IOST is a smart contract platform focusing on performance and developer friendliness.
- The V8 JavaScript engine is integrated inside the blockchain, so you can use JavaScript to write smart contracts!
- The blockchain is highly scalable with thousands of TPS. Meanwhile it still has a more decentralized consensus than DPoS.
- 0.5 second block, 0.5 minute finality.
- Free transactions. You can stake coins to get gas.
OS: Ubuntu 18.04 or later

IOST node uses CGO V8 javascript engine, so only x64 is supported now.
