Price Appreciation - Crypto's Primary Selling Point? The Facts when one begins to consider the “casualties” of 2022, it becomes abundantly clear just how many Crypto investors are rather unconcerned with self-custody. For many, that has perhaps since changed. Loss and potential loss are completely different and are also uniquely interpreted by the human mind. Most people enter a casino with the understanding that they are likely to lose money. However, for many, this is not…

Stuck In Legacy Mode… TradFi Losing Ground Those who have created or inherited wealth within the world of TradFi and legacy-styled businesses have a strong sense of loyalty and dependence on old and outdated business models. Many will argue that not everyone can become a Crypto-based entrepreneur or business person, and this is true. However, what they can do is begin exposing themselves to it, as well as incorporating it into their current business models in some way.…
Leofinance - Increased Utility, A Step In The Right Direction Cause & Effect I think many Hivers will agree that when it comes to development, Leofinance is very much leading the pack within the Hive ecosystem. The various DeFi initiatives, as well as the more recent introduction of Threads, reveal a team motivated to create something of significant value. However, this is a journey that requires persistence, creativity, and constant development. https://leofinance.io/…
Positioning Within Inflationary-Based Asset Models Positive Aspects Of Inflation When it comes to Crypto projects, one of the most important aspects of success is that of tokenomics. This incorporates the “minting” of new coins via an inflationary-based model. Yes, much to the surprise of some, even Bitcoin is an inflationary-based asset. This will continue to be the case until approximately 2140. This is when the last Bitcoin will be mined, or at least is expected to be,…
HBD - A Stablecoin "Trade" That Puts The Odds In Your Favor Trading Stablecoins? Trading stablecoins for profit is not really much of a strategy, as any fluctuation in price is usually rather minuscule. However, if you are able to find a stablecoin that fluctuates within a specific range from time to time, you just might have discovered one of the most “guaranteed” trades in the marketplace. However, these fluctuations need to move within a certain range and meet certain…

DeFi has managed to resolve many of the issues associated with financial services, as well as transactions. These primarily being, friction and custody. As a result, the sector has managed to amass a strong community of advocates. However, there are also…
FLEX Rockets By 50X During The First Quarter Of 2023 Bucking The Trend DeFi-based projects often tend to suffer rather significant losses during bear markets, and even during the formative stages of a new bull market. It’s a sector that appears to insist on a solid bottom formation before it considers embarking on its next bullish ascent. Markets can be fickle, and this is especially true of the DeFi sector. It’s definitely not for the faint of heart.…
WEB3 - A Remnant Of Satoshi's Ideology An Inescapable End The introduction and adoption of blockchain is an exciting development. However, as with all things, it’s not a perfect evolution. In many ways, as more and more people, companies, and entities adopt blockchain… the true essence of this idea begins to fade. Had the development of the Crypto space over the past 14 years remained well within Satoshi’s ideals, many casualties would have been avoided.…
The Benefits Of Building A Business Within A Digital Economy (Part 1) Consumption & Production Economies revolve around the consumption and production of goods and services. Since the inception of the internet, online business models have sought to combine the “real” world with the “virtual” world. In many of these instances, the online aspect merely played a role in the ordering and delivery of a real-world product or service. Over time, virtual products were introduced in…
Envisioning Your Crypto Future & Why It's Imperative Aimless Endeavors There are many who enter the Crypto space with an expectation of what they wish to achieve… and yet, simultaneously, have no idea how they are going to get there. Many of these “investors” believe it’s as simple as buying a random list of alts, and then hodling to the moon. Furthermore, their idea of hodling is almost always, yet another, unrealistic expectation.…
TradFi - More Than The Erosion Of Trust You Can Take That To The Bank! A bank is an institution that will lend you money, provided you can prove that you don’t need it. I have known people with assets and investments who have been refused a loan before. It sounds like a contradiction to my opening sentence, doesn’t it? However, banks seem to live in a world of their own. What they really want to see is income. https://leofinance.io/posts/@leoglossary/leoglossary-bank…

Investments That Generate Passive Income - What Matters Most? The Same Page Firstly, a common misunderstanding in regard to passive income, is that it requires investment. This is not necessarily the case. Although I will be addressing this particular aspect of passive income, it is also important to bear in mind that this can also be achieved via other “creative” methods. Perhaps, I will address some of these methods at a later stage. However, for now, it’s back to the…
Shorting Memecoins - Avoiding The Number 1 Mistake Feeding Frenzy Just as everyone jumps on the bandwagon of a mooning memecoin, there are also those waiting to ride it down in a short position. For those unfamiliar with shorting, It’s basically a typical “BUY” order in reverse. Simply put, the trade becomes profitable once the price begins to drop from the point of entry. Thus, we have a “LONG” position, which is, in essence, the same as purchasing tokens and waiting for…
Crypto - Finding A Routine That Works The Crypto Life For some, Crypto is everything… for others, it’s a bit of a passion, a side hustle. Either way, making time to “get stuck in” can sometimes be a little challenging. Many people already feel as if they don’t have enough hours in the day. However, that excuse is simply not going to cut it. Establishing a routine, or even re-establishing an existing routine needs to be a primary objective if you are looking to make any…
