NKN core team on Binance AMA series

On March 25th 2:00PM UTC,, three NKN  founders made a 120-minute AMA in the Binance Official English Telegram group, which has almost 200,000 subscribed members. During the AMA, we shared in depth our grand vision, strategy and plans on ,  becoming the last puzzle to complete the foundation of Web 3.0. 

We’re happily overwhelmed by the enthusiasm and outpouring of questions upon us in the last sections, and it further strengthens our determination to complete our mission as the long-waited networking infrastructure for the New Internet Era.

If you missed our AMA, fret not. You can find the highlight here.

Why do billions of nodes matter? Why is NKN the indispensable networking foundation for web 3.0?

At the end of March, we reached an all-time high of over 45,000 full consensus nodes on NKN mainnet. A new record that further consolidates NKN’s firm position as the largest blockchain network (in terms of full consensus nodes) in the whole world. 

And of course, a great question arises: what does it mean and why does billions of nodes matter? You can find NKN’s grand vision here in our Official Blog:
