The store isn't loading for me and maybe that's a good thing, prolly getting a lot of traffic.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Lol. I don't know but it was working for me earlier in the day but I didn't exactly see anything I wanted.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Seems to be working now. Cool concept but not a lot of products listed yet

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Cool concept but not a lot of products listed yet

I checked it out the week it was released , so right now they have more products than they did earlier .

It is growing according to me but would love to see more stats about it . Like did people buy any products? If yes , then how much ? etc

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Makes sense that they are growing slowly for now.

And yes, it would be very interesting to get that kind of data!

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Lol no , it is not a good thing :p

It is loading now , check it out . https://hivelist.store/

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

From what I saw looks a bit to high priced for me. 49.00 for a pair of leggings is to much for me. Just saying.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yea its probably a little bit expensive. I don't know whether or not its a good idea but the people who are selling the items are the ones setting the prices.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I saw that. It is expanding which is good. There is a lot of development taking place. Fun times on the blockchain. I hope that one really takes off; it has great potential.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I hope so too. And I hope they continue to develop it and add the other listing for services too. I think that has a lot of potential too

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Do you think it will gain traction now that it has BSC? I hope it brings in people to HIVE but I don't know since people might not care.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

It is certainly a step in the right direction and opening up the door to more people and opportunities. It is going to come down to the marketing they do as well as what is available on there.

We really need to get some marketplaces taking off. It is a use case that is badly needed in crypto.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

This is good news for Hive :) We needed something like this to be honest .

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yes but I keep seeing more HIVE apps adding in other block chains but not other block chains adding in HIVE tokens. I think this needs to change.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

They arent going to implement Hive tokens. We are too small and really havent created a dependable protocol. Hive Engine really doesnt cut it.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

So do you think we will require something like HSC before we can see HE tokens being used for transactions off chain?

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Hive tokens lack liquidity . If you saw certain products , they are like 50$ . If they sell 3 of them and have 150$ worth say POB , they can't sell them at all for Hive or other tokens at the same price .

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yea that is definitely a huge issue. I wonder if it is a supply issue or because we don't really have people willing to market make.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I had not thought about that, but it's a very valid point

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

True! We can use all the development we can get! I hope more stuff keeps coming out!

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Awesome. I personally love this project. They are doing so much that go unnoticed usually.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yea but I think I have to agree with amr that HE tokens just lack the liquidity.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

We might need millions of users owning different coins to have sufficient liquidity.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

And UTOPIS at it again - 89.93% APR = almost 90% .
image.png

@chronocrypto is crushing it .

I have to buy more of this . I just added 7 to hit 100 UTOPIS .

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

UTOPIS are sexy lol
I got 40 at the moment, my goal is to get 100 for now.
My HIVE doesn't stretch enough for all these cool income tokens lol

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I just bought some more Utopis, slow but sure.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Daman, nice! One of the hottest projects on Hive right now

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Nice. I got about 10 right now and I placed some buy orders for INDEX, MEOWLEO and SOL. I think I got a few HIVE leftover from my payout and I am debating about placing an order for UTOPIS.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I want to buy some SOL too .

Haven't checked out MEOWLEO , any article you can link me to ?

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

It follows a similar structure of returning LEO for delegations or holding the token.

https://leofinance.io/@deathwing/auto-compounding-leo-rewards-or-announcing-meowcurator

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Great I will see if it is worth to buy it. I don't think I will delegate to it so I don't think it matters if I buy or not.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I don't know because there are no author rewards and there is like a 10% tax. But I feel the project is good for the community and bought 10 so I can get dividends. I don't know about the demand for it though.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Which will be a high APR...Utopis or POB? I keep sending you more POB.

Glad I have both of them also.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

For atleast 1 month from now I can guarantee the POB APR to be above 150% . So POB is a good bet right now than UTOPIS .

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Awesome!

I think I forgot to delegate my latest earning so I'll do it now

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Hehe yeah if you aren't curating make sure you don't even miss a day because everyday makes a difference of 10-20 POB for the curation account since it is still in early stages.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Done! Keep up the great work!

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Hehe trying my best :)

Although the APR came down to around 300% , we are still doing great compared to other delegation accounts .

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

It only makes sense that it will keep dropping. Most things do (except EDS which keeps increasing in APR).

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Here is the new tribe that @rob23 was writing about. At least hit is a bit of a preview...a teaser if you will.

https://leofinance.io/@rob23/krwoczbu

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

This is good to see :)

As we have stated multiple times - sports tribes has a great potential . Sportstalk is failing to deliver so maybe a new good tribe will take its place although it is focusing on a particular sport .

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yeah I told him to go more specific, like his favorite team. He didnt want to do that.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Working on a solution to that now. Thinking of possibly using a similar concept to Hive badges from Hivebuzz to promote individual team competition

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

That's very interesting .

