Many of you will know IOTA is based on a directed acyclic graph (DAG) instead of a blockchain.But to really understand this approach, and the difference with blockchain it can be very clarifying to visit a tangle visualizer such as:https://ift.tt/2Bq96iu of a 15 min visualization: https://ift.tt/2QAjUVA really fun to watch.If you're a bit into math you can understand how this model can scale more easily than a blockchain. A blockchain needs bigger blocks or faster processing. The DAG will become wider and will go forward faster (until you reach the bandwidth limits of nodes, after that clustering comes in play).
