As a Hive witness with a presence in the greater crypto community outside of Hive, it's great to have you active and interested in LeoFinance's initiatives to grow Hive :)

There's no denying that plenty of current Hive users are jumping in for a quick buck, but LeoFinance is primarily focused on outward facing content to onboard new users to Hive.

Here are a few things that LeoFinance is doing for the benefit of the greater Hive community:

  • Building a domain far more valuable in the eyes of Google than hiveblog: A Faster, more authoritative (at least for crypto related content) domain will rank evergreen content such as this blog you just wrote. LeoFinance is looking outside the Hive echo-chamber and putting in processes to convert this new traffic into Hive accounts.

  • Hive on-ramps via social media that are far easier than anything HiveOnboard has achieved: This is undeniable right now and a hugeeeee plus for Hive overall. Just look at how much cleaner the process to get a Hive account via LeoFinance is than anywhere else.

As a witness, I'd love to hear your opinion of LeoFinance and how the community fits into the greater goal of seeing Hive succeed?

I'm just a backup witness right now (and good thing too as I'm quite busy with FIO!). I haven't gone through the LeoFinance onboarding process, so I can't really comment on that, but maybe I'll create a new account to try it out. Onboarding is key! It has to be easy.

Well, in a way, LeoFinance represents the dream of "tokenizing the web" and what Smart Media Tokens were all about: create your own community with your own tokenized incentive system with your own unique attributes. If LeoFinance continues to succeed maybe others will follow, demonstrating the value of the Hive blockchain. That's a good thing for everyone.
