Frequently asked questions
What is nOS and how is it different from other crypto projects?
nOS is a decentralized application platform built on the NEO blockchain, designed to work like a virtual operating system for dApps. Unlike standalone blockchains, it focused on giving users one interface to browse and use many decentralized applications, with the NOS token as its native utility asset.
How does the nOS technology work?
nOS runs on top of the NEO blockchain, using NEO's delegated consensus mechanism (dBFT) for transaction finality and security. The nOS layer adds a gateway and developer toolkit so applications can interact with the blockchain without users needing to manage wallets or keys for each app separately.
How is the NOS token supply structured?
NOS has a hard cap of 100,000,000 coins, meaning no more can ever be created beyond that limit. This fixed maximum supply is defined at the protocol level and distinguishes NOS from inflationary tokens with unlimited issuance.
How can I store and use NOS?
Because NOS is a NEP-5 standard token on the NEO blockchain, it can be stored in any wallet that supports NEO-based assets, such as hardware or desktop NEO wallets. Within the nOS ecosystem, the token was intended for things like accessing applications and participating in the platform's economy. Always verify the official site, https://nos.io/, and current wallet support before transacting.
