Fullerene‐like nickel oxysulfide hollow nanospheres with ≈50 nm are constructed by in situ growth on the surface of nickel foam by taking advantage of solvothermal reaction. The as‐prepared composite exhibits exhilaratingly high HER and OER performance in 1 m KOH, which opens up a very promising aspect for non‐noble metal chalcogenides as bifunctional electrocatalysts.
