Leo Timeline Announcement

This post is put out on behalf of @khaleelkazi. He is swamped right now so the intention is to set some parameters as to what is coming and some target dates.

It will cover a few of the projects that most of us are aware of. However, if you do not know what they refer to, please check out the @Leofinance official account for the posts pertaining to these different projects.

Please also keep in mind that these are target dates. The official stance of the Leofinance team will be clearly stated. At the same time, the speculative date will also be noted.

So let's get started.

LeoFi

This is the exciting new project that is going to really help Leofinance get into the DeFi game. It is, afterall, a website about finance so it only makes sense that we have financial stuff to offer.

LeoFi is going to, ultimately, be a multi-faceted platform offering many of the services that we are familiar with. There will be leasing, lending, and a host of other ways for people to get involved and earn a return on their crypto.

The first piece to come out is the part where people can lease out their LEO Power.

Official target date: Beginning of March

Unofficial target date: March 7 at 11 AM EST (because a goal without a date is not truly a goal).

LeoInfra

Here we have the foundation that allows for signing up on Leofinance with either a Twitter or Metamask account Both allow one to engage in the site while not having to learn all about Hive right off the bat. This will come in handy with another project that will be mentioned in a moment.

The next iteration is going to expand the ways people can sign up. This could include Facebook, Google, and even Email. The idea is to give people as many ways to access what Leo is offering to streamline the process.

It is vital to note that everyone who signs up, regardless of what method, receives a Hive account. This will be resident on the Leo servers until the individual claims it. There will be more information urging users to claim their account and how to handle their keys.

Official target date: End of February

Unofficial target date: February 26th at 11 AM CST (CST so Khal doesnt have to figure out if he adds or subtracts an hour).

ProjectBlank

This is the game changer. It looks like there are a few people who are excited about it. In fact many have inquired about when it will be out. This post is a nice way of saying "stop f*cking asking" (my words, not Khal's).

ProjectBlank is the microblogging app that is being referred as "Twitter on the Blockchain". This will integrate into Twitter in a similar manner as to how Leofinance.io can tweet out posts.

There will be a token drop going along with it but this post does not contain either an official or unofficial timeline on the snapshot or drop. So we will just have to wait on that.

Office target date: End of February

Unofficial target date: February 28th at 5 PM UTC (UTC to keep some in the EU from whining so much about how everything is slanted towards America. Happy now?).

Keep in mind these are targets. The official dates could be sooner, could be later. That is life in development. As for the unofficial, they might be more reliable although it must be remember that I made them up and they really have no bearing on reality. Hence why they are unofficial.

Ongoing Development

Leofinance and ProjectHope are built from the same code. This means that updates can happen at a rapid pace. The first version of ProjectHope will likely be a MVP to get it out there. Over time we will see more functionality added.

There are different developers working on each. The fact the code is similar means that, as one develops new features, they can quickly be added to the other application.

Also, and this is very important, do not be surprised to see integration between the two applications. This is going to provide a powerful mechanism to the Leo platform. The ProjectHope app, while completely separate, will not be operating in a vacuum. It will be tied, down the road, to Leofinance.io.

On this point, consider this the unofficial announcement of an unofficial announcement of what might, perhaps, become an official announcement at some point.

It is going to be an exciting 3 or 4 weeks. Again, these are rough estimates based upon where the development stands now. If everything goes smoothly, we might see things happening a bit quicker. However, if the developers find a bunch of bugs as they try to take things live, we could experience some setbacks in terms of the time.

Between now and then, I expect we will see a number of other communiques from @leofinance detailing how things are progressing and what we expect.

Hang on gang, things are about to get very interesting.

I await the most the LeoFi as it will bring a lot of possibilities to Leo and Hive. Gamechanger at least to say.

@Leofinance is the flagship at the moment for this blockchain, of course there is a good development elsewhere, but the features that bring people will be the ones mentioned here.

We all need to push Hive out of the position where it is at the moment and bring it at least back in the top100. This is done by going to the people that drain the Hive and dump it to the exchanges.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

We just need to concentrate on getting more people active and the projectblank will accomplish that I believe.

Over time, the marketcap of Hive will take care of itself. We are going to see a great deal more taking place than just Leo but it is a great start.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Thanks for the unofficial dates. At least now, we can stop guessing on an estimate for when they come out. I plan to power-up all my LEO for the up-coming airdrop and then I'll work on getting the last 2-3 LBI to get an even 50.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yeah the targets are there for people to see.

I would presume that we get an official announcement telling us when the snapshot will be for the airdrop.

It only makes sense to give people are few days before getting the picture.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Is that for real? LeoFi, beginning of March?

That is the targeted date according to Khal.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I don't know why I associated a Q2 target date with LeoFi. Don't tell Khal about it, March sounds great! :D

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yeah well I think the heavy stuff will be Q2.

