IRYS – THE FIRST PROGRAMMABLE DATACHAIN

Summary from the TLDR Crypto newsletter

Irys was initially a scaling solution for Arweave, helping it process 90% of its transactions and data. The Irys L1 chain will optimize for storage and computation and support both onchain and temporary data. It aims to be the primary data infrastructure protocol for the onchain world. Irys will allow smart contracts to directly interact with onchain data in real-time, expanding the potential of dapps and making blockspace more useful.
