I think the proof is in the pudding is it not? LEO has essentially achieved more in a year than Hive/Steem has in at least 4.
If I were in a handful of top dawgs at Hive, I'd be messaging Khal and asking him how he did it!

See, this is exactly the wrong mentality. LeoFinance build ontop of Hive. It benefited from blocktrades and others dedicating dev work into making Hive scale and to massively reduce node size. But you're not talking about that. The only thing that's talked about it is how LEO bags were mooning.
