WLEO 2.0 or Curation? I'll probably go for a 25-75% split!

I've been trying to figure out how much of my stake to put into the WLEO 2.0 Pool.

Details of the pool are in this post here.

I calculated a couple of weeks back that my curation return was around 26%, and I imagine this will stay pretty much the same going forwards.

However, having played around with the the WLEO liquidity pool returns simulator (which is a real thing btw, despite sounding like something out Hitch Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy), the returns seem a bit better.

The simulator provides different returns based on some randomly generated 'other pool providers'.

Below are my returns for a simulated 5K LEO staked in the pool for 110 and 120 days respectively - the return averages out at around 36% which is in technical investment terms is proper tasty.

.

Don't forget you have to minus the ETH fees for moving and staking your tokens, so minus a few dollars for that and we've still got a WLEO return comfortably in the 30% region.

>26% return with curation for larger stakes?

Now that 26% return curating other people is probably going to remain the same no matter what you stake, HOWEVER, if you're also an author on LEO and you throw in one self-vote a day that gives you a percentage boost.

Also, if you leave a largish stake powered up, say >20k (the more the better) you attract more votes just because you've got a large stake which is visible - come on, you all know the way it REALLY works around here.

The last two factors combined, for me, means it's probably worth leaving most of my LEO powered up, and putting a smaller percentage in the WLEO liquidity pool.

Also, I'm more of a writer rather than an investor, I like blogging, I like to have an active stake, so I'll probably leave most of mine active so I can use it, and put 25% in the pool.
