Altseason is finally upon us and it is the time to onboard as many users + investors as possible. I wish to see ourselves out of the 4 year market cycles we are going through. At the very least I want the projects I am involved in to reach mainstream awareness that is on par with projects like Solana, TON, Pump.fun etc. The fundamentals have improved throughout the bear market. $LEO along with LSTR become the best performing investment for me. LEO is up almost 8X over the past month. Yet this is not a sign of a market top. The rate of growth seems sustainable. We may slow down; but not cease the growth journey.
Trends Are Very Positive
We are at the early phases of increasing interest in cryptosphere. The above chart coves more than 8 years of data. This is roughly how long I have been trading cryptocurrency. Note how the top for "bitcoin" keeps going lower while other search terms don't experience the same drop. This could be happening because more people know what "bitcoin" is. Other search terms cover a wider topic and more complex in nature. Look keenly at the red line for "crypto". The interest in assets other than $BTC is on the rise.
As you can see, none of the indicators that CoinMarketCap think of as signalling $BTC top has been triggered. Thus we have to assume that the increased interest is not of the kind that directly precede the end of a bull market. Colin Talks Crypto Bitcoin Bull Run Index (CBBI) was at current levels before BTC went up 2.5x during the previous bull market. We could expect another 1.5X - 2X from this bull market IMHO.
LEO Became My Best Performer
Most of my investments are HIVE related. I have been calling this the best large scale online community since the time we were known as STEEM. Calling $LEO the best recovery is more apt considering where the prices have been. We are 38.2% down from the All Time High (recorded by @coingecko).
One of the worst mistakes one can make when trading is cutting off the best performers. Just because a Token performs good does not mean the good times are over. Building a project is not the same as playing dice.
- Keep your head down and build.
- Generate real revenue.
- Reach out to other communities and do marketing.
- See prices go up.
We have very clearly seen the results. @leostrategy project is going to amplify the results. Instead of doing one time burns, both the Protocol and @leostrategy aims to put the capital to work and become a black hole for $LEO. They are on track to own 1/3 of the total supply of deflationary LEO.
Think of Lido and Ethena
LSTR is not going for the exact thing. The reason I make the comparison is because they take a base asset and put it to work through DeFi. Nothing beats owning the asset in self custody. That does not mean one will be able to get the best ROI through that. This is why I'm diversified between LEO and LSTR. I like having the control of LEO for voting and LSTR performed even better than the incredible run of LEO.
How many projects can offer zero interest loans in a sustainable manner? How many potential LEO sales do you think will get stopped by having the ability to get a 0% interest loan. The Tokenomics keep getting better and better. As long as we don't spread ourselves too thin, we can aim to accomplish great things. $3 LEO within 2025 is one of those things.
Time to stop thinking about LEO in terms of Hive. Start thinking about LEO in terms of LEO
I think we are getting closer to Sky (MakerDAO) which has a marketcap of $1,832,678,462 at the moment of writing. It is not realistic to think we can achieve 1.8 billion dollar marketcap with a small team. That is where consistent growth over the years come into play. LEO marketcap is slowly approaching the marketcap of LEO 1.0 + CUB + POLYCUB while many DeFi promises are being delivered. Even HIVE is better place because of LEO.
Check out the source and verify the data for yourself. I am fully impressed by what has been built so far and I am willing to bet on the future success of this project.
Passively Earning LSTR
I prefer manual curation and I don't overthink Curation Rewards. The reason I delegate to @lstr.voter is the ability to earn 90% of the Curation Rewards in the form of LSTR. This is a path to Dollar Cost Average in a consistent and simple manner. 10% of the "management fee" goes into buying more $LEO. Using the command "!vote" allows anyone withe over 10 LSTR to vote once everyday (rest at UTC 0) at any Thread they like. We all get to be like @onealfa once a day.
20,000 LEO Staked
@vimukthi/re-leothreads-2zwptuamb
25% of this goes to @lstr.voter in order to DCA into more LSTR. The rest will be used for curation. I do it more or less for fun. I have trading for making money. I may even join LPUD along with the community. The most important thing is that I'm not creating some fake hype. I am documenting my investments and why I act the way I do. It is upto my reader to follow them or not. Whatever the outcome is, they deserve it. I won't claim credit for your success and I will not take responsibility for your losses.
