NEO
The team at NEO says the blockchain is up and running and and funds are safe, after reports of a chain split. Switcheo, a decentralized exchange on the NEO blockchain, was the first to report an unintentional fork on the network.
The situation remains fluid, but according to CoinNess, NEO says the network is producing blocks as usual. NEO confirmed an unintentional fork back in August, as reported by NEO News Today.
“Instead of a fork as they are conventionally understood in the blockchain community, NEO’s fork was instead caused by a rare issue in consensus where two valid blocks were proposed. If both blocks receive enough signatures from consensus nodes, this causes a single block fork. Although this did not actually stall consensus, it did create confusion amongst nodes as they became stuck on the conflicting block.”
Litecoin
Litecoin creator Charlie Lee says the seventh largest cryptocurrency by market cap will give users the option to send private, untraceable transactions.
According to Lee, the team at Litecoin plans to integrate private transactions this year.
The move will place Litecoin as a competitor to Monero and Zcash, the two leading privacy blockchains in the space.
