The team at NEO is working to clear up concern and confusion after whale watchers spotted a transfer of 29,461,168 NEO worth $326 million – which is nearly half of all NEO in existence.

The crypto was moved back to its original account four minutes later, leaving Crypto Twitter wondering just what the China-based smart contract platform is up to.

Several hours later, the team at the NEO Foundation, which owns half of the total supply of NEO, released a statement saying the transfer was routine and planned in advance.

“On May 23rd, NF transferred 5,538,832 newly unlocked NEO to the unlocked address. The remaining 29,461,168 NEO were first sent to a change address before being transferred back to the locked address. This was done to differentiate the transactions for the community’s reference.

NF would like to reiterate that, as noted in the White Paper, the newly unlocked NEO will not be sold on exchanges. These funds are used to build the NEO ecosystem and support the growth of the community. An article detailing EcoBoost and how these funds are used will be released in the near future.”

?Notice: #NEO Foundation unlocks 5,530,000 $NEO as planned. These funds are used to build the NEO ecosystem and support the growth of the community. #EcoBoost #DEVcommunity