But the rollout looks like it will be in March with at least the first feature. Lending and some other things might not see light until the second quarter.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I'm also a fan of this development cycle: MVP + incremental updates as they are developed (and tested).

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

That is true. Get the product out then start updating. Nothing worse than an app/website that is still the same a year or two later.

We see too much of that on Hive.

Leofinance.io changed a great deal over the last 9 months and projectblank will also.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Looks like I'm going to get a nice present for my birthday. Buckle up, continue staking and thanks Taskmaster!

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

It will miss mine in the middle of the month but, what the hell, I can wait.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Oh, when is it you will be celebrating your birthday, in advance to you too @taskmaster4450le

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

We can put together something for you, as a consolation prize :)

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

You would?

Gee you guys are all heart.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Gee you guys are all heart.

You don't know the half of it :)

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

And I probably do not want to. LOL

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

In advance brother, I Will appreciate if you don't mind sharing your birthday date with us

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

With the three huge projects likely to be in full fledged before ending of April I think it's delicately poised. I myself I'm looking forward to PROJECTBLANK because it seems to be exciting, there's so much questions as to how microblogging will work without abuse to the system and how it'll ultimately be the killer project of leofinance. Thanks for the update. More communiques promises to be exciting.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

It is able to work without abusing the system because it has its own token which the economy will be built upon. It does not matter what happens outside of that in terms of how people operate.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Project Blank is my most awaited thing on Hive. Really...
I am curious about LeoFi though because it sounds interesting and also profitable, but haven't yet played with lending and leasing and honestly not actively participating in any DEFI project.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

They will certainly add to the platform and all that is offered on here. Imagine if we had liquidity pool capability like they have on Ethereum? What would that do for the platform?

How cool would it be to "wrap" Bitcoin or Ethereum and have them tied to LEO? Or even Hive?

So many possibilities as to what is possible. Leo is going to have a multitude of exchanges.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Era of abundance, right?

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Certainly feeding into it.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Keeping everyone in the loop is really important and adds to the hype. Looking forward to this and it is great to have so much positivity around.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

3 weeks and counting (unofficially of course).

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Of course lol.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Would it be obsessive of me to post the hours and minutes?

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

A count down clock lol with regular updates of unofficial announcements.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Hmm I might have to hack into the site, unofficially of course, to place a countdown clock widget.

You think Khal would notice if I did that?

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Nah. He won't notice as they are now under pressure to deliver the goods on your official/unofficial times.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

The more they're keeping us in the suspense, the more interesting we are with the projects.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

What do your mean by unofficial dates? taskmaster: "I made them up " . Priceless :)))

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Glad you liked that.

Now let's see how accurate they are.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

well, you can always make up new ones :P

I am better at forecasting after the fact. My hindsight is much better than my foresight.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Each announcement makes me more impatient😭😭😭😭....I guess I'm just very bored

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I am not bored and I, too, am very impatient with this.

It is painful to wait but, alas, that is what we must do.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I'm not pained. I'm only happy I have some times more to plan and be a part of the big things to come.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

It's normal to be anxious, but by the time it happens all the anxiety will wipe off, just relax, we are all going to be here when it happens, it's very close to reality now

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Thanks G!

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

What is ProjectHope? The alternative title of the not yet released title of ProjectBlank? I think I am getting lost in so much inofficiality...

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Correct.

I meant projectblank.

For some reason I keep calling it that.

Mistake on my part.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

"stop f*cking asking"

Now, at least, asking would be stopped up until the end of the February, I hope, after that there won't be any need for it.

UTC to keep some in the EU from whining so much about how everything is slanted towards America. Happy now?

I am not happy, you didn't use UTC/GMT ... LOL

Joke aside, these all are exciting news. Many might not be able to participate or take advantage of all of them initially but for sure these are excellent opportunities for many if not now then in the near/far future, Leofinance has already changed the value of many of the accounts on Hive (considering monetary, importance, reach et cetera aspects).

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

There is a lot going on and we all should be excited. Anyone involved in Leofinance, in my opinion, is going to do very well in the future.

I agree this is a true game changer for all of Hive. Many account saw their position change with Leo as compared to Hive. Now ass in the new project with the blank token and we will see what comes of it.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Anyone involved in Leofinance, in my opinion, is going to do very well in the future.

I agree with you and also hope for the best.

I am not happy, you didn't use UTC/GMT ...

HA ha.
I've noticed most Americans have hard time getting away from their EST, PST, CST... :)

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

🙂

I think, other than many Americans many of the "Global Village" citizens are used to them, as well.

Yo task, I have a q.

Once leo starts running on the side chain, will the rewards split? In terms of earning "only" leo when posting on Leofinance UI.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

No change in that regard. The sidechain handles the token, same as Hive-Engine. What takes place on Leofinance is the same, just where the token is distributed is different.

