Bitcoin Forum

As I write this thread, the price of NEO the so called Ethereum of China is rising and its rising sharp. Many of us had that wish if we had bought ETH when it was cheap 20-50$ to get massive gains. Its not too late.
You can still invest in NEO, to make that happen. If this coin help in profiting others why not share it :)

Some of the main reasons why NEO will go to moon is as follows (Courtesy: EthereumAdvocate)

-Microsoft on board
-Multiple coding languages, not just one, no need to learn new coding (Solidity).
-Tacit acceptance by Chinese authorities.
-Chinese government intention in supporting/utilising smart contracts to secure/designate real world assets.
-Chinese desire/support for home grown product (Both Govt and populace).
-Ease of purchase by Chinese on their exchanges.
-Greater awareness of product in China than other external options (Excluding ETH)
-Rest of world awareness of product and how it offers a different option to Ethereum.
-Still viable and accessible via Bittrex to investors outside China.
-This is attractive to those that cannot/do not wish to use Solidity / Ethereum, provides another smart contract option.
-Could also be used for smart contracts in addition to/with Ethereum smart contracts from a risk management (hybrid) perspective.
-Shaping up as the best contender to take market share from Ethereum for smart contracts.

Yes, we already know :)

Rising fast is right. I messed up while trading (still learning cut me slack lol) I have more koney now but half as many NEO. Oh well live and learn

Yes, same kinds of posts about NEO. Yes, we all got it. NEO is going to be huge because the chinese are composed of billion populations and that is a huge market right?

Some go as far as saying those who do not buy right now are stupid. Well, last I heard, this is still a free world.

you think cheap 20-50$. how much do you think neo can goes up in 3 years? do you think 2000$? kidding?

do you guys have any idea which wallet to use that don't require syncing like MEW?
i find it tiring to wait for their wallet and it feels unsafe that for instance my drive collapse all of a sudden. their team should consider this, my NEO stays on the exchange still but I want it out there to keep.

I haven't heard of this, can anyone link me to a more detailed post about this?

The problem with anything that has a chinese label is that it is made with low quality. Substandard.  ;D ;D

Kidding aside, because NEO is not made in china after all, NEO is pumping almost 50% right now. This is a good sign for this newly restructured coin.

its not new. it was once ANS. I once don't like these project but suddenly found out about their new development and when it was published, all of those investors meticulously understand how sophisticated it was and bought thousands of these.

late investors are going to be late when it pass $200.

Remember how well China coin worked out right?  :D

Really smart to invest in something that just jumped from low tens to mid thirties in a few days.

I'd wait out for a correction. It's all been done and been seen before. It will go down. Even ethereum did.

quite sure. for everyone wait for dip maybe it gonna up to  60$ and dip to 40$ only hihihihi. this time you should buy. the end of this year it goes to 200$

Before putting any cent in any shitcoin think about this - If you are so smart, why are you so poor? If you are so smart, why you make so poor and stupid mistakes?

Figure this one out before you "invest" by buying any shitcoin.

Yes, Next ETH of China.NEO already pumped 5409% in last 6 months. the price of neo is increasing daily.Developers working hard for Neo.Best time to hold NEO.NEO is now 7th position in coinmarketcap. Hope it will be 5th position soon

i believe in NEO but based on its trend right now, there will be a big correction coming 40$ i think will be its peak, then itll go back to 25 or 30, but after a month itll go up 70 to even 100 before or after this year ends. this is only my prediction no one really knows what will happen in the market.

Moreover, I have seen a video with a guy who really thinks it is a good coin and a very promising one, but even he says he won't invest in it over the next week or two, because it really got to high right now. Here's the video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hn3Q-_cr2RU&t=430s. Besides, there are many Chinese but I believe most of them live a very poor life and will never even hear that NEO exists. The big guys are already crazy about btc for a long time, so maybe neo won't end up being something.

Actually I think there is just around one or two hundred thousands of people who know and willing to invest in blockchain assets in China.

For most of people, they know the btc but only think it's just another new Ponzi Scheme.

Like the most famouse guy Mr. Lixiaolai said, now 2017 for blockchain is still like 1993 for website.

And yes, I come from China.

Buying a coin at its ATH, no thanks. I will buy the dip and make some short term gains. 40-50% drop sooner or later.

Many  new coins hit an ATH yesterday. NEO, OMG CVC, ADX, PAY, QTUM.
I wonder why yesterday was so special

Its because those coins are all ground breaking tech...there are very real reasons why people are screaming take my money.

You a mod on a mod of a scheme coin gimmick.
Let me guess it's an ICO?
Did you know ETH is not even a currency?
You're trading scammy rigged ICO tokens on exchanges while none have ever had a shred of real world adoption.

Your new tech comment makes me sick ::)

once its named antshares（ANS）, it rocket to the moon after changing its name to NEO. not only the name changed but also the cision updated

You are right, I will choose a proper time to get some , not at the pumping time.What I have to say is neo is really a nice coin .

I am a bit confused. Excuse me guys but is this the NEO you are referring to? I just want to be sure whether this is it or not:

https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/neo/ (https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/neo/)

I am currently in the researching phases of it. Is that the right NEO?

No, I will not buy the NEO right now since the price is crazy and I think there is huge bubble in it. Maybe I will consider to buy some when the price drop to $10 or less.

two weeks ago its just $6 believe it or not, it won't go that low anymore but up. people may spread fud about it just as they did with eth but just so you know those people already have NEO on their wallet and wants more. if you get to see its price climb up to a hundred, you'd wish you have bought at $36. the chinese are getting greedy and they are buying those on the exchanges no matter how high the price. 50M NEO is never enough to them.

Yes, I agree. This coin is not slowing down until we see another BTC crash. Whether you like or not it will go high and very fast.
Let it touch 50$ and it will zoom up like ETH. Most of ETH investors will start moving to NEO for short term gains. NEO can very easily hit 300$ just need some breathing period.
Rising BTC is crushing many other Alts, so you can see price fluctuation. Once BTC get stable ground arnd ~4200$ then many Alt's will sky rocket again.

Good times ahead :)

I agree with you, BTC prices have risen very high and it is difficult to invest now. I think NEO is the best choice at the moment as this is the first Chinese altcoin that has a very high value and has risen sharply in the last two days an will attract a lot of potential investors.

Obviously, I can realize it, but it's my bad could not buy when it was $6. Now NEO is going to the moon, places the top 10 currencies. Pretty say that every time is good to buy NEO.

Yes i agree with as the traders who search the profit right now is late to investing into Neo
because price of Neo started sideaway and it is signal the down trend will be coming soon,
 invest in Neo is too late for now if we want makes investing will be more safe wait
until the price of Neo going down and stable then we can open positions for buy Neo.

FOMO!
CAN'T TALK TOO BUSY GETTING RICH!
CHINA
GO GO GO!

Long term I think it looks good, its mainstream now and has a lot of Chinese backing. However short term it could be dangerous and could have a pretty big correction.

Naa too high at the moment, let's see if it drops to at least $30 the next few weeks.

Oh believe me, it will.

Can anyone give me a TLDR on NEOGAS?

So you mean Bittrex may close the service of NEO, ending up with something you can not sell ? Great proof that racing to this crypto-currency without thinking might be a bad idea.

I hope you're right, I hope you're right  ;D

I hope it too :D

Beautiful bubble, as if this is a good idea to invest in a neo? After all, how it broke it will only cry, do not you fool  :o 8) ::)

$10 or less??? Good luck with that... NEO is doing exactly what ETH did few months ago.

ETH exploded to $80-100 range from $15 and consolidated there for few days before it moonshot to $200-$400 range.


Unless Chinese Gov publicly issues a statement saying they'll ban NEO, I personally don't think it'll never crash below $10.


In that case I'll double my position at that price  ;D

Good luck on doubling. I sincerely voice out doubts that any "replay" can happen, as in "the Mongolian Bitcoin" or "Antartic's DOGE". There is either original technology evolving, or it's merely a shadow of itself.
About originality.

So NEO reached an ATH of 50$ yesterday.
I've seen too many people dismiss this coin as a scam, however before investing in anything its necessary to do proper investigation.

The thing about being the "chinese Etherium" does have some sense, however it is also being used as a hype machine...

NEO is not just a ETH token like most ICOs are today, but it is a coin running in a custom blockchain similar to Etherium, thats the main reason many investors like me consider this a very important coin.
Their team basically created an alternative blockchain tech, based on the weak points of ETH, and improved on their ideas.

Here's some interesting points:

• NEO blockchain supports smart contracts like Etherium, however they are coded in C# instead of Solidity, meaning its easier to learn, as it does not require learning a custom language
• Instead of spending NEOs to run the smart contracts, you spend GAS that is generated by holding NEOs in your wallet. This basically incentives persons to not sell their NEOS, and it is a form of an inflation system.
• While talking about inflation, let's say that Etherium is basically unlimited, however NEOs and GAS are both capped to a couple millions.
  So in the long run we could see ETH price going down while NEO should keep going up.

Now not everything is sweet, so here's so points to think about:

• The number of NEOs is limited, however the devs currently hold half of them. While NEOs cant be mined, we can consider this a form of premine.
  The devs guarantee that this NEOs will be used for development / investment and that they wont give away more than an certain ammount per year.
• Rumours about the project only having 2 devs. In theory yes, but in reality there is also City of Zion which is a western open-source group dedicated to improving the NEO ecosystem. And lets not forget that most of the big projects like Bitcoin or Litecoin never had that many devs in the beginning.

I hope this info is useful for those wandering if they should invest or no.

Comparing to fork-coin Ethereum isn't a reason to buy, and neither is government involvement!
Especially the Chinese government, they don't need money, and they for sure don't need you to earn money from them!

Are there obvious addresses of devs that hold neo premine??? ;]


What is the certainty that now at the summit do not feed investors free coins?

Unfortunately NEO is not yet supported on Coinomi nor ShapeShift.io, so I can’t be bothered with it.
Also if holding not on an exchange, there is a staking dividend (although that may be insignificant near-term relative to the speculation gains contemplated).

This will soon be done in the future because NEO is a big altcoin and they have specific roadmap to help long-term investors make a profit from this altcoin and certainly NEO's price will very high in the future

NEO too risky for me. Do not know what China is doing with it

Yes all the bitcoiner i think already know about neo, have many posts that discuss this. And I think this is an opportunity to invest,

Day-to-day bitcoin development is very significant, and new coin coins are emerging, and I do not think that NEO alone has great potential, but there are still some coins I think can compete with neo.

really because there is many chinese, money will get high?

is there any indian ico? :P

The price has just dropped like almost all other alts. If anyone want so to jump in on neo then now is the best time to do it! This could be the last drop before the inevitable leap to ethereum heights - or at least close to it

I sold 10 and made 20 dollars benefits,  8)

Honestly NEO sounds legit.... addresses a lot of concerns / barriers to entry to the Ethereum network (from the perspective of a developer - not having to learn a new language etc)

The delegated byzantine fault tolerance approach for block formation and consensus makes way more logical sense to me than the current Proof of Work or even Proof of Stake models. It's just so much faster and without unnecessary use of electricity and computer resources.

Yes you are probably right do not make anymore mistakes like you did last time to bitcoin. And that is china the country that is known for business. We should invest here in NEO. Look at it once it was implemented in the market it grew and took the spot number 9 for itself. Invest now! It is now or never.

Lets all invest in NEO! When the pice continues to fall below $20  ;)

How much is it now? Is it in any exchanges? Can someone give me some links that I could check into? Hopefully it will go cheaper so I could buy also.

It amazes me how easy most people put their hard earned money in something they don't understand. Selling vaporware is so much easier in crypto than selling actual products with actual use cases.

Is 20$ the ICO price? I am closely watching this coin as its quite popular right now. I am not still sold ot this idea as it may be another pump and dump scenario but I am curious. I bought small amount  just in case.

