets. To this end, their aspiration is to integrate these real-world assets (RWAs) with Web3 to unleash their unrealized potential.

IOTA 代表强调，代币化仍然是“最大的未开发市场”，因为世界上大部分价值仍然锁定在休眠的模拟资产中。为此，他们的愿望是将这些现实世界资产 (RWA) 与 Web3 集成，以释放其未实现的潜力。

IOTA and Regulatory Compliance

IOTA 和监管合规性

The IOTA Foundation is a non-profit foundation registered in Germany, enabling it to collaborate with government entities, other non-profit organizations, and legitimate enterprises across Europe and beyond. This focus on regulatory compliance was further evidenced by the organization's strategic expansion into Abu Dhabi, strengthening its presence in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region.

IOTA基金会是一家在德国注册的非营利基金会，使其能够与欧洲及其他地区的政府实体、其他非营利组织和合法企业合作。该组织战略扩张至阿布扎比，加强其在中东和北非 (MENA) 地区的影响力，进一步证明了对监管合规性的重视。

Its flagship project in MENA is the Trade Logistics Information Pipeline (TLIP). In essence, the platform facilitates the tokenization of trade documents to expedite their processing, transfer, monitoring, and verification, all while ensuring their security and maintaining trust between transacting parties. Currently, TLIP is being piloted in the cross-border exchange of Sanitary and Phytosanitary (SPS) trade documents within the East African Community (EAC).

其在中东和北非地区的旗舰项目是贸易物流信息管道（TLIP）。从本质上讲，该平台促进了贸易文件的标记化，以加快其处理、传输、监控和验证，同时确保其安全并维持交易双方之间的信任。目前，TLIP正在东非共同体（EAC）内的卫生和植物检疫（SPS）贸易文件跨境交换中进行试点。

IOTA: Operating Beyond the Norm

IOTA：超越常态的运营

Schiener emphasized that IOTA goes "beyond the typical crypto casino," unlike others, showcasing the tangible application of blockchain technology through their signature DAG architecture.

Schiener 强调，与其他公司不同，IOTA“超越了典型的加密货币赌场”，通过其标志性的 DAG 架构展示了区块链技术的实际应用。

The IOTA Foundation co-founder highlighted that there's more to blockchain and crypto than just trading and investing. With that, they've successfully demonstrated its use cases in trade finance, logistics tracking, digital product passports, and regional vouchers.

IOTA 基金会联合创始人强调，区块链和加密货币不仅仅是交易和投资。至此，他们成功展示了其在贸易融资、物流跟踪、数字产品护照和区域优惠券方面的用例。
