April almost ends. It has just been a month since I wrote something to you last time. In that article, I made some promises before, like finishing the NT cross-chain work, establishing the community feedback mechanism, and being in the community regularly. And all of them were realized.
Things started to change, right?
The most important and huge thing we did in April was our Hackathon. We have invited more than 50 well-known institutions, crypto VCs, GameFi projects, and communities to be partnered with Hackathon and build connections with NEXTYPE.
So far, our Hackathon is going well, and we will end the registration stage 2 days later. We have received more than 50 applications, which will be NEXTYPE ecological partners in the future to flourish our platform.
We have held 2 YouTube Lives with more than 10,000 views to introduce this Hackathon and invited the guests from our sponsors, VC partners, and well-known GameFi projects to attend and share.
Here are the replays of the Lives: Day 1: https://youtu.be/akLHfYiArl4 Day 2: https://youtu.be/X0RE8y-eCOc
Besides, to encourage our users to participate in the Hackathon, the GiftBox-Learn&Earn event was launched with some excellent GameFi startups. You could earn $13,000 rewards provided by six entries through learning the projects.
Through this Hackathon, we have connected with so many top-tier partners and GameFi startups, and it will solidify our position as a distribution platform.
Above is a brief summary of the Hackathon. I hope you know something about it cause I think it is a significant move for us.
OK. Let’s talk about our communities’ feedback and suggestions. We have received hundreds of forms since it was released, and I have read them carefully one by one. Our users are primarily concerned about the following points:
$NT Performance.
They suggest listing NT on more exchanges and burning more NT. Actually, we have contacted several top exchanges, but it is not a perfect time to list NT as the whole market is not very bullish. Regarding the NT burning, we will launch our DAO mechanism in May. Until then, you can make the decision on how and how many NT should be burned.
In-Game Optimization.
They provide many suggestions about this aspect, including adjusting the amount of NT-L for Mining Machine upgrading, adding the lottery gameplay, designing NFT synthesis, etc. I have shared all these with our game research and development team, and they replied that the mechanisms and gameplays in MiningTycoon will be optimized and updated gradually. The mining pools will also be modified to decrease the output and match the NT circulation.
Another internal news is that the development of long-waited NEO Fantasy is almost over. We expect the Alpha version will be launched in early June.
We selected some addresses that offered valuable and considered suggestions here, and all of them will win an NFT reward:

By the way, the feedback link is still open: https://forms.gle/KSZVNYvnfMNEgWd57
If you have any suggestions or advice, please leave them to us anytime.
I think that is all about our work in April. May is the middle of the year. We will be prepared in May to embrace the next half year of 2022.