The fans are always crazy about their teams so these kinds of badges and stuff really excites people .

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Exactly, and if done correctly it could foster the fanatical nature of an individual team based site while also allowing for a wider range of content!

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Team fans are rabid. It is something that can be leveraged to great success. Hoop fans are also plentiful.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

That could be a good idea. Or perhaps break up the UI so that it is categorized.

By the way, Knicks broke a long streak...in the playoffs.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yes exactly my thoughts with the UI, Will be able to do a bit more of that once I see what everything looks like after it comes from the Hive Engine in just a few weeks

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Knicks could see the second round this year, big things happening in New York!

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Ohh that would be nice... I would even pick a team to root for

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Hopefully you will pick the 76ers they are clearly the best team

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Sure, they are not from Boston so no problems there!

Nothing against Boston itself, but hockey is my favorite sport and I'm a Montreal Canadiens fan :P

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I haven't watched the video yet since I am behind a bit. It always end up being on my backlogs.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

It's a short one, just a 25 second clip!

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I just took a time to look at it. I like basketball and I tend to watch the Lakers/Clippers most of the time. I use to love all the Kobe Bryant stuff lol.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

It is more like a promo video .

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yea I just saw. I just avoided it because I saw the play video sign and I tend to watch them in bulk when I got time.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Nice! I wish he'd pick a different sport as I'm not a huge basketball fan but still, very interesting proposal! I hope it takes off

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

What sport would you prefer?

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

My favorite sports are Hockey and American Football! Hopefully he'll spin-off to those one day or inspire others hehe

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Cool a basketball tribe. March madness is over, but I think this tribe will go over well.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

https://leofinance.io/@shawnlauzon/you-spoke-we-answered

Check this out guys . About the recent UI updates .

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Great stuff! Good to know that the team is paying attention to user feedback. That is one of the reasons why I like this community so much!

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Me too! They are promptly resolving the issues which is quite cool.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yes it is always great when developers and teams are listening to the user base. We need more of that throughout crypto.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

That's true... that's why I believe Hive, and mainly LeoFinance, is ahead of many others.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I see that many issues on mobile are resolved. Hopefully it will get me back on track with the commenting ;)

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

A great piece. Glad you shared it. Hit it up with a nice upvote. Hopefully it gets to the trending page.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yea the new UI updates are getting fixed somewhat. Now I wonder when the notifications will be fixed.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Here is another @leomarkettalk daily post.

Yesterday we did two rooms. It put us over the 565 minimum level that we seek to keep on pace for 17,500 comments for the month. So we were able to cushion a bit after being down for 4 or 5 days.

We gave a lot back over the weekend so lets try to make up for it this week.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Hi everyone! Remember me? lol
I know I've been slacking, been working on the background with some "outside" writing lol
Hope to get back on track to help push the numbers :)

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Don't worry I went slacking on the CTP side. I got side tracked by Cub Finance since I got my refund yesterday.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

You received 3 demerits for your inappropriate behavior.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yep. Not being involved with @leomarkettalk has dire consequences.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Welcome back! Good to have you, we are really short-handed these days so every bit helps!

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Thanks! Having the chat on my home tribe sometimes it's difficult to give proper attention to both 😋

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Type faster.

By the way, drop the Ctp chat link in here each day. It is good for those in there to support that one.

Like with the CANDIES have to put it in front of people's face each day.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Since you are giving permission, I shall share it!
Thank you! Have to wait for my time-out in the shame box is over!

Yea, I'd like that! I keep telling myself to check out that chat but I always forget... with the link here it's going to be easier

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

What is the current cushion?

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I havent figured it out. I look at things on a day by day basis. I just look at it as a +/- situation. We are up, probably by about 500..so maybe one day ahead after giving back so much.

We just need a few 750 days to really set us back on track.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

We are actually ahead right now . We have 694 average so as long as we keep on hitting the 560 + we should be good to hit 20k .

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Shhh dont tell them that. They will slack off like they did this weekend. LOL

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Lol. I still plan to show up and play my part. Who knows about all the people missing.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yes we are two who keep doing our part. Wish more would feel the same way but it might take time. With the delay in ProjectBlank, it seems like we have that time.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Ah well not too bad then! But we used to do a lot better than that. I hope we can get back to that level of activity!

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

It is going to take all of us plus a number more. We cannot get there with just 15 or 20 people.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

We hit 11111 yesterday ( 16th May report ) which means we are averaging 694 right now . We are good .

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

So that means we got about 1.3k-1.4k or so comments buffer.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

We have 1.1K buffer .

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Which we need to keep adding to like those old-fashioned rollover minutes from Cingular.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

That's not bad at all. I'm very confident we'll hit our target for the month

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Good is the enemy of great.

