This page is a living, public log of what AxLabs has been building and delivering for the Neo ecosystem.

The goal is simple: if you’re wondering “what has AxLabs been doing for Neo lately?”, this is the single place to check.

<aside> 🗓️

We aim to publish updates weekly (typically on Fridays), but we don’t treat cadence as a hard rule. Some weeks we’ll publish more updates, sometimes we’ll bundle updates bi-weekly, and holidays may create gaps. What matters is consistency over time: clear, concrete progress snapshots as work lands.

✅ Delivered

👉 General

• Reported issues in the Oracles of Neo Testnet, where the responsible team fixed and brought all oracles back to normality.

👉 Neow3j

• Upgraded testcontainer dependency that causes issues with the newest Docker versions (planned for the next release) (https://github.com/neow3j/neow3j/pull/1160)

👉 GrantShares

• Updated neow3j dependency to 3.24.1 in smart contracts (https://github.com/AxLabs/grantshares-contracts/pull/92)

👉 BaneLabs (Neo X)

• Bridge Infrastructure — Bridge watch tower
  • Service that allows automated message execution, currently funded by AxLabs.
  • Currently only to be used with cross chain oracle calls and NeoFS funding from Neo X.
  • Can be extended into a generic executor service.
• Bridge Infrastructure — Bridge Debugger Portal
  • Web interface for bridge operations
  • Shows debugging info and current bridge status
  • Shows individual messages on the AMB, decoded for debugging purposes
  • Currently deployed on https://3vm.app.mf.axlabs.net/ (testnet only for now)
• Bridge Infrastructure — Oracle Support for Neo X Implemented infrastructure enabling Neo X smart contracts to access Neo N3 oracle services through the bridge.
  • Deployed supporting contracts on Neo X and Neo N3 testnet
  • Introduced an oracle request routing layer allowing requests originating on Neo X to be fulfilled via N3 oracle infrastructure
  • Built supporting operational components to process and finalize oracle requests across the bridge
  • Goal: allow developers and users to interact exclusively with Neo X while still leveraging N3 oracle capabilities
  • Current status: deployed and ready to test on testnet.
• Bridge Infrastructure — NeoFS Funding from Neo X Implemented infrastructure enabling Neo X users and applications to fund NeoFS balances on Neo N3 through the bridge.
  • Deployed supporting contracts on Neo N3 testnet, deployment on NeoX testnet was postponed due to an outage of NeoX testnet on Friday.
  • Introduced a cross-chain funding mechanism allowing Neo X transactions to fund NeoFS accounts on N3
  • Enables applications operating on Neo X to utilize NeoFS storage services without requiring users to directly interact with N3
  • Goal: allow developers and users to operate entirely on Neo X while still accessing NeoFS storage infrastructure
  • Current status: N3 contract deployed, NeoX contract outstanding, initial test on testnet not yet done.
• Bridge Validator & Relayer Improvements
  • Shutdown reliability improvements (https://github.com/bane-labs/bridge/pull/629)
    • Improved exit code handling to ensure validator and relayer processes terminate with correct status signals.
  • Signing workflow security hardening (https://github.com/bane-labs/bridge/pull/633)
    • Improved account lifecycle handling during signing operations.
  • Wallet security model improvements (https://github.com/bane-labs/bridge/pull/634)
    • Refactored passphrase handling and strengthened default wallet locking behavior.
  • Signer architecture refactor (https://github.com/bane-labs/bridge/pull/636)
    • Updated signer interfaces and introduced a clearer wallet abstraction layer.

🔜 What’s Next

• Oracle Bridge — Mainnet Deployment & Validation
  • Deploy oracle bridge infrastructure to Neo N3 and Neo X mainnet
• NeoFS Funding — Complete Integration
  • Validate full cross-chain funding flow before mainnet rollout
• Bridge Stability & Visibility
  • Improve resilience when interacting with external services and harden failure recovery
  • Advance indexer-backed dashboard (frontend implementation, backend review & coordination)
