Recently there has been a lot of hype about 1 second block chains so I thought i’d do the same thing .

This is just a demonstration of how easy it is to use NEO and the capabilities it has. Easily the most developer friendly block chain.

Public hosts EC2

Private NEO chain running NEO CLI 2.9.4

Adjust your protocol.json files to reflect the nodes and setup some NEO-CLI stuff all mentioned in the NEO document above.

Now you can adjust the block times using the config:
