July 19, 2023Evergreen Content is coming, Ads protocol almost ready, and LPUD 2.0
Well, after a two week hiatus by the Cat there is much to catch up on as the Sooniverse becomes NOW at a blistering pace!
Recap on some things that have happened before we touch on what is in the works!
Deployment Real Time Threads: The Threads feed gets updated live whenever there's a new Thread. People loved it but it was a little buggy, so we are cleaning the code to re-launch it some time this week.

The 2nd official partnership with OnixCoin and their flagship game Army of Crypto went live. Make sure to check their community page and add engagement there. Go check their game and make a review on Leo!

The Trending Tags got some love and look awesome now, with a hot tag next to the top three.
Rich search: Lions can search for anything in the search box, and they will get suggestions based on users, tags, and communities. These suggestions are clean and separated from each other, improving the user experience.
The Explore Page got a whole new feeling. Lions wanted a more friendly discovery option and we heard them. It is now easier to browse content and there's also a who to follow section with some of the most active authors on Threads and most prolific writers in high quality Long form content.
On to what is coming up SOON:
The bookmarks feature is getting an update

Image uploading on HiveSigner+ Word count feature, finally

New tickers are coming

Threads section to community pages incoming

Favorites menu incoming

News2Threads is getting a lot of action,more sites will be added and a batch of users to start using it - if you want to be a tester, write to anomadsoul

Three more partnerships coming, but we need the Lions to help us populate the existing ones and try out the apps of our partners: If this partnerships succeed, more projects will come. Check out SanR and ArmyOfCrypto
LPUD got a new approach:
With the price rise, lower inflation, less liquid out there, and 5M+ Leo powered up in a year, LPUD gets ranks now:
Lion attack (150 leo)

Cub attack (50 leo)
This will give users a chance to participate even if they can't power up 150 month after month. The badge and the full prize array is still only available for 150 power ups, but there are some prizes for the Cub attack -> LPUD adapts to the new LeoVerse growth scenario.
Community Feedback and Help...
Anyone can post to any community now from leofinance.io, help us spread the word and try using leofinance for everything. We know habits are strong, but step out of your comfort zone!
Again: We need your feedback, check this post to participate:

June 29, 2023 New Ads model, LPUD succeeds again, and Curation reports
Lion Stronk! What a great past week of updates and growth.
A Review of What Is and Was:
+ AdSense in the mix -> more personalized regionalized ads are not hitting your page!
+ The Zealy prize pool was mostly powered up, and those who sold, the market gobbled their LEO and we're back at 8c already -> leo stronk.
+ The Ad revenue display on Threads launched on the last call and is pretty cool feature. Remember that this feature is coming to Long Form as well.
LPUD came and went
227k Powered Up and 179 Lion powered up atleast 150 leo.
+ The goal was 200 but maybe the price of Leo played a role here, a ton of people powered up 50-100 leo as well
+ June LPUD saw the second most number or lions power up.
Price action - 140% up from YTD Low (0.033c in March)
The first Curation reports are out!
They will come out every Sunday, follow @leo-curation and add the account to your autovotes, it helps us reward curators! Once a month, @leofinance will post a mega-monthly report.
Coming updates:
+ Discord future updates: #resources, #roadmap, #tutorials are coming!
+ AdRev is looking to be around 5k/month
+ We are advancing on NFTs - > concept is almost done, use cases being worked on, backend being taken care of ....Soon.
+ We have "Info points" and "ambassadors" solving questions on discord now, the team is now made of ~15 Lions who help grow the LeoVerse through many mini-initiatives - curation is a big one of them!
Leo runway for operations is still multi-year with a basket of stables, bitcoin and ETH held.
Updates on LeoCache
LeoCache is going to solve tons of problems, such as the scroll not keeping up. This will be implemented SOON.
New updates on the UI?
Trading League is live, no official announcement out yet though.
This first one is a test to see how it works.
You can come play and try to break stuff here:
https://sanr.app/clubs/LeoFinance
Marketwatch
+ BTC Dominance at 50% for the first time in 2 years! Price is back above 27k!
+ Blackrock's ETF application- they have rarely ever received a denial
+ BNB chain starts testnet on their L2 powered by Optimism
+ IMF doubles down on CBDCs and envisions a single ledger cross-border payment platform
Another Roaring Week in LeoFinance (yeah, I said that lol)