We do not just need to be good; we need to be revolutionary.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Hey Everyone! Happy Tuesday Afternoon or Evening or Night as the case may be. I am just getting around with all my commenting and curating. Answered a bunch of comments on Engage this morning too. We can be busy with all this stuff an entire day. There is so much to see here. Never boring!

So true! It can be a full-time job and some more lol

I wish I had even more time on my days to be here

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

That would be great, @tfranzini to just spend hours at a time interacting with everyone's content and creating more of our own. Have a great weekend.😀

What happens to the unharvested CUB tokens when adding stake to the dens ?

I've just added a few cubs I've earned from other farms to the CUB Den and was either expecting the unharvested CUB tokens to remain or be auto compounded but looks like it just disappeared

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

ahh.. I've just noticed it was automatically returned to my Cub Wallet. Would've been perfect if it was automatically compounded, but as long as it is not lost I am over the moon

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I believe auto compound will be coming on a future update

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yup right now there is no auto-compounding feature . So all of it stays in your wallet which you have to compound yourself.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Hard to lose tokens when it is all on the blockchain (BSC). They will never disappear, just be moved around. As long as you dont send them somewhere like swapping in a pool, then they are there for you.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yea when you add to the Den or Farm, you automatically farm the CUB. I found that out yesterday.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Running a contest to recognize solid new authors, feel free to drop in your recommendations! https://leofinance.io/@rob23/125-leo-delegation-contest-highlight-a-new-author

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Its a bit tough since I don't remember anyone off the top of my head. But its a great initiative.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Let me know if you think of anyone or see some this week!

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

That is a really nice thing to do.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Thank you! Let me know if you have any recommendations!

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

nice one mate. I will drop some of my recommendations.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Looking forward to it!

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Once again , woke up early to leave some comments :)

How is it going guys ?

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

All very well colleague, and how are you?

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I ahve a feeling that this week is going to be a good one and am really looking forward to it. Something about that kid being found in Wyoming, started the wek off with a beam of positivity. Let's keep it going!

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Nothing better than starting the week as well as day with a positive vibe :)

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I am good too @theanalystjohn . Haven't talked to you for a while :) Hope everything is going well on your side.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Everything is fine here my friend. I've been a little busy with the physical world and that's why I've been absent.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Good to see you again, dude!

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Nice to see you too, colleague. I've been a little busy with the physical world and so I've been less time here.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I feel you man. The same thing happened to me a couple lats t couple of weeks. Welcome back!

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I always say, 200 by midnight is a good sign.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

It is the minimum starting point. If we dont get to that, hard to catch up during the next day. Hopefully some will step in with the overnight traffic.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I'm usually up at least part of the night, so there's that. We still have almost 2 hours left, so there's still time.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Well its a bit over midnight for me now but I think we will be over 200 by the time I am done here.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I am not really sure what is the time for me when it is midnight for you :p

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

It is going okay. Always good to have you here. We were able to get the minimum level at least yesterday.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

We were able to get the minimum level at least yesterday.

We shall crush it today . I will come back in the noon again for 1-2 hours so will try to respond as much as I can :)

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

We will try to have some stuff here for you.

Looking forward to a big day. I have the Cryptomaniac webcast today so will be tied up in the afternoon.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Its good but it doesn't look like people have really come back to engage. We are still down on numbers.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

We improved yesterday but nothing to really get elated over. Might hit 600 with the fill in. Need to get back to the 800-900 level.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yeah the number of users have really dropped , I wonder why .

Haven't seen tfranzini , did he tell he will miss some days ?

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yeah, I was away for the weekend, as usual, but also I'm taking over a new project and perhaps another one in a few days so I'm pretty busy.

Good thing I'm a hell of a project manager so I'll try to get things sorted out soon so I can have more time again :P

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Delegate that work to other people so you can comment more. LOL

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

That's actually what I'm going to do LOL

Just gotta make sure they can actually do it without constant supervision and then I'm golden :P

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I think he went back to work and he did say he got assigned another project.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Oh okay busy at work huh , working sucks lol .

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yea lol
I hope I can quit one day and go full-time Hive!

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Good morning! I'm doing well! I think it's going to be yet another crazy week for me, but I'll try to make the most of it!

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Things are okay with me. Hope you and yours are well.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

https://www.analyticsinsight.net/india-among-countries-most-interested-in-ether/

India ranks 8th in terms of interest in Ether . To be honest I didn't expect this.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Wow, and Brazil ranks 4th! I didn't expect this at all! I know it's been rising here but I thought we'd be much lower on that rank

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Right lol . Brazilians are taking over the crypto world :p

Well it is good to see this in the countries where people are struggling economically .

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I think crypto was made to put everyone on a similar level irrespective of their nationality, race, religion etc.

Solving the 'money' problem for everyone involved.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Hehehe true, the crypto community of brazil is growing a lot

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

As I expected the US is first.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Lol, we have such a huge population, we will always dominate the demographics everywhere. 😂

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Great to see Turkey at #3.

