IoTeX is an EVM-compatible Layer 1 blockchain built around machine data. Its own documentation calls it a "lightning-fast Layer-1 blockchain optimized for DePIN and real-world AI applications," where DePIN means decentralized physical infrastructure networks: fleets of sensors, cameras, energy meters, vehicles and other devices that produce verifiable data and earn token rewards for doing so.
IOTX is the native coin of that chain. It pays gas, backs the staking and delegate-voting system that produces blocks, and funds the rewards paid to block producers and the people who vote for them. The EVM mainnet runs on chain ID 4689 (a live RPC query returns 0x1251), with a testnet on 4690, so standard Ethereum tooling works after a network switch rather than a rewrite.
Official sources:
IoTeX was founded in September 2017 by Raullen Chai, Qevan Guo and Jing Sun, with cryptographer Xinxin Fan among the founding team. Chai had led cryptography work at Uber after engineering roles at Google and Oracle, and the original pitch was an "internet of trusted things" in which devices hold identities and sell their data without a corporate intermediary.
IOTX first circulated as an Ethereum ERC-20 token. The IoTeX mainnet launched in April 2019, followed by a Mainnet Beta that November, and holders migrated to the native coin. Early on the project shipped its own hardware, including the Ucam privacy camera and the Pebble Tracker, largely to prove a device could sign data straight into a blockchain.
The larger change came with IoTeX 2.0, published in 2024, which repositioned the network from an IoT-specific chain into a modular infrastructure stack other DePIN projects can build on, and revised the token model alongside it. Work since then has leaned toward connecting real-world device data to AI systems.
Consensus is a design the team calls Roll-DPoS, short for Randomized Delegated Proof of Stake. It combines delegated proof of stake, Practical Byzantine Fault Tolerance and verifiable random functions, and runs in four stages:
Elect candidates IOTX holders stake and vote for delegates. The candidate set is at least 36 delegates, fixed for one epoch of 30 iterations. Registering a delegate profile costs 100 IOTX, and a candidate needs at least 1.2 million votes from a single account, either their own self-stake or a third party backing them under the Delegate Endorsement scheme.
Form committee For each iteration a committee of 24 is drawn from the candidate pool using a verifiable random function. Randomizing which delegates are active makes it harder to predict or target the current block producers.
Propose block Rounds run roughly every 2.5 seconds. Each committee member takes a turn proposing a block and broadcasts it with the proof, so other nodes can check the proposer was the expected one.
Finalize block The rest of the committee votes on the candidate block using PBFT. Once more than two thirds agree, the block is final and appended, giving instant finality rather than probabilistic confirmation.
Voting is not optional for stakers. Anyone staking at least 100 IOTX must direct that stake to a delegate, which ties reward eligibility to network participation. Delegates can distribute voter rewards on their own schedule or opt into Hermes, an on-chain system that automates payouts and makes them auditable.
IOTX launched with a maximum supply of 10 billion tokens. It is used for:
IoTeX also runs a mechanism called Burn-Drop, in which registering new devices burns a set number of tokens and airdrops a corresponding amount to stakers. It is unusual in tying supply reduction to real device onboarding rather than to fee volume. The token model was revised in IoTeX 2.0, so current parameters are best checked against the official documentation.
IoTeX built device-facing primitives into the base layer instead of leaving them to applications. Identity for machines, off-chain proof generation and attestation, and reward tooling all exist as protocol-level pieces, so a DePIN team can register hardware, prove it did work, and pay for that work without designing the plumbing itself. The randomized committee in Roll-DPoS is a deliberate middle path too: it keeps the speed of a delegated system while making the active producer set unpredictable within an epoch.
Compared with general-purpose Layer 1 networks, IoTeX narrows its scope. Rather than optimizing for a broad DeFi or consumer market, it optimizes for cheap, frequent writes from many devices and for proving that off-chain events actually happened.
Compared with other IoT-adjacent networks such as IOTA or VeChain, IoTeX is fully EVM-compatible, which lowers the barrier for Solidity developers. Compared with single-purpose DePIN networks that own both the hardware and the token, IoTeX positions itself as shared infrastructure many projects can build on rather than as one network serving one device type.
Chain security rests on the elected delegate set, the distribution of stake behind those delegates, PBFT finality within each committee, and the randomization that decides which delegates are active. The top 100 delegates by votes share variable rewards, and the top 36 serve as Consensus Delegates responsible for verifying transactions and producing blocks.
The network's history includes one serious incident worth understanding, because it shows where the real risk sat. In February 2026 an attacker compromised an employee's machine through a suspected social engineering attack and used that access to upgrade an ioTube bridge validator contract on the Ethereum side to a malicious version, bypassing validation and signature checks. Roughly 4.4 million dollars of bridge reserve assets were drained and 410 million CIOTX were minted. The IoTeX L1 chain itself was never compromised. Validators voluntarily halted the chain within about two hours of detection, a network upgrade restored it on February 24, most of the improperly minted CIOTX was frozen without liquidity paths, and IoTeX opened a compensation portal on March 2 offering full reimbursement from its foundation treasury. CIOTX was permanently deprecated, and the project added multi-signature governance, hardware security modules, real-time monitoring and further audits, with a trust-minimized bridge based on zero-knowledge proofs under development.
IoTeX has spent years on the unglamorous parts of connecting hardware to blockchains: identity for machines, verifiable off-chain computation, and reward accounting that survives audit. Whether or not DePIN becomes a large market, those are the primitives the category needs. Its handling of the 2026 bridge incident, including a chain halt, full reimbursement and a public post-mortem, is also a useful reference for how a mid-sized project behaves under pressure.
IOTX trades on centralized exchanges and on decentralized exchanges within its own ecosystem. Availability, pairs and regional access change over time, so confirm current support with the venue before trading.
IOTX has historically been listed on large international exchanges, including:
Coinbase suspended IOTX trading on 23 September 2026 while continuing to support deposits and withdrawals, so access in the United States differs from earlier years.

Always confirm whether you are handling native IOTX on the IoTeX chain or a bridged representation on another network, since the two are not interchangeable at the address level.
