The vision of the ICON Project is to redefine the meaning of communities, and in doing so, introduce
an era of decentralization. We envision creating a new world by connecting such communities.
Communities today are commonly defined by its social and political functions and limited to the
economic boundaries set forth by nation states. Through ICON, communities can go beyond and be
free from traditional economic system and promote frictionless value exchanges with other communities,
eventually resulting in maximum total utility of society. ICON is not limited to the real world, but it directly
connects and communicates with the crypto world creating the most robust network that can scale
without limits.
The ICON Project aims to build a decentralized network that allows independent blockchains with
different governances to transact with one another without intermediaries. Anyone can create a new
blockchain project and join the network. A new blockchain project is free to connect with existing projects
and create new unique worlds, or blockchain multiverse. ICON itself can be viewed as both a living
organism and an ecosystem.
ICON is a vision with a proven track record and has progressed beyond the initial concept stage. ICON
already boasts communities comprised of reputable institutions β banks, securities, insurance, hospitals,
universities, and more. A future with faster money remittance and frictionless value exchange of
securities, medical records, academic data, insurance fees is within our reach.
With ICON, we now enter into a world of true hyperconnectivity
