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.

With the upcoming Microblogging, Will we earn hive as well
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I could be wrong but this was my understanding. It should act more like comments on HIVE so you should be able to. You probably still need to have more than the dust limit of $0.02 otherwise it will just disappear.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
True , that's one of the things I hate about Hive . We gotto change that in coming HF including the linear curation.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Yea but I read in a recent post by someone (forgot who) that the dev team isn't focused on this issue at all right now. Also if your post doesn't reach a certain amount, you get penalized for voting (smaller weight compared to normal).
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I think so, but can't detail since Khal mentioned that the interaction of BLANKS with the blockchain would differ from the regular.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
So, does it mean that in addition to winning the ProjectBlank native token, we can also win HIVE? Very interesting!
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Everything built on Hive blockchain by default will be eligible for earning Hive .
Since #ProjectBlank is built on hive , when someone upvotes they are upvoting using their HP too . Hope I didn't confuse you.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Yes it appears it will be a proof of brain token just like anything else.
Of course, the bigger hive accounts might downvote those who are getting hive on their blanks.
But in theory, whatever the upvote value of an account, it will be given, whether it is blank, leo, hive, or any other HE token.
It is just like any other voted comment.

So I started adding a tag to some of my Actifit posts using this the #blogtoken because it fits the theme. A few days ago, the owner of the token issued 5 million tokens (double what was circulating) and starting selling/buying on HE. Below is a link to a post explaining it further. Any thoughts about this tribe and token?
The owner of the token has never communicated with anyone besides making one post introducing the token.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
That sounds like something to avoid. When the founder doesnt interact with anyone, isnt that a telling sign?
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Yea the founder hasn't interacted but the recent action of playing market maker after issuing so much of the token throws me off.
I only got my tokens through adding the tag so I haven't spent any HIVE to buy any off the market. But I do feel sad for those who did.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I think I also start adding the tag too and got some blog token as reward.
I thought it's a real community too....
There's something fishy about it I guess.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Does BLOG token have anything to do with DBLOG that we had on Steem-engine?
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
No it is a separate token. It is a random token created by someone (unknown). They have never spoken to anyone and everything they are doing is really sketchy right now.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Oh I thought holovision is the creator of it.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Holovison is the creator of a different token (MEME) so he knows more about underlying details so I believe what he is saying is probably true. He goes into more detail about how he can't seem to fully understand why the token creator is doing his actions if it's legit.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I'll have a closer look at it today.
Just a question about Actifit tags, you add it from the actifit APP right ? Usually I don't put any and actifit is added automatically if I'm not wrong, is it still the case if you start filling this field ?
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Yes you add it when submitting the post. You could also add it afterwards when you edit the posts but anyone who voted before the edit would not give you the tokens.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Actifit , sportstalk are default tags when you post through Actifit app . If you wish you can add more tags to it .
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Maybe this is the right place to ask this: how do I purchase LEO coins? Do I have to use Hive? Can I do it from metamask with ETH? What engine do I use? I'm kind of confused with all the different wallets and tokens on different apps. I can find a wallet on peakd, leo, hive, etc... Are they all the same? Or, if someone could point me to a post or FAQ that would answer those questions, I'd appreciate it! Thank you!
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
They are purchased through Hive-engine.

Got it! Thank you!!!
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
For the wallets I understand it could be confusing haha.
I usually find it easier to go to Leodex wallet, there you can see all the second layer tokens you have and stake/delegate/transfer it. All in one wallet.
Regarding buying LEO it will all depends on how much you want to invest.
If you are planning to be a whale and invest thousands of dollars then you might use Uniswap to buy your LEOs.
Assuming it's a huge amount of money you invest and ETH transaction fees are a drop in your investment.
Otherwise if you want to put a bit of money then go to Leodex (again) and buy it there with your Hive.
I suggest Leodex because the deposit/withdrawal fees are 0.25% instead of 1% on Hive-engine.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
How do I even get Hive in here? I have a little on an exchange that I bought years ago when it was Steem. I don't even see anywhere I can find an address to transfer it into. All of my Hive in here is in HP, which is where it was on Steemit. I'd rather leave that where it is but I'd like to get some regular Hive to use to get a little of the Leo and possibly others. Plus, I'm a little nervous about trying to swap into Leo on uniswap. I tried looking up the Leo address on etherscan and kept getting a different Leo....
Let's forget about Uniswap for the moment and start from the beginning, getting liquid HIVE.
It's way easier to buy HIVE as it's listed on some big exchange platforms.
For example I buy mine on Binance and I transfer it with very minimal fees to my Hive wallet.
From there I deposit it to Leodex and buy LEO.
Which exchange(s) are you using to buy your crypto usually ?
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Yes, I know where to buy it. Bittrex has it available. But, where do I find my address on Hive? I can't figure out where I find my address to transfer into Hive. Do I have to open an account with Blocktrades or something?
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
This totally threw me off the first time too ! I even deposited through blocktrades the first time.
You don’t have to do that, it’s much easier lol.
Your hive address is dagger212
Yes your hive name is your wallet address...
Give a try and send 1 hive and you’ll see :)
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Seriously?! It's that simple? Ha! I would have never figured that out in a million years.... lol
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I personally buy my Hive on Binance . It is easy to use .
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
If you choose to buy LEO, you can do it at LeoDex, there is still no option to join LeoDex through MetaMask, but if you have the Hive Keychain you can go easy.
By LeoDex the rates are the cheapest on the Hive blockchain, only 0.25% to deposit HIVE or withdraw.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
wow, this is pretty cool. I'm used to Hive engine and never given leodex a try. I'll gladly do this time. Thank you @coyotelation.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
LeoDex is what I have been using after I also found out about it, am sure you'll love it 🦁👌
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
wow, that's awesome to see. Thank you @marvinix
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
You're always welcome
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
It will be an incredible experience for you. I'm sure you will like it :)
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
bought some leo 2 days ago
For me, LeoDex seems easier but if you have ETH, then you have to do it via the Uniswap exchange.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
You can go into the Liquidity pool on Ethereum and purchase wLEO there which then can be pulled into your Leo wallet by swapping it to Leo.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I hope to host the first comment one of this days. Maybe I'll have to stay awake to get that done.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Yes you have to be awake to do that and always refresh your feed every mins as there are also some lion lurking somewhere too....🦁