Banning crypto doesn't do shit I guess!

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

A good little bit of INR is going into that SAFEMOON coin too I see.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yesterday I actually missed this particular data in the post -

@taskmaster4450le , this is what you asked .

image.png

15M hp in those accounts which earned LEO but haven't voted LEO as witness but actually what is interesting is . There are people ( around 700 ) who have voted for LEO as witness but didn't earn even 0.001 LEO in the 30 days .

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Maybe its better to check from posts/comments. I don't know if curation rewards matter to those that just staked a few LEO they got normally. I don't think the criteria is tight enough.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

It will be interesting to see the names and how big the accounts are. I will hit you up on DM and we need to review this. We can put together a nice post about it.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

What happened that I missed it? I have not voted for LEO as a witness and I wish I had.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

This link will take you straight to it. Just look for the button "Approve witness" on the top right

https://leofinance.io/@leofinance/

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

You can vote now. Go to Hive, click on Witnesses at the top, scroll down to #24 LeoFinance and hit the little up arrow. Done.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I will go immediately to vote colleague. Thank you very much!

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

There are multiple ways to vote for a witness. I generally just use PeakD and go to witnesses. Then I vote for the LeoFinance witness.

Alternatively you can go to keychain, click witnesses, top 100 and scroll down to upvote Leofinance.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Thanks very much my friend. I just voted via Hive.blog

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

The fake news have been on a rise in recent times . How do you think can we prevent it ?

  1. We can create more awareness among people not to believe everything they see but this means they won't believe the real news too .
  2. There are many AI out there which actually scrapes the net to see if news is fake or not .
  3. Many organization are doing a good job in "fact-checking" .

But what can we do more to curb it ? Will things like deep-fake becoming harder and harder for us to detect , we will see more and more misinformation being spread .

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Watch both sides and figure out what to believe. I see if they are willing to recognize their own short-falls and who has actual data to back it up.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I think part of the solution is to have a diverse news/research set. When I lived in Europe, I was surprised at how the same story in the US had a different slant in the EU. "Anti-war protesters" in NY, became "Peace Activists" in Berlin. "Officer Involved Shooting" in Chicago, became "Police Shooting" in London. "Improvised Explosive Device" in DC, became "Homemeade Bomb" in Rome.

Framing works.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

We have some good organizations here in brazil doing that so I always try to point people to them when I see signs of fake news.

Also, if it's something about a subject that I understand I try to break it down and use facts and data to debunk it.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I keep hearing about something called "Canal" down there, seems to be some sort of network.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Hmm not sure what it could be... it means "Channel" in Portuguese so it sounds like a network indeed but I don't really know which one

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I think I agree with jfang and this would be choosing option 1. I think with a more educated society, each person would be able to detect which is true or false news.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I learned a lot when I worked as an overnight janitor for the summer at a newspaper.

The old-timers would show me how they would spin a story to acheive a desired outcome. Little things such as choosing an unflattering picture of someone they didn't like in order to subtly turn the reader against the person.

I still recall the pic they published of a politician with his eye squeezed shut as he was yawning. They had plenty of good pics available, but delibratlty chose that one to undercut his message.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yea, that's why I don't read the news anymore... their goal is selling ads and not information

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

The media have always been deceitful. They manage to manipulate at will, it is barbaric.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

People believe what they choose to believe even when presented evidence to prove their beliefs wrong.

Try to convince a flat-earther that the earth is round. Convince an antivaccer that vaccines are necessary for public health and the spread of highly infectious diseases. Convince me that caviar (fish eggs) are delicious.

EDS update and the APR is looking good as its only going up every week.

https://leofinance.io/@eddie-earner/quick-updated-on-eds-token-apy-and-miner-token-update

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yeah that is a fantastic project. A nice income token that will pay for itself over time. I am glad I got into it early. It isnt a ton of money but it all adds up as they say.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I have a miner so its generating me over time. It does add up every week but I keep comparing the payments between EDS and UTOPIS even though I shouldn't.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

UTOPIS is on fire now. I have UTOPIS too so I have both basis covered.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

How long has Utopis been going?

About 4 months, maybe? Dont exactly recall when it went live. Maybe it was only a couple months ago.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Oh ok, I know Jon, BitcoinFlood have mentioned it and I only have 10 tokens, but it's good to know that it's still newish.

Utopis is crazy good! One of the best projects that I'm invested in at the moment.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Alot of good ones out there. Take then while you can get them. Outsized returns everywhere. That is a great thing.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I bet UTOPIS prize will double once all the coins on the market right now at 3.5 Hive is sold off .

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I think it will have to. I didnt look, how many left on the sell wall?

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yea, I think so too! Might even add a few more if possible...

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I have both and my UTOPIS stack is worth more the EDS. I am just waiting for my EDS to stack more while my UTOPIS just sits around earning me more HIVE.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Awesome , I actually wanted to post about how well it is doing . GOod that they got it covered . I might still go ahead and do it if I feel I can provide more info .

