PLZ explain me few simple things & questions, like I am FIVE.

IF I buy 1 LSTR for 4.25 Hive, what I can do with it? (Besides selling it for 0.7 Hive)

How exactly can I expect to benefit from holding this 1 LSTR?

If i have 4.25 spare Hive, WHY it can be beneficial for me buying that 1 LSTR, instead of buying ~42 LEO, and staking them on HE for curations, or on Arbitrum sLEO for earning USDC?

Why "exposure to Leo ETF" would be advantageous versus just holding LEO?

WHO exactly is/are hiding behind @Leostrategy account?

To be honest I don't know about LSTR too much. I just heard the name and I haven't done any research or analysis one it. I will do it when I will get some free time. I hope I can get some idea from the reply of the post. I am here to read the replies😅.

Very simple questions. Interested in how they answer it.

So this is just my take. But its the same idea that drives people to buy MSTR instead of $BTC.

And as of who are behind it, I guess it has to do with Hive politics that they wanna be anonymous. I can totally see why.

I don't even know about MSTR.

I see Khal strongly in support of the idea the Leo Strategy team has, and as long as he supports the project and has acquired thousands of $LSTR, it means it can be trusted. Also, he previously mentioned in one of the AMAs that he had met with the team and approved of the idea they have about LSTR.

Would you bet Khal is NOT a member of Leostrategy team?

I certainly would not.... 😀

What matters most is the transparency of their actions and the value they bring to the community, rather than who exactly is behind the curtain. But, it’s a mystery for now.

All questions are equally important to have the answers.

We try our best to be open and transparent as we can. All transactions are open for anyone to watch on the chain.

These are solid and much-needed questions.

I’m also looking forward to clear answers from the team behind @leostrategy.

Understanding how LSTR stacks up vs direct $LEO staking, both on HE and sLEO, is crucial before making any move.

Especially want to know:

. Where’s the upside for small holders?

. Who is managing the treasury?

And most importantly, what makes this setup more efficient than DIY compounding?

Let’s hear the full picture.

  • Where’s the upside for small holders?
    A leveraged position on $LEO and you know that we never sell the $LEO back to the market again. Thats a good for every $LEO holder.

Our best example is to tell you to look at what MSTR have achieved and compare to holding $BTC.

YES! These are exactly my questions too! 🙋‍♀️ The math doesn't add up - why pay 4.25 HIVE for something worth 0.7? I need someone to break this down because I'm genuinely confused about the benefits here.

We count on $LEO and $LSTR to be worth more in the future. When we launched we set a price that we believe would help us buy as much $LEO as possible.

You can always see on chain what we do with our funds.

All of these have been answered in their blog posts and threads

You need to look at @leostrategy through the same lens that people look at Microstrategy. Why does anyone buy MSTR? Because it's a leveraged ETF bet on the price of BTC

That's the point of LSTR. But the real mechanics only grow with both time and fundraising. They need to sell the LSTR tokens that are for sale on Hive-Engine. As those sell, they acquire more LEO. The LEO they acquire helps them acquire more LEO (flywheel). The same way that Microstrategy buys BTC which then allows them to buy more BTC

  1. it will go up in HIVE terms (and so will LEO)

  2. 1 LSTR is a leveraged bet on LEO. Their mandate is to find ways to earn revenue and acquire more LEO with the revenue they earn (post earnings, USDC from sLEO, etc.)

  3. Personal preference. Buy LEO if you'd rather. As LSTR grows, it will be like owning a leveraged ETF that owns LEO

  4. Leverage

  5. Doesn't matter

I will try to explain, but if you want further details we recommend you to read our blogs posts in detail.

  1. We set a initial price when we launched and we choose this price because we want to grab as large pot of $LEO as we can for our holders. As we get more capital, we buy more $LEO and never sell, but when all our LSTR is sold out we anticipate that each LSTR will be worth more since its backed by more $LEO.

  2. LSTR's leverage and volatility offer greater upside potential (and risk) compared to direct $LEO ownership, appealing to risk-tolerant investors.

  3. Its a personal preferance, maybe you wanna diversify inside the $LEO ecosystem like people do with $BTC and MSTR.

  4. Because of leverage.

  5. We have decided to be anonymous for several reasons, might change in the future. But right now the decision hasn't changed.
    We hope that our actions will speak for itself and that we have supporters that can be exposed without consequences.

Hope that clear up some of your questions.
