BlockchainsEcosystemsDAOs & MultisigsDeFi

Neo is a blockchain platform focused on enabling a smart economy through its dBFT consensus and two-token model. The platform recently launched Neo X, an EVM-compatible sidechain, expanding its developer-friendly ecosystem with advanced functionalities like anti-MEV protection and cross-chain interoperability. Neo’s ecosystem supports DeFi, digital identity solutions, and decentralized applications (dApps).

Explore Ecosystem

Overview

Neo, originally known as Antshares, is an open-source blockchain platform launched in 2014 and rebranded in 2017. The platform focuses on creating a “smart economy” by leveraging digital assets, digital identity, and smart contracts. Neo operates on a unique consensus mechanism called Delegated Byzantine Fault Tolerance (dBFT) 2.0, which allows for efficient transaction processing and is designed for enterprise-grade applications. Neo employs a two-token system: NEO, which represents ownership, and GAS, which is used for transactions and smart contract execution within the Neo ecosystem.

Key Features and Technology

Delegated Byzantine Fault Tolerance (dBFT) 2.0

Neo’s dBFT consensus model offers fast, scalable transactions, supporting up to 10,000 transactions per second under optimal conditions. The dBFT 2.0 version improves the network’s reliability by allowing consensus nodes to recover independently from issues like network connectivity problems. This consensus mechanism supports low-latency, high-throughput operations ideal for digital commerce and DeFi applications​​

Digital Identity with NeoID

Neo’s NeoID is a blockchain-based identity protocol enabling secure digital identities for individuals and entities. NeoID aims to enhance compliance, particularly for financial applications, by allowing regulatory validation. Through NeoID, real-world assets can be tokenized and tied to verified identities, providing a foundation for various applications, including asset-backed tokens and secure data management​

Neo N3 and Ecosystem Expansion

Neo’s major protocol upgrade, Neo N3, introduced numerous optimizations for smart contract development, enhanced governance features, and improved tokenomics. Neo N3 also facilitates interoperability, notably through Poly Network, an interoperability protocol connecting Neo with other blockchains, such as Ethereum, Binance Smart Chain, and Cosmos. This expansion supports a range of DeFi and dApp projects, as well as cross-chain asset swaps and interactions across multiple networks​

Neo X: EVM-Compatible Sidechain

In 2024, Neo launched Neo X, a sidechain compatible with the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM). This addition extends Neo’s ecosystem by providing developers with familiar tools for building decentralized applications. Neo X offers anti-MEV (Miner Extractable Value) protection and incorporates envelope transactions, making it highly suitable for high-value DeFi applications. Neo X also includes an integrated bridge that allows seamless asset transfers between Neo’s main N3 chain and the Neo X sidechain​

Neo X is supported by the Elevate Program, a $20-million fund designed to stimulate ecosystem growth. This program offers grants and investments to both early-stage and established projects that can contribute to the development of Neo X’s ecosystem. With commitments from over twenty projects, including Web3 infrastructure builders and dApp developers, Neo X aims to become a leading platform for innovative blockchain solutions​

Applications and Use Cases

DeFi and Decentralized Applications

Neo provides a robust environment for decentralized finance (DeFi) with tools for asset tokenization, lending, and decentralized exchange (DEX) functionality. Projects such as Flamingo Finance leverage Neo’s protocol to enable a range of DeFi services, including liquidity pooling and staking. The platform’s interoperability with other blockchain networks through Poly Network further strengthens its appeal to DeFi developers​

Digital Asset Management

Neo’s architecture supports digital asset creation and management with enhanced security and scalability. The platform’s dual-token model (NEO and GAS) and identity system (NeoID) enable asset registration, trading, and compliance-friendly asset handling. Neo’s dBFT consensus allows for fast, secure transactions, making it an ideal choice for digital assets and enterprise use cases​

Gaming and Web3 Integration

Neo’s ecosystem includes partnerships with gaming and Web3 companies looking to create decentralized applications. The Neo blockchain’s infrastructure, combined with Neo X’s EVM compatibility, provides game developers with the flexibility to build blockchain-based games that incorporate digital assets, such as non-fungible tokens (NFTs)​

Governance and Tokenomics

Neo operates a community-oriented governance model where NEO holders can participate in voting on protocol changes and other governance decisions. Neo’s tokenomics are structured to incentivize both developers and users through GAS rewards for staking and transaction fees. The governance process ensures decentralized decision-making while retaining performance and scalability through Neo’s limited number of consensus nodes
