Will NEO pass STRATIS today and even Monero and enter in top 10?
NEO is really interesting. It was hidden behind the scenes because it is in China of course and wasn't really available here. Interesting thing, I heard in a video today that it's been out since 2014 (or that is when they started it, forget) and in a way, the tech is superior to ETH's. Not a knock against ETH, I think anyone who comes out first, they get the advantage of first mover, but the strong disadvantage of trying to fix a car while it is running. Neo took more of their time, saw where ETH went wrong (e.g. one blockchain, speed, serious scaling issues, etc. ) and just improved (or plans to improve) on it.
If you just think about this coin, think of how the Chinese love to support their own stuff, and then look at the incredible tech (and to be fair in some cases tech to come as it is not a finished project yet, but the people behind it are worthy, well known and capable.) - you get something that can really explode. I'm not sure how it will stack up against EOS if EOS realizes its potential, but it probably isn't going to matter as this space is just exploding and China alone is enough to make something #1 or up there.
My "expectations" for NEO are huge, really. Imagine ETH at $12, and more for the Western World (back then), and now enter NEO for more of the world (just cause of where the space is now, with China behind it)....
Neo over $100 at some point this year would not at all surprise me. And if mainstream jumps on board, hedge funds, etc. this is going to give ETH a run imo.
