Welcome to the Ion wiki!
Ion (Inter-operability network) is an inter-operability framework currently designed for the EVM with a focus on permissioned chains.
Ion Stage 1 explored cross-chain atomic swaps, providing a proof of concept of a working atomic swap of ERC-223 Tokens across two separate Ethereum blockchains. In particular focus was put on the limitations of cross-chain atomic swaps more details can be found in the wiki or a blog post here.
Our current project, Ion Stage 2, separates the cross chain payment use case from the interoperability solution. Focus has moved away from pure atomic exchange of value across chains, towards a mechanism to prove state across chains. This facilitates interoperability on a much larger scale than simply value transactions.
The goal for Ion is to perform a transfer of value transaction across different turing-complete blockchains. Please feel free to contribute to any aspect of the project in any way.
