Blockchain is the trending topic now-a-days due to its decentralized and security feature. Internet usage on the other hand is increasing rapidly along with the increase in threats and attacks. The Internet of Things, or IoT, is the arrangement of billions of physical devices around the world that are connected to the internet for the purpose of collecting and sharing data, worldwide. IoT appliances and devices are the boom in the technology but the biggest concern in IoT devices is its security. A lot of attacks are discussed on IoT. Existing technologies are not enough to secure the IoT devices completely. BIoT or Blockchain IoT is the mechanism of using security feature of Blockchain in IoT to make it more secure and vulnerable to communication attacks. In this paper we have discussed the basics of Blockchain, IoT and How various work have been varied out on BIoT