What do you feel ?

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

If you can add to it, then it is worth posting about. They did a good job in covering it.

But there is always more.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I feel like shilling some dividend tokens later but I haven't really built a good position in them. So it sounded counter productive.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yeah be like Mark Cuban, coy with what you are investing in.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Got it :)

But there is always more.

This is so true lol .

Yesterday for that LEO witness post , I still had more data actually . I just left out many data because the post was way too long .

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

You could always make a part 2 the following week. Just have the 1st post as a reference later.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yeah that's actually true :) Will do it if I can find some interesting insights :)

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yeah it was rather large.

I might suggest, for the next part of the post, add in who gets the most payouts in LEO and see if they are voted for the Witness. I wonder how many of the top 50 earners are voting for Leofinance as a witness.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I wonder if it just skips people's minds. Have to admit, I didn't even think of it until I saw it mentioned here. Maybe a post would remind some people to vote.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I dont think many people pay attention to governance onHive as a rule. There is no way to deny that fact. We do need more posts and stats to back the up. It is time to try and get Leofinance as a top 20 witness.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I feel it is great. The APR should just keep going up since all the HIVE they get is being powered up.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

That is the goal. Keep the basis growing which will keep feeding into the APR.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

True , EDS is the LBI of Hive .

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

When you use the system as it was created for, with the inflation rate, we will see great returns.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

You always bring some nice insight with your posts so if you have new info or a different approach I say go for it!

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Have I mentioned I love me some dripcoins?!? lol EDS, LBI, UTOPIS, CL now, LEN, BRO, LIST, COM, DHEDGE....these are all paying me while I sleep. Some more than others but...all "free". And hopefully at some point they all go up in value as well so not only do we get paid dividends, we actually make some money on the base token as well.

If you are planning on being here for the long haul like I am, then these are all things you should accumulate pieces of. At least in my opinion.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yea I decided to buy some every month but my primary focus right now is still staking, curating and making content. I decided to move some funds over to CUB for being passive as well.

I had not looked into EDS. Sounds very interesting. Will try to remember to have a look see at what they are all about.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

EDS payout update .

Pretty damn good actually . 18% at current price and 22% if you bought it at 1 HIVE .

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I think there was some time when EDS was below 1 HIVE but I don't think it will be here again since there are just too many orders in that range.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Oh really ? Damn some lucky buys then . I have added 1 HIVE because that was the inital price it was sold at and most users bought it at 1 HIVE including me .

What about you ?

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I got most of mine from the Saturday's Saver and the EDSM. The data is from your tool. I turned it into a little bit of profit since I randomly placed an order before EDSM came out.

You have bought 2.0 EDS totally - Average buy price : 0.53

You have sold 2.0 EDS totally - Average sell price : 1.0

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yes and it will keep rising. It is amazing how we can laugh at 18% or 22% return when banks are paying less than 1%.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Guess I need to sell a kidney to get more HIVE for those EDS 🤣

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Do not sell your kidney! That would be terrible. I am sure it is an attractive coin, but a kidney?

Amazon planning to enter the medical space for test kits. It should be for covid and STDs.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

There is no field that a tech company like Amazon cant enter. That is what makes them so dangerous and capable of obliterating a lot of competition.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yes, it's ridiculous to see one enterprise having that kind of power.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I dont think there is an area that Amazon is not looking at going into. That is the key to technology companies. They can go into any industry they want.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yea and with that user base they have it's not going to be hard for them to do so

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

That's why they call themselves Amazon. Full of almost every damn thing. :D

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Hehehe true.. I remember it was quite amazing to find out that their logo means from A to Z

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Seriously. Their name and the log, both of them represent what they are doing.

Would you change the HIVE shutdown mode from 13 weeks to a reduction?

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Definitely. Will go for maybe 1 week.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

No 13 weeks is fine. There are ways around it, one of them being Hive.loans.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

How would the Hive loans be? Is there an article that explains them a bit?

Check out the posts by @klye.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I think I would but I think I might just think 5-10 weeks is better. I think locking it up for that type of period is better.

Maybe somewhere in between. I wouldn't go for 1 week though

"What's your role in the grand scheme of things--crypto wise?"

This has been on my mind for a while now. When I do gather some Leo I will host a contest on this topic, so I can get people talking about this in detail.

I think we all have a part to play in the growth of the crypto industry and identifying that helps quiet all the noise.

