Here is the post for the Daily Leo Talk. In preparation for the upcoming Microblogging features, this is a good place to start conversations, posts charts, memes, trades, or anything else that comes to mind.
Let us boost our overall numbers by posting lots of comments throughout the day. Spread the word to get others involved.
It is a great way to stimulate engagement.
We can think of this as a Reddit type engagement thread. We are not dealing with long form content so topics of discussion can start off with a top line comment. We can fill in from there.
We are open 24/7/365.
Stay Informed About LEO!

How we can improve fair distribution of Leo tokens rewards? because it feel there are many post only have few words almost 100 words nothing special inside have got lot off rewards, on the other hand many posts are have vey nice useful and original content but still not noticed and get any upvote or reward
I mean some posts are overvalued some are undervalued how we can create a balance I love to know about that?
We do our best but there's so much content for one person it's near impossible really though you could join CUB and make your income there and convert it into LEO.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Dear do you mean I should stop posting on @LeoFinance and starts investing in cub while all others doing both at the same time
I don't know much about cub finance and also do not have extra capital to invest in it, creating content and doing other activities on hive blockchain is my area of interest and I love to do it, I really enjoy it
Well, this is a first step. Becoming active in this room (for lack of a better word). If you start participating on a daily basis, your name will get known and people will start to follow you and watch for your posts.
There is no "quick" way to do it. This is not a get rich quick platform. This is long form blogging. It takes time and effort to build up a following and reputation and there really are no shortcuts. If you stay consistent and vote, comment, and engage with the community, you will grow your account. Some of your earliest writings will most likely not get as much attention as you think they deserve, but as you continue to put out quality comments and quality content, you will get noticed and rewarded for your efforts.
Many of the people you see getting "big" rewards have been here for years. It's just the way it is. Longevity and engagement are rewarded.
That said, you should actually view this as a positive not a negative. One thing I can guarantee you is that if you put in the effort, you WILL be rewarded. Period. If you work at it consistently for a year, your account will grow exponentially. It's that simple. It's actually nice knowing that if you put in the effort, the results are certain.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I agree.
But I have actually started to put less time into searching the new posts section because 95% of what I find is plagiarised or cross-posted on other networks.
Honestly, I just can't be bothered most of the time.
However, if new users put the time into commenting, getting involved and proving that they're consistently here to build value to LeoFinance, then I do notice and start rewarding.
As you can see, being successful here takes more than just writing 'quality' content.
You have to market yourself and get involved in the community.
Consistency and being social is the key.

