An IOU (I Owe You) is a digital debt instrument on blockchain that represents a tokenized promise to repay a debt. These blockchain-based debt certificates enable creditor-debtor relationships to function without traditional financial intermediaries, operating through smart contracts in the DeFi (Decentralized Finance) ecosystem. IOUs provide alternative liquidity mechanisms for cryptocurrency holders through automated execution and settlement of debt obligations.
