NERO Chain May Recap: A Month of Momentum and Mastery

NERO Chain May Recap: A Month of Momentum and Mastery

Jun 4, 2025

NERO Chain closed May 2025 on multiple high notes: the project gained global visibility at TOKEN2049 Week in Dubai, added enterprise-grade security by onboarding NTT Digital as a validator, secured a mixed-reality partnership with RealGo, ran two focused Samurai test-net waves, inspired hundreds of creative on-chain poems and artworks, and sold out its 1,650-piece Samurai Genesis NFT collection during the period. Together, these milestones tightened the network’s technical core and enriched its growing community.

Partnerships & Ecosystem

TOKEN2049 Dubai (“1001 Crypto Nights”).
At the start of the month NERO Chain showcased Blockspace 2.0 at a side-event during TOKEN2049 Week, introducing its flexible gas-logic model to an international audience of founders, funds and media.


NTT Digital validator onboarding.
Mid-May saw NTT Digital activate a validator node on NERO Chain, boosting decentralisation and lending Tier-1 operational expertise to the consensus layer — an announcement widely shared by both teams’ official accounts.


RealGo AR collaboration.
RealGo confirmed that its GPS-treasure-hunt platform will migrate rewards logic to NERO Chain, promising richer on-chain incentives and NFT moments for outdoor gamers.


Developer-Focused Wavehack

Wave 3 — Storm Cloak (12–26 May).
The third test sprint targeted stealth-transaction batching and advanced fee logic, supported by daily Discord office hours; feedback compiled on 26 May fed directly into the next client release.


Wave 4 — Beast of the Sea Boots (26 May — 9 Jun).
Wave 4 shifted attention to state-sync speed and throughput. A mid-way checkpoint on 31 May confirmed higher TPS, and formal testing continues into early June.


Community Engagements

“Mint Me a Poem” .
From 10 to 17 May, users minted three-line love poems gas-free, vying for USDT prizes and the honorary Discord title NERO Bard. The contest delivered a steady stream of creative content across X and Discord.


A Day in the NERO Family
Running 22–29 May, CHAIN GOGH invited artists to paint “A Day in the NERO Family,” with 400 $NERO points in rewards; standout pieces are now earmarked for future marketing assets.


Open ideation mindstorm.
An evergreen prompt — “What do you want to build or see on NERO Chain next?” — collected dozens of feature ideas ranging from GameFi primitives to real-world-asset vaults, informing the Q3 roadmap.


NFT MINT

The NERO Chain has finished its exciting NFT drop in 3 days, scheduled for May 26 at 12:00 UTC+9. The event features the theme “Two portals, one destiny”. There are two main phases: the WL MINT from 12:00 – 16:00 (UTC+9) on May 26 and the PUBLIC SALE from 18:00 on May 26 to 18:00 on May 29 (UTC+9).

The NERO Samurai NFT mint event was highly successful, largely due to the enthusiastic support of the community. A total of 1,650 NFTs were minted, driven by strong demand, which enhances the rarity and value of each Samurai NFT.

Holders of these NFTs are entitled to exclusive benefits, including governance rights, airdrops within the NERO ecosystem, Real – World Asset (RWA) rewards, and opportunities from Hollywood collaborations.

This is merely the start of the NERO journey. The community is encouraged to look forward to future NFT drops, events, and new developments in the NERO ecosystem.
