New to Leofinance? Not late yet...

in LeoFinance3 years ago (edited)

The excuse of it's to complicate to create a LEO account simply doesn't work anymore, as almost anyone seeing leofinance being shilled on twitter by many of us, or getting shilled on any other social media platform, or even through face to face without masks interactions, can create an account in minutes and no need to worry about keys and so on.

I was reading a post a few minutes ago about the leofinance twitter account advertising on twitter the possibility of earning $12 with a simple comment on leofinance, that being mostly attributed to @onealfa if you ask me and here I'm actually confirming with my own experience in getting such fat upvotes on some comments of mine, and that's simply awesome. $12 for a comment...?! And that's $12 not 12 LEO, but how much will such a comment pay out when LEO will get to $1 and above.

The situation was somehow compared with the good old days of Steem when some were able to even score thousands of dollars for one comment. I guess SBD was at way over $10 back then and such payouts might have probably been the result of circle jerking. It's not important though... what's important is that such comments have really existed, and I guess @onealfa has actually mentioned them in the post I read and wrote about above.

STEEM will become harder and harder to earn is what @exyle was saying about two years ago, without having any clue that at some point in the quite near future Steem will hardfork and most of the good ones will transit to Hive. What he was pointing at, was the fact that the long awaited mass adoption will overwhelm Steem and the flood of new users would make Steem a crowdy place and earning the token would become harder.

I disagreed back then and still disagree with him. It's pointless to even talk anymore about Steem, but on Hive, I don't see earning HIVE that difficult at all, if you're a clever guy or gal. You just need to choose your tribe right and you can easily earn about 300 tokens a month or more. I also strongly believe that when a flood of new users will hit us, there will also be quite a few whales among them balancing the content and curation ratio.

What about LEO though? It's one of the most successful tribes on Hive, and we can clearly see new users joining in every week, and the leo stats are the proof to back my words. Has the place become too crowdy and has LEO become too hard to earn, but most importantly, is it too late to join LEO? No, it's not and you can figure that out for yourself by simply counting new posts in one hour on leofinance. It's about 15 per hour on average and I tell you that's warm up activity.

In the beginning of 2018 when I joined Steem there were about 10-20 posts every couple of minutes and low exposure of content has indeed discouraged some fellows and made them leave the platform. I haven't, and who knows for how long I will be around here. Why am I comparing LEO with Steem, since one represents a community and the other the whole blockchain?. Well, since we're talking exponential growth for so many years, why wouldn't I...

Hence, I consider that whoever wants to become a new LEO cub has all the reasons in the world to do that. There's plenty of room to play around and get noticed, posts still have quite good exposure during a day of generated content and more important one can still work on creating his community. We're not that many and it's easy to interact and make friends. It's still early days, and we're probably many months away from where Steem was when thousand dollars posts and comments were a reality.

We'll probably have them on leofinance as well so why quit now... or why not join the revolution. Yes, maybe rewards will be sliced a bit once many more active users will be recorded in the community, but the value of the token will for sure grow exponentially higher. Think of that too, but don't think twice before creating a leofinance account. I don't know how many of my followers on twitter or publish0x will actually do that, but I hope some will, and also hope it's crystal clear it's definitely not too late to do it.

It will probably never will, but why wait for too long, and if you are a simple hiver and haven't yet used leofinance, what are you waiting for. Don't be a fool like me, do it now. Maybe you'll even score a $12 comment, and maybe such comments and posts will be worth $100 or more, once extreme fomo kicks in and crypto prices get through the roof. Don't think twice.

Thanks for attention,
Adrian

Sort:  

The potential of LEO is incredible and things have just started out. With more users there will be more competition, so it might be harder to score some of those fat and juicy upvotes on articles or comments, but one have to understand, and think about, that the distribution of tokens will give you a higher chance to earn something, as you are not as likely to be overlooked with a good distribution.

That being said, 10 upvotes from smaller accounts might be equal to a decent sized upvote from a wealthier account in the near future, and if you are lucky to earn 1 LEO, and LEO is worth $10... Well, you do the math.

Personally, I don't think it's wise to look at the value in USD. A better approach is to look at things in LEO, as LEO is our official token.. And it is LEO that will either go up or down in value over time.

I do admit though, that it is awesome to see content being worth 5, 10 or even 50 USD.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Well said. I do believe that once more users will onboard the value of the token will appreciate as well. STEEM got to $7 because people were buying it and were excited about it and that can happen to LEO to.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

It sure can, as long as we continue to focus on having a good token distribution. None of us would benefit from putting all the eggs in one basket.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Good point.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Leo payouts are great, but $12 comments? - I haven't seen any of those - most of my comments earn zero, just like comments on Hive,and while I did get $23 for my intro post, none of my other posts have earned over $10.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I hope this helps.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yes .004 kicks arse...many thanks😁

That vote was worth 1.15 USD though. In LEO.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Exactly :)

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Right, switched over to Leo front end, and awesome ...my biggest ever comment upvote...see what you mean now!

