General Updates
O3 Labs launched its O3 Swap module on the Neo N3 blockchain. O3 Swap works by combining liquidity from single-token staking pools with liquidity aggregated from decentralized exchanges. A liquidity pool for fUSDT was made available on launch, along with swapping for NEO, GAS, fUSDT, FLM, bNEO, GM, TIPS, DOGER, and CANDY. Neo and O3 Labs are planning various marketing campaigns and community engagement events to celebrate the milestone. Currently, O3 Labs is running a cross-chain airdrop campaign where 50 participants will share from a pool of tokens equivalent to US $2,000, plus 50 Blockchain Cuties NFTs.
Neo Global Development hosted a Twitter Spaces entitled Enhancing DeFi with Cross-Chain Liquidity Bridging, with representatives from O3 Labs, Poly Network, and NGD Eco Growth. Topics of discussion included the speakers’ backgrounds, mechanics of how O3 Swap operates, opportunities for cross-chain and interoperability, and much more.
The KuCoin custodial exchange migrated Legacy NEO and GAS held on its platform to N3 NEO and GAS. NEO token holders did not need to take any action to participate in the migration process, as the Legacy to N3 assets were automatically swapped at a 1:1 ratio. Users can now deposit and withdraw NEP-17 NEO and GAS.

Additionally, users who’ve claimed TIPS and performed at least one task on the meme platform will be eligible for an airdrop of TIPS for the first of the two-week campaign.
