IOTA hub is here
In its official blog, IOTA shared how the unique architecture of IOTA that involves DAG makes it more challenging for the exchange and other service providers to integrate IOTA in comparison to the traditional blockchain and cryptocurrencies.
A few of these challenges are seed management, reattachment, deposit address monitoring, confirmation monitoring and no double signing due to database constraint. However, today changes all this as IOTA Hub offers a “standardized, open-source solution to these issues using a simple gRPC API in a hardened and audited environment.”
Now, integration of IOTA has become simple for any kind of service provider. Instead of months, it would just take weeks as the exchanges only need to connect the Hub to their existing platforms.
Talking about his development, the team shared-
“Everyone at the IOTA Foundation is extremely excited to launch Hub and grateful to all of our partners that supported us on the journey. We are confident that more exchanges and service providers will begin supporting IOTA in the coming weeks and months, leveraging the simplicity of IOTA Hub.”
Another advantage of Hub is that it supports externally signed transactions that have access to the database but not to the salt. This will further increase the operational security as it would be “impossible for an attacker to gain complete control over the exchanges’ funds by compromising a single system.”
The open source code of Hub will be soon made available on GitHub so that other exchanges and services that wished to use IOTA can utilize it.
