Introduction to Neo


Neo (formerly Antshares) is an open-source decentralized blockchain decentralized application platform founded in 2014 by Da HongFei and Erik Zhang. Since its rebranding to Neo from Antshares in 2017, the project's vision is to realize a "smart economy" by utilizing blockchain technology and smart contracts to issue and manage digitized assets.


It is the most feature-complete blockchain platform for building decentralized applications. Neo enables developers to digitize and automate the management of assets through smart contracts. It also provides powerful native infrastructures such as decentralized storage, oracles, and domain name service, creating a solid foundation for the Next-Gen Internet.



NEO's Smart Contract System


The Neo Smart Contract 2.0 includes the following features: certainty, high performance, and expandability. The contract types include: validation contracts, function contracts, and application contracts.


From the performance point of view, Neo uses the lightweight NeoVM (Neo Virtual Machine) as its intelligent contract execution environment. It starts very fast and takes up a small amount of resources and is suitable for smart contracts such as short procedures. Static compilation and caching of hotspot contracts can be significantly enhanced by JIT (real-time compiler) technology.


Neo Smart Contract 2.0 achieves a scalable approach through a combination of high concurrency and dynamic partitioning, combined with its low-coupling design. The low coupling contract procedure is executed in a virtual machine (Neo virtual machine) and communicates with the outside through the interactive service layer.


The NeoContract smart contract system is the biggest feature of the seamless integration


NEO's Digital Identity System


Neo is the use of blockchain technology and digital identity to digitize assets, the use of smart contracts for digital assets to be self-managed, to achieve "smart economy" with a distributed network.


Digital Assets


Digital assets are programmable assets that exist in the form of electronic data. With blockchain technology, the digitization of assets can be decentralized, trustful, traceable, highly transparent, and free of intermediaries.



NEO's Consensus Algorithm


A blockchain system is advantageous over a traditional centralized ledger system for its full-openness,immutability and anti-multiple-spend characters, and it does not rely on any kind of trusted third-party.


However, like all distributed systems, blockchain systems are challenged with network latency, transmission errors, software bugs, security loopholes and black-hat hacker threats.

The blockchain technology was originally proposed by Satoshi Nakamoto in a cryptography mailing list, i.e. the Bitcoin.



Reason You Should Invest On Neo


NEO offers traders an opportunity to expand and balance their crypto portfolios. Crucially, it has been created to work with Chinese regulations, rather than against them. Therefore, NEO could be considered a hedging option against Bitcoin, which has been cracked down upon in China in the past.


Global trading and investment platform eToro, which specializes in cryptocurrency trading and has a nine-million-strong online community, has produced a short educational video about the rise of NEO.

The motto at eToro, which offers a raft of other top cryptos to trade or buy outright, and has made NEO available since February 2018, is: “Cryptos Needn’t Be Cryptic.”

The cornerstone of our efforts is NEO 3.0, which will be a robust blockchain implementation with high throughput, enhanced stability and security, an optimized smart contract system, and a feature-packed infrastructure set for diverse business application scenarios.


Pink Paper


Pink Paper is the Golden Standard for decentralized content publishing, through which your content will not only be available throughout the existence of the digital space, but at the same time the only person who will retain ownership of the content is you.

Pink Paper founder and CEO Rupin Mathur joined the Neo Live AMA series to discuss the decentralized content publishing platform. Participants in the AMA shared rewards from a prize pool comprising ten Pink Panda NFTs.

Pink paper allows individuals and communities to publish blog-based content while retaining complete ownership.
