Engaging with the Global Blockchain Community
We were recently in New York City at NFT.NYC, where Blockchain Wayne highlighted the integration of NFTs in businesses beyond the crypto sphere, showcasing the broad potential of blockchain technology. Marie Grig and Blockchain Wayne also represented FIO at TOKEN2049 in Dubai, connecting with leading voices in the crypto world. These events were crucial for networking with industry leaders and sharing insights about FIO Protocol’s innovations.
Innovations and Updates
We rolled out the FIO App Release v1.22, enhancing the protocol to make crypto interactions smoother for everyone. This update underscores our commitment to continuous improvement and ease of use in the crypto space.
Educational Insights on Cryptocurrency
In an effort to demystify cryptocurrency further, Blockchain Wayne broke down the concept of Bitcoin halving in the latest episode of our podcast, ‘From No Crypto To Know Crypto’. This episode is essential for anyone looking to understand the dynamics of cryptocurrency supply.

The protocol, built on the FIO Chain, a dPoS blockchain, serves as an open-source, decentralized usability layer solution that works across all blockchains.