The power of the mass, is stronger than u think my friend

Neo is great cause it also generates gas. If you have enough neo, you could live off the gas. But it would have to be a lot.

The power of the mass, stronger than you think my
friend,
when price is low, people ignore n consider it shit coin, when price is rising, people
buy into the hype n expect it to continue rising.

Let's see what will happen in the next few days.. hope price of NEO will recover :))

 :-\ seen many topic told about this coin. Maybe I should make some research for myself about this coin. price is low for me now. If it can become etherum of china it will be awesome

NEO was over priced to start with, All this hype that lead up to its price is pure fomo. I still see people promoting this coin but i dont have any plans to buy into it. My opinion is that it will end up fizzling away, Im not a major fan of ethereum but its the solid winner. No reason for neo to catch up in price with it.

Certainly, Antshare just is altcoin PR by Chinese, after the price of Antshare raise up fast in short time and reached on top 10 cryptocurrency on coinmarketcap, it create a FOMO attractive many speculator on market. This bubble will breakdown soon, because altcoin PR by Chinese cannot keep it's trend in long time, that is my experience. ;D

I agree with this. I think the price is going to keep dropping slowly and stagnate until further hype is generated. I think it would be wise to sell any holdings on short spikes and buy during the next wave, if there is any.

Once there are some news, it will rise like crazy again.

If you remember how quickly the price of neo rose from $5 to around $40 you will realise that when the hype begins you had better be quick or miss out on buying neo while it's affordable - otherwise you can always buy part of a neo when the price goes to the moon!

The Chinese coin NEO recently is not very happy. Over the past time, her rate has risen a little, now falls and is now 33 dollars. It is difficult to predict what will happen to it in the future, but given the multi-billion population of China, this coin demand will grow, and hence the coin itself will be strengthened. In addition, China now maintains active trade relations with many countries of the world and the use of crypto currency in trade with them will also increase. You can say that the prospect in this coin is.

The competition should have been a league. A knockout would not make the proper ranking as better coins may get to fight with each other earlier.

This is due to rush buying of investors.
NEO is a promising coin but it has to go through a longer testing period to be accepted as alternative for ethereum platform.
It is not going to be an ethereum overnight.

There are all stages of a big pump again. First everyone's super enthusiastic yelling that the pump will never stop and making impossible predictions about the future price. Then when the correction kicks in all people that were afraid to buy in or missed the train come and tell "Well, I told you it's a shitcoin right from the start anyway, the coin is 100% dead now".

It's always the same. Well I have to agree the news where kinda shocking but at the end a platform with fewer high quality ICOs is not all to bad compared to a platform with 99% shitty scam ICOs. We will see what happens but I guess everyone with a right mind will see that NEO is here to stay and will be a big player in the cryptocurrency market. With all the importend dates coming up for NEO I see a clear rise in the price for September.

NEO could have dropped way more ifyou look at the charts from yesterday. BTC was rising and the most altcoins were down. This shows that there are still a lot of people who want to get on the boat and want to buy some cheap coins.  

It's a basic concept that early investment on good things would give better returns.
NEO is already proved to be a promising platform, at least due to the team.
And the price is still below $100.

People told the same thing for Eth when it was launched and they still whine Eth is a scam. See for yourself where is Eth now!
Do your homework and if you think you believe in coin then buy. Your experience doesn't make any coin shit coin :D

I am also amazed by the NEO movement in the world of cryptocurrency. Though I have not known NEO for a long time. I just understand why NEO ever ranked first in the exchanger. wow ... fantastic  :)

Nope I don't think rush buying is the one of the main reason why the price of NEO rising so hard these days but the real adoption of chinese communities makes it rise and remember chinese are the one of the big contributor on cryptocurrency industry so there's no doubt that this one will get huge success if chinese guys will not change their minds on supporting this coin. And maybe for now it will not be going to be an ethereum overnight but for seeing the potential of it I think this coin can gain more price hikes in future.

I am bullish on Neo despite Chinese regulations, I don't think it will have a lasting effect and RedPulse is just first of many which will cause Neo to soar.

I am definitely bearish. The Chinese government does not fuck around. They definitely want to prevent a bubble.

If NEO is eth of China, NEO will not be banned from China Gov

And a lot of people already regret it, because the price of neo is damn high right now, I was remember at the price of neo was around 8k satoshi and OMG those were publishing the neo as another shitcoin.
The developer just give an evidence about the consistently of its development.

Don' t very look at that project till now, and very disappointed . Yes, i look antshares but forget that one... when i see Neo, it's just so bad.

My fault, shame on me ! I will be on that faster. One of the most gret project in this world.

where we can trade this coin?
which Chinese platform can trade it?yunbi?

We can't turned back the time but we can still joined the ride I'm not sure why people still doubting while many who already into it is really enjoying how the brand name changes the directions of this project ant really become a big success.

This tech is sound but this coin has suffered recently as one ICO built up on NEO (RPX) is not allowing China investors, who are the biggest holders of NEO. This is response to regulation in China. Hence large sell off in NEO, have to continue to monitor the regulatory environment in China.

-Microsoft on board
-Multiple coding languages, not just one, no need to learn new coding (Solidity).
dont known this coin before but after see two line I think I will invest some

The price of neo skyrocketed when it was introduce to the public then slowly deteriorate then it came back up again even stronger, its a roller coaster ride but anyone who invested on the antshares have made a killing.

It's very interesting to invest in this coin, but before I want to see the successfull ICO's on this platform.

I agree with the idea that the NEO coin is very promising because of its wide support in China, and this is a huge market in size. In addition, recently it has been very active and only in the last three weeks its price has doubled.

Price is dropping slowly, its crazy how money in digital currency fluctuates. It may drop further more or possible come back. But if it has true value, maybe like ethereum, then one day it will rise.

It looks like those invested early on, maybe @ ICO price, now cashing it out slowly, causing price to even drop further.

No coin has TRUE Value. Its all thin Air! Its all based on other people willing to pay more to buy something which some has, that what decides crypto's price. A mere speculation I would say  ;D

the point is clear if many who buy the coin would be the price will rise and vice versa if many who sell the coin then the price will drop.
the rotation is so fast and you will not be able to predict it with anything but the luck factor.

Ive been through a lot of cryptos and this coin has one of the best dividend features out of the lot of them.
whats one of the main reasons people put money into anything -  to earn a divvy/interest
Once this neg ico chinese news fades this is going to monster
i mean the gas reward is nearly to good to be true. if this tech is legit and proves itself there is no reason why this cant compete with ethereum on a market cap basis

I wonder if the Neo gas is illegal because it's a straight up security as per Howey Act where giving dividends makes you a Ponzi scheme. I don't know how much immunity they get from the fact they're based in China. Maybe if CCP was on their side, 100%

I had high hopes for NEO so I bought in at around $12. Then it hit $50 and I got excited. Now, I am afraid that it was all hype and that the hype died down that it's just going to sit there. I'm going to hang onto it for a while, but it's not looking too promising.

The only thing I don't like about NEO is you can't send fractional coins.

If each NEO is worth $1 million USD, then no one can send $100,000 worth of NEO. That's the bad thing about NEO.

for now, you dont think they can change that in future?

But you can already trade fractions of NEO on exchanges (like Bittrex). Just won't be able to send them to NEO wallet, so as long as exchanges will also distribute gas to NEO holders, it is not such a big issue. That is if you trust them enough to hold your coins there.

lol, you are so imaginative, the price seems to stable around 30-35$

NEO will certainly have good price but at this time many NEO sellers because according to recent information the Chinese government is preventing the participation in ICO projects from the NEO platform, this made many people bewildered and sold NEO at this time

Yes! I agree
They spread this type of FUD to get the value lower so that the whales can fill their bags. In the long run NEO will definately survive and ICO regulations will help NEO and it's platform in the future.

NEO being a Chinese startup, would surely suffer from the Chinese government's policy, but with the large optimism and investment of Chinese youths for blockchain, China seems to be softer to such technology. Take an example of large mining farms, which are just in front of the communist party, yet runs without any problems.

I am surprised it didn't crash upon the Chinese authorities' announcements. Signs of resilience ;)

It increased in 7-9 times, let him relax:) China will not let him fall below 30 sufficiently. Just buy and hold

I see the development of NEO and also the volume in the exchange have a high volume, if buy now it to late or not for me?because i wanna hold NEO for a long time if it not to late.

Remember to store it in a wallet so you get free gases :)

The real test will be if a real ico is run on it and available to the chinese. 

registered in a large market, has a high volume, has a good trust. I think it's good enough to buy it now when the price is down.
thank you for the friend's information, I will examine more about this coin.
I will buy it with the price 0.006 hopefully I get it.

I believe they're having a meeting with the regulator at the end of September, positive steps to a price % recovery i think.

I don't like chinese coin. BCH is chinese coin, neo too. I think neo or BCH just for trading not for keeping in my wallet. BTC and eth I trust those two coin to keep in my wallet. NEO is just pump and dump coin. Want to make short time profit from it. Not interesting to me. There are more interesting coin then neo. I like waves better than Neo.

You might miss out lots of opportunities because of your prejudice.

Great buying opportunities...  Under 20 now. 

It's definitely in a wild ride right now, it will be interesting to see if it recovers any time soon. 

I have come across this statement in various threads now. However, I have been unable to find
a reliable source that confirms that this meeting will actually take place.

If you followed the recent China news regarding the legality of ICOs you know that there
are at least 7 entities that are responsible for the regulation of investments like this in China.
Which of the 7 entities (maybe there are even more) is meeting with the team behind NEO?

Why would any of these regulatory bodies even meet with the team behind NEO at all?

Until I see a reliable source that confirms this meeting, I will consider this a baseless rumour.

https://www.reddit.com/r/NEO/comments/6y5pen/china_government_aims_to_become_the_global_leader/

I bought my NEO at the price of $34 two weeks ago, I was surprised that it took a deep dip yesterday at the rate of $21. I was so shocked but I have faith that it will bounce back in time when the issue about ICO's are over. I am actually buying again since when it comes to investing in stocks or crypto, it is always buy low and sell high even if I am a HODL type of person.

Lots of FUD and other rumors swirling right now. It's best to wait for the dust to settle before you make any other decisions regarding buying/selling.

I don't think so dude,, because I think the NEO is one of the most severely affected projects of Chinese government policy that prohibits ICO

sorry to hear that. but I think it'will be hard time for NEO. maybe they will have more plan for NEO without ICO

If NEO new ethereum in China, then I have a very bad news for holders NEO ;D

Now I watch the expected decline. After a strong pumping. Wait 2 weeks and the carousel will start again

I agree. I don't have NEO but I know someone who is bleeding right now because of the loss  ;D He panicked buying at $30 as he isn't aware of China's new regulations regarding ICO then it dropped to $20's.
Hope the developers will have a way though so that investors will have a way to recoup the loss.

I don't see NEO recovering now in the near future as it is banned from doing ICOS, so NEO will become probably defunct sooner or later, unless China decides to relax and regulate the laws a little bit. If the blanket ban on ICOS continues, then Neo is having an early funeral.

Or, NEO being a Chinese startup, will be looked upon kindly by the Chinese government. They will be more willing to enter into discussion and come to a suitable conclusion for all. Good example on mining. Surely there is some benefit involved or they wouldn't have let it happen. Now imagine if... mining were banned ;)

The news China gov have idea block ICO had published a month ago. But people dont care about it.

I agree on that one. I dont think we should trust too easily that China will just clear the way for ICOs and cryptocurrency in general in the future. Its very hard for them to control and we know china do love to control things.

I'll address/comment on the misinformation from the poster below, mostly in red.

At present, it has fallen sharply.  That is sad !! :(

NEO is getting absolutely rekt.  This was a really big hit for NEO with the banning of ICOs in China. 

China considers ICO illegal, NEO + altcoin sharply reduced.

But that's very normal for this market when any kind of bad news comes along. This should be no surprise to anyone.