Toruk was happy to read this...

More info why you see this.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I was happy to write it.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Thanks for the unofficial dates good sir.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

This is exciting considering my name is literally BLANK. Can't wait! :D

I'm relatively new on LeoFinance, and I was amazed about LeoFi. I heard about ProjectBlank already, and it's something I am looking forward of as well.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

We are glad you are here and participating. Things are really starting to get interesting so a good time to be involved.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Each one of alone is game changer and there combined effect will be amplified together will be killer.

It will on board lot of user and lot of growth and help us to reach out more, that in turn further accelerate the growth.

Let's gear up for putting welcome messages for incoming users.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Very true. We are going to have a lot to offer the newer users as they come on board. It is really going to be exciting to watch things grow over the next 6 months.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Thank you for the news.
It’s amazing!
2AD30B5E4D1F48D4AF6999D09DCDFDD1.jpeg

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

It is exciting stuff. Amazing is, hopefully, an understatement.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

This is huge!! Everyone on social media needs to get in on this. Thank you LeoFinance!

LOL

We will start with the goal of 100K and then work on the rest.

Deal?

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yes, let us find the willing and the ambitious first.

For me there has still lot of thing to learn about leofinance as it look like a DeFi protocol project but i believe it will success in future.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I am very excited! Power up LEO

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Love this! While I know most times a target date wont be hit it's still nice to have these goals in place to give a roadmap as to what is planned and when. It holds people somewhat accountable but also builds up hype and anticipation. All of these are great projects seriously huge undertakings each alone so doing all three in such a short fashion is going to be groundbreaking for this platform.

Just a quick thank you to all those involved. Appreciate the work you all do.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I think it is helpful to know that it is weeks not months. The mindset is there so we can follow. Could it be 5 weeks instead of 4? Sure. But we know it wont likely be 3 months instead of 4 weeks.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Can't wait for march to get huge update from Leo Finance :)

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I think you will get a huge update from @Leofinance long before March. The White Paper is huge and I have a feeling that will be released before ProjectBlank.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Great news.
This is the affirmative notice
we expect everyday.
Great way to begin this week.

!BEER

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

This is the affirmative notice
we expect everyday.

I dont speak to Khal that often so I dont think everyday is possible. LOL

Besides, things are going fast but I am not sure that fast.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

At least you are able to keep us on the loop
Everyday is a metaphor that we continue
Get the info that is needed to the community.
You personally are able to keep us up to date

Good stuff. It seems that bugging khal is the unofficial Leo hobby. I'm pumped for project blank.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Keeps him on his toes. LOL

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I thought I was more in the loop than I was apparently. What's the ProjectHope you mentioned? Looks like I missed something, Or did I?

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

That was an error. It is projectblank.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Thanks a lot for taking the time for the updates. Eagerly waiting for all the instruments. Especially the Microfinance App. Cheers Sensei!

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

It is actually bigger than just microfinance. It is a standalone app that is going to allow for any type of content just like Twitter.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

It is actually bigger than just microfinance. It is a standalone app that is going to allow for any type of content just like Twitter.

That's a good addition! I didn't know that before. I'm using Noise.Cash for a while now and like the fact that I can also share some of my other interest there.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

You will be able to add all your interests to the blank app when it is released.

That is why it is being referred to as "twitter on the blockchain".

Just like twitter post what you want, when you want, as often as you want.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Nice!
I made the assumption that the microblogging posts also had to be finance related.
But you know what they say about assumptions 😀

You said: "projecthope" 🤔🤔🤔 Did you leak some information???

Posted using Dapplr

No that is just a mistake on my part. I meant projectblank.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

If projectblank goes well, I might even consider quitting Twitter for good. LeoFi sounds like money to me 🤡 DeFi = Money
The stakes are so high I am betting a $10 Leo this year. Looking forward to seeing these things materialise.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

You can do both. Projectblank will feed into twitter just like Leofinance does.

So whatever you post on projectblank can also be posted on Twitter.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

That's not bad a idea. Win on both fronts. We await the launch.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Wow Great updates, Leofinance proves again and again to be a great project built well and above all in continuous evolution.
End of February and March will be two exciting months!
Thanks for this info
!BEER

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

They most certainly will. It is tough to be patient with all the exciting stuff that is taking place.

We can only hope the development goes smoothly and the bugs are not too severe.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I'm all for setting targets with actual dates. It instills confidence in the team.

If you miss them, it's not the end of the world as long as we have a track record of delivering in the end. Which the team definitely does.

Thanks for the roundup mate :)

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yeah development makes it impossible to forecast 100% but at least people know we are dealing with weeks and not months.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Reading this post makes me extremely bullish on LEO! Can't wait to see what the future has in store. Exciting times to be around.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

It isnt that well written...lol

There is a lot to be excited about. I am sure there are equally as exciting things lined up after these applications/updates take place.

