I checked the "friday" discord channel as I often do to know my Cub worth and I noticed Leo was trading below $0.4. I saw this as an opportunity to get in more Leo into my portfolio and power it up for curation.
I am more aggressive than ever in my quest to climb up the Leo rankings, and so it has led me to buy expeditions. I try to be as active as possible on Leo and due to my on and off schedule around here, I spend more time on curation.
Buying Leo and powering it up is one of my most profitable ventures. I earn quite a lot from curation alone and my immediate goal is to get my Leo stake up to the point where my vote will be equivalent to 1 Leo. I'm still sone way far from that target, with my vote only around 0.32 Leo.
The long-term goal is to get to the first page of the Leo rankings and since that one is relative to the top dogs who earn a lot more Leo than me, it will take quite a long time. For now, I'll just power up all my earnings and Leo purchase in the dex towards growing my leo vote.
If you're not part of the Leo community and will like to participate, there are many ways you can. Other than writing your own posts, powering up Leo and using it for curating is a nice route. Unlike the traditional Hive front end that has that pesky curation curve, Leo is flat.
This flattened curve means that your vote doesn't vary based on the timing of your vote and you earn half for yourself. This makes it a lot easier to track your curation earnings and also makes curation more fun because you don't ever feel "cheated" by the timing.
If you want to get Leo, you can buy it on Leodex on hive blockchain. Outside Hive, there are also wrapped versions of Leo on Ethereum and Binance chain that enables you to participate in liquidity pools. So the liquidity pools present another opportunity to get involved with leofinance and the Leo token without necessarily blogging.
Finally, there's also the awesome community that shares useful and relevant information that you can apply to grow your strategy. In the period that I've been around, I've learnt from people like @empoderat,
@taskmaster4450,
@khaleelkazi and many more about opportunities to gain from.
Buying the Leo token isn't solely about blogging and curation, it is a lot more than that. So if you're seeing this, consider this a timely reminder of the immense benefit that you can get from the Leo token and everything it represents.