Everyone who buys a coin which has just risen 100X+ within a few weeks should consider the remote probability that he or she may end up losing all or most of the money...

Anything that rises can also fall. Absolute zero is the remotest possibility but 50% or even 90% is still within the realm of reason. NEO took a huge hit, makes people like me breath a sigh of phew. With all the regret for not getting in early, there are also the reliefs of not getting in just before the dip. Time will tell, but this price is just SO tempting now!

That's always a good point to remember. Huge gains do not come without risk of loss.

Among the doom and gloom here's what I don't get:

1.  China has banned/made illegal ICOs for now.  But isn't the general feeling this was a step that will lead to regulation ... eventually opening up a more legitimate ICO market place?

2.  If a start up in Spain (or pick your country) wanted to use NEO as the platform for an ICO the Chinese could stop this?  Certainly the government could ban its citizens from participating... but why can't 99% of the rest of the world still use NEO as an ICO platform?  I guess the government could arrest the NEO team thus ending everything... but seems go me the government is essentially trying to protect it's citizens  (scam ICOs).  With NEO itself being based in China... it's unclear how far the govt tentacles can reach with regard to this?

As a side note... Red Pulse (Hong Kong) has delayed their ICO but still hasn't cancelled it.  Interesting to see what ultimately happens there. 

Yes, I think the NEO will have a hard situation now and if the Chinese government do not relax the policy, it will be very hard. One the other side, I do not think the Chinese government will restrict the cyrpto market.

I think it's a foregone conclusion that the Chinese government with regulate crypto - they try to regulate the internet, what's to stop them?

To late pessimists! You are just trying to lower the price so you can jump in.

This is what the released this morning in chinese!

Dear NEO Community :
First of all, thanks to all the participants in the community for NEO has been the support and contribution. The open source project NEO has been developing healthily since its inception in 2014 .
NEO focuses on the underlying technology of the chain chain , providing digital infrastructure, digital identity and intelligent contracts for the future of the intelligent economy to provide the basic network.

NEO is a technology-oriented community that focuses on the underlying technology of the block chain.
Looking back 1 year ago , NEO completed the world's first returnable ICO, of which about half of the participants came from overseas. From 2016 Nian 9 Yue 7 Ri ICO as of 10 Yue 17 Ri NEO during the main-line line , all participants can choose a full refund Bitcoin has been invested. In the said period , a total of 15 people applied for a refund of the participants , a total return of 50.308364 bits coins. This global first return mechanism protects the interests of the participants to a considerable extent.
With the development of the community , NEO has grown from a start-up by the Chinese open source project , it has become a largest in the world , and has a large foreign community and developer of the world's leading public chain. Today's NEO Council has sufficient resources to support technology research and development and ecological construction in the next few years.

NEO Council 2017 Nian 9 Yue 5 Ri

people in China still use facebook, google... what can stop them?

NEO is too hyped recently, and the recent drop is just cooling down a little bit. I would say regulation is needed for ICOs in China since there are so many scammy ICOs lately.

china is also a communist country so we really cant say what their government can do regarding to this matter but for sure people who believes into
crypto will also do their best, time to buy cheap NEO I guess and allow this concerned be discuss inside the exchange.

In general this is a sensible and time-tested strategy.

However, with news like this you are potentially looking to
lose 90 % or more of your current investment, because the major - if not the only - use case in the biggest market in the world
(after all China has the biggest population) suddenly vanished.

Besides, many countries could follow with similar measures. South Korea has already followed the Chinese and other
countries are looking to adopt similar policies regarding the legality of ICOs.

With current news about china this topic looks like deserted planet in the big universe. Lols. They are not even in the position to accept ICO projects now and how they are supposed to create a all new ethereum blockchain at their home. This is not possible and I don't care what others are saying here positive or negative but now I know China is most untrusted market in the world and they are here to manipulate it that's all. Must stay away from them.  ::)

Well this is bad news for those who have invested at high prices. And also good news for those who are still thinking of investing. Might as well wait for the price to get lower still. Possibly then we can consider investing.

I'm one of the millions who invest when the neo price goes up. And I will hold the neo for a long time hopefully there is to the magic that happens is the Chinese government rethink about its new rules and I'm waiting for it to happen :)

Just now I bought few NEO coins. I am not aware of this coin. Usually, I will concentrate on only other top altcoins. But yesterday news makes me to give some concentration on this coin, and I go through it is very good project i think now is the best time to invest on this coin. So i bought, but my question is what will be the price of this coin at this year end any idea.

Neo has fallen sharply against the backdrop of recent events. I wonder what will happen to him further

I know I'm blowing against the wind here but I don't believe China has any intention on cracking down a new promising sector and let the West to take a huge lead. I think the opposite will happen here. My thinking here is that in a couple of weeks China will announce regulations about ICOs, that will enable the good projects to do business legally (not in a grey area) and forbid potential scams to raise money.
Neo to $100+ this year.
There will be a lot of people banging their heads for missing the train again :)

my thoughts exactly, lol!

China is making a great mistake in trying to regulate something that supposedly cannot be regulated. Trying to centralize something that is supposed to be decentralized. NEO will find ways to succeed outside of China and that will be attained by making the coin more flexible in markets outside of China.

We dont need to worry. just hang on, eventually the price will go back up!

How do you mean it cannot (shouldn't) be regulated?
Blockchain shouldn't be regulated. Volunteer Crypto projects (not taking funds from people to get started) shouldn't be and can't be regulated.
But ICOs? The companies doing ICOs, taking cryptocurrencies and converting them into local currency to get started? These are still companies operating in common market where all companies follow some regulation. Why would there be different rules for them?

neo effect, china regulator is closed and baned about ico project
if neo not open service same with ETH, i think china regulator not ban about ico project

2. I doubt any serious start up in Spain would:
a) Decide to do something risky like this. Neo is not a public blockchain. Neo is totally under control of the Neo team (or rather onchain ? which btw is also involved in an exchange...), and thus by extension of the Chinese government.
b) Use such a problematic platform in the first place. Neo is going in the very wrong direction of being under control of the NEO team. Blockchain systems were developed to get away from this.
BTW it's very clear how far the government can reach. It can just shut down the whole Neo project whenever it wants.

People like blockchain because it is decentralized. If NEO still under NEO team it is not a good news because China gov can control it

I think NEO price will recover soon. China can't kill ICO. They just want to control it. If they want kill crypto. They had been ban bitcoin

I hope so because I did not think when buying NEO precisely the price dropped close to 50% fortunately I just bought a little NEO

I thought NEO, while it started in China... was an open source project with a public blockchain?  Maybe I misinterpreted that?

In simple terms how I view this... the ICO is just a way to fund a project/company.... China is saying that breaks their  fundraising laws... that's basically it.  I think some are getting a little carried away, or what am I missing?  A project could start tomorrow on the NEO platform...no one is stopping that.  It's just if it's a Chinese company it can't fundraise through an ICO.

And most likely ICO regulations will be rolled out to have it meet their fundraising laws.  More and more countries are going to be doing something similar.  Just seems like there is a little too much freak out. 

My thoughts exactly. Why kill the golden goose when it's ur goose?

As with many rules in China, they will try to do a wide ban first and start opening small exceptions and slowly opening up even more.

Lucky to buy on dip again

I really dn't think this will happen anytime soon. As a matter of fact, a lot of ICOs are scam. Any blockchain companies could also take it to the regulated IPO market to raise the funds they need to develop blockchain tech. So I don't really see why govt will allow ICO again.

I would personally stay away from NEO until situation is clear. PBOC has announced not only the stop of ICO but a request of refund for ICO project in China. Many projects including NEO has announced plan to return NEO coin. Without the Chinese regulation support how can a Chinese ethereum project be successful? NEO has chosen the refund deadline to be 18th Oct coincide with Chinese government election date, hoping a changing of guards leads to changing of plan? Maybe unlikely.

How's that China FOMO working out for ya Investards ?
You would have been smart to listen up earlier huh ?  :D
Idiots LOL

no one will know neo will be up or even destroyed in the future, because in my opinion there may be no chance neo to rise again. but if anyone believes neo will rise again, then no one forbids to invest from now on

BUY before you REGRET IT !

GO GO GO !

Lol in this for the long haul. We will see during fourth quarter what this thing will do once all the FUD dissipates

Worst case scenario... China bans all cryptocurrency... what happens to NEO.  Could the project leaders simply move (be allowed to?) to another cryptocurrency friendly country?

I think they can, as they have no centralised place of existence, it's just their team being in china, The Neo would survive even without the team.

Forget all the news you have read and look to the future potential NEO got. NEO wants to work with the government and its allowed to operate. That's already all that you need to know. Tokens will get licenses to run an ICO in the future and Chinese programmers will pick NEO and some international as well. You know how much money there is in china right? I got my NEO on the 10$ mark and I am not planning to sell until at least 1 to 2 years have passed and have produced some nice GAS. Does NEO drop below 10$? buy as much you can you are missing out else wise yes.

I am holding also at NEO, I believe in the near future this all government thing will get fixed and NEO gets pumped again.

sigh, not able to get my NEO back.

Haha banning can not make NEO weaker. developed team will know how to solve this issue. new ICOs will be held outside the China. I have bought a lot of neo when it was dumped to 3xx. Best decision ever. Right now I can sell my NEO for profit. But I will hold it for a few more months. Neo is as strong as Ehtereum ;) INvest before it is too late

Yeah, I already have investment in NEO, its indeed the next Ethereum its gonna break records for sure

I am too holding some NEO, I think that it have a lot of potential, you can create smart contract in a lot of languages, not only in Solidity (for me personally it's quite difficult), I will be happy if I could work with python  ;D.

On the other hand, I don't like that name, the Ethereum of China. In my country China products are often tied to  "low quality product",

I repeatedly said everywhere that NEO has a great potential. And I believe in this coin. I believe the NEO team, because there are serious developers sitting there. I think they will find a compromise and start cooperating with the Chinese government, which will lead to huge growth in the long term!

NEO is in a spot similar to Ethereum's in early 2017, both cryptocurrency value wise and launch phase wise. Its product is fully operational and does a few things differently from Ethereum, including execution of C# code, which allows NEO to do more things with the platform and attract more developers. The platform is also primed for running initial coin offerings (ICOs). And I wouldn't be surprised if it continues to be the go-to platform for upcoming Chinese ICOs. As we saw this year with Ethereum, when ICOs launch demand for the token that is hosting them goes up drastically.

Neo has become spot lately and I believe there is a potential on this coin. Yes even investing on this coin for a long term we can get earn profit.

Neo is very potential and I am very sure of this. Because some aspects of neo I say have the potential for long-term investment even though it is now in its downturn but I am sure they will rise again. Stay optimistic and do not be influenced by the words of many people. Immediately buy neo when the price is cheap as now and save for a long time!

NEO is overhyped.. ETH was first and will always be first.. that's how first works
ETH has the pioneer and first mover advantage, unless ETH messes up REALLY bad, there is no chance for NEO to catch up
Anything to NEO implements ETH can implement (if it endangers it's popularity)

Yeah and when the LEO coin guys in Pakistan had their bank accounts seized for fraud by the Police they can simply move to another country  :D

Scammy bullshit is.. scammy bullshit pajeets.

I wonder if NEO still could go to the moon though I've read somewhere that they are doing some improvements. Hope it could go to the $30 or more rate again soon as it stayed still at $20's.

Nothing is impossible with NEO, it could go up at any given time. The volume on bittrex speak for itself, still on the top active market list in the last several weeks. This means more investors still heavily invested on NEO which can help increase the price easily.

Jesus fucking christ is there *ANY* Legendary accounts here anymore..


















..defending ICO's ?

Still waiting for to shoot back to 30's. Bought more at 20. Maybe will buy 100 more at current price. NEO has to go to at least ETH's price in a year's time and even more if it gets CCP monopoly behind it. Just look at Alibaba.