I had the first comment. I can tell you it is far from an orgasmic experience.

Does anyone remember negative oil prices last year? You can't make this stuff up, who would have guessed this would happen? Times are getting more and more unpredictable!
Bloomberg
Brent Oil Near $65 With U.S. Crisis Now a Global Supply Shock!
https://finance.yahoo.com/news/oil-extends-gain-u-crisis-235147230.html
I wonder how long this will be a problem, once Texas thaws out will everything go back to normal or will something else pop up?
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Knew this was coming. I wasnt real liquid at the time but I was going to buy some USO. It is not the best way to play it but I do not engage the futures markets where the real play was.
It was common sense that, at some point, the supply glut would reverse. OPEC and Russia werent about to decimate their economies to maintain low oil prices especially after Russia crushed the Saudis.
The mainstream idea that oil is dead and that peak oil (demand) was reached is false. There will be a lot of oil consumed over the next decade.
Oil will end up kicking off a commodity boom that will last into 2024. It is a little early so I would expect a pullback in it before the true run up starts.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
That sounds like a great strategy for this oil play. I have to agree with you that the oil-producing countries weren't going to let it stay low forever. I don't even think electric cars are going to put a dent in it for a long time either
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Considering the average age on the car on the road in the US is over 10 years old, that means there are a lot of cars being sold today that are not going away for a long time.
And 99% of them use gas/diesel.
Hell they are writing 7 year loans on them.
So the dent is going to be very slow.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
That's a plus for me considering I work on the fuel systems for cars and boats! I'm glad I'm at the end of my career, a few more years and I'm out!

I want to thank all friends for participating in the Coyote League! The challenge is now closed.
Altogether there are 16 entries and we will probably have a new leader in the scores since @cmmemes did not participate this week.
I'm very excited to see what the contest will look like in the end. Good luck to everyone!
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Ah ! The meme artist is too busy and will let his top spot to someone else (hopefully me) :)
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I'm glad to be in this contest ... Thank you for running a contest that encourages more users.

Damn , I am sorry I missed it . I wanted to participate in it as soon as you mentioned about it couple of days ago but caught up with something else.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
No problem, you can participate in the next editions as it will be every week. It will be great to see you in the league.

@nathanmars is thinking about having him executed.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
nominated who for king? Also as king you inherit or grab power, you rarely get nominated :P
You see where you're bringing me with your stuff ?
And you'll be the first one to meme my head rolling on the floor...
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
neah... there will be statues and posters with you Dear Leader style :D only enemies of the regime will be allowed to appear in memes :P
That's a nice one brother. Engagement is really crucial in the hive world.
I have also seen alot of changes in my account ever since I joined the engagement party. Can't wait to hit the 100+followers soon.
Am sure you'll hit the mark faster than me😁
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Be consistent , interact with lot of people and just make sense lol , that will do wonders .
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Yes it's a recipe that works wonders. It worked in many ways for me.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
It means you're giving value and many want to read your blog more often.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I really need to start writing more articles then haha
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Or more comments.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
It reminds me a book from Tom Rath, "Strenghts finder".
Instead of encouraging people to develop skills they don't have, it was all about focusing on skills you are already good at and master it.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Commenting is a skill I think most anyone can master.
Writing long posts, not so much.
This is why the microblogging app is going to be a huge success...most anyone can use it.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Which is why it's going to attract alot of users.
The simplicity will bring the numbers to the blockchain.
