IRISnet (IRIS) is a protocol designed to be the foundation for next-generation applications. IRISnet permits token transfers across multiple blockchain networks. The main goal of IRISnet is to deliver a blockchain-based open network to small and medium companies that are offering a wide variety of services.

As per its whitepaper, blockchain technology is still in its early stages. As with any new technology, there are defects. These include narrow performance and unstructured governance mechanisms. Presently, these defects make it challenging for blockchains to assist real-world distributed business collaboration. IRISnet intends to improve the current blockchain technology and make it feasible to allow businesses to provide their services and earn rewards in an open network. 

IRIS network is developed on top of Cosmos and Tendermint to solve the problems around existing blockchain networks. Cosmos is a network of multiple independent blockchains, called zones. Each zone is powered by the Tendermint protocol, which provides a high-performance, consistent, and secure engine, allowing a hold over malicious behaviours within the network.

IRIS is the native fee token for all transactions on IRISnet. One of the benefits for IRIS token holders is that holders participate in governance by creating and voting for governance proposals. Furthermore, there are two types of tokens expected to support IRISnet's operation: 

IRISnet was developed and designed by the tech experts behind Bianjie AI, a tech company founded in 2016. Harriet Cao is a co-founder at Bianjie AI and one of the leaders behind the IRISnet protocol establishment. Haifeng Xi is the other co-founder at Bianjie AI. He has expertise in developing distributed systems and blockchain applications.
