IOTA is gaining momentum fast. With price surging past key resistance levels and volume picking up, is this the start of a major rally?

May 5, 2025, will mark a historic date for the blockchain ecosystem: the IOTA network is preparing to complete an unprecedented upgrade, transforming into a fully decentralized, scalable platform ready to handle a wide range of Web3 applications.

Since 2015, IOTA has undergone several technical transformations to meet the growing demands of the blockchain ecosystem. With the IOTA Rebased protocol, the most complex and decisive update ever faced arrives. After months of technical testing, auditing, and community governance-based decisions, the network will finally become a decentralized Layer 1 blockchain, based on a Delegated Proof-of-Stake (DPoS) consensus mechanism.

IOTA has confirmed plans to implement its historic upgrade on May 5, migrating from Stardust to the IOTA Rebased protocol. The upgrade represents a key milestone as it ushers in a new dawn for the blockchain and its community.
