The books have closed on another week for LBI, and it's time to look at our positions and see how we went this week. There is a little bit of reshuffling happening this week, some more tweaks really.

Here are the asset prices at cut-off time for the report:

And here is last weeks report for comparisons:

Assets.

Hive account@lbi-token wallet

An addition to this wallet this week, with the re-opening of a PWR pool position. We will scale up this pool over coming weeks, as the HIVE in the Hive account@lbi-pwr un-stakes. This is simply being done to boost income, basically the only yield available these days on PWR is in the pool. The other change here this week is we bought more DUO and moved to 2366 total. Aiming for a lot more, but the cheap DUO available at 1.25 is all sold out and now we will have to buy at 1.5. Lastly, over the coming wees the BEE will unstake and be used elsewhere. Likely in the Cent wallet, or sold for other things.

Hive account@lbi-leo wallet.

From last week the main change is I un-staked the sLEO on Arbitrum and bridged is back to HIVE. Moved a portion into other things, and hold some liquid for now. With no clarity around when staking rewards for sLEO will be re-started, It seems a waste to hold a position there. Once rewards do re-start, I'll assess whether it is worthwhile to move some (or all) of our LEO over there, but for now we are back 100% on HIVE with no off-chain assets.

Lot's of missing yield from the Hive account@leostrategy tokens this week, which I'll break down more in the Income section below.

Hive account@lbi-eds

No news this week, another 48 EDSI of asset growth. That's 48 HIVE value added to our balance sheet, for zero effort.

Hive account@lbi-dab

No new funds this week, we grew organically by 45 DAB and 33.7 DBOND for a total growth of 78.7 HIVE value. I'm still keen to push this up to 100 per week, but the market has moved a bit for these tokens and I don't want to overpay. The lowest cost way to get to the 100 is by holding more staked DAB, minting DBOND, but I don't want to just stake it all and cut off the daily income either.

Hive account@lbi-cent

A small amount of additional funds was put into this wallet over the week. I've added a new pool to the mix, being the fairly new CENT/SWAP.USDT pool. Hive account@anadolu and the Hive account@centtoken project are keen to build more stable-coin liquidity, and LBI can do our bit to help by building our share of the pool. Also, I added a bit to the LEO and HIVE pools. Building more assets into these pools is a decent way we can grow our "non-LEO" income to make sure we don't become too reliant on one source of yield (Leostrategy). More funds will go in here in coming weeks.

Hive account@lbi-pwr

The power-down continues, and much of the remaining HIVE here will be paired with our PWR in the main wallet. Closing this wallet is not exiting the investment, more a re-shuffle and change of strategy. The pool is really the only way to get yield in the PWR project these days, with the delegation program ended. Staked PWR does earn a very tiny reward, but while Hive account@ferran has the project in maintenance mode while he is busy irl, the pool is the best option.

Totals

We end the week up around $700 from last week. HIVE has improved a bit, and LEO has dipped a little, but overall we gain a bit.

Income

Disappointing this week, with a total of 8 yield payments missing from Hive account@leostrategy across the week. Our last three TTSLA payments (8/1, 9/1 and 10/1), TGLD on 5/1, 8/1 and 9/1, and TNVDA on 9/1 and 10/1 have all been missed. This has obviously significantly reduced our overall income for the week.

A week that should have been so much better. Anyway, we burned another 17.681 LBI this week.

Here is my tracking of all our missing yield payments from Leostrategy:

Liquidity

Last weeks trade volume was a bit higher than this weeks. 22,246 LBI in pools at the end of this week, up just 68 from last week.

Conclusion

A steady week overall. A bit annoyed about the yield missing from our Leostrategy tokens, but they have stated that all missed payments will be caught up. Maybe next weeks income will be better, but this goes to show why I keep trying to diversify our sources of income, so we are not relying on a single point of failure. For now the "T" assets are a huge portion of our weekly income, but I'm working to restore balance.

Thanks for checking out this weeks update. Have a great week everyone.

Hive account@jk6276 for LBI.

Thanks for the update. Looking forward to the price of LEO getting back towards 1:1

1:1 would be nice. Might be a way off it seems. Not sure there is many with funds to spare for future RWA launches (we won't be doing much in the future, have a fair chunk of our balance sheet tied up already).

If sLEO rewards restart and are decent that could be a catalyst. Not sure what dry powder Leostrategy is sitting on, I do know they have slowed down their buying, seem to be holding out for lower prices.

Could be a long haul back to 1:1 tbh. I hope I'm wrong.

All we can do is wait and see I guess!

Building more assets into these pools is a decent way we can grow our "non-LEO" income to make sure we don't become too reliant on one source of yield (Leostrategy). More funds will go in here in coming weeks.

As I've said many times already - I don't trust them at all. I wish we became more of a Leo denominated fund instead of Leo Backed fund. We should be treated as a major holder, not as cash cow.
Does Leo on Hive give any rewards for staking (like curation) ? I guess not. So it's time to unstake it, swap the liquid for something else - Hive preferably.
I don't use cent and don't see people en masse using it so I would swap 20% of Leo into cent and then pool it with ETH and BTC.
As for the rest I would swap it for Hive and then powered it up. Swapping Hive for HBD at current rates seem not very efficient. I'd think about a way how to earn more HBD. Maybe we should think of an author for post content for 40% post rewards?

To make things clear I'd leave Hive account@leo.voter delegation the way it is now - we need some Leo to operate, don't we?

PS do you have SOL H-E tokens?

There is LEO for curation on staked LEO - it is funded from site revenue (premium subs mostly) and return is quite low. We delegate our 100K leo to Hive account@lstr.voter and receive around 0.5-0.6 LEO per day in curation share. Chose to delegate as I don't have the time to curate properly.

We will continue to hold our remaining 100K LEO long term.

Probably won't be putting significant funds into further RWA pre-sales as we have put significant in already and I'm keen to keep balance in the fund with yield in other areas.

CENT is small, but it continues to operate and try to grow and improve it's tokenomics while so many other projects are closing down, that's why I like to back things like it and DUO. For a healthy layer 2 economy to grow, projects need to support and collaborate. CENT is one of the most liquid tokens (aside from swap.hive and bee of course) on Hive Engine.

HBD income would be nice, we have Hive account@no-advice posting most weeks for a 50% post reward, but our post payouts have declined noticeably lately so not sure more content would make a lot of difference.

Yes we hold 25 SOL on Hive engine.

My main goals for this year for LBI are more Income, and more liquidity.

Thanks as always for your input.

Disappointing this week, with a total of 8 yield payments missing from Hive account@leostrategy across the week. Our last three TTSLA payments (8/1, 9/1 and 10/1), TGLD on 5/1, 8/1 and 9/1, and TNVDA on 9/1 and 10/1 have all been missed.

Nothing new here, same happened with Leo.voters payment earlier. Based on my past experience, I wil not say LEO will succeed or not, I will just say LEO is not transparent enough now.

!PIZZA !LOL

Hopefully the Leostrategy team will resolve whatever the issue is and the yields will become more reliable.

Leo.voter has been very reliable for a while now, they have fixed it's issues. I'm sure leostrategy will sort this out.