June 14, 2023 The price of Leo is mooning, and Our Zealy Campaign comes to an end
The Wensoon Show 196
Price of LEO is skyrocketing!
Leo keeps pushing higher the past few weeks and it continues to look strong:
+ Between the new UI, new tokenomics, community loyalty and the Gamification side all created a huge synergy that has $leo on and uptrend contrary to the whole market, we mooning.
Zealy came to an end: cardiac finish!
+ The top 10 really had to grind to stay on top. @Underlock and @Nonsowrites took 1st and 2nd, congrats!
+ As a final battle we had three armies who competed to create threads (that took character count, tags usage, poll usage, correct link sharing and more): black lions army defeated white and brown lions on an epic 36-hour battle with more than 23k quality threads.
+ Winners will be officially announced and prizes transferred on the 14th.
No keyword this week, but SOON
People already miss their quests, miss their hustling. Good news though - Zealy is here to stay! So instead of missing the grind use this time to rest cause on the 18th the grind begins again!
Lpud is coming.
+ May was a record month for Leo powered up! Nearly 1.5M thanks to Zealy quests and the team powering up.
So for June we have the goal is having 200 Lions or more powerup atleast 150 LEO. No total Leo goal cus Lions are dry… or are they? Either way, power up at least 150 Leo and do your part!
UI and Ad Revs
+ View counters on threads and ad rev generated by the threads is a thing now.
It breaks down how many people saw it capped at 3 views per dynamic IP so it’s not rigged. This also adds another layer or gamification that goes even one step further than Twitter!
+ The new long form discovery layout went live and it’s beautiful, users can see either Leo Finance or the whole Hive Blockchain. So cool!
Crypto Market Chatter
The SEC continues its obvious war against crypto. The blowback they didn't expect was the SEC stabilization act that is not being bandied about.
Hive had a huge presence at web3 Berlin this past weekend, Leo even had a small booth so potential users learn about the Leoverse. Big success for the hive ecosytem.
Elsewhere, U.S. inflation fell to 4% year over year so most expect the FED not to raise rates. How this impacts crypto remains to be seen.
Interesting times per the usual.

June 13, 2023 A hack that did nothing, tons of updates and some Gensler chat - WenSoon Show 195
Another week gone by and this one was a doozy! The leofinance discord server got hacked and the crypto market sold off (those items aren't exclusively related lol)
Lion Strong
At the end of the day, the leofinance server was down about three hours before everything got rectified.
Furthermore the hackers only got $40 from the community from what we have seen.
So basically, leofinance 1 hackers 0.
This does remind us though that we should never click on random links and that DMs soliciting things do not come from mods.
SEC hating again...
The SEC filed suit against Binance with multiple charges and then to put icing on the cake...they decided to sue Coinbase as well.
The irony in that is coinbase filed suit against the SEC a while back demanding answers from them on what coins are and are not considered securities so that they could be in compliance.
Leofinance Updates
And amidst all this week's drama the dev team is still cranking out updates.
The latest is notifications. The notifications page is updated for a better user experience.
A really cool feature is you can search through your notifications by user if you want to see all the interactions a specific user has done in regard to your content.
Login in and actions...
Basically everything works great outside of those using hivesigner. That seems to have some bugs still. Bug fix channel on discord to report anything you find.
Payouts
Posts now show the payouts in leo and hbd when you hover over the amount. The hbd number is the value of the hive and hbd you are receiving. The text will likely be updated to show "hive rewards" or something to that effect.

June 08, 2023 Cat's back, massive updates to the UI and a new Curation process - WenSoon 194
After a week away the cat is back! I have Khal giving us all the latest UI updates for leofinance and I gave all my opinions on the long form experience cus we all know I'm an old school blogger!
Lions and Threads, Oh My!
Long Form new Editor is here - and this cat loves how seamless it is to create posts now.
Still a bug here or there but otherwise so much better. Remember, submit bugs to the bug fix channel in discord.
Community Polls - Polls are working wonders, 21 communities still thriving and decentralized voting the author of the week. Pretty cool!
Payout Display - if you hover over the payout display it will give you a breakdown of it.
Leo Curation
The curation update seems to be working well as there is more defined actions on how to have a chance at getting upvotes from the leo acct.
The details are listed here on how to best go about it: https://leofinance.io/posts/leofinance/a-complete-overhaul-to-curation-on-leofinance-be-active-and-earn-big-upvotes-32m-hp
ThreadStorms!
Are lions have been getting more active, with a hell of a threadstorm a week ago as you can see the number of lions remains solid while the activity increases.
And so much more...
But you gotta watch the replay if you want it all as cat can't type that fast!