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

You can't see the true value of LEO when using other Hive front ends ;)

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Leo is like magic. You have to see it to believe it. :D

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Thanks, see what you mean now, back in Leo!

Cheers!

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

the biggest one i had was 2.5$

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Lately my comments are doing pretty much the same but I had such huge payouts on comments a few weeks ago.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Some days good, and other days not so good. Lets increase traffic around here and watch Leo token prices surge

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

That's what we're doing 😁

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

You may not see any of these, But I got my first 15$ worth upvote just commenting on a post on hive.blog. It was also my first crypto earning.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

That is great.

But there is a bit of a thing at the moment of people talking about big comment payouts on Leo like it happens all the time - the same thing happened on Steemit in the early days - I got a $400 payout on one of my first posts, and then I saw a big name post get a $15k payout and thought I was going to get rich quick - it was all very temporary though! By the start of 2017 I was lucky to get over $1 on my posts.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Let's make a mini party there :)

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

12$? When I get $0.3 on a comment is like party hard for me. I’m happy even with $0.01 on my comments or posts.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Don't stop and the big ones will come.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Let's celebrate then.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Good idea. Gracias for curating comments on my post.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

you're welcome Adrian :)

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

My first son will be named Empoderat

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

jajajajja Gracias por hacerme reír, será que estoy de buen humor, pero de verdad que no hace falta :)

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Earning at least 1 leo everyday for my at least 10+ Comments daily is even more satisfying for me. There are days I'll even get to earn about 3leo in a day without posting, only commenting, now I plan to keep the engaging energy up as that is what leofinance is built upon.

Also, if I got the $12 upvote, trust me it's like a dream come true and that will even make others want to keep engaging and read other people's posts, which you even learn from. It's all a win win situation for me on Leo even when I don't get a upvote on a comment. I learned a lot in return.

I wish to see where number of comments are the same as the number of upvotes, and I know leofinance is making that happen real soon

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yeah, 'why not'.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Wow
I'm so happy, just waking up to see this 😀. Thanks you @empoderat for the great tip
I'm so grateful

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

you're welcome :)

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Comments are also a sort of content creation so why not get rewarded.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I was reading a post a few minutes ago about the leofinance twitter account advertising on twitter the possibility of earning $12 with a simple comment on leofinance, that being mostly attributed to @onealfa

I'm one of those few blessed people. I'm super grateful for getting those votes. there's many others like @dalz @taskmaster4450 @whatageek @empoderat @forexbrokr and many more who give out decent upvotes for good interactions.

Now don't go and spam these people. Take a look and only say something if you've got something to add. MAke sure to drop these guys your own upvotes too. It could be just 0.001 LEO. But at least it's putting a statement on Hive blockchain that you appreciate what they are doing.

Comments are the way to go for new users on Hive. At least that's what I think. Have a nice day :)

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I know all of them and yes they curate a lot. Have a nice day you to!

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

enjoy your day too.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I am. BTC seems to be in tune with my vibe as well 😁

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

That's nice to hear :)

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

If I don't answer comments sometimes, it's because I'm human and all that stuff. Sometimes I spent like 2-3h in a row ONLY answering comments Jesus.

Anyway, I think it's worth the effort :)

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I totally get it. Sometimes I'm late to answer my comments. You are probably getting at least 10 times more comments. Thanks for all the effort you put in :)

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I know how it feels. I once managed to score 603 comments in a week. It's highly demanding. I doubt I will ever match that again.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I love the excitement you show for @leofinance. I remember those good ole days on steemit but I never got a big vote. However, the possibility was always there.

Now it's leo's turn but this time with a real community! I'm exicted for the future, both long and sort term.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

That's the way I see it as well. It's LEO's turn.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Not a 'big' vote IMHO, but it's something.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

if you are a simple hiver and haven't yet used leofinance, what are you waiting for

I was waiting for the holidays. Just kidding. But seriously, I just started using LeoFinance and it has been awesome, so far.

This is my third account account on Hive. I create this this to be my official leofinance account since my old one was a smorgasborg of different things and I wanted this to be more streamlined with just crypto and blockchain content.

I also wanted to try out the account creation process. Spoliers, account creation was smooth and easy. I didn't have to wait days like I did when I created my original account back on Steemit. And I didn't have to spend $10 like when I created my second account through @splinterlands.

