View ChartIRIS Chain (IRC) is a biometric data-based, personalised smart healthcare blockchain service built around the belief that "We make the world safer and healthier through the eyes." The project combines AI-powered iris recognition with blockchain-based data integrity to support preventive health monitoring, personalised wellness guidance, and decentralised identity. By using iris recognition technology, IRIS Chain enables users to measure, prevent, and manage their health throughout their lifetime. Sensitive personal medical information is securely converted into blockchain data to eliminate concerns about privacy breaches.
The project addresses a practical gap in preventive care: before visiting a hospital, people often rely on subjective health surveys rather than objective pre-screening. Genetic analysis and blood testing, while valuable, are often costly, time-consuming, and inconvenient for non-patients. IRIS Chain offers a convenient, AI-driven alternative where users take iris photos, receive AI-based health analysis, and get personalised recommendations for diet and exercise.
IRC is the native token of the ecosystem. It has a total and maximum supply of 2,000,000,000 IRC. The token operates on BNB Smart Chain as a BEP-20 asset, following a migration from an earlier contract on Polygon PoS. IRIS Chain operates its own mainnet, allowing independent IRIS verification, while the IRC token itself is issued as a BEP-20 asset on BNB Smart Chain.
Contract migration note: IRIS Chain (IRC) has migrated to a new contract on BSC. The new contract is 0x5838bb6e87d7777dcff809befb696103326f1634, replacing the old contract on Polygon PoS 0xf9a3e803ed270cf0cA6CD76eA40b8CC8562CF93F. The migration ratio is 1:1, and total and maximum supply remain unchanged at 2,000,000,000 IRC. According to the project, the migration was designed to improve network compatibility, exchange integration, liquidity operations and long-term ecosystem scalability. CoinMarketCap has not verified the project's self-reported circulating supply of 2,101,100 IRC; its registry lists circulating supply as 0.
According to a Dealroom.co venture-backed company profile, Sakamoto Taro is involved in building the AI platform, Mr. Yeom is described as an AI expert and Matsuoka Hideo as a finance expert; these roles are not independently confirmed. The project maintains a LinkedIn company page at linkedin.com/company/iris-chain. According to its Dealroom company profile, IRIS Chain was founded in 2022 and raised $20 million in a Series A round in March 2023 led by Black Diamond to support global expansion and technology development.
IRIS Chain employs proprietary iris analysis technology and machine learning to precisely predict and manage customers' health. The technology does not merely provide one-time information but supports continuous monitoring and additional services to help users proactively manage their well-being. Users take iris photos, which are processed by AI to generate health analysis and personalised recommendations for diet and exercise.
Securely stored health data is maintained as blockchain records, offering enhanced security benefits and protecting sensitive medical information from privacy breaches. As a provider of iris-based technology, the project develops secure platforms ranging from software and hardware-based iris recognition security solutions to IoT-based AI iris health management solutions. The project describes a subsidiary named Watch that delivers AI digital health solutions; no independent corporate record of this entity is cited.
IRIS Chain operates its own mainnet, allowing independent IRIS verification, while the IRC token is issued as a BEP-20 asset on BNB Smart Chain.
IRIS Chain's core differentiator is the fusion of biometric iris recognition with AI-driven health analysis and blockchain-based data integrity. The human iris contains valuable health information, and by leveraging iris recognition, the platform enables users to measure, prevent, and manage health throughout their lifetime. This positions the project at the intersection of two growing sectors: artificial intelligence and healthcare.
Unlike genetic analysis or blood testing, which can be costly, time-consuming, and inconvenient for preventive care, IRIS Chain offers a convenient, AI-driven service accessible to non-patients. According to the project's own description, the service is deployed in multiple countries and used in government agencies, hospitals, nursing homes and public health centres; no independent confirmation of these deployments is publicly available. The project states that its underlying technology stack is proprietary. The platform's subscription-based, reward-driven model integrates iris-based health diagnostics with DeFi mechanisms, creating a unique ecosystem where both users and the platform benefit.
IRC powers the IRIS Chain ecosystem through a daily iris-based mining service. The platform offers customers one mining opportunity per day through a subscription service. The IRIS platform establishes an easy-to-use economic structure that enables anyone to mine tokens effortlessly while simultaneously managing their health. Users who participate receive IRIS tokens free of charge, becoming active members of the IRIS ecosystem.
Customers who provide and use health data receive token rewards, fostering an ecosystem where both users and the platform benefit. The project describes the IRC economy as a subscription-based, reward-driven model that integrates iris-based health diagnostics with DeFi mechanisms. In essence, IRC functions as both a utility and reward token tied to health data participation and preventive care services.
The project continues to develop secure platforms spanning software and hardware-based iris recognition security solutions to IoT-based AI iris health management solutions.
The project publishes a GitHub organisation at github.com/IRISCHAIN and communicates through its official X account. Trading activity in IRC is limited, and liquidity conditions can affect execution and slippage; check current market data before trading. The project has completed a contract migration to BNB Smart Chain, replacing its earlier Polygon PoS contract. Community resources include a LinkedIn presence and a "Claim Community Badge" option on CoinMarketCap. IRC was listed on CoinMarketCap on 30 June 2025 and carries a DEX Mode designation on the platform.
IRC is not produced by proof-of-work mining. According to the project, subscribers receive one "mining" opportunity per day and are allocated IRC tokens free of charge, with rewards drawn from the project's own token holdings under a subscription-based, reward-driven model rather than from block rewards.
Additionally, customers who provide and use health data receive token rewards, creating a reward-driven model that incentivises participation in preventive health monitoring. This subscription-based approach integrates iris-based health diagnostics with DeFi mechanisms, distinguishing IRC's distribution model from conventional mining or staking systems. Users interested in participating should refer to the official website and whitepaper for current subscription details and eligibility requirements.
Because IRC is a BEP-20 token on BNB Smart Chain, it can be stored in wallets that support BEP-20 assets. Users should always verify the official contract address (0x5838bb6e87d7777dcff809befb696103326f1634) before sending or receiving tokens, as the project previously migrated from an older contract on Polygon PoS and fake contracts may exist.
Best practices include using hardware wallets for significant holdings, never sharing private keys or seed phrases, and double-checking addresses before transactions. Given the project's low liquidity and limited trading volume, users should be especially cautious of slippage and abnormal price fluctuations.