I think when a new user join hive blockchain and starts using it, it will take some time to understand what is considered as plagiarism on hive and what are the basics to post content on hive, mostly user come from Twitter, Facebook, YouTube and Instagram background they try to treat hive blockchain in the same way, but after getting some experience and information there content becoming better and useful, thats why if you see any content which you think is a copy pasted or consider as plagiarism, please guide the user and check its profile history before reporting and taking any action, if you do not have time just pass it and don't upvote it but it's does not mean if there is a low standard content, then we should starts avoiding useful original content, we should give upvote to original content because if someone put there time and effort to create a good content he should be able to get incurgment and support from hive blockchain community along with rewards
Garbage.
People know it's wrong, but want to take shortcuts because they see what they think is free money here.
It's not.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Everyone is not same there are some bad actors I understand but nobody get punished hard because of a single mistake because if he a new user he may leave hive blockchain forever, my point is that we should check user posting history on hive blockchain before taking any action
You know some user downvote others content just because of some personal reasons, many users who get some success on hive they try there best nobody can achieve their level of success its totally selfish approach I think we should educate, support and encourage new users to use hive blockchain constantly and properly
True... I believe many think they can get away with it but I doubt they don't think that what they are doing is wrong
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Oh, I made my comment before I read yours but yea, I agree 100% lol
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
That's why I always promote my articles so it shows in the promoted category, but looks it's not enough sometimes.
Also, I know upvoting myself will rank my post higher but I try to avoid it because it doesn't add any value to the community but myself.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Lol I'm sorry man.
But to be fair, you copy/paste your content to Publish0x.
We've had this chat before.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I stopped doing that :)
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I agree with that, I think there is a lot of spam content that obviously does not receive any attention and that affects those who are starting, what they should do is to silence in leofinance those who only publish plagiarized content, and so you can notice more those who make quality content.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Everyone who posts wants readers to upvote their posts--who doesn't want that? However, posts need to be worth the upvote. Person A may like my post, but Persons B & C may hate my post; am I supposed to force B & C to give me an upvote?
Also, upvoting is an unpredictable thing. I've written posts which I thought would get lots of upvotes because similar posts got lots of upvotes, but for some reason or other that specific post got minimal upvotes or none. We can't predict these things, so the best we can do is write the best post we can as best as we can and leave it up to the readers. If it looks like we didn't make an effort to write our content, why should people take time to read it and give it an upvote?
When we write our posts, we have to give readers a reason to read them. Usually it's giving the readers something new, something they hadn't seen elsewhere. If readers know you for giving them something they like, you have to give them what they like. What's our "claim to fame" tha gives people a reason to read out posts and then upvote them? This is different for each of us, and each of us has to discover that answer.
Usually people who upvote an author know enough about the author to feel good about giving the upvote. It's not enough for people to learn about us based on the posts we write. We need to comment on other people's posts. Engagement goes both ways, and the comments we leave other people help them decide if they want to engage with us in the future.
Post size (or even comment size) is no guarantee of content being read (never mind upvoted). Some 8,000-word posts are crap, and some 80-word posts are useful to many people and get upvoted as a result. It goes back to giving readers what they want.
As long as we do these things, we will get upvotes:
No one is obligated to read our content. The people who read our content aren't obligated to upvote our content. People who read our content aren't obligated to comment or reply. All we can do is publish our posts; the rest is out of our hands.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Yea, I think that pretty much covers it :)
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I believe consistency and engagement are very important. Even if your content is good, if you don't show up and do the work every day, it's hard to stand out from the crowd.
Making yourself known is one of the first steps, in my opinion.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I've been comparing Medium articles with LeoFinance lately. I must say we have a lot to learn, most of the top posts I see here are about internal topics like Cubfinance, hive, etc.
Those posts are pretty good but it doesn't add value to people from outside but only from inside.
I'll focus the topic of my articles to catch outside attention even if users here don't see any value in it.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I see your point and there are ongoing initiatives on LeoFinance to change that
But I must add that I see a LOT of crap content on Medium too lol

People are going to vote the way they vote. It is their stake and their business. There is no such thing as fair as fairness is subjective.
Engagement and showing up with some type of consistency is the best bet.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Been a question on Hive since the start. I try not to vote on post with just a few words unless it is really important information.
As for the low rewards, how much are the authors engaging? Are they coming in here on a daily basis?
I know the regulars in here get a lot of upvotes from me, not only on their comments but also their posts.
Good chance I might not have gotten to know them if not for their time spent in here.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I am talking about @leofinance especially, I think we should reward original and useful content because when a content creator put a lot of time on creating a nice post and not get even few upvotes it's really discouraged him to work hard,you can understand what I am trying to say because you are a top writer on hive blockchain and LeoFinance
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
If I want to vote for something? I vote it. If I don't want to vote for something? I don't. Bottom line... my stake, my vote, my business.
I have been downvoted for upvoting others (not on leofinance.io thank goodness) or just because people do not care for me.
I complained about people auto-upvoting my content for years. But? I have learned the game and play the game with my sense of ethics.
What others do with their votes? None of my business.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I understand what you are saying but people need to understand this is a social network. They need to engage and it isnt as if put up an article and everyone should flock to vote it.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
@leopuma every one have its own stake, it's own vote and it's on business but sometimes we should think out of the box for improvement of overall Ecosystem here we are just discussing how we improve fare distribution of loe tokens rewards and how we improve upvoting system we are not targeting any other user, please don't mind ok
@taskmaster4450le I am following you on @leofinance and Twitter also I know how much effort and time you put to get engaged with other users I really appreciate this if everyone starts doing like you it's really help hive blockchain Ecosystem to grow I always share, upvote you content on hive and Twitter because I understand how much effort you are putting to do all of this
On the other hand some users content is effort less any one can write 100 words post about Leo token price or any other topic I don't against to upvote this type of effort less content but it should get what it deserves and other users like you get what they deserve to create a useful content and putting a lot of effort
Well I think there are a lot of people on auto-votes. There are specific people who actually go through the different posts but I do feel that engaging and making yourself known makes it more likely for people to read and vote your posts.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
There is a lot of logic in what you say, but I can tell you that those overvalued votes are justified. Since I have been able to notice and follow those publications with great votes, and they are from users who believed in the project from the beginning and helped it to grow, either with investment or publishing from the beginning.
There are also those who helped the development of all leofinance and cubdefi, or are also users with high voting power that actively support the entire community taskmaster4450 is a good example of that.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Start upvoting content that you like and what you feel is adding value. I try to support newbies from time to time who go unnoticed. We all try to do.
Also, one needs to showcase their work by engaging within the community. Some posts will always be overvalued and there's nothing much newbies can do about it. It's better to focus on your own work rather than looking at other's rewards. If you keep at it continuously people are going to notice you somehow. But it's better to take charge of that.

