This is awesome. Is this still dependant on developers choosing to integrate this in their game or are there actual games being developed by the community that make use of this link between the two?

Great video about what is NEO.

NEO Lux was developed to provide an easy way to interact with Smart Contracts in the NEO blockchain using C#.

A full node is not necessary, but you can have one running locally and connect to it using NEO Lux.

hi,


i participated in the qlink ico and i didnt recive the qlink tokens.

Is it possible to store the qlink token in an empty neo (no neo no gas) wallet together with ledger nano s ? (version 0.0.9)

thx your very much, sry for my english

Why NEO is Much More than a “Chinese Ethereum”...

You can use instead of the NEO-GUI the NEON interface from their website: https://neo.org/download. Is lightweight and very easy to use, also it syncs in minutes.

Why the future may already be here with NEO

https://hackernoon.com/why-the-future-may-already-be-here-with-neo-824ba801a51b?source=email-48173bf313b4-1515243336230-digest.reader------1-6§ionName=top

Flexible Development Environment

Unlike Ethereum, which forces software developers to learn and use its own proprietary language (Solidity), NEO supports many different programming languages, including Java, C#, VN.Net, F#, Kotlin, and Python, with plans to support C, C++, Golang, and Javascript in the future.
NEO provides compilers and plug-ins for these languages, which are used to compile high-level languages ​​into instruction sets supported by NEO virtual machines. This makes the platform much more accessible to developers, allowing them to use programming languages that they are already familiar with.

Ingenious Consensus Method / No Forks

All blockchain platforms rely on consensus to prove that all transactions are valid. Bitcoin and many other projects (including Ethereum currently) use Proof of Work (PoW) methods, which basically require expending a lot of energy to solve complex mathematical problems.
Another common method is Proof of Stake (PoS). With this method, blockchain nodes are required to “stake” or allocate funds (denominated in the currency being used) to earn verification rewards. The big benefit of PoS, compared to PoW, is that much less energy is expended. It is more eco-friendly.
NEO utilizes a different consensus method called Delegated Byzantine Fault Tolerance (dBFT). You can read all about the mechanics of dBFD here, but the biggest benefit of that system is that it prevents code splits/forks. This is a huge plus, as we have all seen the controversy and drama associated with the numerous Bitcoin (and Ethereum) forks. This will lead to greater stability of the NEO platform.

Transaction Speed

Both Bitcoin and Ethereum suffer from slow (and expensive) transactions. Ethereum can handle about 15 transactions per second, while NEO can support over 10,000 transactions per second.
When Cryptokitties became a think recently, Ethereum struggled to keep up with demand.
They look innocent, but they took down Ethereum.

NEO is designed to handle mainstream apps like that as well and it is much better equipped for the future. To be fair to Ethereum, there are plans to improve performance in the future, but those plans are still not set in stone, with no near-term timeline for significant improvement.

Quantum Computer Proof

This one is really important. We are getting closer and closer to the time when quantum computers will be operational. And when they are, nearly every cryptocurrency will be vulnerable, because quantum computers may be able to break their cryptography. It’s important that every blockchain project is prepared as soon as possible for the future by using quantum-resistant cryptography.
NEO already does.

Dividends For NEO Holders

NEO coins represent ownership in the NEO platform. There will be a maximum of 100 million NEO coins and these coins represent shares in its blockchain. NEO owners have voting rights for important decisions related to the platform. They also receive recurring dividends in the form of GAS coins. GAS is used to pay for NEO transactions and the dividends received by NEO holders are generated by those transaction fees.
This is a unique, compelling model that incentivizes people to hold NEO.
Note: if you own NEO, make sure you own the wallet and/or that you can claim the GAS that you are earning. For instance, most exchanges will not allow you to claim your earned GAS (Binance being a lone exception).
I highly recommend the NEON wallet for NEO; it makes it very easy to see your current balances, in terms of NEO and GAS and to claim your GAS anytime you like.


Platform For ICOs

Ethereum has rightly gotten a lot of attention for its role in developing the booming ICO market in 2017. Hundreds of ICOs were deployed using Ethereum as the backbone for their tokens. The Ethereum ERC-20 token framework has been the biggest attraction for Ethereum overall and that standard is now accepted on nearly every exchange and most Ethereum-based wallets.

