- Passive income because of rewards from DPOS system ( approx 10-15% / Year it's always more than in a bank);
- Team is hiring lot of news dev ( you don't hire when your product is not serious ) ;
- Team is not focusing on marketing but on deliver a great product ;
- Community is helpful ;
- Lisk has a chat which you can meet official staff and other stacker as you for lot of news ;
- Lisk is still under 10$ so to me its a cheap price ;
- Lisk is going to allows us to create our own blockchain ( side chain) with Javascript language : millions of developers ;
- Lisk will be an ICO platform that means that you will need to buy some lisks to invest in news crypto : ask/offer law ;
- Lisk use better coin ( ERC20 : Schnorr signature-based Ed25519 ), faster and more secure as ETh or BTC coins ;
- Lisk is valorized by more half a billion dollar with no MVP yet ( SDK release in next months/ weeks?) , that means lot of people are interested in ;
- Lisk is not coded on ETH network or an other alt coin , it has it own blockchain ;
- Lisk has a lower inflation as eth in long run , that means rarer coins ;
- Lisk is rebranding itself it means that they are going to focus on marketing after product release = more investors coming ;
- Lisk is going to be listed on more chinese markets after SEGWIT 2X it means more customers in world ;
- Because of DPOS system lisk forging cost more less power/electricity than an ETH or BTC mining . In long run it will be an argue.

- Strong business and leadership focus..... Max Kordek and Oliver Beddows appear to me to be extremely business and leadership-oriented. On Max, I have the uptmost respect for anyone who can give a good account of themselves in an interview all the while battling against a head cold and the worlds smallest microphone. See here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rbIG4nAjTtg
- Check out that active github......
https://github.com/LiskHQ and https://github.com/orgs/LiskHQ/people
- Impressive team....
https://lisk.io/team . All of them are full-time and paid.
- Strong language focus........ Only Javascript/ node.js. Ten if not hundreds of thousands of Javascript developers exist out there. This will allow the use of existing skills without requiring developers to learn unique techniques to create blockchain apps. Thus reducing cost of development, time-to-market and has lower barrier of entry to outside developers. Think of Androids ease vs Apple's iOS.
- Straightforward daap creation...... If you want to develop a dapp in Ethereum you need to connect the functionalities of several smart contracts. Thankfully, not so with Lisk.
- Ease of use and low barrier of entry.........
- Lisk could very well be seen as the 'Wordpress' of blockchain once the SDK (software development kit) launches.
- Your own personal blockchain...... In Lisk you build an entire application which is running on its own blockchain. You develop your own new crypto-currency platform with an extended feature-set, the platform itself is already finished and provided by the Lisk SDK. As a developer you just need to implement the necessary new features on top of the already existing platform.
- Lisk network/mainchain protection........ Lisk has "rules" that they ask contract/daap developers have to follow to avoid breaking consensus. If you as a developer make a mistake and the consensus is broken, then the dapp does not need a hard fork, because the dapp is only running in a sidechain. The Lisk network/mainchain is left unharmed.
- Speed.......
- LISK uses Schnorr signature-based Ed25519 scheme which is more secure, much faster, more scalable than secp256k1 which is used by Bitcoin, Ethereum, Stratis. This makes Lisk scalable for verifying hundred thousands of transactions per second.
- Rebrand and marketing about to ramp up..........
- Firstly utilising Rlevance, a renowned brand strategy consulting firm whose impressive client roster includes Mercedes-Benz, Microsoft and easyJet. Then the design agency, Taikonauten, to define Lisk's visual brand identity and corporate design. Get ready for lots of folks in the crypto world to be talking about Lisk.
- Strong funding..... Max has stated that the LISK team has about 40 million US dollars to fund the development and marketing of Lisk. This is no pump and dump; Lisk is goning to be around for a long time.
Lets gooooooooooo!!!!!
