I think both IoT and massive type communications are related to each other. The thing must contain a machine to perform acquisition storing processing and transmitting the data to other thing or machine.
Both are treated in the LTE standards. They will be made to coupe with the 5G technology.

NB-IoT is and will continue to be relevant to very low power unattended sensor networks and suchlike applications for many, many applications and will be incorporated into future 3GPP releases for the foreseeable future. Even in LTE, from which NB is derived, the NB-IoT system is implemented as something of a side channel.
I think NB-IoT has been adopted as part of mMTC in 5G to support applications with low data rate and flexible latency requirements. However, for those with critical bandwidth and latency requirements, other technologies will also be used, such as uRLLC.
