The last week has seen a nice run up in the price of LEO. This has a lot of people happy. Obviously we are seeing many people prepare for the release of wLEO which will not only provide people with the opportunity to share in fees garnered through the trading of that token but share in the bounty pool of 300K LEO.

While it is good to enjoy these moments, it is vital to note this is just one step in a series of moves that are being made to improve the entire platform. The goal is one thing: growth. wLEO provides an opportunity to attract more users in the LEO family.

That said, one of the biggest knocks on DeFi on Ethereum right now is that it is mostly just a bunch of pumps and dumps. There could be some projects that are working towards viable products yet most are just quick money grabs.

In other words, the majority of what is taking place on an app like Uniswap is just trading tokens that have nothing behind them.

LEO is aiming to raise the bar on this end. We still are in the early stages of what it to come yet it is always helpful to mention where we came from.

This post is being typed on the new LEO interface which is now in beta. Today, I was fortunate enough to see the new home page (some others might have also before it was taken down for more work). It is a departure from what we are accustomed to.

That said, it is just one page. The exciting part of this is the fact that the new UI will allow for greater flexibility in programming. This means we will receive a host of features that are not present on Hive at all.

Of course, this is in conjunction with LeoDex, LeoShop, and Hivestats, all LEO based websites that enrich the user experience. All of these will be receiving upgrades/reworks as we head into the end of the year.

Blogging is the primary activity on LEO at this point. This will not be the case in the future. Instead, the focus of LEO is to turn it into a financial media epicenter. The hope, from what I can garner, is to provide a place which becomes a valuable resource to tens, if not hundreds, of thousands of people. Blogging simply will not do that.

Fret not my keyboard warriors. Blogging will always be a part of LEO as will its tie to Hive. The reward pool will continue to distribute the LEO token on a daily basis as always regardless of what other ventures are being offered. The essence of the community will not disappear.

Over the years, I talked about tokenization providing the ability to create markets and for platforms to become economies. As we can see with this first step onto Ethereum, markets will be created. This is important in the transformation of our financial system.

One of the keys to LEO is not to be a site where people post about changing the financial system but, rather, be a place that actually does it. We will likely see a host of applications that end up tied to the LEO ecosystem which deliver opportunities to all its users to engage in activities that can radically alter their financial livelihood.

Naturally, the first layer is the LEO token, which this week showed the strength of what is coming. Ultimately, this is a token people are going to want.

The crypto world is filled with people who like to spew their idealogies based upon baises they were handed down which contain a host of misinformation. LEO is providing some of these tenets wrong.

Growth is the key to any project. While others are focusing upon stuff that really means little in the end, this platform is putting its nose to the grindstone and producing. Providing the necessary tools to the community to attract other users is vital. This multi-staged process is already in the works.

Flexibility opens up a lot of options. In short, the LEO platform will look nothing like it does now come New Years 2021. We can expect much to take place between now and then.

Since the move over to Hive, a lot was accomplished by the LEO team. Nevertheless, this is just the start of a great deal more. Once the beta version of the UI goes live, the work on V.2 will begin. That promises to have a host of other features that are present not present within the Hive ecosystem.

In closing, buckle in boys and girls, it is going to be a wild ride.
