📈 Neo ($NEO ): Between internal crisis and AI ambitions
The future of the “Chinese Ethereum” today resembles an action drama. Will technological progress be able to overcome managerial chaos? We analyze the key factors shaping the price of NEO in 2026.
🛑 Risk: Founders' war
The public conflict between Da Hongfei and Eric Zhang has become a cold shower for the market. Accusations of opacity of Neo Foundation finances and excessive control over voting are hitting the main thing - trust.
• Consequence: While there is no clarity in management, investors are cautious, and the price feels pressure due to reputational risks.
💰 Argument “FOR”: Powerful treasury
Despite the strife, Neo remains one of the richest projects. The treasury of $ 460.8 million is a reinforced concrete airbag.
• What to expect: Annual audits are promised from 2026. If the Neo Foundation makes its finances transparent, this could be a powerful signal to reverse the trend. There will be enough money for the development of Neo 4 for years to come.
🤖 Technological breakthrough: Betting on AI
Neo is actively transforming into a hub for artificial intelligence:
• SpoonOS AI Skills Marketplace: A marketplace for modular AI agents on the N3 blockchain.
• Neo X: TestNet update with the introduction of ZK DKG (Zero-Knowledge Distributed Key Generation) to increase privacy and scalability.
• Vision: The “agent-first” strategy can attract a new wave of developers in the AI x Crypto niche.
⚠️ Conclusion
Neo is now at a transformation point. Success depends on one condition: can the team solve its internal management crisis? If so, the colossal resources and AI innovations can push the price up. If not, technologies risk remaining "frozen" in conflicts.
