The partnership also focuses on promoting Waltonchain blockchain technology to achieve the municipal and commercial IoT coverage.
Blockchain has recently garnered widespread support across many sectors due to advantages in high performance, security, speed access and efficient operation.
The decentralized approach of blockchain technology is promising for IoT security in terms of how it works with cryptocurrencies. The integration creates a more resilient ecosystem for devices to run on by ensuring that data is legitimate, and that the process by which new data is introduced is well-defined. In addition, the technology behind Bitcoin can be used to track, process and coordinate transactions between devices, allowing for significant savings to IoT industry manufacturers.
Nevertheless, the approach could be a bit challenging since blockchain works through consensus between millions of nodes that are physically distributed around the globe, while the small IoT networks may lack this important feature.