Waiting for it to drop to 10 then will buy in bulk :D .. NEO is here to stay and it will grow stronger by end of this year :)

Lol, I'm waiting for the sale too!

NEO price is down right now since China government will ban the exchange in China, every coin will down during these day.

I don't want to buy it since it price is not so profitable today, if its price go back to below $1, I may buy some.

Yes it's a chinese ETH, but if the future of ICO and exchanges remain uncertain, the price will only go down.

I would wait a moment before entering as I believe it's there is still room for price dropping.

NEO was $16 yesterday. I wonder what will become of him after this crunch.
I think there is no future for NEO. I invested in it when it was 47 and I've lost almost everything.
I will rather burn it than to sell at this current rate.

lol $1, that's a nice target. Sure buy bucket loads if it reaches there

seem like the $3000 is the bottom of it all and its now starting to retrace.


nothing is impossible though but good luck waiting for the price to dip that low. you will be waiting for forever but go ahead set up your buy order, you never know someone might just be picking your order.

I think it is possible that NEO price falls much more. And we know that Chinese citizens bought the most NEO as it is a Chinese company. And as they won't be able to Exchange it on Exchanges...
Some people will surely sell them at low prices. But maybe some chinese hope that Exchanges will reopen and will hold their NEO in their wallet. But they are not certain to be able to Exchange it easily.
It is like playing poker. 50/50 chances to win. Or maybe they can go to Hong Kong to exchange them. But i don't know if it is easy to do it.
But if we compare NEO to bitcoin, the value of NEO is still not very low. So i think it will go lower. And Bitcoin too.

NEO is a important Chinese coin, so i HODL some of these... Buy it, maybe for less money but in the future could be one of the biggest, but NO ONE WILL KNOW SO CAUTION don't get all of it  ;) But part of something could be nice

We could face another cold period for cryptocurrency, including neo.... maybe it goes down to $1...who knows....FUD is really strong.

NEO is available at CoinSwitch. You can buy it from https://www.coinswitch.co/exchange/btc/neo/0.1

I think neo will really die, especially neo on china side,  :)
and china forbid digital currency, end for neo  :)

The team is already trying to establish base in other countries. I guess in some way, they are going to survive in long term

Im expecting news within the month of China changing their minds.

Until then I hope NEO plummets so I can buy some for next to nothing.

They are all off enjoying their fortunes.

Now, when in China they solve the questions connected with the further circulation of the crypto currency in this country, the fate of the Chinese coin NEO directly depends on these decisions in China. I think that in China everything will soon end safely with an even stronger strengthening of the crypto currency and NEO will also rise.

Yeah I bet CCP is holding Neo themselves, and they bought a lot of it right now.

If everything goes well with the regulators, then the Cryptoworld will hit new levels. It simply means that Crypo is 100% accepted.

I am sure the Chinese market will stabilize again and NEO will continue to obtain good prices. I hope this happens because I bought a lot of NEO and will keep it for 3 years.

One way to look at it maybe, Chinese Gov on one side, NEO (Powerful Chinese projects) in the middle, Chinese population on the other.

To get to a TL DR IMO, the reality of the real-world future benefits of NEO cannot be denied. Gov has left projects untouched, as to, allow to continue, in place to progress IMO.
For Chinese pubic, the 'offer' to be refunded at ICO price put in place.

Difficult to chose in such turbulent times - to buy NEO now or to wait for some possible future price tanking?

It's true, can't decide too. The coin has a high profit potential but also high volatility. And even the news are making their adjustments. Difficult choice.

Is it not more so to consider if this tech will actually come to fruition in future?
Is this not an indication that Govs now taking note, see future benefits, and cannot deny that this is where things are going, and so with trying to get an early handle with what is going on, know not to touch projects themselves. Surroundings may be affected,
How have they 'hit' these projects?, They have not. They have suggested they give the public the choice to be refunded if they wish to be refunded.

Yeah I think so and totally agree with you. Chinese market is too good for crypto currency. And NEO build by Chinese developer. So it's could be a next ETH in future.

I think getting some regulation in the space will be good. Right now, regulation is everyone's worst fear. Once the space has regulation and we see that crypto is still thriving, it will give the market a lot of confidence.

A very promising feature of this project is that their platform supports virtually all existing programming languages, including Java, Python, Go, Kotlin and Microsoft.net. It greatly facilitates the creation of smart contracts.

Sliiightly offtopic but.. Chinese possible decision to put a halt on ICO`s makes sense if you think how much scam and money laundering can be done here. It can actually add so much needed safety into cryptoworld. And another equally important aspect is that Chinese are not dumb. especially when it comes to trading and making profit. Do you really believe that they will pass on such an opportunity that crypto offers?

they do have their own brute force way to profit from all these crytocurencies, the chinese knows there is huge opportunities in crypto otherwise they won't be making miner devices. they are not dumb but they can also be stupid, they could even copy the entire coins listed on the exchanges for the entire chinese population to use. they can create their own monero, ripple ad etc.

Sorry but I not a fan of NEO, I do not think this coin will be good coin for hold in long term like your plan.
Because it has pumped to high value and different the community of Ethereum or Bitcoin.
It cannot compete to two top coin have real community while it just an altcoin centralization by Chinese holder.

The reason that mining is so attractive in China is not the potential of cryptocurrencies, but rather the huge
amount of excess energy supply. In several rural provinces the electricity company is either cooperating with the
mining operations or even running the operations themselves!

NEO Price Mounts Shaky Comeback as Battle for $20 Intensifies
With most of the turmoil affecting Chinese exchanges behind us, the time has come to look forward again. One of the altcoins a lot of people are keeping a close eye on is NEO. Given its recent all-time high, followed by an extreme correction, it is interesting to see what this coin will do. Right now, the NEO price is hovering around $19.75, even though it hit $23 a few hours ago.

Now again it is coming down. This is an excellent project from China and yes this ETH for Chinese people. But now people are getting fear to invest on this coin after releasing news from China governament. i think many people are selling this coin. i am having this coin and hoping again it will come back to more than $30.

Yes, this looks great. Will go back to $50 in couple months in my opinion.

Does the NEO team move from China?  If nothing more to help with perception?

It's still not clear to me how (or if?) the current Chinese situation hurts NEO?  Ok, there can't be an ICO based in China... whether it's on NEO, or ETH, or whatever...  NEO is open to ICOs coming from all other parts of the word...  the same as ETH and others.  What ultimately is the impact on NEO then?

China forbids all kinds of icos about cryptocurrency, NEO can not open to icos except it leave China.

I dont think that NEO has a future, it pumped hard because it was tottaly involved in China ICO market. With sch kind of a news where ICOs are forbidden, NEO can start aiming to another markets, but can it compete with ETH? Probably not.

ETH and NEO (and others) are in exactly the same spot aren't they?  Chinese ICOs can't be started on their platform.  Or someone correct me?  If an ICO from Japan wants to use NEO the Chinese are going to do what (other than banning their cituzens)?

The NEO team is in China... but so what?  I guess if things got really bad they could be arrested... they could also leave the country and go somewhere else. 

I have mentioned NEO quite a few times when its price is only $ 6-8, I am still studying and scrutinizing step by step from the Chinese government and that will greatly affect NEO.

What do you think an altcoin centralization in a country compete to an altcoin has a huge community on the world, who will are winner? 8)
In my opinion, I will choose Ethereum for hold in long term!

NEO was all about marketing... now where's the product? the development? the dApps? The coin was way overvalued based only on being "ethereum of china", that couldn't be sustainable...

NEO could actually be better than ETH. marketing of course are there all coins does need marketing even the tokens for adnetworks themselves. there are languages that ETH ain't ready yet. and it doesn't have GAS too so if you are looking for a product, GAS itself it.

NEO CEO Da HongFei wanted to turn NEO into a smart economy platform for China. NEO will survive. China banning ICO like BTC in the past is temporary. If you're willing to take the risk and be patient you will be rewarded handsomely.

I am greatly pleased to have bought some NEO these days.
After the China ICOs ban, if NEO has the government's trust and becomes the authoritative platform, it will make it very strong.

I don't really like anything from China. You know China's product are garbage. Most of them duplicate products from handphone to other electronic no good quality at all. Neo is the same is copy paste of eth I don;t care if it is pumped or dumped

the one thing people keep parroting about neo is how hard they've tried to be compliant in china. china has just made it clear they don't give a shit how compliant anything is.

if they're not gonna permit a vanilla coin like bitcoin, there's no way they'll permit anything with extra layers of complexity or the possibilities for mania.

if they head abroad they'll be fine. if they stay china focused there ain't nothing to focus on any more.

and i'm amazed that some people in this thread still seem to think there's gonna be a chinese market. there won't be outside of guys meeting in bars.

I don't know if NEO has a future. It has some good ideas like the production of GAS. But it also means that people are dependant of the NEO servers. It is not very decentralized i think. But we don't know if the Exchanges will be able to reopen in China. The ban on ICO is maybe not temporary? It may be like in the US are in Japan where people can't participate in ICO? For the moment chinese citizens can participate in ICO. But they can't create ICO i think.
I think Ethereum is better as it is more decentralized. They depend on the miners for the moment. But people who don't or can't mine, don't get any shares.

I invested when it was over $40. So I invested and regret it :P
But hopefully it'll start to gain some steam again. It seems like a good platform... and at least I'm collecting some GAS.

The NEO market really needs good information from China because if China issues a real ban on the platform then surely NEO will just be a normal altcoin and surely people will sell NEO

Give it time. It took Apple and Microsoft so many years and failures to get to where they are today. Back then, you would have laughed at them and definitely would not have invested because you didn't have the foresight. At least hold on to your investments in NEO, don't sell unless you just want out and be done with it.

If you want to invest in Ark or Lisk and Ethereum, then do so. I wish you the best.

I think UBIQ is the next ETH do your research and compare the 2

Do not worry the NEO market will definitely stabilize again if China lifts ICO ban. I think NEO is always a good platform in the future because this market has attracted a lot of investors and we should invest this long term altcoin.

China already officially banned ICO's. One thing for sure is they won't lift the ban not anytime soon. But it doesn't mean it's giving on cryptocurrencies like NEO. For the time being, the future of altcoins in China seems not bright.

No where to go but up now! Be strong and hold.

China hasn't done anything to ban cryptocurrency.  They want to regulate the ICOs (just like the US is probably going to do shortly), because a good portion of that space is scams, and probably already violates laws they have on the books.  They're not banning bitcoin, and it's unlikely they'd ban NEO.

i think too, because:
Currently, NEO is offering a $ 35 rebound, which is a good time to buy and hold.
NEO's technology is rated more outstanding than EThereum
NEO is supported by the world's largest economy, China, which currently holds 70 percent of the world's Bitcoin reserves.
Just as in the article, why invest in Ethereum that you wrote long ago proved that what you say is true, in this article, once again advised you to invest in NEO

Not sure where you have been for the last week?

Right here, watching you all melt down over something that's not anywhere near the seriousness you attribute to it.

Do you still believe in NEO after what China authorities stated about ICO and yaun/crypto trades on their territory?

I took a pause with NEO.

I don't think NEO is going away.

Are you invested in Lisk and Ark with Ethereum?

neo is a overrating shitcoin!

NEO is crashing probably thanks to all the fud coming from China, I think the project has a future but I’m not so sure to invest now I think the price can still go a little bit lower, besides bitcoin is still recovering and it may take a little while before bitcoin recovers completely from the crash we had a few days ago.

I am. Will be adding to my position for Lisk, Ark, Ethereum, and a bit of Qtum now. I won't sell my current stake in NEO. Let's give it a year I think.

