IOST 3.0 Major Announcement: Mainnet & Snapshot

We are thrilled to announce three significant milestones that mark a new era for the IOST ecosystem. Following our strategic rebranding, IOST 3.0 represents our bold new direction, bringing blockchain technology closer to the real world through the tokenization and trading of real-world assets.

IOST 3.0 BSC Layer 2 Mainnet is Live

As part of our strategic pivot, the IOST 3.0 BSC Layer 2 Mainnet is now fully operational. This launch introduces a new IOST L2 with advanced RWA tokenization standards and our innovative Liquidity Engine technology. This groundbreaking infrastructure enables frictionless conversion between traditional assets and their digital counterparts. Supported by BNB Chain and partnered with top projects including Digift, Aspecta, and Paimon to promote liquidity on RWA assets in the secondary market, IOST 3.0 is positioned to unlock trillions in previously illiquid assets.

Snapshot Successfully Completed

In order to secure the rights of all IOST holders, a snapshot was successfully executed on March 15th at 00:00 UTC. This snapshot forms the foundation for upcoming token events and ensures a smooth transition to the new ecosystem.