Asteroid mining holds some potential.
That is a lot of money. The only challenge is that it is about 100 million miles from Earth.
Is that a viable industry or are we just throwing money out the window?
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
All the resources on earth came from them so I'm sure there are plenty not all that far away rich with minerals we could use. Our tech isn't advanced enough yet or cost effective but when we get to that threshold it's going to take off in a very quick way.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Wow. Bad news guys.
Less than ten minutes ago, I posted a short test post to this account on LeoFinance and it doesn't show up on LeoFinance OR Hive.
I usually select the radio button "Auto Reblog" and did so now. I can see the reblog on Hiveblocks, but it isn't showing up on either site. This means I cannot blog AT ALL from this account.
I don't know if my main account evernoticethat is also affected. I did send Khal (I assume he runs LeoFinance?) a DM in the LF Tech Support channel a few days ago and will wait to see if he responds. Wow.
Flauwy tried to help, but none of his suggestions worked and Jon G Olson was nice but said he couldn't assist, they were the only ones that responded to me in Discord.
Since the latest update, I've had nothing but trouble.
I can reblog posts by others. but cannot publish my own.
They told me this is a known bug and I've seen that other people are also having problems with their posts not showing up. I just hope this doesn't chase me off Hive as I love creating content here.
So, if for some reason you don't see me stopping in LeoMarketTalk anymore, it's directly as a result of this. First my ability to post goes away, is my ability to comment going next? If I'm unable to post or comment in the future, I'll just say it's been a real pleasure to spend these few months with you all.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I haven't seen any issues with commenting and I haven't been making as many posts in LeoFinance so I would not know. I do know that @taskmaster4450le is making quite a few posts so maybe you can get any idea on how to schedule or put up posts without issues?
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I havent had any problems with posts.
Lost a couple comments here and there, maybe once every two days but nothing overwhelming.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
UPDATE: Just heard back from Khal in Discord and it turns out Melbourne's hunch was right. In my last published post: "A Note about Twitter" I wrote about how people were tiring their audiences out and getting the negative attention of Twitter with endless Hive promotional tweets and that I fold in my mentions and retweets of Hive posts naturally so as not to overwhelm Twitter.
In passing, I mentioned how I was tiring of seeing the constant red branding of the endless daily Actift (I don't even want to spell the whole word out) posts and tweets and how when I used to make my posts about it, I did it weekly instead of daily and used my own pics and titles so it didn't even look like the typical Actift post.
Since I mentioned Actift in the post, I used the Actift tag. Khal just told me that tag is filtered on LeoFinance because so many people spam those daily posts and it's considered "report card spam." I agree and had no idea until he told me. So Melbourne west's guess was right. I didn't know we had a banned tag on LeoFinance, but I can understand as even I was getting tired of the endless daily Actift posts. So whatever you do, don't use that tag.
If anyone knows of anymore tags that are banned please let me know. I don't recall seeing an announcement post about it.
Now, I told him my test post uploaded earlier, used no tags at all and doesn't show up. I sent him the Hiveblocks link showing the attempted LeoFinance reblog, so maybe I'll try and upload it again. Just hope my account wasn't flagged or anything.
It's just so good to finally know what's going on, and that maybe I can continue creating content on LeoFinance and Hive. :)
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Yeah there are some tags that are banned to keep the site clean. Actifit (you can spell it out in a comment) are very short posts.
I personally think all DBuzz posts should be banned from Leofinance also since it is a long form site.