Have a great day guys. Not feeling so great today but I will contribute my quota here. Cheers

Interesting.... let's see that contest, should be fun :)

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I can donate some LEO , not huge amount but as much as I can ,let me know.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

that would be nice. I will solidify my idea by tomorrow. been busy with work today.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Actually cryptocurrency is not the grand scheme, just a piece. Many think that is the end when it is just the beginning. We are looking upon a total decentralization of things to the point where centralized entities are not going to remain for long. It will take a few decades but many are going to fall by the wayside before our eyes.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

maybe i did not articulate my thought properly. i see crypto as the window into the decentralization of everything which is important in the future we are trying to create. and asides making money, I think people should identify where they fit and can contribute to the growth of the industry and ideology of a decentralized world

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yea, good point. Crypto is one of the many tools that will help us to build this new reality

It sounds like a good contest but I tend to think I will pretty much be a small fish lol.

https://artificialintelligence-news.com/2021/05/11/ibm-project-codenet-wants-teach-ai-how-code/

IBM's project codenet , man this can mean trouble for existing programmers as the AI will potentially generate codes .

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I caught the headline but didnt have a chance to read the article. What does it do? Basically this is AI that will code in many different languages?

So it will be self coding AI?

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

It works similar to this -

"Give me the code for retrieving all rows and columns from table school "

It will respond

"select * from school"

This is an sql example .

GPT3 is already doing this very well since it has scraped the stackoverflow data a lot lol . But GPT3 wasn't aimed to do this actually . So a project fully dedicated for this alone ? It will be a nightmare for existing programmers for sure .

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

A nightmare how? In that it is a threat to their profession or because it will be a nightmare to work with?

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Threat to the profession in the most case. People tend to get hired because people don't want to learn the underlying language and pay someone else to do it.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

threat to their profession

This . There are lot of people whose job depend fully on SQL and this can easily eliminate them .

I am not talking about those who are in 25-30 years age group because they have to read python , R and SQL for say data analyst jobs but there are people who graduated in 2005-10 who are masters of SQL alone .
They will have a tough time if this project actually does what it is supposed to do .

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Ah ok. It is understood. Well just another example of where automation and AI is a threat to jobs.

How come this does not surprise me?

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Very interesting. I read something along those lines long ago but I didn't really know how advanced it was.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

It does but I don't think it will be ready anytime soon right? I feel like it can generate the base for a project and then a human still has to clean it up.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Maybe it can take a year or two maximum is what I feel . They have all the resources they need to train all the models which is a huge advantage in AI world .

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Oh wow that's fast! It will be interesting to see what comes out of it

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

AI and robotic automation are going to change things a great deal in the world for many people.

Musk is not having a fun time in Germany. Seems the German government is further looking to crush their economy. Angela Merkle is a disaster. Germany's GDP in 2019 was the below where it was in 2014 with it contracting 5% in 2020.

You would think with a track record like that, her government would want to be accommodating to those who are trying to build in that country.

I know there will probably be issues with Germany but I don't think casting doubt on his supply lines are a good idea.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I know there will probably be issues with Germany but I don't think casting doubt on his supply lines are a good idea.

Especially when you are 6 months late with the target date. Not going to give investors a ton of confidence.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I think the investors are lacking confidence because he is busy arguing over DOGE and BTC instead of getting results. Is he trying to run the company hands off now? Even the perma Tesla bulls are starting to ask what is going on with the company.

Remember a few months back when Elon tweeted that if results didn't happen, Tesla price will tank? I don't know why he is forgetting about it now.

Damn, that not bodes well for his plans... I hope he can get around all of this

I wonder how many go and buy Hive on the stock exchange instead of the Hive on the blockchain. Well probably no one but the confusion can be there. LOL

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I don't know but it is possible. I think I also saw a LEO token that is different from the LEO token we know.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yeah that is why we had to start with the wLEO and bLEO on twitter instead of LEO.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Its the reason why it took me so long to figure out how people calculated the price of LEO. I think in the end, I concluded the normal LEO price is the HE price, wLEO is the ETh price and bLEO is the BSC price.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

It is easy to fall victim to that. We will see what happens in the future as more duplicate things show up. It is easy to confuse things.

Cheers to my bros of @leomarkettalk, especially @tfranzini, our cocktail boi.

It's a fun day today because I got to purchase beer after a long time. My city is under lockdown so no liquor shops are allowed to open. Had to move out of the city for two days so 'lucky me' 😁

Btw, I got this beer mug at the starting of 2020. Check what's written on it. Back then, I didn't even imagine how Covid would screw everything for most of us. 🙄

Anyone's looking for the recipe:

  1. Get a beer.
  2. Get a mug.
  3. Put some ice in the mug. (Yes, I use rocks with my beer, don't judge me, pls 😭)
  4. Open the beer.
  5. Tilt the mug at 30 degrees or whatever & pour. Make sure that you get that handsome foam collar on the top.

Enjoy your drink!

