Review on Neo by Bert Harper

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Neo project review.

Neo is a non-profit community driven blockchain project that utilizes smart contracts and digital identity technology to manage digital assets. It uses a distributed network with the aim to create a Smart Economy.
ο»Ώ
The maximum supply is 100 million NEO coins with 65 million currently in circulation. The maximum supply is expected to be reached within 4 years.
ο»Ώ
The development resources were provided by the founder Da Hongfei and Erik Zhang, which later founded Onchain to provide the blockchain with consulting services.
ο»Ώ
NEO holds a lot of potential and because of this it is a great investment option when compared to other cryptocurrencies. This whole year has been great for the NEO network.
ο»Ώ
NEO blockchain is a decentralized peer-to-peer network that is community driven. The consensus mechanism that it uses is called delegated Byzantine Fault Tolerance (dBFT), which can support up to 10,000 transactions per second.
ο»Ώ
In order to achieve such lightning fast consensus, book keeping nodes are selected in a random manner to validate transactions based on overlapping networks of trust in a similar manner to Stellar. Systems that adopt dBFT cannot fork into two separate chains as the network relies on a 2 out of 3 majority rule to operate.

Pros
  • NEO has been getting even more security from regulators, making it one of the main features of the network.
  • Passive income ~ it is gained by just holding NEO in GAS tokens and an airdrop is coming soon
  • Trading counterpart ~ Binance started and will expand the list of NEP-5 tokens for which NEO will be a trading counterpart
Cons
  • Main & biggest drawback of NEO is its slow synchronization with the wallet.
  • As the project is based in China, there are some regulatory uncertainties and concerns and its Unfriendly interface
