General Updates
Neo announced it will be at Consensus Hong Kong, which runs Feb. 18 to 20, as the first expansion of the long-running Consensus conference to the East. Neo has maintained a presence at Consensus for several years, often incorporating interactive elements to engage attendees with real on-chain applications. At past events in Austin, Neo introduced a chest game in 2022, OneBand NFT rings in 2023, and a scavenger hunt in 2024. Additionally, Flamingo Finance, COZ, and AxLabs shared that their teams will also be at Consensus Hong Kong.
Neo established a partnership with Web3 launchpad Coin Terminal, with the engagement aimed at onboarding projects into the Neo ecosystem. Through this collaboration, Neo intends to leverage Coin Terminal’s network to attract innovative projects, particularly in AI Agents and DeFi, into Neo’s EVM-compatible sidechain, Neo X, and potentially Neo N3 into the Neo ecosystem.
Flamingo Finance announced the forthcoming launch of OrderBook+ 2.0 and FLOCKS, with deployment tentatively scheduled for March 3. The team also introduced an in-house oracle that will support both new features. Additionally, Flamingo launched a mini TestNet trading competition for RC 20, where the first 100 registrants can participate for a share of 65 GAS in rewards.
Meme2Earn released a recording of the January Community Fireplace, where the team burnt a large portion of the total NUDES NEP-17 token supply. Meme2Earn will host the next Community Fireplace on Tuesday, Feb. 25, on its official Discord server.
Nichome concluded Izakaya Season 1, which gave users the first opportunity to earn GAS rewards and other future opportunities by interacting with Neo X projects. During Season 1, users earned X Credits by checking in daily, engaging with Nichome’s social channels, completing swaps on the Carrot Swap platform, and following partner projects. The team intends to launch a Season 2.
NeoDashboard launched a new vote asking users if a portion of the NDMEME token should be bridged from Neo X to Neo N3. The vote is live and concludes on Feb. 21 at 12:00 p.m. (UTC).
GrantShares proposal Neo Dashboard of Alphaday passed with three votes in favor, one vote in abstinence, and four votes that didn’t participate.
Frank Coin hosted a GasBot trivia contest on the NeoF1 Discord server and distributed 3 GAS in rewards to participants. Additionally, Frank Coin joined a Neo community member’s Space to talk about the World of Elements game.
Developer Updates
Neo SPCC released NeoGo v0.108.0, which is compatible with the C# node 3.7.6 and includes new RPC extensions and various fixes and improvements. Notable features include the “Designation” event in RoleManagement, base64Url encoding and decoding support, and Neo candidate registration via NEP-27 payment. Users are recommended to review their configurations for NeoFS synchronization options and note that old containers will eventually be deleted, although this won’t break synchronization.
NNT Catch Up
NNT released Episode 83 of The Smart Economy Podcast featuring Eli Cohen, the general counsel at Centrifuge, a platform for tokenized real-world assets. Topics of discussion include the evolution from traditional finance to tokenized assets, how T-Bills are being brought on-chain, building regulatory-compliant RWA infrastructure, designing DAO governance for financial protocols, the future of on-chain institutional asset management, how Centrifuge aims to create efficient securitization processes, and much more.
NNT editors co-hosted Crypto Coffee and Blockchain Beer Spaces #50 on the official The Smart Economy Podcast X account. Topics of discussion included Neo at Consensus HK and the gathering of the Neo dev community afterward, the upcoming launch of Flamingo Finance’s OrderBook+ v2 and FLOCKS single-sided staking token, the Ethereum Foundation contributing 50k ETH into various DeFi projects, on-chain RWAs via Centrifuge, and upcoming events at ETH Denver 2025.
In Case You Missed It
Forthewin Network announced a merger with TOTHEMOON and a shift in focus toward development on the Base blockchain. The team cites a desire to scale operations and remain competitive in the decentralized landscape as the driving factors behind the move. As part of the transition, NEP token holders will see their holdings merged into TTM at a 50% ratio, with 1,000 NEP equating to 500 TTM. While most FTW products on Neo are decentralized and require minimal upkeep, active development on these platforms will be phased out. The FTW team has also completed a large-scale token burn. A total of 70,706,341.27 NEP has been removed from circulation.
