It's been a good start to the year folks! Lots of major things to look forward to!

I've been completely swamped with managing examinations and so haven't been active with communication, posts and updates which should change in two weeks time. Until then here's a short update:

Blockchained AI will be a major area of focus for me especially considering I've worked extensively on it before and mainly because that's what NIO was envisioned to be if you followed us during the ICO phase.

We will be working with ESLCoin to provide our AI services that will lay the foundation to grow from, as we believe in getting as much as we can done in whatever resources available. This adds another utility to NIO and everytime our AI services are used part of the fee may be burnt as an incentive to NIO holders. We haven't worked out the breakdown and details of that yet but we will get to it, the main thing to note is that it will be aimed to add more value to Nio. (more information on ESLCoin, led by the Amazing Andrew) We're negotiating with more companies and projects (quite popular and old) who are interested in using our AI services, once finalized we will announce them.

Chinese and Korean versions of the app, relevant documents and community support are being worked on. More information on the specifics will obviously release but at a later time.

I have talked about our affiliation and partnership with AlgoShare before in Joint Venture called Prosperism. It has been taking shape and is gaining major influential support, it's a major socio-economic initiative with a potentially heavy impact. There's a lot of information regarding it on Medium that interested folks can see, as things develop and something major happens you guys will know.

I will be attending at least one blockchain event this month I've been invited to which means we may have some significant partnerships working out, but it all depends on what's best for Autonio. I'd like to point out again how our only incentive are infact the team tokens which will be accessible only after 5 months and hence our only benefit is in the growth of the token itself. We're invested our heart, soul and time into this and we will continue to do so. We are very close to getting listed into an exchange associated with a major blockchain giant, no information can be revealed on this matter and no promises can be made as exchange negotiations and deals are very sensitive and prone to changing. In a matter of few weeks at least a few more exchange options should be available based on my communication so far, stick around to find out what happens, I'm sure it'll be worth the patience.

Core team is focussed on bugs and fixes and making the platform more robust apart from planning out the exchange which should be a big deal considering the features we will be incorporating into it.

There will be an Airdrop for NIO holders to mark the collaboration with a project very soon. Probably in the next 48 hours I'll share more details about the airdrop and briefly about the project.

I feel like I'm forgetting a few things I wanted to mention, but anyway, for now just know, there's a LOT going on and I haven't even talked about how James, Embermine and us have in store for everyone.

Keep calm and have faith. This is just the dawn of a Nio Year.
