Some call NEO the “Ethereum of China”. But there’s more to it than that. In this introductory course, we’ll take a look at NEO and how its founder Da Hongfei envisions its framework. NEO has an interesting outlook that aims to digitalize almost every asset class conceived of. We’ll also give a cursory look at NEO’s corporate background, DApps, two token system and wallets. We’ll also go briefly into NEO’s parent company, Onchain.

The course includes a keynote by NEO founder Da Hongfei at Section 1.2. We felt that that the video gives a very good overview of the overall vision that the project aims to attain. The course also includes a short video tutorial on how to set up a Neon Wallet at Section 1.5. At the end of this course, students are expected to have a basic overview that will familiarize him about the NEO Smart Economy. Unlike Ethereum, NEO was designed to make it easy to create smart contracts that are programmable using mainstream programming languages.

We recommend that you take the Free BitcoinHomework course Ethereum 101 to have a point of reference. It’s also recommended but not necessary to take Cryptocurrency Vocabulary to have a cursory understanding of the terms that could be used.