Does a long post consume more Resource Credits than a shorter one? 🤔 Does the same apply to comments too? 🤔🤔

As always, thanks in advance for your answers! 😁

I think a longer post and comment consumes more Resource credits. But I am not sure how much it affects the amount it takes. However I believe 1 long comment will take less than 2 mid-sized or short comments.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Thanks for your reply! 😀

That's what I already assumed before I asked the question, but I just wanted to be sure. 😁

If you look at your account on hiveblocks at the Resource Credits section, it tells you what each action costs:

comment 1.1M
vote 0.07M
transfer 0.18M

Yours is here:
https://hiveblocks.com/@savvyplayer

Your voting power is at 83.61%
Your downvote power is at 6.40%
your resource credits are at 41.08%

These numbers will rise as you pause throughout the day.

Think of it as Mana in a videogame. Everything you do on Hive has a cost in resource credits and you're not giving yours a chance to recover.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I know exactly what Resource Credits are, but my question is whether a long post/comment will consume more Resource Credits than a shorter one. 😅

Thanks for your answer, but I visit HiveBlocks often, like more than 10 times per day, to see specifically how much Voting Mana, Downvoting Mana, and Resource Credits I still have. 😅 I know that the Voting (and Downvoting) Mana and Resource Credits regenerate at exactly 20% per day, added every 3 seconds. 😁

I'm pretty sure they do. I believe @amr008 has told me so once.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

@amr008 has just made his answer at https://leofinance.io/@amr008/re-savvyplayer-dyuuw, which summarizes that the longer your comment (or post), the more Resource Credits are consumed upon posting. 😀

Great stuff. He really knows his stuff

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yes it does . That is why not all comments take same amount of RC . The amount of bytes is taken into consideration while calculating RC .

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Thanks for your answer! 😃

Anyway, does a post cost more Resource Credits than a comment with exactly the same content (and tags)? 🤔😅

No no see for blockchain both posts and comments are one and the same .

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Thanks for the fast answer! 😁

I thought before that posts always cost more than comments, but that was because posts are normally longer than comments! 😅

It makes sense. The more you do, the more your are charged in RCs.

Never heard about them actually... You can create an account for free though, can't you?

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

The only way I know to create a free Hive account is to use the #Ecency signup page (subject to availability), unless I have Account Creation Tokens. 🙂

Yea, I think that's what I did

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I am certain that's what you did, because you have @esteemapp as your recovery account! 🕵️‍♂️😅

Yeah through ecency and Leofinance we can but you gotto use your email for verification so if you need like 10 accounts you can't.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Ohh right, that makes sense... I only have one so I never think about that, but it can be necessary for people doing a lot of stuff across multiple tribes I imagine

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Why haven't you thought about having multiple accounts ? You don't curate at multiple tribes ?

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Not really... mostly Leo and a couple of odd votes here and there on other tribes

I don't have a lot of time unfortunately so I just delegate everything to you :P

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I don't have a lot of time unfortunately so I just delegate everything to you :P

Lol okay :p keep doing it , I will keep paying you .

But yeah on a serious note , it is difficult to curate in every single tribe .

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I always use bdvoter to create accounts.

Haven't had any problem so far and it is very quick.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Don't you have an account that has at least 6,000 Hive Power, which can claim an Account Creation Token every 5 days (or don't you have enough Account Creation Tokens for all the accounts you need)? 🤔

No I am at 4.25k HP right now . It will take a lot of time for me to get to 6k unless I decide to invest some fiat .

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Are you checking from time to time if you can claim an Account Creation Token? 🤔 Being able to claim one would save you more or less 3 HIVE for every new Hive account you create. 🤔

There are free ways to do it right?

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yes. 🙂 By reading the comments on my parent comment before us, you would see that I mentioned that #Ecency and #3Speak offers free Hive accounts, and they require just any email address. 😁

I think I made my account through 3speak and I have never used that app for anything but to watch videos. 😬

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I don't know why #BlockTrades still charges 4.1 HIVE just to have a new Hive account created by them for you.

According to Hive.io's signup page (whose screenshot is above), BlockTrades charges $1 for account creation, but 4.1 HIVE is still far from $1 (even with the price dip happening with HIVE and most other crypto right now). 🤯

This is a screenshot of the Hive Account Creation Service page of #BlockTrades. 👇

Paying 5.1 HIVE gives you a Hive account with 1 HIVE in it, so that translates to 4.1 HIVE for a Hive account without any included HIVE. 🕵️‍♂️😅

That looks like a the prices aren't really updating correctly in the price feeds. Are you trying to see what the cheapest way to make an account?

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yes. 🙂 Currently, #Ecency offers the cheapest account creation service (which is free), but I don't want to use up their Account Creation Tokens for other users. 😁

Hey Leofinance is free too and one of the easiest.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

COol I didn't know it was free.. when I first created my account I didn't know about LeoFinance so I just used ecency

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

#Ecency is also cool. 😁 I see no problem using #Ecency and #LeoFinance at the same time, like what I am doing now! 😅

If it requires a phone number to signup, then I don't think it is practically "free". 😔 If it requires a Twitter account to join, I don't think it is easy. 😟 #Ecency requires just an email address, where everyone uses several of them for personal, work/school, gaming, junk, etc. 🤔

I'm sorry that I disagree. 😰

At least, we can create a new Hive account using #Ecency by providing just an email address and then do whatever we want with it (such as posting and curating on #LeoFinance). 😅

That's one of the ways they make money .

