If you don\u2019t plan on hiring more developers then why\u00a0not?<\/h4>\n<p>In the long term, what works best is to build the open source community that can both contribute and help others build dApps on top of NKN. However, in the short term, we will build our own dApps to kickstart the ecosystem and to show the value of our platform. We hope this will attract more developers and users to NKN and further encourage the growth of the ecosystem.<\/p>\n<h4>Question #8:<\/h4>\n<h4>How is Yanbo doing? We hear from much of the team but it seems as if he likes being behind the\u00a0scenes.<\/h4>\n<p>Yanbo enjoys working behind the scenes. Most of his time is working on product management as well as interacting with NKN Chinese community on Telegram and WeChat. He also works closely with the R&amp;D team to build and deliver NKN\u2019s software infrastructure and products.<\/p>\n<h4>Question #9:<\/h4>\n<h4>Will Wolfram computational engine use\u00a0NKN?<\/h4>\n<p>We work with the Wolfram blockchain research lab regularly with bi-weekly calls to check on new opportunities. One of the areas we are looking at is helping Wolfram research and its community of projects to improve the communications stack in the distributed computing space.<\/p>\n<h4>Question #18:<\/h4>\n<h4>Can you tell us what\u2019s happening with improved tokenomics of NKN? Haven\u2019t heard about it in quite a\u00a0while.<\/h4>\n<p>Earlier in December, we had discussed the possibility of using a staking mechanism with NKN. We evaluated staking models from different projects, however, while it might make sense for NKN in the future, the immediate need is to encourage more adoption of the NKN token as well as market traction with our products. Once we can attract revenue and pay out to miners via token, we will have good token dynamics which will help token holders, miners, and developers alike. That type of adoption will help us with mainstream media and market as well.<\/p>\n<p>Another reason to use staking is to improve security. However, we are in the middle of a security audit and so far our current security has been adequate. We have also added additional security for our naming services as well as when generating network IDs that help reduce spamming attacks.<\/p>\n<p>We also have the <a href=\"https:\/\/forum.nkn.org\/t\/master-thread-for-nkp-new-kind-of-proposal\/503\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">NKP (New Kind of Proposal)<\/a> process, where the community can propose improvements. We encourage anyone with a good idea on how to improve our token economics to write a proposal using NKP via our forum so that we can get feedback from the community and find a way to address it.<\/p>\n<p>You can read more on a forum post, <a href=\"https:\/\/forum.nkn.org\/t\/nkn-ama-q-a-highlights-february-2020\/2097\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">NKN AMA Q&amp;A Highlights\u200a\u2014\u200aFebruary 2020<\/a><\/p>\n<h3>About NKN<\/h3>\n<p>NKN is the new kind of P2P network connectivity protocol &amp; ecosystem powered by a novel public blockchain.
