$IOTA

IOTA's current market price is around $0.10, with a 24-hour trading volume of approximately $8.5 million. The total supply is capped at 4.6 billion tokens, with 3.5 billion currently in circulation. Recently, IOTA's foundational protocol is undergoing significant updates, including the IOTA 2.0 upgrade, which aims to enhance decentralization, scalability, and security. The upgrade will implement a staking-based consensus mechanism, allowing IOTA to support broader use cases in the Internet of Things (IoT), where it already shows promise.

Looking ahead, IOTA's unique technology—using the Tangle (a directed acyclic graph structure instead of a traditional blockchain)—could position it as an essential player in IoT applications due to its feeless, efficient transaction structure. Predictions for IOTA's price vary, but some analyses suggest it could reach around $0.30 to $0.40 by , reflecting possible increases of 20-30% if it capitalizes on these advancements.

Long-term, IOTA’s potential lies in its applicability to real-world assets, supply chain management, and machine-to-machine payments, where scalability and low transaction costs are crucial.
