Description 

GOAL

GSMA during the 2019 is planning to investigating investigate the characteristics and behaviour behavior of DLT for IoT applications which utilise that utilize mobile connectivity. The idea is to gain a better understanding of the benefits of using DLT and how some of the challenges of IoT, where there are a lot of stakeholders involved, can be bridged. GSMA is also looking at the interoperability with other DLT technologies. One example could be in relation to device identity, or validation of the installed firmware/software. In general, we are not looking to store actual data produced by the devices, due to privacy and data protection laws (i.e. GDPR).
