Blockchain for The Smart Economy
What stood out in the meeting was the “Smart Economy” purpose that NEO tries to spread out which the team really supports as it is not just a digital currency but it can be implanted and find adaptation in real world different cases.
When the rebranding process was finished as to now NEO 2.0 from “Antshare” – the company behind the “Smart Economy” showed its aim of integrating digital identity, smart contracts and digitial assets in the platform. The new functions and features that were presented due this event are cross-chain protocol, quantum-resistant cryptography, a distributed storage protocol and a secure communication protocol:
“We hope the platform can be used for different front end scenarios, such as the Digital asset wallet, Forum, Voting, Profile management and Mobile applications. The platform also features an open API that can be used for integration with other systems.”
The Infrastructure
The Distributed Networks Architecture (DNA), or the consortium version of NEO includes more functions and “abilities” for institutional purposes but has the same architect and smart contract system as NEO. Blockchain solutions and services that are found based on DNA are delivered by the legal entity Onchain.
The not concentrated part of the system in market and profit of the whole team is NEO is pushed forward by the community by in contrary Onchain is for-profit and VC-backed side – According to Da Hongfei:
“In a crypto-world where even the slightest bit of news can send a coin skyrocketing or crashing, we do not focus on marketing or promotion, and have relied very much upon the developer community and word of mouth in technical terms. Our team is very tech-focused.”
What are the Plans and What Holds the Future
