REVIEW NOTES
Protocol review completed on December 05, 2022.
Protocol review completed on November 17, 2022.
Ecosystem score decreases due to decrease in documentation score and add-ons score
Add-ons score decreases due to Dapps adoption score not available.
Documentation score decreases due to decrease in API documentation, node setup and validator nodes score
Performance score increases due to availability of the performance matrix data.
Ecosystem score decreases with respect to Foundation tools score.
Data transfer from Protocol support to Add-ons, Hence score increased.
Foundation tools score decreases due to addition of doesn't exist programming language.

Overview
Consensus algorithms are the core of blockchain technology as they determine the scalability and security of blockchain platforms. There are various consensus algorithms like the Proof-of-Work and Proof-of-Stake that power blockchain networks by enabling them to reach consensus regarding transactions.
dBFT is one such consensus algorithm that supports the blockchain networks in combating unreliable participants throughout a network by establishing a modular and smart economy. It was built by the NEO platform and the mechanism of the NEO blockchain is completely based on the dBFT consensus algorithm. NEO blockchain is an Ethereum substitute of Chinese origin.
About NEO
NEO is an open-source and decentralized blockchain platform that is handled by a Chinese community. NEO powers helps automate and digitize the process of asset management through smart contracts. It includes several in-house components like oracles, decentralized storage and the domain name service to provide the groundwork for the next-gen Internet.
NEO is one of the pioneers in the blockchain space that has adopted a dual token model. It is also the first-ever blockchain platform to return the complete initial amount earned to the NEO participants at the time of its first token sale, as it had enough revenue to be self-sufficient.
NEO’s Architecture
NEO’s architecture consists of various management models
- Economic Model
- NEO blockchain has two unique native tokens namely NEO and GAS. The permission to operate on the network is granted by NEO which has approximately 100 million tokens. The NEO blockchain network charges for smart contracts' and tokens' storage and operation, providing benefits to all the consensus nodes and reducing resource abuse.
- Distribution Mechanism
- NEO’s 100 million native tokens are divided into two parts. The first half consists of 50 million tokens rewarded equally to all the NEO promoters at the time of campaigning. The second half comprises 50 million NEO tokens taken care of by the NEO Council to help NEO in its development and degradation.
- Governance Mechanism
- All the NEO token holders are the network owners and are free to administer the network via voting on the network and using GAS tokens for all the platform’s services.
NEO’s consensus algorithm
NEO blockchain network functions on the basis of the dBFT consensus algorithm. It is a Byzantine Fault-Tolerant consensus technique that powers the large-scale blockchain processes to be done via proxy voting. The owner of the NEO can then select the consensus node for voting. With the help of the Byzantine Fault Tolerant process, the chosen set of consensus nodes develop a consensus and produce fresh blocks. The process of voting on the NEO platform happens spontaneously without a pre-set schedule.
Key features of NEO
- Single block finality with dBFT consensus.
- In-built oracle for secure off-chain data access.
- Cross-chain interoperability.
- Dual token model.
- Community-run blockchain: By the people for the people.
