IRISnet is an innovative read of what blockchain technology can bring to the business world. While most consortium blockchains are owned and operated by big conglomerates of companies, IRISnet aims to bring solutions to small business operations.

One of their latest developments is the IRITA, an enterprise blockchain bringing flexible digital asset modeling and privacy-centric data authorization to the business world.

One of the IRISnet protocol’s main selling points is that it aims to combine both on and off-chain capabilities. While transactions are executed on the blockchain, data processing and business logic will be executed off-chain. In addition, IRISnet also offers products like a smart wallet for business operations.

IRISnet announced an initial token supply of two billion IRIS tokens distributed in several key groups. According to the IRISnet whitepaper, 25% of tokens were released for private sale, 15% were distributed among Bianjie AI team members and 15% are reserved to support the IRIS Foundation’s functions. Another 30% of issued tokens went towards ecosystem development, while 5% were dedicated to a special Cosmos Hub Airdrop. Finally, 25% of tokens went to the Tendermint developer team; however, most of these tokens will be vested in increments after the IRIS Hub launch.

According to the founders, proceeds from the private sale of IRISnet coins will be directed predominantly towards the improvement and further development of the IRIS network.

Like many popular altcoins, IRISnet is a delegated proof-of-stake (dPoS) coin, based on the Tendermint Consensus. Tendermint emerged a little after the introduction of the Bitcoin and Ethereum consensuses, and it aims to become an all-encompassing consensus engine.

A delegated proof-of-stake consensus depends on the reputation of nodes, thus eliminating misbehaving nodes as the process goes on. For a transaction to be completed on a dPOS consensus, stakeholders request action from a trusted validator, who then processes the transaction. Because of the reputation model, validators (nodes) are bound to perform accurately; otherwise, they are removed from the network.
