I'm a big NEO hodler myself and believe that it will be one of the really big blockchains out there when the smoke clears , sometime late next year.

Besides the obvious potential for a price pump when China puts some ICO regulation in place (likely in the next few months) - I would encourage anyone thinking about investing in NEO (or anything else for that matter) to really take a look at the technology, understand it and be clear on how it's different from other projects out there.

Don't buy the hype - buy based on the potential and probability of long term success (long term being 1-2 years in the crypto space)

Only then can you fully appreciate your investment and hold on to it in bad times (like when NEO drops to 15 USD). The winners in this game are the people that identify the profitable projects (more than 90% will likely fail), are convinced abt their investment and HOLD ON to it.

I have been in the crypto space for quite a while (got ETH under 10 USD) and NEO is one of the most exciting projects I've ever seen.

But don't take my word for it. Read white papers over and over again until you understand them, speak to the teams and make up your own mind.
