Hello Bobcrypto,
I've been a firm believer in NEO for a while, so take my position with a grain of salt. I think NEO is in a very good position right now, and here are the main reasons that leave me to believe so:
1. The overall dynamic of the whole market is currently bullish. We are the in the middle of a market recovery. This time, the run up is not dominated by BTC, but evenly spread across the market. With $BTC in the 9200 range, we're already seeing $NEO hitting $90+.
2. NEO is a very solid project, with a proved staking system that attracts long-term holder that believes in the project and grow with it.
3. The Ecosystem Phase: You might have missed the first phase, aka from AntShares at a dollar to the current prices. Yet, a lot is still to come on NEO. There were many successful ICOs project already (Switcheo, Ontology now cap #30ish...) and many more to come. NEO is quietly proving itself as a solid alternative to Ethereum.
Bonus: The NEO/GAS ratio is still on its lowish values (~0.350, so you can consider stacking up some GAS too. Even if you don't hold, they will prove themselves useful as most NEP-5 ICOs now accept both NEO and GAS.
