Was My Faulty Steem Conversion A Blessing In Disguise?

Two weeks ago I decided that all my steem was no longer useful to me and I wanted to buy Leo with it. I believe Leo was .29 at the time.

I wasn't sure how to do it but found swap app on someone's recommendation. I was kind of emotional about it because I've had steem forever but haven't been active since the civil war.

But I felt it was time to get rid of baggage and move forward with the braintrust behind LeoFinance. I was going to convert all my hive as well and support hive from a layer above.

Well, not quite sure what happened but 5,600 steem was refunded from the transaction and I didn't even know until today. I thought I was 100% out of steem and was even kind of bumbed as I saw the price go from $.15 to $20 since I sold.

I bought leo in chunks with my hive which I thought included 8300 converted steem so I don't really know how much of my holdings made it to leo but my intention was put all my steem/hive into Leo.

When Leo started to get to expensive I stopped converting. I figure there will be a pull back or I would continue after the snapshot.

My desire to convert my hive to Leo is still resolute but I was shocked to find out about my remaining steem. So I wonder what I should do with it. I am not diversified at all. I have a beggars amount of btc and the rest is steem/hive/leo.

I'm thrilled with my find and even if it had converted properly to hive for my Leo buys, I don't think I would have spent it all on Leo as the price went up. There simply wasn't enough liquid leo available when I was buy it. So, I don't feel like I missed out on more leo at that price.

So I'm wondering what to do with that steem during this market. I could buy most of 1 eth or do something else. Not sure hive makes sense for me. If there is nice correction in btc I could go there. But, I'm looking for some non-financial advise and wodering if this flubbed transaction and new realization that I still have 5600 steem is a blessing in disguise.
