Same protocol as IBM's Adapt project. they both use Telehash.
But it seems Tilecoin will complete that protocol earlier than IBM's project!!! 

Telehash: Its one thing for devices to use block chain to understand contracts and capabilities, but they also need to communicate it, which is why Adept is using Telehash, a private messaging protocol that was built using JSON to share distributed information. Its creator Jeremie Miller says at its simplest telehash is a very simple and secure end-to-end encryption library that any application can build on, with the whole point being that an end can be a device, browser, or mobile app. He added, Perhaps, you can think of it as a combination of SSL+PGP that is designed for devices and apps to connect with each other and create a secure private mesh? A new version of the software is expected soon.
