LEO 2.0 is now in full effect. The team and community aligned to make a full scale change to the way that the LEO Token Economy operates. Now, LEO is:
- Supply hard-capped to 30M tokens
- 0 inflation
- Buybacks from 100% of protocol revenue
- Deflationary from Bridge revenue
These are the 4 key highlights for LEO 2.0 from a tokenomic perspective. Since LEO 2.0 went live, LEO is already up nearly 300% in price. The price hasn't stopped grinding higher and a big reason for this is that the entire LEO economy is now driven by buybacks. 100% of revenue on LeoDex buys back the LEO token for Protocol Owned LEO (POL) while 100% of the revenue on INLEO buys back the LEO token for the System Income Rewards Pool (SIRP).
In this post, we'll talk about another critical change to the LEO Token Economy that just went live last week: HIVE POWER delegators to 
Earn Liquid Yield on HIVE POWER | 16% APY
The new
These payouts are a static 16% APY for all delegators. A major change from LEO 1.0 to LEO 2.0 is that delegators are now paid from the SIRP.
The SIRP replaced the inflationary LEO Rewards pool model.
The SIRP is entirely funded by buybacks of the LEO token. In simple terms:
- HBD is earned by
@leopool as users who subscribe to INLEO Premium pay for it using HBD
- Creator subscriptions revenue is paid for and earned in HBD
- LeoAds is paid for and earned in HBD and other stablecoins
- Curation Rewards are earned in HIVE
- Beneficiary rewards earned by
@leofinance (when users set us as a beneficiary for using INLEO) are earned in HBD
- Etc.
100% of all these above methods of driving sustainable revenue through https://inleo.io are then pooled into the 
A % of these buybacks are sent to the 
Solving Issues From LEO 1.0 and Paying in a High Value Asset
Some of the issues we faced with LEO 1.0's delegation system were:
- Inconsistent payouts
- Missed payouts
- Complexity on staked/liquid payouts
LEO 2.0's delegation system is completely rebuilt from the ground up. It is an entirely new project that pays delegators every single day from the fixed pool of tokens that flow in from
You'll notice that payouts happen at exactly 12:00 UTC every day and 0 payments have been missed since this system went live. The new system is incredibly robust and if a payout is missed, it will continue to retry until the payout is successful.
We listened to the community's feedback from LEO 1.0 and the following were most important:
- Reliability of payouts
- Consistency of yield
- Clarity on liquid vs. staked (now, only liquid LEO is paid out)
The Benefits of Delegating HP to @leo.voter
There are so many benefits to delegating your HP to
- You get paid liquid LEO yield every single day (as opposed to staked HP)
- You don't have to do anything. Simply delegate HP to
- Get paid in an asset that is appreciating: this adds to the yield you earn. Not only are you earning 16% APY in liquid tokens every day but the token (LEO) you're getting paid in actually appreciates over time. Now that LEO 2.0 is in effect, you will see that LEO rises in value over time as buybacks continue to put pressure on the price and Bridge revenue removes LEO from circulation. The supply of LEO is already approaching 29M and will dwindle over time, making the non-burnt LEO tokens more and more valuable
- Support the INLEO Ecosystem of users - we curate threads and blog posts on INLEO using our HIVE POWER + LEO POWER. These curation efforts drive more users to utilize the platform daily which increases our 5+ mentioned revenue streams. This creates a positive feedback loop that grows the value of LEO over time
