What is Irys?
Irys is the only provenance layer. It enables users to scale permanent data and precisely attribute its origin. By tracing and verifying where data comes from, Irys paves the way to incorporate accountability into all information.
Irys is the only provenance layer
What is provenance?
Provenance is the trail of documentation that accounts for the origin of a piece of data. The main attributes of provenance are timestamps, attribution, authorship, and, in some cases, ownership.
What is a provenance layer?
A provenance layer acts as a ledger of record for digital information, tracking the origins and modifications of data. Data on a provenance layer must be permanent, precise, and unconstrained.
Solving the Provenance Trilemma
Irys has become the only solution to the Provenance Trilemma by ensuring that data on it is permanent, precise, and unconstrained.
Irys enables strong provenance.
Data with strong provenance is permanent, precise, and unconstrained
Permanent
Guaranteed data retrieval, forever. Permanent data is fault-tolerant, tamperproof, and paid-for.
Precise
Granular timestamps attributed to the data. Verifiable and trust-minimized.
Unconstrained
Allows anyone to read, write, or verify provenance without any limits on throughput.
