What is Iostoken?
Iostoken (IOST) is a decentralised blockchain platform launched in 2018 by the Singapore-based IOST Foundation. It was built to tackle the scalability limits of earlier networks, aiming to deliver enterprise-grade performance while keeping decentralisation and security intact.
The network runs on a consensus mechanism called Proof of Believability, which blends stake-based validation with a reputation score for each participant. This design lets IOST process up to 8,000 transactions per second while using very little energy, which suits decentralised applications, smart contracts and business systems across sectors such as gaming, finance and supply chain.
IOST also ships with a JavaScript-compatible smart contract environment, so developers can build on it using familiar tools, and its multi-layered architecture supports sharding for extra capacity. Token holders can stake IOST and vote on network proposals, taking part in how the ecosystem is run.

FAQ
Buying Iostoken: FAQs
What is the minimum amount of IOST I can buy?
You can start with a small amount, since there is no large minimum to buy Iostoken on Digital Surge. Many people begin with a modest AUD deposit by PayID to get familiar with the platform, then top up later once they are comfortable placing an order at the live price.

Can I sell my Iostoken and cash out to AUD later?
Yes. When you want to exit, you can sell your IOST back to Australian dollars on Digital Surge and withdraw the AUD to your linked bank account. There is no lock-in, so you decide when to sell, and the amount you receive follows the live IOST price at that moment.
What is Proof of Believability and why does it matter?
Proof of Believability is the consensus method behind IOST. It selects validators using both their token holdings and a reputation score based on past contribution, rather than stake alone. The result is a network that can process up to 8,000 transactions per second at low cost, which is what makes IOST fast to use.
What can I do with IOST once I own it?
You can hold IOST in your Digital Surge wallet, or move it to a self-custody wallet you control. On the IOST network itself, holders can stake their tokens to help secure the chain and vote on network proposals, taking an active part in how the ecosystem is governed.
