Introduced on the Ethereum network in November, N4T is evolving from a peace-driven cultural blockchain experiment into a long-term, sustainable DeFi ecosystem. Liquidity locking reinforces stability, strengthens user confidence, and sets the foundation for the next phases of growth. N4T is now progressing with applications to CoinMarketCap and CoinGecko while preparing to list the token across leading exchanges including MEXC, Gate.io, BitMart, and BingX.
