Neo Price Analysis: NEO makes long-awaited debut into the DeFi space

Neo enters DeFi with Flamingo Finance

Neo is looking to enter the blockchain space through Flamingo Finance, which will launch on September 23. Flamingo Finance will be an interoperable full-stack DeFi protocol

Flamingo was developed in NGD’s (Neo Global Development) incubator initiative. As per its whitepaper, Flamingo will have the following five components:

• Wrapper: Cross-chain asset getaway for Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), Ontology (ONT) and Cosmos-SDK based blockchains.
• Swap: On-chain liquidity provider.
• Vault: Asset manager.
• Perp: AMM-based perpetual contract trading platform
• DAO: Decentralized autonomous organization. A system that runs and updates by itself.

Flamingo Finance will be supporting Bitcoin itself at a later stage.

NEO/USD daily chart

NEO/USD went down from $20.45 to $19.95. Before this, the buyers have remained in control for three straight days, wherein the price went up from $16.98 to $20.45. The relative strength index (RSI) is hovering around in the neutral zone, which shows that the buyers can still take back control of the market and aim for the $21.14 resistance line.

NEO/USD 4-hour chart

The 4-hour NEO/USD chart is on the verge of bearish reversal. The buyers have lost momentum at the $20.36 resistance line and the price seems to have charted the bearish morning star pattern. Following that, the price has dipped to $19.98 and is currently aiming for the $19.86 support line.

Verdict

After three straight bullish days, the bears seem to have regained control in the short-term. We can expect them to break below the $19.86 support level and aim for the $19.30 level as well. However, if Flamingo manages to create more hype in the market, we can expect the bulls to come roaring back and regain control.