I can earn gas money if you store your NEO in the wallet. NEO will look back and regret why they didn't buy NEO at $20 when it reaches $200. Buy when it's low not when it's high  ;D

NEO is really a promising and promising coin. However, investing in it now is associated with a huge risk due to the adoption by the Chinese government of a series of measures aimed at a complete ban on its citizens to make any transactions using crypto currency, including with NEO. Therefore, I would not venture to invest in this coin now. To the New Year, when the situation should clear up, it may make sense.

+1 ! At the moment I would not invest any cent in a chinese crypto project. The uncertainty produced by the chinese government is too high. I don't even really understand where they want to head at. What is their strategy about crypto ! Crypto has a huge potential for chinese economy. Why do they make hard to use ? I don't really understand !

It is understandable what China wants. They want to know how much money each of their citizens have. One solution is to block crypto-currencies. They are also going to block any transaction. So no more mining and transfer of coins after the 30th September. They don't want people hide money.
As you know, the banks don't like people putting money outside the system.
So i think NEO is not safe in China. But maybe in Hong Kong it is still okay. I don't know what is going to happen after.

The future of the Chinese coin NEO is still under question. If the Chinese government prohibits the circulation of decentralized crypto currency in their country, including NEO, this will, in all likelihood, lead to a significant drop in the exchange rate of this coin. We will soon see how China will solve this situation.

Usa have cheaper btc ,neo buy i dont see pump.

Yes ethereum of china "BEFORE" but we all know that china bans all crypto related things. maybe let's just wait what will happen next to NEO and what will the developers do.

If the neo was including on the illegal project and that will become a dooms day to the token holders, because buy neo just like you are betting in very big risk. This just the matter of time until the next pressure from pboc will come.

If you are still talking about NEO as an ethereum of  China, then you might have been hyped! The government of that country said it is over for such investment and you are still promoting it. China is not like US. Government decision is not open fir discussion!

NEO is an international project, it is dubbed as ethereum of China because of its Chinese founders and it has the characteristics of eth but that doesn't mean that the project will just be confined in China you plebs.

yes I think it was, now neo is dead, since china forbid the existence of ico :)
hopefully neo can live again

I have to say that your response is kind of idiotic. How would you correlate the banning of ICOs in China to NEO being dead?

Guys, I know many of us are scared by the news from China, but I think no need to panic. Soon the market will be restored again and again NEO to the moon!

Thank you for this info mate. I already invested in NEO and I am planning to move it to the NEO wallet. As I know, when you deposit NEO in their official NEO wallet, you can generate and earn GAS token , which is profitable right? . I think it's proof of stakte , the more NEO you have, the more GAS you can earn.

The pace at which NEO was moving would have set the coin at number two on coin market cap before Chinese government removed the plug. But with yesterday price action, the coin my show some suprise in future.

I am looking forward to NEO,but warried that price is falling...

Well, your're right, but you will Need A LOT of NEO so it's profitable. So if you're only having a bunch of coins, it won't be much. Better use them for daytrading (:

Yea you are totally right. One NEO will generate ohne GAS in about 20 years. Also alot of People think that GAS will be valuable more than NEO once the network is in use so keep that in mind.

Also keep in mind when sending neo you only receive whole numbers. So when you send 1,5 NEO you will only receive 1 Neo. Always male sure to send a whole number of NEOs + fee.

will current China clamdown on ICO and crypto affect the trading of NEO?

Definitely it will. Unless of course NEO come out with other plan that do not include China. The whole wide world is a stage for any crypto-currency. The nature of blockchain ensure that no individual or government can stop it's operation.

Well i think NEO Price Mounts Another Comeback. Due to the Chinese ICO regulations, the NEO currency has gone through a very rough patch these past few weeks. Its all-time high value seems to be light years away right now and the NEO price remains pretty volatile on a daily basis. As of today, it seems things are heading back in the right direction, although no one knows for sure how long this momentum will effectively last. All cryptocurrency markets are still prone to sudden dips, and this altcoin is no different in that regard.

Neo will be back again very soon : https://cryptovest.com/news/breaking-neo-heading-to-korea-after-chinese-shutdown/

 ;D ;D ;D

https://www.cryptocoinsnews.com/neo-founder-da-hongfei-advised-china-ico-ban-govt-collaboration-possible/

I don't know how reliable this source is but it makes interesting read I thought

You do not have to invest if you do not want but still I think it may be a good idea to keep an eye on the project, that way if China lifts its ban on icos you are going to be able to make some bank with this coin in the future since I think it is a very promising coin.

As much as I hope NEO will go up, its Chinese Ethereum. As you know, low confirming a trend reversal into an uptrend! Even, Western countries have much higher hopes for Neo than China does which is supposedly the big opportunity. BTW! Gotta better idea to wait till November for the market to pick up, let's wait after China actions.

It's the best time for people who want to invest in NEO, the price is still below $30 and in my opinion, NEO will rise steady the coming months.

I have been a strong holder of neo. I entered the market of neo when neo is about $8 with 1 eth but as i read more about neo, i become a stronger believer in it. I end up putting 1 btc into neo at $13. It continue to grow in values and i put in another 1 to 2 btc when it is ~$40. So right now, i am actually in red at $20. However, the china fud does not change anything foundamental with neo. ICO is just a small part of neo. At this point of posting, neo already have grown to $26usd with neogas grown to $25 too.

The project being dubbed as Chinese Ethereum is purely psychological. It is what people inclined to think considering its Chinese origins thus failing to see that NEO is a blockchain project which shares the very same characteristics of what a blockchain project is, BORDERLESS!. People think that NEO is confined to China but I'd say that NEO will be wherever it is needed plus NEO didn't exist to purely do ICOs. In my opinion, several days ago was the a perfect entry and now NEO is making a move up and by the time the China dust settles, it is already too late to take part as the price already gone up.

Base on the another rumors from the China, the Chinese government will addopt Neo coin on their projects and it was impact on NEO's price starting going up, please visit the link and taking the data for analysis of the price, i think it is useful for it.
NEO (“Antshares”) Price on Recovery Rally: GOV Cryptocurrency possible Collaboration – China’s Ethereum Prediction https://ethereumworldnews.com/neo-antshares-price-recovery-rally-gov-cryptocurrency-possible-collaboration-chinas-ethereum-prediction/

NEO has something for the future,irrespective of the recent downfalls .its better to keep on holding and possibly invest more.

Yeah! As I said previously, now that fraudulent and fake ICOs are banned from China, they could use a reliable blockchain for cryptocurrencies transactions. And this will probably be NEO, among others.
NEO will raise again!

Remember, remember the fifth of June or December maybe November? stop lol. start, are the nano technology companies using NEO? that explains why you are so ballsy to consider Ξ inferior to that of the private blockchain of NEO, some body else is running the smart contracts on their rigs but the team is grabbing the fee by selling tokens in ICO, where is the infrastructure of NEO? I know where Ξ's is. you need to buy NEO to start mining GAS but for mining Ξ you just need to buy graphic cards.

I have to say that i am a happy holder of neo. I got in a bit of neo when it is $8 and when the more i heard about it, the more love that i have for neo. So when it was about $12, i threw even more money into neo. However, i got into the fomo mode when i start to buy more at $40+ and at $30+ when it start dropping. So now it is at around $20+++ but i believe in the long run, even these $40+ and $30+ purchase will still be in huge green.

its now almost $30 so this is going to be mooning before the year ends and the chinese are more of into buying their own now. there will be more that will be investing to the project now that redpulse has already started. more tokens will be created under NEO's wing.

And now NEO will skyrocket!!!  :D
https://cryptocoinmastery.com/neo-breakout-despite-chinese-threat/

I randomly bought 11 Neo coins a few days ago when it was $19 a coin because I wanted to collect free gas in that neon wallet. Perfect timing! I will be rich when Neo is $5k like Bitcoin equivelent.

Neo has a nice future. Its already gained but there is more rooms to go.
I don't think price will hit btc price but at least it will touch 500$ for my opinion

yes, this is great to watch NEO right now. Still a good buy at $30 for my opinion. If it could just drop to around $20/$25 that would be great, just waiting for some cash to be transfered.

$5K? you're like dreaming in broad day light. it haven't touched $50 yet.
11 NEO isn't going to get you nowhere though. you gotta have more than that for you to live a good life when it hit $5k. if ever that happen, the rest of the holders are also going to be dumping and buying back NEOs. you'd be stuck at a price that you will have to wait for more than 10 years. but more of it.

5k? That's quite funny.  ;D Just make some calculations please and see how much money need to be invested in that coin to have such price  :D

LMAO. Some people are very optimistic it seems. 2017 has been a very good year, let's hope he's right!

I dont bought NEO and I feel good about it. Not going to regret it. I think there are other coins that also have a great or even better potential to make a nice long bullrun!

i don't trust chinese also i bought NEO and make double and sell from 25 usd and now it goes up to 30usd.it s NEO's price.i dont thn-ink it can be doubled again maybe but its come to it own price

It's not about being a Chinese, NEO is a unique product with a active team and community behind it. It's major use being as a sidechain for tokens which uses gas, a pos token of NEO itself.

So, we can aspect it to rise unless better options take them over rapidly.

NEO is an unregistered security that was sold to some USA and EU investors illegally and it will eventually be delisted like all the other ICOs including Ethereum.

Investors are risking legal and criminal culpability for illegal selling on unregistered exchanges.

Study the facts (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2215645.msg22339211#msg22339211).

Crackdowns are coming eventually. China just the first salvo of what is coming from regulators in major nations.


That’s an example of what is going to happen to all ICO issued tokens when the delistings come forth.

And STEEM is still trading on Blocktrades and Bittrex, so imagine the utter collapse towards 0 of the STEEM price if it had been delisted from every significant exchange.

Everybody going to get plenty of warnings but they will ignore the warnings of course.

Hi guys!
This is from "Altcoin Forecast":

https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FdkVmVsP.jpg&t=581&c=1CfmdISpEL5DYQ

already 72k sat.

Not bad...  ;)

If China people support anycoin it can reach x10 or x20  profit ez. Look at litecoin. people dont think it can go up but it still can

Looks like the price of neo will double around the end of this year, or possible even before that. There will always be a way to invest in crypto regardless of what country you are in and good coins will definitely rise.

With Korea banning ICO's as well we can expect NEO to drop again.

Much of the recent rise was due to the increase in NEO from Korea.

Whats the relationship?  NEO in not an ICO.  RPX ICO  is coming but the whitelist closed way prior.

why neo price rising up when china ban all ico and exchange?
what news up about cryptocurrency in china?

I think that is the only sensible thing to do, I know that waiting can be a very exasperating thing but sometimes that is the only thing we can do since we cannot make China to lift the ban any faster, so if nothing happens maybe I will invest in other coins and keep my money working for me in that way.

I am a new NEO investor and, in the past, I invested mostly in Ethereum. When doing a transaction with Ethereum, I can choose the amount of gas for my transaction to have a higher priority to be mined compared to other transactions.

Is it possible to make the same thing on my NEO wallet (NEON or NEO Gui) when I send to an other NEO address?

Thanks in advance!

Chinese ban is just a hype, they will be back in crypto soon with more regulated local environment. They cannot just see rest of the world making profits and their companies sitting ideal :P
so NEO will rise for sure, how much? That only time can say but I do expect it to go beyond $60 by year end! :)

I know we all want to earn big profits and things like that but the scenario that you are presenting is not going to happen anytime soon, 5000 for each NEO coin will mean that the market cap will need to be 250 billion dollars, not even the whole market of crypto has that market cap.

After fork... maybe ?

I totally believe in neo. I have recently get into the rpx ico so i have to use 27 neo to max out the cap in the first wave. However, i immediately buy another 32 neo to replenish the supply. I believe in the long term, neo will shoot up in value and will be a multi billion dollar crypto once again and hopefully can also cross the 10billion marketcap mark. On the mean time, i am also using the gas to buy more neo.

NEO has a very good development team and should not be biased against China. There are also many excellent programmers in China, especially in developed cities such as Beijing, Shanghai, shenzhen and guangzhou. NEO has a better future, but not necessarily in price.

