"SLP traded at around 0.02 a token. With five accounts, I could earn 800-1,200 SLP a day, or around $15-25. I expected to break even after two months." But by May the price of SLP had fallen sharply, and a token is now worth around $0.0056, a steep decline from the peak of $0.4 it reached last July.
