IOV provides blockchain solutions that empower people to securely and seamlessly exchange and manage digital assets on the blockchain. IOV introduces a DNS-like protocol, a Blockchain Name Service, which is a registry for all the blockchain names and the value addresses on IOV’s Blockchain Communication Protocol.

IOV’s universal protocol, the BCP, is a set of standards that allows all blockchains to trade and interoperate with one another. The key user-facing features of IOV’s cross-chain protocol are simple “human readable” wallet addresses for sending and receiving tokens, that make token transfers as easy as using email.

Another key feature is the cross-chain atomic swap wallet that enables interoperability between chains and allows different types of tokens to be exchanged directly with one another without a third party. With the Blockchain Communication protocol, there will be no need to start from scratch every time a blockchain is created. Everyone will be able to have their tokens and their blockchains visible to everyone and exchanged in a simple way, always through the same wallet. Meanwhile, with the Blockchain Name Service the navigation in the IOV ecosystem becomes intuitive and human readable. The ultimate goal of IOV is to enable blockchain mass adoption by making the exchange of values a secure, decentralized and intuitive user experience
