Mariana De La Roche is Senior Regulatory Affairs Expert at IOTA, Co-Chair of the social impact and sustainability working group at INATBA.
We cover a wide range of topics in our conversation, including, community led projects, projects with a focus on agricultural and climate and Mariana’s passion to speak about the social impact of blockchain technology. EnergyKnip, Zignar, YennaTech and a project for carbon monitoring were just a few projects mentioned.
We also spoke about a more positive approach to regulation and the importance of encouraging dialogue. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jMCr-7Ichcg
Mariana is helping to set standards and definitions of key concepts using blockchain solutions. See the following report from INATBA
INATBA
The International Association for Trusted Blockchain Applications serves as the bridge between public and private entities in the blockchain ecosystem: INATBA maintains a permanent and constructive dialogue with public authorities and regulators for global convergence of regulatory approaches. In doing so, INATBA works to promote an open, transparent and inclusive global model of governance for blockchain and other distributed ledger technology infrastructures that reflect the shared interests of Member and Advisory Board stakeholders.
IOTA
IOTA is a distributed ledger with one big difference: it isn’t actually a blockchain. Instead, its proprietary technology is known as Tangle, a system of nodes that confirm transactions. The foundation behind this platform says this offers far greater speeds than conventional blockchains — and an ideal footprint for the ever-expanding Internet of Things ecosystem.
