What is IOTA?

IOTA is a fee less and scaleable transaction settlement and data transfer layer with a focuss on the Internet of Things (IoT). It is based on a novel distributed ledger technology called the Tangle, that uses the Structure of a Directed Acrylitic Graph (DAG) instead of a Blockchain which can overcome the inefficiencies of current Blockchain designs and introduces a new way of reaching consensus in a decentralized peer-to-peer system.

... and this is how it looks!
