What is NEO

NEO is a blockchain platform and cryptocurrency that is designed to digitize assets using smart contracts, one goal is to bring blockchain technology to popularity.

It supports common programming languages such as Javascript and C++, with improvements in its technology making it less vulnerable to hacker attacks. NEO’s goal is to become the No. 1 blockchain project by 2020.

The NEO coin was originally launched as Antshares by Da Hongfei. It was in June 2017 that Antshares was rebranded as NEO.

NEO has an active development team, with both internal developers responsible for developing the platform and a strong community of external developers who will then develop the decentralized applications (DApps).

NEO is a unique blockchain algorithm supporting decentralized trading, identification and digitization of various assets.

It integrates blockchain technology with digital identity, creating ways for physical assets, such as money or company shares, to be digitized and exchanged over the NEO network in a peer-to-peer method.
NEO aims to build a platform on which other decentralized applications can be built, allowing users to execute smart contracts on their blockchain, thereby increasing the spread of blockchain technology.