I used metamask for this one and I was surprised by how fast it was. I just had to approve the metamask request and I was done.

I love the "Curator's Picks" tab too, which is how I found your post.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Thank for sharing your experience. See you around.

My first goal to get 4 LEO in a day. 12$ should be very hard goal for me :)

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Chase it and when you'll catch it it won't seem that hard anymore.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

4 LEO, yeah, I can do that.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Thank you so much! @emporedat

I hope you visit also my posts...

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I used steem initially and now hive. Literally the first time I have logged into Leo finance and yours is the post I see. So I'm keen t explore further and check it out. I don't post often, as I don't have much time to produce quality posts. I am an avid commenter and reader so this strategy might earn me some decent rewards! Thanks for the tips. Let's see how this works out!

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

First time on leo and the first post you read is mine... You've made my day along with BTC breaking $20,000.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

i totally agree with you and in my opinion, there are countless tribes out there that any user will find what he seeks. They just need to find something they like and dive it, work hard and everything else will come! the key is to like the community they delve into as well as like what they are writing.

If not then their days are limited :P

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

We're still in the early days of leo.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I'm new to Leo, just like yourself I was amazed by tips and help you get!
I made a few post since I joined. I'd appreciate if you could go and check them out!

I'm not really new to leo actually, but not an OG either.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Great community! That's all what I have to say! Found a lot of support from the discord group and also here in comments!

I guess let's grow and promote this community!

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

It's never really going to be too late, but there will be a time when getting even the modest amount of Leo (around 1500 or so) I have will be very difficult for someone just starting out. I don't make a whole lot of posts myself, but now I'm getting over 2 Leo a day just from delegations. Well, that's as @sharkthelion. I delegate from that account and power up this one. I made this account to only vote on Leo posts, even though having lion in the name made it pretty fitting for Leo already. haha.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Exactly what I was pointing out in my analogy with Steem.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

ha yeah, sorry didn't mean to just preach to the choir.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

$12 for a comment it not happening always and they are very rare but it makes sense since only a good comment related a specific post should have that reward.

Not all comments are good comments, some do not have enough content or demonstrate a reasoned opinion and these types of comments do not deserve to be "paid" by the community.

The most important thing in a community is the value it generates in knowledge.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Indeed, they are rare, but happen once in a while. Worth chasing them you know...

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Thankyou so much for your exclamation about LEOFINANCE. Yeah this explanation is helpful for us because I'm a new member and strongly believe on LEO. I hope it will be running long way.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Wish you all the best with your leo experience!

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Coming to Leo has made a real difference to me! And I'm also excited about the future!

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Resonating with your feelings here.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Wow! Bro!
I am amazed by your post.
I remember when sbd was 10$. At that time I had 9 SBD’s and I thought it would go more up but you know what happened with steem then.
But now, it is another chance where we can benefit from this system.
I believe leo can be the social media of future.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

At least you learned something from that experience. Don't be greede.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

No I am not!
I am grateful for what I have

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Well, here I am. For better or worse. I just published my second post on LEO, though I have commented some and lurked around a little... I believe in the community and think LEO will end up being the light for the rest of the Hive communities to follow.

For the Record: The day I got to steem I bought 50 so I would have some skin in the game. Cost me $300 USD. Nice timing. :)

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I like your perspective. We have to think of relative terms here. Whether a comment really can earn up to $12 should not be the expectation but the opportunity it provides to have a chance to earn up to $12 is there. Opportunity does not mean reality. People still have to devote time and energy to the blog whether posting or commenting to achieve such returns.

I like Leo tribe due to its valuable content and resouces that continues to be added and updated daily. There is a lot of value within the tribe I Leo token is appreciating because of the value the tribe brings. In the long run its better go grow steady amount of users than to have a boom where users join for the sake of earning easy money. There just is not such an outlet that can sustain healthy growth.

Thanks.

LeoFinance projects itself with an integrative approach that goes beyond a niche of quality content where author and curator win mutually while adding value to the Blockchain Hive. The solid profile of the LEO token has proven to be safe and confident to position itself at over $1 in an era that is showing its joyful abundance.

Seeing $12 in LEO in our comments would be extraordinary; the most rewarding commentary on my blog is no more than $5. Sometimes I think that a substantial commentary is more valuable than a dozen uncriteria and content-free posts that add value to the platform for rich debate and harmonious interaction between author and commentators of common interest. Rewarding comments in a dignified manner is an ideal integration and expansion strategy to grow LeoFinance. As you say, it requires loyalty and commitment to make the LEO token gradually stronger.

I am resuming my blog and this is the first post I read and comment on, so I will review the official publications of the LeoFinance community to start again from this fertile ground of integration.

Excellent post.
