IOTA is gearing up for one of the most significant upgrades in its history. On May 5, 2025, the IOTA network will undergo a transformative rebase that marks the beginning of a new chapter—one defined by full decentralization, smart contract integration, and real-world utility.

Built on nearly a decade of research, this new IOTA promises to deliver a powerful foundation for the next wave of Web3 innovation. The team describes it as a leap “inspired by the best of Web3, committed to open-source values.”

What’s Changing?

The rebased IOTA Mainnet will introduce:

  • Full decentralization with up to 150 validators
  • Blazing scalability, boasting 50,000+ TPS and subsecond finality
  • Staking rewards ranging between 10%–15% APY
  • MoveVM, enabling Layer 1 smart contracts

“IOTA is no longer just an experiment in scalability—it’s a full-scale platform ready for global adoption,”

said Dominik Schiener, Co-Founder of IOTA, in a recent X Space Townhall.

Smooth Transition, Massive Impact

During the upgrade process:

  • $IOTA trading remains live on exchanges
  • Deposits and withdrawals will be paused temporarily
  • A 13-Validator Genesis Ceremony will launch the rebased network.

These steps are designed to ensure a seamless transition for token holders and network participants. Users are encouraged to review the official launch guide.

IOTA Future Starts Now

This mainnet rebase is more than a technical upgrade—it’s a strategic move to position IOTA as a major contender in the next phase of blockchain development. Additionally, with a focus on scalability, security, and usability, IOTA aims to become the go-to infrastructure for decentralized applications and real-world use cases.

“As of 5.5.2025, we leave the past behind and step into the future of a fully decentralized, enterprise-ready IOTA,”

Schiener emphasized during the April 23rd Townhall event.

The rebased IOTA delivers the tools developers and enterprises need. Moreover, a dedicated community actively supports this shift toward decentralization and innovation.
