NEO
Neo ecosystem representatives spoke at Coin Telegraph’s conference, Epicenter, which focused on Web 3.0 and cryptocurrency. Neo co-founder Da Hongfei delivered an opening talk and Neo Global Development Zürich lead, Lili Zhao, delivered a keynote speech on Neo N3. Additionally, Flamingo Finance lead Odd Jørgen Røland participated on a panel alongside Zhao.
NGD Zürich lead Lili Zhao was interviewed by BeInCrypto at the WebSummit 2021 conference in Lisbon, Portugal. In the interview, Zhao discussed the Neo N3 migration and how N3 offers more features, scalability, efficiency, and a more developer-friendly environment than its competitors.
NGD accepted NekoHit into the N3 Early Adoption Program. NekoHit, conceptualized in the Neo Frontier Launchpad, aims to bring a crowdfunding model for content creators to the Neo ecosystem. The NekoHit platform is designed to connect content creators with individuals who can offer funding on a per-project basis instead of the subscription model used by other solutions such as Patreon. The NekoHit team is also developing a community DAO token called Nekoin. Nekoin will be used to vote on the direction of the platform, such as whether or not to allow creators to change project deadlines.
TranslateMe’s founder Ryan Lloyd joined NGD’s Neo Live AMA series to talk about the instant translation service provider. The AMA was conducted via video, and there is no transcript of the event.
