About IOTA

IOTA is a pioneering distributed ledger technology (DLT) designed to empower users with control over their private data, facilitate tamper-proof programs, and enable asset trading without intermediaries. At its core is the Tangle, a unique structure that allows for scalable and efficient transaction validation without the bottlenecks of traditional blockchains.

This system supports feeless transactions, meaning users can transfer assets without incurring any costs. The IOTA EVM Testnet is the medium where IOTA EVM builders can test smart contracts in the ecosystem. The IOTA EVM chain allows horizontally scalable, fast, secure, and parallel processing of smart contracts as well as bridgeless L2 cross-chain value transfers.

It also enables full modularity and composability of smart contracts even between chains, it ensures MEV protection, and comes with a free Random Number Generator (RNG) providing default fairness and security for dApps.

Blast Features for IOTA EVM Builders

Core API

Blast custom APIs offer optimized throughput and reduced latency for transactions on IOTA EVM and enable access to real-time data, transaction history and network status.

Included with all plans

Archive Nodes

These nodes retain all historical transaction information on the IOTA EVM from the genesis block to the present, enabling users to query and retrieve any past information. Archive Nodes is enabled starting with the Developer plan.

Included with Developer, Startup, Enterprise & Pay As You Go plans
