Iota EVM


Iota EVM API is available on Web3 API platform.

Iota EVM is a Layer 2 solution that operates on top of the Iota Mainnet. It is part of the broader Iota Smart Contracts (ISC) framework, which provides smart contract functionality on Iota. It leverages the Iota Tangle's scalability and security while providing an environment for running decentralized applications (dApps).

In order for your Web3 application to interact with Iota EVM — either by reading blockchain data or sending transactions to the network — it must connect to an Iota EVM node. Developers interact with the blockchain using the methods provided by the API.

The API interaction follows the JSON-RPC which is a stateless, light-weight remote procedure call (RPC) protocol. It defines several data structures and the rules around their processing. It is transport agnostic in that the concepts can be used within the same process, over sockets, over HTTP, or in other message-passing environments. It uses JSON (RFC 4627) as data format.