April and May are going to be great times on Leo also.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Thanks for bringing this to us, waiting patiently for these update especially the micro-blogging app. It will do so much in the boost of leofinance tribe and its value

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

We all are. It is a pain in the ass to wait but we can rush development. They are trying to get out as much as they can as quickly as they can.

A few more weeks might not kill us, but then again it might.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

It's so difficult to stay quiet and not get hyped seeing all these .

Btw I think in the last section (Ongoing development) you meant to say #projectblank but you have written #projecthope or am I wrong?

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

You are correct. Error in my typing.

Projecthope was a charity around here and a customer of mine for years. I call projectblank projecthope at times.

The official code name is projectblank...the unofficial is projecthope.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Got it :)

I have come across that community posts .

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

February-March will be exciting, it's time to get on the train or the train will leave you behind.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Great news, @taskmaster4450le.

I'm so excited about those projects! LEO team rocks!

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yes they do.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Hi there. @taskmaster4450le Thank you so much for the news. I'm landing again. I will really appreciate if you could guide me about the following question: How do I do to work with the development team?

Who should I talk to?

Basically I am into web development, Reactjs, Gatsby, among others and I would really like to be part of the dev team. I believe crypto is the future so now besides of start publishing on my blog again and bring people in, I want to develop.

Thanks in advance.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

You will want to speak to Khal. If you are on Discord it is @khal#9256.

You can DM him I believe out of the Leofinance discord group.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I will. Thank you so much. Anytime you need a website just let me know, also a translation to spanish.

Have a great day!

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

ProjectBlank
This is the game changer. It looks like there are a few people who are excited about it. In fact many have inquired about when it will be out. This post is a nice way of saying "stop f*cking asking" (my words, not Khal's).

This is the one I'm easily most excited about. In time it might even surpass Splinterlands as the app with the most transactions on the Hive blockchain. Not many people can write long blogs well but everyone can s**tpost, meme, or write whatever is on their mind at the time.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

In time it might even surpass Splinterlands as the app with the most transactions on the Hive blockchain.

My guess is this happens within the first month or two.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

LeoInfra sounds like a gamechanger. That is out biggest issue IMO; way to hard to sign up with way to much commitment for someone who just wants to have a look around.

Onboarding has been an issue for such a long time, it is good to see things being done to alleviate that mess.

You are right, it will make all the other aspects of the platform that much better.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Yeah, another big thing that happens to LeoFinance, creating a seamless account creation experience for all of web 2.0 solutions.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

So most likely we gonna see projectplank at the end of the month and leofi in March! I am so excited

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

And maybe projectflank at the end of April?

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

The end of February.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Gotcha so LeoFi will be an all-purpose platform with things like Eth defi like Compound/Aave and Maker Dao using Hive-engine?

That is the plan except for using Hive-Engine. At some point, when the new decentralized architecture goes into place, it will move onto its own sidechain. It will operate similar to H-E but be Leo's.

There will be three exchanges running for Leo by the end of the year.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Ah gotcha.
If it using it own sidechain then a scheme to DPOS Bitcoin wrapped tokens can be done to make "Wrapped token" more trustless

It could although I think there might be other plans in the works.

We will have to see what this new system looks like. There is a lot of interest in other chains and cross chain integration.

How it all ties together, I have no idea at this point but it will be fun to watch.

There will be a lot of cool stuff on Leo by the end of the year.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Exciting times indeed! Been stacking my lbi and trying to increase my LEO stake, these unofficial news are going to be a great incentive to pump up my efforts!

Good. Glad this could motivate you to better your position. It is all starting to fall into place.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

for every important announcement or not made, a hype is added to the already existing hype.

We await patient or non-patient 😁😁😁

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I am non-patiently being patient awaiting the release of projectblank.

Three weeks is too damn long in my opinion. I started waiting on this back in August.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

I agree with you but there is no doubt that the wait, although for technical reasons, is an excellent ally as long as it is not actually too long, but this is not the case.
Leofinance is really a young project and together with Hive they will give us many wonderful satisfactions.

For this I thank the team that always works hard behind the stage in advance

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

It is true. Leofinance is not even two years old yet, and there was the Justin Sun hiccup in between.

We are really getting close to things moving in an exponential manner. This is going to be big.

The post I wrote the other day about the Leo ecosystem being $250 million was being conservative.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Awesome, Glad I started learning and paying more attention to LeoFinance instead wondering around other part of HIVE.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

It is time well spent. This ecosystem is going to make people very happy over the next couple years.

Some incredible stuff coming.

The White Paper alone is near 100K words. A lot in the past that is our foundation and a ton more ideas that will be built out in the future.