NEO really unexpected to be sped up like this, I'm sorry to sell cheap late last year and now the price feels expensive, I'll try to buy some coins hopefully the price keeps going up.

Best chance for NEO is that the Chinese will allow ONLY a couple of Chinese coins/platforms, and that NEO would be among those.
Chinese gov did this with a lot of internet companies, to promote their local alternatives (eg. Amazon vs Alibaba)

Of course they are going to be back, the question is how heavy is going to be the regulation, if the regulation is too lax then they are going to do this all over again, but if the regulation is to tight then they are going to kill the market of cryptocurrencies in their country, so it is not easy to hit the right amount of regulation.

While all the negotiations are going on and plenty of FUD and altcoin dumping, the price of NEO has gone down to allow you all to get on board. Might be the last chance before it really takes off!

The price of NEO is down because of the China ban. Once China lifts its ban then the Chinese will come flooding all the exchanges and eat up every NEO order under 50$.

No, chinese can always trade what was ban are the ICO, i read a couple of  days ago china will be issuing license for the exchanges, if it went through we may see a rise and price but not like the other time. 

As you said China will be issuing licenses but theses licenses are not issued yet so technically Chinese people can't trade or buy cryptocurrencies in this very moment. Even if China allows trading I doubt that price of this coin will hit 50 dollars mark

Do not get me wrong but we are talking about money here, any business that is doing a good job has more money to show for to their investors, if NEO has a good future then it must reflect on its price if it does not then you are better off investing in a different coin.

its. i wonder when china be back in the crypto world. there is so much needs and offerings in china. its a great market but what a waste the gov ddint want to support it.

I hope you're right as so far the coin has been underperforming, but it is difficult to know what is really happening in China unless one is there in person. The fundamentals for the coins seem legit.

Rumor said China is going to regulate ICO. So if NEO follow the proper regulation, then i suppose the price will go up since ICOs will use this platform.

Good news for NEO

http://usethebitcoin.com/neo-expanding-boundaries-neo-investing-qlink/

I also believe in NEO since I believe in China  ;)

Inline with the economic, political and military development of China which seems heavily affecting "the superpower of the World!", NEO will also affect the existing superpowers of the cryptocurrency world.

What happened to NEO market cap. in 1.nov?

https://image.prntscr.com/image/qP2wBiSySAuSWJ6iPmN1Yg.png

I am on the same boat as yourself. I think NEO will definitely rise, however i think all other ERC20 coins will also rise. Also this pump of alt coins will be led by rise in price of Etherium, that would be my indicator that alts are ready.

NEO on rise again, slowly but steadily heading towards 50 mark. Hopefully this time we breach 50 before end of 2017! Hold onto your tokens and get ready for ride!

there's not much development news from the team besides the conferences they've been. i think the price spikes as of now is due to the segwit being cancelled and everyone sees the opportunity to buy cheaper tokens and some find NEO, though at $26, find it cheaper.

NEO is sure promising. keeps rising. But we need to see what the chinese government will say about it

The BTC fork artificially inflated BTC at the expense of other coins. Now with the news of fork not happening, other coins are on the rise again. I am sure they would come back saying more updates on the fork to keep manipulating the price. Investors in other coins including NEO shouldn't be too worried on these short-term fluctuations and just hold it long.

Good news for NEO I believe - https://cointelegraph.com/news/crypto-trading-platform-starts-accepting-cny-new-era-for-bitcoin-in-china

I think the Chinese government are starting to loosen their grip

NEO soon will be on the top 3 especially when it starts making their own dapps on their blockchain. Easy money would see in the next year

NEO is like the trendy of ETH as how it is once, also the price of NEO is down because of china ban.
To my estimation NEO will take a positing of Top 4.
We can assume a raise of NEO but we need to know what china does.

As of right now, Neo has risen quite a lot after the cancellation of bitcoin fork. It has always been one of my favourite coin. Good dev team, good usage, good investor retainment by providing free gas and no need the hassle to stack etc.

I've been holding back on NEO due to the regulatory landscape, do you guys think it's really a safe investment at this point?

Yes, everyone does not think NEO can be like this, now has entered top 10 cryptocurrency and I'm sure that in 2018 the price will reach at least $ 150, NEO community continues to grow so as to make the future better and very promising.

Am I blind? I do not see any huge news that will turn the world over ...... Where the promised statements? It took almost a week and not 3 days. I'm very passionate about this project. However, this attitude of developers is a disappointment. :(

Things did happen and announced...maybe just not what you wanted to hear. ;)

The last few days have been a rollercoaster, and the community deserves an apology and an explanation.
This has been a big weekend for the NEO ecosystem. Firstly, Ontology, a new public platform for distributed trust networks had its sneak peek in Shanghai. Secondly, we revealed a big development contest together with Microsoft China, with big prizes and invitations to NEO DevCon in Silicon Valley. Thirdly, a few members from our largest community organization, City of Zion, released their whitepaper for NEX, a decentralized exchange which we believe adds exceptional value to our ecosystem.
For us in the NEO Council, these are all big events and important additions to the NEO ecosystem. We wanted the community’s attention, which was why we released a cryptic message on Friday afternoon.
Prior to releasing the “announcement of an announcement”, we had specific discussions concerning the impact this approach would have. Observing projects that used similar marketing strategies, we knew that the community would expect big news, such as an announcement of a large partnership. Eventually, we concluded that the announcements over the course of the weekend will be comparable to a large partnership, and decided to go ahead with the teaser.
We have heard your voice, and understand that the community would prefer it if we refrain from using this marketing approach in the future.
What we did not expect was that people would start to speculate on China regulations. For us, it is natural that regulations would come from the government, and not from an open source project. Throughout Saturday, rumors spread further whilst the NEO Council was occupied with the Ontology reveal and China Open Source Conference.
On Sunday, it came to our awareness that the community had expectations of regulation changes. We stated explicitly in our Slack channel that there will be no announcements regarding regulations and denounced any messages claiming so. Photoshopped pictures that spread false rumors were quickly denounced as well.
We would like to reiterate that NEO is an open source community project, and compliance is a core design philosophy for this project. It is a big leap to go from being regulatory compliant, to a point where regulations are changed to comply with the NEO platform. We urge the community to adjust their expectations accordingly, as speculation of NEO becoming the ‘official’ cryptocurrency of China is a misrepresentation of our true goal, which is to build an ecosystem within the existing legal frameworks.
The “new” thing we wanted to reveal on Monday was the development competition organised with Microsoft and our DevCon in Silicon Valley. Unfortunately, the competition website template was leaked on Friday, removing the element of surprise for the community, and leaving us with an awkward announcement.
Upon reflection, we acknowledge there are many things we could have done better to minimize the damage.
We should have put an end to the speculation sooner. Once the competition details leaked, we should have formally announced the competition.
We could have made it clear to the community when the announcement would be made, and quickly confirmed when all the news had been released.
Members of our team should have had the self-awareness to not place themselves in a position where they may fuel further speculation.
We would like to take this opportunity to apologize to the community for the events that occurred over the past few days, and to anyone who felt let down by our team.
We are currently evaluating our communication strategies in detail, and working hard to improve so that similar issues never occur again.
We have also heard the community’s concerns regarding Ontology as a potential competitor to NEO. Ontology will be a strong enabler for NEO’s vision of a smart economy, and we invite the community to join the Ontology AMA on NEO Reddit to have all your questions answered.
The Ontology AMA will start this Thursday the 23rd of November at UTC 3:59 PM, and more details found here: https://www.reddit.com/r/NEO/comments/7e9w2b/ama_from_today_november_20th_ontology_network_a/
Finally, we’d like to end on a positive note and say how excited we for what the future has in store for NEO. There are many exciting projects coming to the NEO ecosystem, and many exciting events on NEO’s horizon. We stay firmly committed to our goal of building the new smart economy, and recognize we can’t do that without you, the community. We know how lucky we are to have you on our side, and we definitely do not take your support for granted.  

neo.org

That is some investment for you. Time is always ripe and right and it means to be now. make choice or die waiting. take chances and opportunities. looking at the graphs of NEO is very assuring investing any amounts would be fruitful.

To understand better news coming from NEO read here

https://www.reddit.com/r/CryptoCurrency/comments/7eqoye/lets_take_a_second_a_summary_of_recent_neo_news/

If you take few min of your time and read, you will see that NEO have a great future.

However, it has gone up too much compared with NEO. If you need to get a reasonable return, I suggest investing in Achain, another project in China. This project has not yet risen and is a potential project.

Now the price of NEO is very high, I hate that I didn't see your post earlier, otherwise I might make a lot of money.I come from China, but as far as I know, NEO was not very famous in China in August

I think NEO is still cheap my friend! Its a sleeping beast, give it couple of months and you will see its price Sky rocket. $25-35 is still a good entry point. Can expect to 5-10X in future :)

NEO is sh*tty as hell. CEO hired a bunch of random IT kids and claims to run a legit shop. Can't even speak English properly. Wait till the commies arrest him and send him to work the mines for running illegal money laundering business or something lol. Its China afterall. Shady as f*ck

First of all, NEO is a very good project, followed by one of the best in China, but for now, investing in NEO is not a sane option because he has risen too much to invest in other currencies.

i doubt regional communist authorities will play a large role in the future regarding cryptoeconomics, secondly you gamblers are just pushing the price for the transaction costs of those encription platforms with this you gamble like in a casino not just against each other but also against a premine and new platforms that will emerge if the transaction costs of neo, waves, ethereum gets to high
regards

Yes, my friend, it is called by some people Ethereum of China. I am curious if here Chinese guys on this forum that can answer how NEO is called in their beautiful country and how many of them pick this alt.

How do you mean it cannot (shouldn't) be regulated?
Blockchain shouldn't be regulated. Volunteer Crypto projects (not taking funds from people to get started) shouldn't be and can't be regulated.
But ICOs? The companies doing ICOs, taking cryptocurrencies and converting them into local currency to get started? These are still companies operating in common market where all companies follow some regulation. Why would there be different rules for them?

 the reality of the real-world future benefits of NEO cannot be denied. Gov has left projects untouched, as to, allow to continue, in place to progress IMO.

I have invested in Neo because I dont want to regret later as well if it gets big. But last few weeks, it has been falling in rankings everyday on coinmarketcap, all the top altcoins are gaining and Neo already fell to #15. Waiting to see it back on top 10 and hopefully top 5 as well.

Recently Neo have been kicked out of top 10 biggest top coins, but Neo still have big potential to become the first legit coin in China. I think Neo it rise to moon when more Ico run on this platform.  ;)

NEO is a very unusual project. The government of China is trying to control it and this makes it unpredictable so I think this is unacceptable for the market.

NEO will return to the TOP 10. It's a good project, with good market (Chinese market as a difficult entrance and NEO is inside) and really good features (Smart contracts).

We need more patience, NEO is still one of my winner horses and I know that has a lot of potential.

I can't say that I believe in NEO but every coin which Chinese begin investing in becomes attractive and can make a huge growth. I have been watching this cryptocoin since the middle of November and since then it grew up to $47 but then it dropped down to $30 now it's going to correlate and only Chinese  ;) know where it will go in the next month.

This is a very tough platform, and the altcoin is growing very fast as well. Some people predict that NEO will become more powerful than Ethereum and will come to top-3 cryptos in 2 years.

I place my hopes on NEO. And I hope they will raise their asses and start doing smth,t will attract the developers to their platform. It's a cool project. And a lot of people are watching on it. I understand that the Chinese are another nation and they gather with thoughts for a long time but then quickly do. But I want to see already the growth of this coin, not in order to sell, but to take its place in the hierarchy.