There is no reason that this should be happening...
Have you gone to settings and switched through all of the different nodes, trying each?
Have you tried posting on a different account?

Good point. Always try different nodes with any issues. That is the first step.
Be sure to change in the app along with Keychain.

tt sucks man. I am not sure why this is happening but don't you worry because we have other front ends to publish. I hope they are working for you.

Question.
If CBDC comes into the play what would happen to XRP, USDT, USDC and other stable coins?
Do they serve any purpose?
A CBDC is not a cryptocurrency or a stablecoin.
Cryptocurrencies are digital tokens created outside of the traditional fiat system by a blockchain using cryptographic tools.
Stablecoins on the other hand, are simply pegged to fiat currencies, with an equal amount of fiat held in reserve.
A CBDC would not be pegged to a fiat currency in this way... it would literally be the fiat currency itself.
$1 of a US CBDC would be exactly the same as a paper note in your pocket.
Their purpose would be for governments/central banks to fully control the way money is issued and used by citizens while reducing costs and increasing transaction speeds.
Stablecoins would still have a place within the crypto ecosystem, serving the exact same purpose that they do now.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Does that mean the CBDC digitalization of the currency would watch the accounts of people?
The main attraction of CBDCs for the ruling class is its surveillance potential. When everyone is forced to use CBDCs, every transaction get logged somewhere (not blockchain, but that doesn't matter). This will allow transactions which would normally slip undetected to be detected and therefore taxed. Capturing elusive tax revenue is a major promise of CBDCs.
Then there is monitoring of transactions for so-called money laundering. While intended for criminal elements of society, CBDCs will allow the ruling class to redefine who is considered a criminal.
Airline miles are a limited form of money. Cryptocurrencies-- if they're allowed to exist in that environment-- could end up being used in the same way as airline miles.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
All transactions will be under the hands of the government without any barriers. They can program any money that is distributed.
For example, they could stimulate but code the payouts to expire if not used in say 60 days (then the money disappears). Or they could say the money cant be used on certain products.
CBDCs are a bad deal.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
For the most part, I think they would have no real purpose besides being able to not show up on the government's transaction logs.

Twitter recently updated their UI and of course, 50% of the population complains.
Interestingly, Jack chose to reply to this guy with 'Bitcoin fixes this':
Well, not really.
Hive however, provides a working decentralised framework for Web 3 social dApps like LeoFinance to plug into.
If you don't like 1 UI, simply change front-ends.
Your data/content/followers remain on the account level that YOU control.
(I try to be less spammy or sassy than the rest of Hive Twitter when I reply to tweets like this and encourage others to do the same).

One can learn open source technologies like Hive and develop their own UIs or get them developed from someone else. No need to start from scratch at least.

Music4Life got a new one, but it doesn't look as fast. I heard Proof of Brain is getting a new one too so let's see how that goes

I hope Proof of Brain gets a new front-end. Every time I upvote and post while using it I feel the Charlie Brown hairs on my head grow longer.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Haha oh I totally agree that the front-ends suck from a user experience point of view. leofinance.io is the best of a bad bunch... but it's not even close to a good experience if I'm being honest.
But the key is that the technology to plug and play different front-ends into a truly decentralised network, is present only on Hive. Now we just need some good front-end designers to come along and make the place sing!