But NEO also allows projects to launch their own tokens/projects on its platform. The NEP 5 token standard is their ERC-20 equivalent. We’ve seen a couple of ICOs on NEO recently and now some templates/standards are popping up as well, such as the NEX ICO smart contract template.
You can expect a LOT more ICOs to running on NEO in 2018.

hi am little new to neon, why is the new wallet 0.0.9 not on the offical website?

This worked my NEO showed up thanks a lot, one more quick question if anyone has an Idea. When I open my wallet it gives me a notification saying that I should update my wallet file because Im guessing because it is from the old antshares wallet. But it also says if I update it, I won't be able to use it on the old wallet. When I click yes to update my wallet address doesn't show up but when I click no do not update my wallet address shows up anyone have an idea?

How long does it usually take for the NEO-GUI wallet to sync ? Mine's been syncing for several hours now, it's up to 0/84292/1763400.

Does anyone know why Bittrex's NEO wallet is offline?

"Wallet Offline - awaiting dev update"

The successes of NEO for the week look impressive. In fact, this is an expected phenomenon, along with the fact that the main crypto-currencies had to return most of the lost value. Although if we talk about NEO, quite popular now among speculators, the true long-term goal of the Alcoyne is not clear now.

but the biggest advantage of this system is that it prevents the code of splits / forks. This is a huge plus, as we all saw the controversy and drama associated with the numerous turns Bitcoin (and the Etherium). This will lead to greater stability of the NEO platform.

“New Kid On The Block?”

https://qoinbook.com/neo/

One of the first cryptocurrencies to come out of China, NEO used to be called Antshares until it rebranded in late 2017.

As one of the breakout crypto systems of 2017, many people have been questioning why it’s important and what it’s able to do.

And with its CEO & Founder (Da Hong Fei) even calling Bitcoin (& Blockchain) a bubble – stating that the recent rally on Bitcoin was a major boon for his own offering… but isn’t deluding himself into thinking everything is fine – he expects a sharp correction to happen in the new year.

The point of NEO is like many of the other cryptocurrencies – low barriers to entry have made it very easy for different people to create different coins, and NEO is no different.

The big deal with NEO is that it’s been called the “Ethereum of China” – a nod to its nature as a decentralized platform (rather than a singular set of functionality such as Bitcoin), the coin’s value is predominantly based on the idea that NEO could be utilized by the massive Chinese government (imagine all the SOE’s using it).

Regardless of whether people feel this is a worthy investment or not, it’s great to read about how developments are occurring in countries such as China. In this instance, NEO is representative of the new technology bubbling through to the surface. As such, it is a good indicator of the health of the Chinese market (the Japanese market is a different kettle of fish entirely).

What is NEO?

NEO is a development of a company called OnChain.

This is important. OnChain are a legitimate company registered in China, which puts them squarely in the enterprise category.

Simply, this means that rather than Bitcoin (which is based around a decentralized infrastructure), NEO is part of a growing brood of successful blockchain companies providing infrastructure development & management services for profit.

Such other crypto coins as Ripple and Stellar also operate this model (relatively successfully). This means that even before looking at the technology behind NEO, its intentions are relatively clear from the outset – to create commercial (or consumer) solutions which can be implemented with its own technology set (cryptocurrency).

Onchain was founded by CEO Da HongFei and CTO Erik Zhang to consolidate a lot of the press and interest garnered by their AntShares offering (this was the precursor to the NEO coin we see today).

Rather than the week-old startups releasing ill-conceived ICO’s (which almost always ended in disaster), the pair took 22 months of R&D to even begin providing services commercially. Whilst they already had a strong asset (their Antshares coin), their enterprise offering was wrapped around the OnChain company.

In April 2016, the company delivered China’s first whitepaper on consensus protocol (dBFT -delegated Byzantine Fault Tolerance).

In terms of technology, the NEO (and OnChain) offering is not overly different to others – specifically from the likes of Ripple or Stellar, with 3 major pieces of functionality:..........

NEO does not use Slack anymore, you can join the Discord here though: https://discord.gg/R9sZau7 I won't DM you since this information might be useful for others reading this.

No need, they already have plenty of community support. Hodlers can earn GAS simply by holding their NEO in a wallet then control.

Can anyone kind enough DM me invite links for the discord and slack channels? Thank you very much in advance.
Very bullish on NEO and GAS. GO GO GO 

Why NEO doesn't have referral or affiliate programme?

I truly believe in NEO

Especially ICOs APEX and NEX.