June 07, 2023 LPUD breaks records, new Tokenomics in full swing, new user record! - WenSoon show 192
What an awesome week in the leofinance ecosystem!
We saw LPUD hit a new record and the inflation rate on LEO get dropped, we'll get into it all below.
LPUD Hits New Record!
Power up day had a hell of a day with 525K leo being powered up, shattering the prior record of 333k.
267 lions powered up and it game from all levels: dolphins, plankton and others.
LEO Inflation and Burns
The inflation rate on LEO dropped from 25k a day to 5k due to burns and the purchase of leo to pay out delegator curation rewards.
This trend should continue as the bounty acct needs to buy more leo as delegators continue to grow.
Monthly Active Users
Leofinance continues to see growth here as MAUs already hit 1,030 by the halfway mark of the month.
There have been 71K threads in May already, crushing the previous record of 43K in February.
Curation Updates
The way threads are curated has seen some changes and the @leogrowth account is the place to see what that entails.
It mainly has to do with limits based on pride rank and such.
Other random updates
Account switching is now live so soon is now. Photo uploading is also live, mainly seems to work fine on desktop - mobile is a wildcard and should be good in the next week or so.
Following tab for longform is in the sooniverse, along with editing threads.
Crypto Market Chatter
Bitcoin teased as all and poked below that 27k area support before rallying and forming a reversal candle. Price has not really rallied off that yet, but it also has held the support so it will be interesting to see what happens over the rest of the week with price.
Onward and upward
Bugs keep getting worked out and features added so the UI expereince continues to get better. Until next time!

May 10, 2023 Breaking records, New Features and Our Adoption Campaign - WenSoon Show
This was the break stuff episode as the UI was down during the AMA with live BETA being in Full Force!
Updates
The Profile has gotten updates as the BLOG link is now live and drafts are good to go as well.
Setting page is coming soon with lots more options as well.
Zealy Campaign KEYWORD(S)
For those who may have missed it, the keyword(s) were announced on the AMA!
Here is a link to the replay so you can find them!
WEN NODE
The UI is down because leofinance is making to many calls to the HIVE nodes and are being limited or just choking node production.
Possible fixes:
Create Leofinance's own node
Spread leofinance calls out amongst all the nodes
Sounds like option one is being leaned on as going forward it would make sense because volume is only gonna grow.
Random Crypto
Bitcoin is floundering in the mid 27k area near the lower end of it's current trading range. Are we bullish right now, are we bearish. It is up for speculation. This cat thinks we are neither at the moment.

May 03, 2023The new Leo Finance User Interface is here! - Launch Party
The day is finally here. The new UI is now the live and technically beta as some features still need to be rolled out, but leofinance domain will take you to the new look UI.
Soon is Now!
The biggest update into the new UI is the leoinfra update that enables to social logins/sign ups to leofinance.
Zealy Campaign
The zealy campaign is spreading the word as new people are coming in looking to create accounts and some have questions on how too, so lend a helping hand if you see anyone inquiring.
Speaking off zealy, today's keyword is....
Mainstream
Microblogging for the win!
Most new users coming in will likely engage in the short form which makes sense. Short-form is easier to engage and should help increase engagement rate.
Long Form is Not Dead
As the beta period of the new leofinance progress the accessibility to long form will become easier to find.
I know this cat will still be creating long form content and the trending category will show long form content once all the dust settles.
Sign Up & Account Keys
Multitasking is a mofo. Between trying to write this recap, thread, host the livestream and interact in the discord chat I miss pieces of what Khal is sharing. Oops.
There was a piece of about sign up and login through twitter for example. It sounded like after creating an account, after doing so you can download and change your keys so that leofinance is no longer storing/holding your keys.
On the flipside, you would use your private keys to login and no longer your twitter ID to login.
This makes sense for those who want to use other HIVE based Dapps. For those just looking to interact on leofinace than using twitter ID works just fine, no need to mess withe keys if not desired.

SEO Improvement
With the new UI the SEO ranking will likely improve due to several reasons including internal links, etc.
Leoglossary will be a part of this growth as you will be able to search leoglossary within threads. Thus links from that being used.

LeoAds
The big updates to leoads will be live come later this month, atleast that is the word in the soonerverse.

And so much more
Plenty more was talked about, from current features to coming soon features like personalized feeds (which I really look forward too).
Not all of it made the post, which is why joining us on the call is always the move!
Onward and upward. Let's grow the community.
