KEY FACTS: The ACE presale has reached its first milestone (5%), officially unlocking a 10% yield for all presale buyers, with the first payout processing. This milestone activates ACE’s core incentive, single-sided staking with up to 10% APR to be paid weekly as ACE forever, allowing early participants to begin earning while the presale is still ongoing. Designed as a LEO-based collateral stablecoin, ACE combines price stability with productivity, supporting staking, LEO-backed loans, and access to advanced tools. Momentum from this milestone also sets the stage for the next trigger at 10% presale sold, which will prompt the release of INLEO’s AI-powered Web3 mobile app, reinforcing the tight link between ACE adoption and ecosystem growth.

ACE Presale Hits First Milestone, Unlocks Yield for Presale Buyers
LeoStrategy has announced a major early success for its ACE stablecoin initiative, confirming that the ACE presale has officially reached its first milestone of 5%. This achievement activates a 10% yield generation for all presale buyers, with the first payout processing. The update marks an important step in ACE’s rollout and signals growing momentum across the wider LEO and INLEO ecosystem.
The ACE presale was designed not just as a capital-raising phase, but as a structured onboarding process into a new financial layer of the LEO economy. Hitting the first milestone validates both the pace of adoption and the strength of the model. Rather than waiting until the presale ends, early buyers now begin earning returns while the sale is still ongoing, an approach that rewards conviction and long-term alignment.
With the first milestone reached, all presale participants are now eligible for 10% ACE yield, a core pillar of the token’s design. This milestone also unlocks ACE single-sided staking with up to 10% APR, to be paid weekly as ACE forever. This means users can stake ACE directly, without pairing it with another asset, and earn yield in ACE itself.

The first payout, earlier set for Monday at 0:00 UTC was delayed due to Hive nodes downtime, but the team is working hard to process the payouts. This establishes a predictable reward cadence that encourages consistency and reinvestment. Weekly payouts also lower psychological barriers for participants, allowing them to see tangible results quickly rather than waiting months for returns. For many in the community, this turns ACE from a passive holding into an active, income-generating asset.
This yield unlock is particularly significant because it arrives while ACE is still in its presale phase, where the token is priced below its long-term target. With ACE gradually moving toward its $1 peg, presale buyers benefit from both yield and a built-in pricing advantage. This will likely inspire more investors.

ACE is positioned as a LEO-based collateral stablecoin, designed to maintain strong price stability while serving as a functional asset across the LeoStrategy ecosystem. Unlike traditional stablecoins that focus solely on payments or value storage, ACE is built to be productive.
Its use cases include acting as collateral for LEO-backed loans, providing access to advanced ecosystem tools, including the APEX AI copilot, enabling single-sided staking for yield, and serving as a stable asset for long-term planning and reinvestment. LeoStrategy is tying yield unlocks to presale milestones, to reinforce the idea that ACE is not speculative hype, but a carefully staged financial instrument with clear incentives and real utility.
Reaching the first milestone is only the beginning. According to LeoStrategy, the next major trigger is at 10% presale sold out, a threshold that carries broader ecosystem implications. At that point, INLEO is set to release its new AI-powered Web3 mobile app, a highly anticipated upgrade that has been teased as a major leap forward in user experience and AI integration.
This linkage between ACE presale progress and product releases highlights a deliberate strategy of capital formation and platform development moving in parallel. As more ACE is sold and locked into the ecosystem, new tools and infrastructure are rolled out, creating a reinforcing loop between adoption, utility, and engagement.
From a market perspective, the first milestone demonstrates that there is real demand for a stablecoin that does more than sit idle. ACE’s early traction suggests that users are responding to a model that combines stability, yield, utility, and clear incentives.
The fact that yield is unlocked early also reduces pressure for short-term exits. Participants are encouraged to hold, stake, and compound rather than rush to liquidity. This supports price stability and strengthens the long-term foundation of the token.
As the presale continues toward its next milestone to unlocking INLEO’s AI-powered mobile app, the ACE rollout is increasingly defined by execution rather than promises. Yield is live, incentives are active, and the ecosystem flywheel is beginning to turn.
