On October 23, the digital certificate service "A trust" based on the #IOST mainnet was officially launched at the Tokyo Web3 Center - Shibuya Centrum. The event gathered many enthusiasts and professionals in the Web3 field, creating a lively atmosphere.

"A trust" is not a new face; it was developed by a large Japanese enterprise in 2019, originally running on a clone of IOST in a private environment. After years of accumulation, the project was taken over and successfully migrated to IOST mainnet by Cabinet Company (CEO: Mr. Ishida) in October 2024. Currently, it has issued over 37,000 digital certificates to multiple clients, including major Japanese enterprises, and its influence in the digital certificate field is growing day by day.

During the event, a member of the developer community AIYAA, who has been operating an IOST node since 2019, detailed the advantages of IOST blockchain's consensus algorithm and transaction fee structure (Gas fees). AIYAA's explanation was comprehensive, allowing the audience to gain a deeper understanding of the IOST ecosystem.

Subsequently, Ms. Tanigawa from OKJ (formerly OKCoin Japan) shared that since introducing IOST tokens in 2021, OKJ accounts have exploded in growth. OKJ is a Japanese FSA licensed exchange and the largest network node in the IOST ecosystem, providing liquidity to about 70% of domestic competitors.

Finally, Mr. Ishida from A trust's operating company - Cabinet expressed his outlook on the future development of A trust. He stated that he hopes A trust can add value to digital content and achieve broader application in the digital and high-end markets, providing users with safer, more efficient, and convenient digital certificate services.

Currently, a Japanese company is migrating A trust service using IOST algorithm from a private environment to the mainnet, indicating that IOST is a Web3 blockchain operating system with enterprise competitiveness. As the IOST ecosystem continues to develop, A trust is expected to play a greater role in the future, providing users with safer, more efficient, and convenient digital certificate services, promoting the development of the digital economy and digital society.

Goals

Achieve horizontal scalability and high throughput through the design of the POB consensus mechanism and second-layer scaling solutions. Provide a platform for third-party developers, creators, and enterprises to realize value through effective ways of developing the community's own network.

Principles

Improve transaction performance without sacrificing the key attribute of decentralization, namely: protecting privacy, open participation, and community immunity from malicious attacks. IOST is more decentralized than EOS based on the DPOS mechanism and more scalable than ETH smart contract platforms.