Investing in NEO today and playing safely, it proves to be very good for a long hold and also a very promising currency in the current scenario and this is undeniable. It is likely that with these next adjustments that are coming to the currency it goes up without stopping (as happened with the ETH) on the other hand it is still early to say that it has already taken its place. Let's see how her chart goes until the middle of next year, I believe in a strong valuation up to 100 dollars at the very least.

its in my checklist,been waiting for NEO to dip to its hard support then i will buy a lot of it this going to pump in the future price will increase dramatically.

I invested a long time ago,bought mine when it was around $2-3 and now i am waiting for NEO to pump more so i can take my profits now.

wow congratulations. that more than x25. I think you should sell 20-30% to protect your fund then keep hold

I have thought that NEO died yet as currency. I have not this coins but some of my friends were so angry that they are owners of this. At last time price of NEO is quite unstable as I understand.

NEO is pumping now, currently trading around $50! If you remember how ethereum pumped from $40 to $300 in a matter of weeks then you should get some NEO now or be the person who missed out on both opportunities!

I think its better to have competing coins in one's portfolio i.e if there is a negative news on ethereum, Neo will benefit from it.

I agree Neo has huge potential, i hope it will perform better and will not face any scalability issues like btc and eth are facing now and it can be massive in coming years.

I do not want to do anything to PR, but, I would not be surprised if NEO outstrips ETH for price and popularity.

NEO converts traditional assets into digital assets using smart contracts. Digital decentralized assets are protected by law, they use digital certificates on the blockchain, which, in turn, guarantees confidence.
NEO creates identification information in electronic form for organizations and individuals. Identifiers use multifactor authentication mechanisms, such as: face recognition and voice recognition, fingerprinting and SMS.

NEO already hit the $80 line which I speculated earlier!  Now we just have to wait for this giant to roar and hit Top 5. By mid of this year it will definitely gonna happen!  8)

NEO is really worth to invest. It is a chinese coin so you'll think of it as a good coin. But when you read it's whitepaper and understand it's goal and purpose, you are going to like it very much.

NEO gave me a lot of X's, when I bought it, I did not know what history of this coin, now I'm smarter and I understand that NEO is Chinese ETH I think that this coin is all in front only

Yes, very good post about NEO. I'm surprised that there are still a lot of people who do not know anything about this platform. I think now a good development begins. Many projects based on NEO, the growing value of both the coin itself and GAS.

Now in China, a lot of good projects, coins, which are in the top 100 for capitalization. NEO, of course, is one of the most popular. But I also follow the news and quotes of other Chinese projects. China's desire to create its own world of cryptocurrencies is good, but government bans are simply not understandable steps.

Neo is indeed has more potential and has more advance technology than ethereum,it can replace XRP's position if you will ask me.

I'm with those who believe in NEO's potential. If someone asks me what coin to invest in, I would definitely name NEO as one of the best investment decisions.

I'm one of those who regrets not buying NEO when it was just more or less $30 months ago. I was really surprised that its price climbed up to a $100 now. I'm planning to buy even a fraction soon when I have funds.

I am planning to buy the next dip in NEO. Just the sheer number of people in China makes this a great one to take a chance on 

Such dreams will not come true.
Yes, after rebranding ANS to NEO, it got a lot of popularity and big cap (#12 on CoinMarketCap list) but it is very centralized.
Also a big minus that you can't send 10.67 NEO, only integer digits: 10 or 11 for example.

Neo is going throw process of decentralisation, as I know 7 nodes are running by Neo in China and 4 outside (1x Swiss, 2x USA and 1x Australia), 2 days ago was news that will run another node by Dutch telecom KPN. Plan is that up to 100 nodes will run throw NEO partners all over the world. This system allow that Neo is so fast and can do 10000 tps, BTC can do 7 tps and ETH can do 15 tps.

About Neo that is not divisible I don't see any problem and is something special in crypto. For this reason you get for free GAS, which is used like dollar cent. So if you have to send 10.67 Neo, you send 10 Neo and 1.2 Gas (example at current rate). Transaction are also free since Gas is used to transfer Neo.

too, it seems that you need to invest. sorry for the price is not as attractive as before re-branding)) China - a great prospect in the industry kripto-currency

NEO is doing very good at the moment. it's gaining in market cap quietly and steadily. Seems promising to me, personally

Our favorite NEO shows good results and stability . Softly slowly goes to the top . I think this year he will again show itself with a great party and pleasantly surprise us

Neo is gearing towards etherium slot and occupy it's position, but being a Chinese etherium it do have demerits of its own like:- 1) no support from government which bans ico 2) having neogas as byproduct which is going to be a big fincial regulatory issue who don't pay taxes on Capital gains , so let's wait and see how far it goes

Neo is global platform so not only for China and you see still if China ban ICO, Neo have many Ico like Redpulse, Deepbrain, Thekey, Trinity,...

About second point, this problem can be for every POS coin, many coins in top 100 are staking coins even ETH will be soon. So will be problem for half crypto tokens-coins.

NEO is from Chinese but not all from Chinese is bad. NEO is a good platform.

One of the most promising currencies this year, top 3 in marketcap by the end of 2018.

NEO will rise drastically for some reason, people in China loves their product, so NEO will more knowable than ETH and Goverment will support NEO to pump China's Economics

There is no doubt that NEO will rise whether you buy it or not. This coin has a solid project and supported not only by Chinese community but also known company in Asia. As of today even Europe and America are supporting it because of its solid project.

I filled a bag of $neo at $100 ... really happy now

If China bans all cryptocurrency trading then what's the point of a 'Chinese Ethereum'? I thought they would open up a little after the ICO ban and the reelection of the president, but they are attacking even harder.

I agree that NEO is a very perspective project . I'm very disappointed I didn't buy some NEO last summer  :( Asia is a very large market and all crypto from there have a lot of opportunities for evolving and developing .

Disappointed also that I did not move quickly into NEO. I stayed away when some people who invested regretted, and then even many sold off. Some were even doubly disappointed after redpulse ICO also went down. Wish I did not research as long as I did, or I might have not gotten afraid to invest.

Too late now? Good dip or will it fall further? Will China news affect Bitcoin and now NEO too? Ethereum of China, I still do not know where to move or if I should even!

I got some NEOs when it was at around 20$ after the drop due to China's ICO ban, I only regret not getting more at that moment

For me NEO is a coin for long term holding. I think that by the end of the year this coin can become more expensive several times. China will be able to promote this coin in the TOP-10.

Neo is a good coin, but very much dependent on Chinese regulators as i think. While they will not have a clear decision on the status of the crypto currency in China - neo will not be sustainable.

+1000 usd is not a dream for neo till the end of 2018, it is still undervalue and will reach eth, neo should be always top 5.

Didn't know about NEO, but as far as I can tell, every time a Chinese crypto is mentioned, they seem to have either bad reputation or just isn't trusted. Does anyone know if NEO is actually legitimate? What makes it stand out?

Im waiting Neo to be great again! I love idea of chinese etherium because this coin can be big, only problem is regulations and laws. Hope in 2018 China will lift the ban and we all will be neo millionaires.

I think investing NEO and waiting for this huge gain is a long-term situation. I don't think it is gonna pump fast or be like ethereum. Because the market is so unstabil. Investor are concerned about the future. So don't go hard...

From my point of view, the NEO project will be an alternative to the projects of the etherium, of course it was created for this, but judging by the fact that China constantly says that they will prohibit the crypto-currency market, the platform is still developing very nicely this on

Can anyone tell me what NEO has going for it that Ethereum doesn't already do or is in the process of implementing?  I mean, why would anyone choose NEO over Ethereum when ETH already has the DAPP space pretty much cornered?  From my very limited view, NEO just looks like the Litecoin of DApps.

Hi all. I have been found information that NEO is not decentralized. Is it true? Could somebody explain this statement? What do you think?

Thank you

The only thing I don't like about Neo is that you can't send an decimal amount like 1.33 NEO to an other wallet. So micro payments won't be able as I understand, if I'm not wrong.

When to buy NEO? Is it going to fall one day, it's very high now..

I also have sold my ANS during its first ATH but have bough back some when its already NEO for the price of $6 each.  I don't have much money when I heard that NEO was once ANS so bought 70+ of it for $6 each and not it seem like I already profit a lot with it. I thought of dumping it again when it hit $190 last year but I'm glad I didn't.

May be Chinese legislation will allow to make ICO investment more safety

Ethereum reached $1000 within one year from a similar price to what NEO is right now. Also Ethereum is suffering from blockchain bloat so serious ICOs i.e. not scammers of kitty cat collectors, will switch to a high performance blockchain like NEO. Also, the ones across China will choose NEO over ethereum driving up prices even more.

NEO for sure is a great long-term investment! Very promising future with this platform. Get it while you can at such cheap price.

NEO is extremely popular in China and it' is open source and they have two core developers. They also have done a lot of work with digital assets.
I think one of the most important fact is, that NEO has an official cooperation with Microsoft and this is really unique for a blockchain company.

I think NEO is one of the top contenders facing ETH and it will definitely rise in value to be within the top 5 crypto in 2018.

But I think there are some information in here that may not be verified. The microsoft connection may not be exactly a partnership. While NEO do have some working relationship with microsoft, i do not think microsoft has invested into NEO.

But nonetheless, NEO has amazing smart contract tech and it will lined up nicely for 2018.

The transaction rate in Neo is higher than in Ethereum due to more centralized network. The Chinese government loves centralization. Due to this, Neo can achieve contracts with government agencies and will grow strongly in value. So, if you wanna ride on this bull - get on board. ;D

That seems to be the case with a lot of Chinese coins (Ripple, etc). They're very government, banks, corporates and so on based. Yet people still trust them for some reason.

That's a pretty big turn off for me anyway.

they trust them to make money. and anything with government endorsement almost certainly will go through the roof. most people involved in crypto don't care about its core principles, either because they don't know about them or they dislike the idea.

the bigger is gets the more diluted it gets too. you may as well walk away with some profit.

I agree to this, I bought lots of NEO on its dip last december. Road to .1-.05 or higher

Chinese government is the best and the worst thing at the same time for NEO  ;D

We already have IGNIS in Bittrex

I Just love NEO! Absolutely great and wanna hold coin!
One way ticket to the moon, please! :-)

Enjoy the ride guys and girls!

NEO is a good coin, before it was name Antshares and its a good coin. When it was rebrand to NEO, it gone too high beause they are supported by bitmain. As we know bitmain is one of the crypto mining company.

Cryptos cannot be banned. Only the trading of it can be banned.

Banning of speculative trading on exchanges of coins in China could also mean having a more stable crypto currency that could becomes easier to be adopted for actual use = real value and real long-term growth (albeit much slower).
Only once the crypto market have become more stable and less volatile, would China then be more open towards cryptos again; and they might control which cryptos they would allow most likely. Look out for selected cryptos that are working closely with the Chinese government to conform to their rules and regulations, and are happy to do so (such as NEO, Loopring, VeChain, XinFin, and TRON -- an ambitious project which is currently still under heavy development, and so on..)

Here's an interesting perspective article: Fear not, China is not banning cryptocurrency

And a response to my comment over there here:

$NEO airdrop next month
https://www.reddit.com/r/NEO/comments/7wwyrn/neo_holders_will_receive_an_airdrop_of_ont/

I think this background will grow up a little bit , and in the long term the coin is very good , I think even compete with ETH

I miss the redpulse last time due to bittrex didn't verify my account yet. I still have my NEO but this time I might just withdraw them for the airdrop. Is there an exchange that will demonstrate all these airdrop by themselves as I am not able to install NEO wallet yet?

Let China and treats it positively, but I do not think it's a good idea to invest in this currency. China is always positive about any technology, but as for other countries. Other countries choose alternatives.

How will China's pivot back to totalitarianism (e.g. Xi Ping's dictatorship) and it's new state wide censorship affect NEO? 

We won't know until regulations come out.

Binance and Kucoin have declared that they will support the upcoming airdrop. I also have some Neo on Bittrex and I'd be curious to know if they are supporting it or not.