Hive's decentralization is going to work to its advantage.
Keep loading up on HBD and get it into savings. That is going to be a coin that ends up serving a bit role in cryptocurrency.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
That's the plan!
Do you think the interest rate can go even higher to like 12 or even 15%?
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
It could if the witnesses want to increase it. At the same time, we need to make sure the HBD doesn't go past 10% of HIVE's marketcap.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
That can't happen I guess.. it's hardcoded, isn't it?
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
If it hits 10% of the marketcap of HIVE, it stops printing HBD.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Yea, I remember Dan talking about it on the show. We're covered on that basis then
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
It is a safeguard to not let the system be overwhelmed with debt. If the price of Hive skyrockets, that could allow for the creation of a lot of HBD.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Fortunately, the market cap of Hive is increasing with the price drifting higher.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I have a feeling it will. The witnesses are going to move it up at some point. My guess is we see 12% next.
No idea when that will happen though.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I think so too
Some of them have moved it to 12 already I believe so hopefully others will follow
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Need to get some 14% or 15% ones in there. I believe it is the medium average of the top 20 witnesses.

If they hit the open market, the boring activity of claiming will end up being worth a nice sum.
We will see what happens.

Collected 50 and sitting at 3940. Adding tomorrow's 60 I join the 4000 candy club. Yea!!!
Now how about something useful for those Candies CoinGecko????

Way to go Kevin!
Yea it would be great to have a use case for those candies! In the meantime we keep acumulating

Then onto 5,000.

As opposed to another article linked in here about asteroid mining, we see progress being made with deep sea mining.
For all you precious metal people, keep an eye on this industry. It could radically affect the supply of a lot of metals. There is a lot of minerals below the ocean floor.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
What types of metals do you think they are targeting? I keep hearing people talk about mining gold.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Definitely gold. Maybe silver.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I'd say gold and rare-earth elements, which are very valuable
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Gold get the attention but I think it is a lot of them.
Iron is probably very prevalent.

A few years ago on History Channel there was a series dedicated to this exact topic. It took place off the coast of Alaska. I don't know if the series is still running, but the seabed mining promised to be a game-changer.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Oh I'll look for that. DOn't think I have seen it, but it's something I'd probably enjoy
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Yeah that sounds like something that is up my alley too.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
That is interesting. You arent referring to the gold mining shows that infected those channels. There seems to be a ton of them.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
It's more like reality TV infected the History Channel. One series was titled Gold Rush, and it spun off the series which takes place in the Bering Sea.

Bering Sea Gold!
Haha, it's still a late night TV staple of mine when I can't sleep.

Why are so many companies still focusing upon Hybrid Vehicles? Could it be just to get the tax credits from the US government which includes plug ins too?
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Refueling/recharging.
A hybrid vehicle solves the problems associated with refueling/recharging.
With an electric vehicle, you're more likely to be stranded on the highway after the battery charge is near 0%. When that happens, the hybrid can switch into gas mode to finish the trip.
Until the refueling/recharginf problems are fixed, there will be room for hybrid vehicles.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
That is true although I am not sure there is much range anxiety anymore. Instead I think the fact people charge at home and can do it overnight reduces a lot of that.
You could be right although with the roll out of technology, by the time these hybrids hit the market, the problems you mentioned will be solved.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I'm seeing more Tesla vehicles every day, and then there are the electric vehicles made by companies such as Toyota and Chevolet.
I live in the city, and it beats me how people charge their electric cars. I've never seen an electric car getting charged, so I've never seen what they're conneced to as they chharge.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
A lot of charging stations spread out around towns and cities.
The first one I remember seeing was at a public library here in town. That had to be 5 or 6 years ago when it first appeared, maybe more.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I have no idea... it dosnt make a lot of sense to me but then again I'm not really into the automotive industry so I could be missing somthing
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I think so. When my brother got a hybrid, he got quite a few government rebates for doing so. The problem I see is that the mileage isn't exactly the greatest.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Yeah it isnt exactly a step forward in their quest to reduce dependence upon fossil fuel.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
The thing about all the stuff we are building is that it needs servicing. This holds true for satellites too. Here we see an opportunity.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
It's a very interesting opportunity indeed. And I'd think not many companies have the capability to provide that service so the ones that do could make it really worth their while
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I think its a nice way to look at things. If things like Starlink take off, we will see a lot more use in the satellite industry.

