Web3 innovation
What’s next? We’re already building it. There was an exclusive look at IO’s most forward-thinking ventures - from Bitcoin DeFi to a glimpse into the future with Quantum Hosky.
Decentralized.
United.
The next step forward starts now.
Thank you for joining us at Rare Evo 2025.
IO is pushing the boundaries of the art of the possible.
Attendees witnessed the next generation of blockchain growing in Las Vegas; meeting the team, exploring our demos, and collaborating with us to architect the future.
Live demos
Interoperability. Scalability. Openness. The pillars shaping our products and services to drive real impact across the industry were in attendance - including the architects and builders themselves.
Build connections
Rare Evo isn't simply another conference. It's where decentralized worlds come together; designed for collaboration and discovery.
We offered exclusive insights into some of our exciting ventures, products, and concepts. Here are some of the highlights from the conference:
Lace
Lace is where Web3 comes to life. It’s more than just a wallet, it’s the place where you can participate in community-driven decisions all the while accessing new ecosystems.
Bitcoin DeFi
You can put your Bitcoin to work with DeFi. And all with a simple toggle. You can lend, swap and trade your BTC, Ordinals and UTxOs, and more, without relinquishing control.
Midnight
Midnight, a protocol technology developed by IO, can put you in control of your personal data by powering privacy-enhancing innovation. It's the proof that blockchains can in fact keep a secret.
Quantum Hosky
Quantum computing. Dish brains. Artificial intelligence. EEG headsets. How far can we go? Find out more about everything coming soon from IO.
Partner Chains
Our toolkit unlocks new possibilities, it’s all about the places where ecosystems intersect rather than diverge.