I don't know if it is still about network security but Bittrex is not really active in participating airdrops/forks lately except on the Ignis. I am also thinking of moving most of my funds to Binance or any other top exchanges. 

I started to believe that neo is going to regret many people not investing NOW. It is probably most bullish coin accepted by community. I wish I bought it around antshares times. I heard but didn't care to buy..

I don't like the whole attitude about China and this NEO stuff, I know China have the population but they should not play politics with the Blockchain Technology. The ban, ban story here and there tying to destabilized the whole system was very wrong. In fact I am not happy about them for now unless I change my reasoning about them later.  Thanks

I think NEO is going to be very high. According to my opinion, it can go as far as ETH. So do not wait to invest.

whether token etherium is very good for us to invest in the long run, but indeed I see the token movement is very good and stable. it seems to be a potentially future altcoin.

Yes it can but, only currently entry cost for token is very high. 500 gas is not cheap.

I love Neo. Wallets are really nice designed and transactions are fast and cheap.
Its really interesting to send tokens on neo blockchain. If you have gas in your wallet its free to transfer tokens fantastic!

And another thing, they currently have only 7 nodes, that are owned by NEO council.
So NEO blockchain is owned by Chinese very closely.

But as a platform it is very good, we use it internally like a private blockchain database.

NEO is a really good coin to invest in, it has a huge potential for the growth. I think it is a good idea to buy NEO now at the stage of correction.

Where you heard that there is 7 nodes?
[edit]
replied to wrong message soory!

Finnaly, i did get 501 ONT token that worth $900 today (500 i got because i went to NEODevcon)

I was at first NEO meetup and after hearing that they have only 7 i understood that it will take some time before neo blockchain can be fully trusted and "masternodes" will be given to other trusted companies.

And maximum nodes that network can have is 100, but in real life only 20.

Ok thanx, so when nodes get distributed well this could be more valuable blockchain.

Yeah I think so and totally agree with you. Chinese market is too good for crypto currency. And NEO build by Chinese developer. So it's could be a next ETH in future.

Yup price have dropped a lot, just recent it was $150 and gas was $50

But hey on a bright side, you can deploy smart contract only for $9500 now :)

Neo is already in the world, and although neo is created by the Chinese, the number of fans overseas is not lower than the number of fans in China.

I think NEO is just getting started!

Seeing the performance of the said coin for the past months is really a signal that this will be a juggernaut of its own. The incoming partnerships the development and the projects atttributed to it has convinced many that this is a force to be dealt with too.

too late now if you ask me

Please tell me why you think that?

Does NEO the tokens in the long run is also very has investment value, so I am very bullish on NEO, I bought a lot of NEO, although China's most tokens are only the value of the hype, however, NEO is indeed a very good token.

How much did you bought?
Did you buy GAS as well?

Yes!

Its never too late for new investors because it has good community support like Ethereum. Even if they buy bitcoin, It is never too late for them because they can still get good profit from it. Blockchain technology is the wave of the future and we are still on adoption stage.

Given the fact that the NEO worked on a smart contract basis, people started thinking of it as the Chinese Ethereum. At the time, this helped a great deal with the marketing of the coin. People put together one of the hottest coins and one of the hottest markets and a dream Altcoin investment came about. We can hopefully expect to see much more adoption of NEO as the year moves on. The NEO development team are also really active and have become more engaged with the community. They are also promoting the coin in a number of other jurisdicitions.Whether the price is likely to continue climbing in the short term is hard to tell, yet the smart contract economy is indeed looking quite promising.

One good thing is that NEO is paying lot of developers to build things(Coz), and even create competitions that helpt to grow community and tools to build on neo.

WOW what a nice gift to the crypto space,  all over you GAGAPAY :)

If you look at the statistics for 2017, you will see that the maximum percentage was shown only by NEO, if it does not stop pumping and will continue to move, its price will undoubtedly grow several times.

Neo was one of the golden poster childs that everyone used to show how you can become a millionare in crypto.
There were numerous stories of people buying in during ico or picking it up when it was below $20.
Then, last december, when all prices were at all time highs, so many people were lamboing it up.

But, actually, that wasn't the case was it?
A lot of talk, but the blockchain doesn't lie, there was no indication of massive selloffs indicating that these greedy bastards never cashed in.
Instead, there is indication that a lot has been sold off as prices crash.

And now, here we are with neo being at $30.
Crypto surely is a cruel, ironic demon out to get us.

But, with that being said, out of the hundreds of smart contract platforms out there, neo is definitely towards the top and absolutely stomps eos and ada (they can't even really get there's up and running).

its now almost $30 so this is going to be mooning before the year ends and the chinese are more of into buying their own now. there will be more that will be investing to the project now that redpulse has already started. more tokens will be created under NEO's wing.

I agree with your opinion that NEO is one worthy altcoin to make investment for the future, because NEO in the future may be an alternative to Ethereum, and I'm sure the price will continue to increase with time

Recently Neo have been kicked out of top 10 biggest top coins, but Neo still have big potential to become the first legit coin in China. I think Neo it rise to moon when more Ico run on this platform.  Wink

Thank you for this info mate. I already invested in NEO and I am planning to move it to the NEO wallet. As I know, when you deposit NEO in their official NEO wallet, you can generate and earn GAS token , which is profitable right? . I think it's proof of stakte , the more NEO you have, the more GAS you can earn.

NOW NEO is claiming that new decentralized era of their blockchain is coming. (When your blockchain is so superior that you release node software publicly only after 2 years from Genesis block)

Yes man. thats really great information for beginners and traders. Already i know those information, thats why NEO is one of my favorite altcoin. I do prefer and i suggest to everyone to invest in NEO coin. It has great future. Already i bought some NEO coins. 

Not for nothing that NEO is called Chinese ETH. They are very similar to each other. NEO is a very promising and young cryptocurrency. But its success and future will depend only on the decisions of the Chinese government, so that it will be supported.

I would agree with you that neo can be compared to the ether but chinese one. I like its idea and support it thinking that it has a certain potential to spread its power outside China and become one of the majr coins today

NEO is great and very secure, but it has to evolve into other features, such as scalability. NEO ICOs show that scalability is good, but if we focus on 2015, then it is much behind.

its now almost $30 so this is going to be mooning before the year ends and the chinese are more of into buying their own now. there will be more that will be investing to the project now that redpulse has already started. more tokens will be created under NEO's wing.

Indeed, old buddy, it is called by a few people Ethereum of China. I am interested if here Chinese folks on this discussion that can answer how NEO is brought in their delightful nation and what number of them pick this alt.

I really like how the Chinese handle their business and look after their own businesses, so I think NEO being China's main blockchain will put them in good standing for sure!!

Neo is very good for the long term. technology that is almost identical to ethereum and has a great potential increase as it does its ethereum. i see ico project have started using neo platform in this year.

I'm long term very bullish as well. In order for any project and company to grow big you need staying power, you need to be able to weather the ups and downs of the market. Microsoft, Apple, Samsung and all the big companies all had their ups and downs and it took them a very long time in the market, and many years, to grow to the size they are today.

With NEO/ONT/Onchain setting themselves up as the #1 compliant blockchain ecosystem of China they have the best possible odds of being in this race for the long haul. They are in a unique position in the market, and if the rest of the world wants to use NEO too that's great of course.

There is still a lot of hard work still to be done, and a shit-ton of coding. But if any project out there has the chance to survive and prosper then NEO is one of the top picks for sure.

 I am not sure how high it could go, since as far as I see it, NEO would have to take over momentum from etherium for its price to significantly increase. While I do think it is a promising platform, especially if they manage to establish themselves as the main chinese blockchain platform, I'm not sure how realistic it is for it to surpass etherium so substantially. Any thoughts?

My research since I have gotten in to crypto has gotten me to the point that I have full confidence in the 'crypto' movement (if it can be called a movement). It is literally the Blockchain Revolution. I've invested in NEO and believe in the vision. Everything has been done above board and the development is unfaltering. We are at a pivot point both mentally for some and economically for countries that radically adopt crypto/blockchain tech. China is one of those countries.

I am still a huge believer in neo. It is not done growing and everyone seems to forget the crypto space is still in its infant stage. Allot of the coins we see now will be gone in a few years because they just can’t hack it. Neo will not be one of those coins and I’m hoping be around 1k in the next year or so depending on market cap. But that’s my opinion and everyone is free to have one

It's only few will take this kind of advantage, I didn't. I missed the first skyrocketing, that happened Mid Q2. 2018. But i believe i have gotta another chance to buy NEO at a lower price like $26 today(04-08). NEO posses great features better than Ethereum

 I believe that this coin is as good as bitcoin and over time will only rise in price.

As for me, there are no fireworks:

NEO price prediction for August 2020.
In the beginning price at 43 Dollars. Maximum price $ 49, minimum price $ 43. The average for the month $ 45. NEO price forecast at the end of the month $ 46, change for August 7.0%.

NEO is USD predictions for September 2020.
In the beginning price at 46 Dollars. Maximum price $ 46, minimum price $ 40. The average for the month $ 44. NEO price forecast at the end of the month $ 43, change for September -6.5%.

I businessman the build of NEO and as well the book in the moderate append a hovering volume, whether obtain today it to behind schedule or not championing  i want occupation NEO championing a elongated time whether it not to late.

Well this is bad news for those who have invested at high prices. And also good news for those who are still thinking of investing. Might as well wait for the price to get lower still.

You have to know that NEO tokens in the long run also have high investment value, so I really like NEO.
I currently have a lot of NEOs, although tokens from China will usually only be a laughing stock, but NEO is very good as a token, no doubt.

I think, this is really unexpected to accelerate like this, I apologize for selling cheap late last year and now the price feels expensive, I will try to buy a few coins hopefully the price continues to rise. I hope the price of Neo will go down for a while, and I will buy it.

I like NEO long term, as the Chinese Ethereum.  I've also been watching Icon (ICX) lately, which has been dubbed the Korean Ethereum...

Neo is a good coin, but it really depends on regulation in its country, China. Although they will not have a clear decision about the status of crypto currencies in China, Neo will not be sustainable. The role of the Chinese government greatly determines the direction of the development of Neo.

There is no doubt that NEO will rise again. This coin has a solid project and is supported not only by the Chinese community, but also many companies that are famous in Asia. To this day, Europe and America support it because its projects are solid and have great potential in the future.

We'll never know how high it could go, since as far as I see it, NEO would have to take over momentum from etherium for its price to significantly increase. While I do think it is a promising platform, especially if they manage to establish themselves as the main chinese blockchain platform, I'm not sure how realistic it is for it to surpass etherium so substantially. We would like to reiterate that NEO is an open source community project, and compliance is a core design philosophy for this project. It is a big leap to go from being regulatory compliant, to a point where regulations are changed to comply with the NEO platform. We urge the community to adjust their expectations accordingly, as speculation of NEO becoming the ‘official’ cryptocurrency of China is a misrepresentation of our true goal, which is to build an ecosystem within the existing legal frameworks. The “new” thing we wanted to reveal on Monday was the development competition organised with Microsoft and our DevCon in Silicon Valley. Unfortunately, the competition website template was leaked on Friday, removing the element of surprise for the community, and leaving us with an awkward announcement.

If you look at statistics last year, you will see that the maximum profit percentage is only shown by NEO. If it doesn't stop pumping and will continue to move, the price will definitely grow several times. NEO will get bigger in the future, because it is supported by big developers.

what goes up must goes down and vice versa, most altcoins are losing like 80% from their all time high, if not more, bitcoin seems to be the least volatile

Neo ecosystem is huge, despite the bear market, if some of its dapps becomes successful, Neo will be huge in the future

NEO is really a good choice because it has a good team and is constantly evolving. Although the market is now very unstable.

I have invested in NEO (when it cost about 50usd - as "100% buying opportunity") and now I regret  :-\  :(
I heard serious problems with coin, I am not sure if it is true but I'd probably avoid NEO now