We have not perfected robotic vacuums yet. However, we are onto the next stage of robotic mechanisms.
Millions will be happy to not have to spend Saturday morning mowing the lawn.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I like the concept of cutting only small pieces of grass every day so you don't need to collect it and it acts like fertilizer
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I wasn't thinking about it like that but it definitely would be much easier. Its less work and it helps the ground where you live.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
It is an interesting concept. If something it automated who really cares how long it takes to get something done.
We will see how long it takes to get the sensor and mapping correct. A lot of variables needing improvement to make these type of devices (along with vacuums) work.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I don't mow the lawn very often either...I tend to just wait till it becomes way to overgrown and do it then. I do think it will definitely make lives much easier.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Life is easier because you do not have to do it. LOL
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
But that will create unemployment among teenagers who planed on earning their spending money or savings!
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
How many teenagers have you seen mowing the lawn?
They went the direction of the paperboy.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I live in a city, so that would be 0 teenagers.
Then again, teenagers may make just as much money shoveling snow during winter.
Eventually everything old gives way to the new. I just thought the lawnmower experience would stick around longer. At least grade-school age children have the lemonade stand experience (city permits permitting), but robots may as well replace them as well.

Crypto-Guides
Now we've finished all the content for our latest guide to Cardano, what's the next Crypto Guides feast on the menu?
A few suggestions that have been put forward over the last few weeks include:
Solana is winning for me right now because they have a Twitter emoji (lol, sound reasoning right?), but let's get a few comments with your suggestions before I publish one later today.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I can do "Solana (SOL) vs Ethereum (ETH)" if anyone has not yet picked it up. :)
Go for it :)
Just when you include the internal link to the guide template, please use the leofinance.io version.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
As I said the other day, Solana is timely right now due to the coming airdrop (not a damn emoji Dane - but you got a chuckle).
I think CUB is a great choice, but would suggest we hold off on that until all the new goodies are up and running.
Weren't you and I talking before about making the stablecoins a larger product covering all three types???
So based on this, my choice would be Solana. An educational experience for me,
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Solana guide it is!
I'm going to do is Solana decentralised today.
It was actually something that caught my eye ages ago and I wanted to do a blog on.
Now I have a reason to :)
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Tomorrow morning then I'll start on "Solana Pros and Cons", then I'll do "Should I invest in Solana in 2021?". Or maybe the other way around - who knows but I will cover those two.
I'm going to presume these two will appear as topics on the new template. Please advise if this is not the case.
Thanks boss. Almost bedtime here.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I think HEX and Pulsechain would be a good one to do in the next few weeks as Pulsechain is probably going to get a lot of press in the weeks ahead of its launch. I would even volunteer to contribute a few articles to that...
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Damn it, I just saw this as I published Solana.
HEX and Pulsechain will be added to our shortlist and I'll hold you to that ;)
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
If you published the template, it is not showing up on LMT.
If not, please remember to post it so our new contributor (@esmeesmith) can see it and hopefully participate. Maybe a little more begging could get us another contributor or two? Would be awfully nice!
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Never heard of those, so it would be great to have guides on them!
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I would go for Solana because I know very little about it and it would be nice to learn more lol

My DeFiPet is back online! A very nice gift in appreciation for our patience was received!
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
What type of gift did you get?
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
A hefty batch of silver, gems and in game coins (not DPET).
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Never got into that. Is it fun?
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
It's too new to be any fun yet. For now all I do is plant and harvest crops and collect silver. Need to get to level 10 to see if I can breed the damn things.
I understand though it is close to an actual game launch though, so we'll see.
