The Builder Server runs as a separate environment from the current community server to minimise distraction and maximise productivity. It is directed towards those developing applications or participating in the IOTA community.

Purpose and Features of the Builder Server

The IOTA Builder server is intended for the IOTA-specific development work. Its main aim is to reduce interference while providing resources and support for creativity. While the previous setup integrated community forums and development into one entity, the Builder Server focuses on the work of project teams and individual developers.

Some features include the ability to work with other people, direct contact with the IOTA Foundation developers, and no distractions. Developers are able to discuss ideas, overcome difficulties, and contribute directly to the enhancement of the protocol. This space also enables a more efficient interaction between builders and the IOTA Foundation.

Also, the Builder Server provides a place for infrastructure operators to deliberate on node management and network availability. It aims to attract enthusiasts to participate in and interact with IOTA’s innovative technologies and welcome people of all backgrounds.

The release of the Builder Server happens at the same time as the IOTA governance voting process, which is still underway. As we previously reported, Proposal IGP-0007 focuses on ecosystem development and is now up for voting by token holders. This initiative aims at increasing public awareness and expanding the on-chain network parameters.

The voting phase, which started on January 13, will end on January 20, and the voting results will be announced within a week until January 27. Token holders are allowed to engage through IOTA Firefly and Bloom Wallets to determine the direction in which the ecosystem is moving forward.

IOTA Price Movement and Market Trends

In light of these developments, IOTA’s market performance has risen. The token has experienced major increases, having increased 22% of its value over the week and 12.3% over the month. Currently, IOTA is trading at $0.39, posting a 1.30% decline in the past 24 hours. It also has a market capitalization of $1.42 billion. Its 24-hour trading volume has also increased to $219.74, registering a 7.2% increase.

According to CNF, crypto analyst Lokman Duman identified specific levels for IOTA’s price movement. The first resistance level is at $0.3400, which the token has already touched. If the price drops below this point, further rise can take it towards $0.3600 and $0.4000. However, if the rally falters, critical levels to watch lie at $0.3100 and $0.3000.
