I've been a pretty heavy investor into the LEO token over the last few years. Heck even when it first launched I started stacking and even picked up miner tokens called LEOM and LEOMM tokens. My goal for this year is to hit at least 150,000 LEO staked which I'm quickly already coming up to.

How InLEO Reshaped Hive

Hive for the longest time was simply a article marketing site. As much as someone might feel otherwise it was just that. You write articles and others voted on them and based on your staked Hive you would earn from the daily reward pools value. Outside of that Hive really did nothing else. It wasn't until some layer 2 type solutions came on board through the world of the Splinterlands with Hive-engine that we start to see new possibilities finally start to heat up.

It gave people and communities a way to start creating their own tokens and projects which has expended hive into the gaming space along with Videos, shorts and threads.

3speak opened up Hive to the possibilities of video and while I still don't fully agree with everything going on over there in terms of zero focus on generating revenue to be paid to people that produce videos and post them or creating a solid shorts front end to really get into the competition. They do get one thing right and do it well and that's doing their damn best to decentralize it all.

InLeo on the other had opened up hive to what are known as threads. A way to instead of creating massive articles and interacting with people that way we can now interact quickly (pretty much removing the need for things like discord which has been used for a long time to communicate things about hive) This new threads like feature allowed for short form content on hive to finally be rewarded but not only that it opened up new possibilities that finally bring true light to how web3 should operate (at least in my opinion).

Web3 True Evolution

There's two major issues that happened with web2 that really set us back as a civilization. Those where the invasion of privacy and then selling that privacy to make a profit for the company in which the user was left without.

Crypto and web3 have the ability to change this. By restore privacy back to users through privacy type profiles where content is still stored but it has no connection to the person there's no way to backtrack it to them. It also has the ability through blockchain and smart contracts to decentralize the entire ad marketing system. These divided up revenue share can be based on any number of factors thus now giving value back into the hands of the many users instead of a select few.

INLEO and I would say Hive are now reshaping in a big way to bring both of these things to the table. By doing so in my opinion as long as development continues at a more rapid pace across these systems we could see it on the leading edge of what web3 is all about. How it should work by leading by example something hive has done well for a while but seems to just mess up on the finances part of things DH cough coughF for example.
