For simply holding these coins in a wallet you generate dividends known as GAS. Check out
https://neotogas.com/ to see how much GAS you can generate. GAS today is worth $35 USD so not a bad dividend to receive. Also this is 'China's Ethereum' being highly scalable at 10,000 transactions per second!
i see but neo isn't the chosen one only because its generating gas. the chosen one from smart contracts is ETHEREUM. If neo would be the chosen one it will be behind btc at cmc.
lets wait and see if ada will be the chosen one.