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I know the seller can make their own price, but at least whoever manages the Hive.io signup page should change the account creation fee to 4.1 HIVE (instead of $1) to avoid surprising any user wanting to create a new Hive account through #BlockTrades. 🤔🙂

Would there be information from @amr008 (or anyone who records and publishes statistics regarding engagement on #LeoFinance community, particularly here on #LeoMarketTalk) regarding which comments were counted as duplicate from a user? 🤔😁

I think it only checks for similar comments. I think he just uses an API and runs the comments through it to find and duplicates and remove them from total to get unique comments.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Well partially correct and partially wrong.

Yeah it checks only for similar comments .
I don't use API , I have written the script myself to check for similarities between comments .

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Does your script use some sort of AI to determine if two or more comments are "similar enough"? 🤔😁

Not exactly AI lol .

There are some libraries in python which I have used .

I had written a detail post about it actually , I will link it here once I find some time .

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Please mention me when you publish a detailed post about it. 😅

According to @amr008, his bot considers two comments (from the same user) "duplicate" if they have "70% similarity". 🕵️‍♂️😁

The similar comments is for those comments which match 70% of your any other comment .

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Thanks for your answer! 😀 I'll try to get the rest of the details from here. 😁

I liked this tutorial to add liquidity to the CUB Finance farm.
Are you going to increase your funds in CUB Finance?
https://leofinance.io/@jfang003/cub-finance-how-to-stake-in-a-farm

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yea, more and more so

CUB is a great project and it's really going to pay off in the future

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I am thinking of buying more LEO first . Leo price is way too attractive for me to buy . Then if I have anything left then maybe I will buy CUB .

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

That's true... it's a good entry point now for LEO too

I don't think I'll have many funds to spare this month due to some real life stuff that I gotta deal with, but if I have I'll definitely get some too

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Are you going to increase your funds in CUB Finance?

Yes, Until I reach at least 100000 CUBS in my wallet.

$10 CUB will make me a millionaire. 😂

I saw someone doing similar calculations today so it made sense to me.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Heheh that's a pretty good looking round number!

It's gonna take me a while to get there, but that's a fun goal

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I am happy to reach even 10K CUBS. That would still be crazy! In the case of Cub, 10x 15x gains are expected by the end of this year so let's hope for the best.

We were talking about our favorite songs and it made me lookup this. I thought they had been inducted long ago:

That's cool! I also thought they had been induced already! Took them long enough. Their work was truly ground-breaking

My dad has their first record on vinyl and I remember the first time I listened to it with him. It was very different from anything I knew back then

I shared this in another comment, but I thought this was a really interesting infographic. Pretty cool information about initial token distributions if you get the time to check it out:

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Isnt it interesting that they omitted Hive from there.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yeah, I think they were focusing on top 50 coins or something like that. I am not really sure.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yeah not surprising. When the centralized tokens start getting whacked, then people will realize what it looks like when things start to spread out and the value of it.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Thank you for sharing this @bozz.

"Blockchains with concentrated insider ownership may be able to grow out of their initial distribution."

This is so important. I tend to stay away from projects where "Insider" share is more than 20%. It should be 'ZERO' imo and they should have something like Decentralized Fund that would help them to develop it further.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yeah, I agree. It was definitely eye opening for me.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yea the initial distribution includes a bunch of the creators taking a huge paycheck. I wonder how many of them started cashing out as soon as it went live though.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Probably most of them if I had to guess!

The price of lumber coming down. Does that mean we are in a deflationary environment since the run up in that commodity for a few months was a sign of hyperinflation.

Or does this conversation only work one way?

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I don't think so. In my opinion, the chart was looking for a correctly since the price of lumber jumped by a lot. I think it was like 4 times more expensive or what not. In the short term, I still see rates going up due to people's view of the interest rates.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

There has been widespread illegal (or barely legal) logging in my country since the fall of the iron curtain, I think that speaks for itself when it comes to the value of lumber

I have fixed the script ( since it was throwing error yesterday due to 2 posts ) . Running it now , will post the stats soon .

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I'll be looking forward to the stats but I do hope we start getting a few more people to actively come back.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I posted in one of your posts a question about running a script to handle the activity on Leobridge.

Is there a way to get that?

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Well I will need to look into their addresses ( Leo team address ) . I will look into it in depth this weekend okay ?

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I tried to look into their official address ( the one which is where the amount is sent to if we swap ) but it said no transaction at all .

Do you know anybody who have used it ?
