You have to give big props to the leofinance team for their work ethic. We may not be there in terms of growth but the sheer determination to see this place succeed has the team working day in and out. We can take a quick look for ourseleves and realize that no Hive chain project is as maintained as leofinance, and it rivals even the Hive blog in terms of maintenance.
I have seen a few jabs taken by some users on Hive about the 'positivity delusion' that the leofinance community acts under despite there being no evidence for growth over such a sustained period. Granted, those are valid points, and sometimes we do talk about leofinance like we are about to change the World, when we have barely scratched the surface.
Yet there are few tenets that go into the success of anything, and while it isn't a given, we certainly cannot ignore them. Innovation, hardcwork, consistency, dedication, value, and a willingness to share in that success by offering others a slice of the rewards are just some of the things that the leofinance team has brought to the table.
Perhaps none is as important though as some of the projects they've been doing based on community feedback. We have complained about the difficulty in creating an account on Hive and leofinance showed up with perhaps the easiest process available. Now they've offered everyone a chance to participate in the crypto community with Threads. There is absolutely no excuse now for not being able to get your daily crypto information as well as create content on a regular basis.
All these while the community shares in the wealth created. Granted, the pool size is very small as at now and barely worth anything. But would you pass up an opportunity to earn and stack after witnessing all the developments I just mention. Can you now understand the reason for fanaticism on the part of the core community?
One thing I keep realizing as an adult is that providence makes provisions for those who do their part. Leofinance has not only created a general interest niche market on Hive, it has also shown an ability to adjust and adapt to circumstances on the Hive and crypto chain at large. It speaks volumes to the belief in the product the developer team has, and that has translated nicely to the core communityu.
Conclusion
While we continue to heap praises and stack on leo assets it isn't because of some delusion that we may be better than we actually are, rather it is based on evidence from the sheer amount of effort that goes into ensuring this place succeeds.
