IoTeX is a layer-1 blockchain built around connecting smart devices and real-world data to on-chain apps, which is why it is often grouped with DePIN projects. It is EVM-compatible, so Ethereum-style wallets and Solidity contracts work on it. The network relies on a delegated proof-of-stake design called Roll-DPoS, in which token holders back validators. The project's IoTeX 2.0 plans focus on infrastructure for decentralized physical networks.
The native token is IOTX. It pays gas for transactions, rewards validators, is staked to help secure the network, and can be used as DeFi collateral. Fees are paid in IOTX, so you need a small balance before using any app. Exact fee levels vary with network conditions, so check your wallet before confirming.
DeFi on IoTeX is small. Total value locked was about $1.4M at the time of writing. Native apps on our list include Bedrock uniIOTX for liquid staking, Mimo V2 and MinMax Finance for swaps and stablecoin pools, and the small farm ZoomSwap. ioTube is the main bridge to Ethereum, BNB Chain and Polygon, though it reportedly suffered an exploit in February 2026. Multi-chain names such as Avalon Finance, iZiSwap and Pell Network also appear on this page, along with the exchanges Gate and Gate US. Their large figures mostly reflect activity on other chains, not IoTeX.

Frequently asked questions
What is IoTeX used for?
IoTeX is a layer-1 blockchain that focuses on connecting smart devices and real-world data to on-chain applications, an area often called DePIN. It also runs ordinary DeFi apps such as DEXes, lending and staking.
What is the IOTX token used for?
IOTX is the native token. It pays transaction gas, rewards validators, is used for staking, and can serve as collateral in DeFi apps. You need a small amount of it to do anything on the chain.
Is IoTeX compatible with Ethereum tools?
Yes, IoTeX supports EVM-style smart contracts, so Ethereum-style wallets and tooling generally work with it. Always confirm the network details from official IoTeX sources before adding it to your wallet.
Which dApps are the biggest on IoTeX?
Among apps that run natively on IoTeX, our list includes Bedrock uniIOTX for liquid staking, Mimo V2 and MinMax Finance for swaps, and ZoomSwap for yield farming.
