Neo Co-Founder Emphasizes Long-Term Development Amid Internal Dispute

According to BlockBeats, Neo co-founder Erik Zhang has urged renewed focus on the continuous development and long-term growth of Neo. Zhang is actively involved in the design and research of Neo 4 to ensure alignment with the project's roadmap. Efforts are also underway to advance ecosystem development and external collaborations, with a focus on application adoption, real-world assets, stablecoins, and cross-chain interoperability to translate protocol improvements into practical applications and sustainable growth. Zhang emphasized that short-term controversies will eventually fade, and the future of Neo will be determined by consistent delivery, active collaboration, and practical application. This statement follows a public fallout between Neo's two co-founders, with Da Hongfei accused of failing to fulfill financial disclosure commitments and Erik Zhang accused of monopolizing financial control within the foundation.
