About
IOST (IOST)

IOST (Internet of Services Token) is an enterprise-grade blockchain platform designed to provide a highly scalable, secure, and decentralized network for the development of dApps. It directly addresses the blockchain trilemma by aiming for high throughput without sacrificing security or decentralization. The project stands out as a robust Web3 infrastructure, offering a developer-friendly environment capable of supporting service-oriented ecosystems. Its architecture is built to handle the high transaction volumes required by large-scale commercial applications, positioning it as a significant digital asset for enterprise solutions.

The core of IOST's innovation is its unique consensus mechanism, Proof-of-Believability (PoB). This algorithm operates alongside other proprietary technologies like Efficient Distributed Sharding (EDS) and Micro State Blocks (MSB) to achieve impressive transactions per second (TPS). PoB selects validators based on a believability score, which considers factors like token balance and reputation, ensuring network efficiency and cryptographic security. The native IOST utility token is essential for the ecosystem, used for paying gas fees, staking to contribute to the consensus mechanism, and participating in on-chain governance. This integrated tokenomics model incentivizes network participation and secures the distributed ledger.

Frequently asked questions

  • What is the HKD/IOST trading pair and its significance in the crypto market?

    The HKD/IOST pair represents the exchange rate between the Hong Kong Dollar (HKD) and the IOST token. It serves as a crucial fiat on-ramp for investors in Hong Kong and the wider Asian market to directly purchase IOST, a high-TPS blockchain network. This pairing is significant as it provides liquidity and direct access to the IOST ecosystem, known for its enterprise-grade solutions and unique Proof of Believability (PoB) consensus mechanism, without needing to first convert HKD to another digital asset like BTC or USDT.
  • What are the common methods for buying IOST with Hong Kong Dollars?

    To buy IOST with HKD, you typically use a regulated cryptocurrency exchange that offers HKD as a fiat on-ramp. The process involves creating an account, completing KYC/AML verification, and then depositing HKD using local payment methods. Common options include FPS (Faster Payment System) for near-instant transfers or traditional bank wire transfers. Once your HKD is deposited, you can place an order on the HKD/IOST order book to purchase the digital asset.
  • What are the key technical features of the IOST blockchain to consider before a HKD purchase?

    Before buying IOST, understand its core technology. IOST utilizes a unique Proof of Believability (PoB) consensus mechanism, which is designed to be more decentralized and efficient than traditional DPoS. Its architecture supports ultra-fast transaction speeds, making it an enterprise-grade blockchain suitable for dApps requiring high throughput. A major advantage is its gas-free model for users, where transaction fees are handled by a resource-staking system (iGAS). It also supports smart contracts written in JavaScript, lowering the barrier to entry for developers.
  • How does IOST's gas-free transaction model benefit a holder who bought with HKD?

    After acquiring IOST with HKD and moving it to a native wallet, the gas-free model provides significant cost savings. Unlike networks like Ethereum where every action costs gas, IOST users stake their IOST tokens to receive iGAS and iRAM. These resources are consumed when making transactions or interacting with dApps and regenerate over time. This means daily blockchain transactions can be effectively free, which is a major benefit for active users, gamers, or those frequently using services on the IOST blockchain.
  • What are the essential security steps when trading HKD for IOST on an exchange?

    First, use a reputable cryptocurrency exchange that complies with Hong Kong's regulations and has robust security features. Always enable two-factor authentication (2FA) for your account. When depositing HKD, double-check the recipient details provided by the exchange. After successfully completing the digital asset purchase, it is highly recommended to withdraw your IOST tokens from the exchange to a secure, non-custodial digital wallet where you control the private keys. This minimizes the risk of loss from a potential exchange hack.
