Up until today I was not posting much on LeoFinance. Just accumulating those LEO tokens, upvoting once in a while manually, running few wild upvoting bots 24/7, to chase the fattest possible curation rewards. Oh yes, even some comments, when I could not walk away without leaving a few words.
But the time for changes has come. It always happens, when something is brewing for a very long.
Remember that famous "Wind of Change" in the 1990 ? By SCORPIONS ?
The change to the flat rewards scheme for curators was the last drop. I stopped all my 24/7 bots on LeoFinance immediately, and started manual curations. The way I had a wish to do for a long time, just could not go against myself, to the route of fewer rewards.
Yesterday I made my trial post in LeoFinance, and it was a total fail. Obviously, due to the HF24 on Hive, this post got completely lost.
Even today is is not visible on the main root level of my blog here (leofinance.io/@onealfa), and the post still holds a fat round 0.00 LEO of rewards.
One more trial done this morning. A bit better, but still far from what I expected. And here I discovered probably one major reason - I do not have enough followers! Only 76 followers on steemleo.io site, on my alt account, while I'm getting close to 5600 with the main, on HIVE.
Sure, I know, many of them are dead, and maybe dead for ever. But yet, perhaps a few hundreds are still sticking around. My long 4.5 years on Steem/Hive have left some footprints. 😃
So solution became completely obvious:
@onealfa, while curations, upvotes, comments in LeoFinance will remain on my alternative acct 
@onealfa.leo.I think very few will have any doubts, that these two accounts belongs to the same person. 😃
In fact, when new tribes have started to pop up on Steem this year, I've made a separate accounts for most tribes which I was active.
Like onealfa.pal onealfa.ccc onealfa.life onealfa.neox onealfa.sports onealfa.dlike onealfa.zzan onealfa.spt onealfa.btl onealfa.gg onealfa.photo onealfa.leo, onealfa.appics. Maybe 14 or 15 of them. I don't even remember all of them.
Why it was good to have so many ?
I could easy separate my stakes of each token, and set specific, individual curation rules on each bot, each tribe. Avoiding unwanted authors, unwanted tags, unwanted keywords, unprofitable posts, optimizing the voting power and curation timing. And most important - avoiding of wasting my voting power of certain token, where it was not of any use, any profit.
I must say, it worked, and worked pretty well for a while. Until.... most of those tribes died. Well, not all, and not completely.
But look what they a worth for today. At one time I was holding 1.5 million photo, 1.7 mln AFIT tokens. Not sure how many thousand Steem I put into them. Finally, when it went to 0.0000000001 or so of Steem , I dumped all. Got maybe 50-70 Steem back 😃
So, if you are one of those 76 followers of onealfa.leo, I suggest you better also ad my main account
Some plans for much more active posting has been brewing in my head for quite some time.
And I hope, I will find something interesting enough to say to my followers.
Plus, as a bonus, there you can find many of my old posts about life here in a small, tiny country Lithuania, in the very middle of Europe.
Stay tuned.
