My LEO Goals For 2023
As you all might remember I set a goals mission for myself in the start of 2022 and then after did a few updates on the progress but more importantly the changes and new pushes along the way. That's because goals I set today for the year I understand can very well change however having that goal and path in line is a great way to stay focused as well as motivated during a bear market. 2022 was one of my most successful years on Hive/Leo and I expect to triple that if not better here in 2023.
I firmly believe that at least the first half of 2023 will be a bear market with a possibility of a bull coming summer. However also realize it could be longer and not even come this year at all. If the bull market does in fact kick in you can bet ya these goals of mine will change and be adjusted but if not here are my plans for another bear market year. Remember when making your own goals that while that end of year gold is your focus markets change, platforms change and new opportunities come around so make sure you leave room and understanding to pivot when you feel is necessary.

My LEO Power Goal
Every day I stack Leo, buy some and overall just stack the heck out of it while also buying a little in defi and the markets in bulk orders when/if it makes sense. Right now I'm sitting at 75,000 roughly and my goal is to double that to 150,000 AT LEAST in order to hit APEX Lion. This means doubling my stack at least but to be honest if we are in for a bear market all year I could see myself crushing that goal and I would instead put myself at a 250,000 LEO powered up at least in 2023. (Granted that could change if/when that bull market kicks in)
Breaking It Down
Right now I make around 75 LEO per day in curation rewards, author rewards and then some from delegation of Hive as well as having some LEO Miners. That pushes me to about 100 LEO a day I know I can make. That in itself will at least take me to 110,000 LEO by end of year which means I need another 40,000 at least. That means my days will remain the same however when threads kicks in I will be using that not only heavily myself but also supporting the promotion of it to get others in and using it. This very active commenting etc should net at least a little extra leo but I feel a bulk of it is going to have to come from DEFI and APRs from other places.
As for monthly goal I'm going to keep doing what I did in 2022. Why? Because it works! So why mess with a good thing if it works instead I'll just build on top of it now with threads activity.
The Overall Plan
In short this takes care of rainy days because the LEO I have I know I'll hold on to and continue to curate with it. For me right now with the current price of crypto the $ values don't matter to me and instead I'm more focused on token asset accumulation for what the next bull market kicks in. That's my rainy day plan is to just keep stacking there's honestly no reason not to. Yes it's time and it's risk hoping that the price will go up but LEO has made some recent adjustments that make be a bull again on LEO.
The Short Term Goals
I feel like I covered this a bit already. However a semi longer term goal is to hit 100k Hive as quickly as possible. At that time I'll most likely delegate another 10% of my hive into Leo to help with onboarding and supporting the project. With that I'll get around 50 LEO tokens per day kick back which is another rather quick short term goal I can strive for here. I could very well dump all of my hive into LEO's voter but well I kind of don't want to lol Doing that would have net me over 250 LEO a day in itself however I still want to get that little bit of HBD and also that hive power while it's at some really low prices and stock that up as well. It's going to be a balancing act for sure however with those two things being my core focus in 2023 I believe I'll be sitting in a good spot.
If things start to rally on the Hive end that means I'll be earning more HBD at which time I could take some of that monthly HBD income and dump it into LEO for some faster stacks or put it into CUBDeFi and earn there while pulling some out from time to time in LEO.
Overall I'm investing in LEO because it's one of the few front ends that continue to strive to build even during the bear market. I also like that they are refocusing on things and understanding that things change. The DeFi run was fine but right now that's over with and many platforms including CUB are running into major issues with high print rates. LEO however has a base line emission and I only see more and more people wanting it and using it moving into 2023. In a bear marketing there are still bulls/LIONS!
