IOTA

A distributed ledger technology designed for the Internet of Things (IoT) that uses a Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG) called the Tangle instead of a traditional blockchain, enabling feeless microtransactions.

Example

For example, IOTA's feeless Tangle architecture makes it suitable for machine-to-machine micropayments, such as a self-driving car automatically paying a toll of 0.001 cents without transaction fees.
