Perhaps the real secret is that LN is a great token to get now while it's UNDERVALUED. I never thought LN could maintain 1 or 2 HIVE each, given it's limited utility, but perhaps it's worth more than 0.4 HIVE? It could go either way, either LN becomes 0.01 - 0.05 like most tokens on the market, or the dev (ehem) may come up with some LN utility that will make it be worth MORE than that. Maybe even the selling price of 2 HIVE? Or more? Hmmmm.

Question is this, what is LN really worth and what will it be worth in the future?

I paid about $200 USD worth of HIVE into Listnerds and earned about 24K listnerd tokens. Doing the math, that means I spent about 0.02 HIVE per LN token through posting and verifying mails. That seems undervalued, but that's typical of what the nerds have paid to help them EARN their LN tokens.
