Known For

Products

FIO Handle

A decentralized, customizable, and secure human-readable handle which replaces all public wallet addresses on all blockchains. It also serves as an NFT owned by the user which allows access to many features of the FIO Protocol.

Key Features:

Blockchain-Secured: Users maintain control over their digital identity.

Effortless Payments: Reduces the risk of lost funds.

Social Integration: Connects traditional web2 social media accounts with censorship-resistant identity.

Personalization: Can be paired with a custom FIO Domain for unique branding.

FIO Request

A censorship-resistant and encrypted request for crypto payment that can be sent between any two wallets for any token, ensuring error-free transactions similar to Venmo-style payment requests.

FIO Data

Censorship-resistant and encrypted metadata about a specific transaction on any blockchain, functioning like a check memo for crypto.

NFT Signature

On-chain attestation by the NFT owner that the signed NFT was created by the FIO Handle owner, which can also include the NFT hash to ensure it wasn’t altered.
