Big News : Leo token economics changes from the last AMA .

in LeoFinance7 months ago

Introduction

AMA Surprise News

  • I am reporting on a significant development concerning the LEO tokenomics. The LEO token, which has historically funded author and curation rewards through inflation, is transitioning to a zero-inflation and potentially deflationary model. This strategic shift means that rewards will no longer be generated from newly minted LEO tokens. Instead, revenue generated by the INLEO platform, particularly the highly successful LeoDex app, will be utilized to buy back LEO tokens directly from the open market. These acquired tokens will then autonomously populate the SIRP, from which author and curation rewards will subsequently be distributed. This pivotal change, originally slated for the mid-2030s, is being fast-tracked due to the impressive performance and revenue generation of LeoDex.

Body

SIRP equals System Income Rewards Pool.

  • A future date change in the Leo token economics has been moved to a present date change.
  • Wen has become Soon.
  • SIRP, which means System Income Reward Pool was always been in the future plans for the Leofinance Social Media Site rewards Pool Future.

Whats the rewards pool again?

  • The rewards pool is where all post, comment and thread rewards come from.
  • This has been normally supplied by printing new tokens everyday and adding them to the rewards pool.
  • Printing tokens, like printing fiat is called Token Inflation.
  • But the Founder of Inleo, @khaleelkazi has always planned to do away with token printing, like Bitcoin slowly does away with token printing.

Will there still be post, comment and thread rewards?

  • Yes.

What is the replacement for Token Printing?

  • His replacement for the token printing as a source of tokens in the reward pool is token buybacks from the open market, using income generated by the project.

How is this possible?

  • Now that the projects cryptocurrency exchange called Leodex is generating significant profits @khaleelkazi has decided to make the once future change from a rewards pool fueled by inflation to a rewards pool fueld by income an current or present time change.
  • This a WEN become SOON.
  • :)
  • @khaleelkazi and TEAM made the decision to accelerate the implementation of the System Income Rewards Pool (SIRP) model.
  • Inleo Rewards go from inflation derived rewards to income derived rewards.
  • Leo goes from an Inflationary Token to a Deflationary Token.*
  • This means the end of the Leo Inflation Reward Pool and the birth of Leo Income reward pool.
  • Welcome to the Future.

Last words or summary

Key Points of the Accelerated SIRP Model

  • Now for review and clarity, this is my understanding from @khaleelkazi AMA explanayttion and his later post, rewritten in my personal style and certainly containing some interpretation.
  • Accelerated SIRP Implementation: The System Income Rewards Pool (SIRP) model for LEO tokenomics is being fast-tracked, significantly moving up its original timeline.
  • End of Inflationary Rewards: The existing LEO inflationary rewards pool, responsible for funding author and curation rewards over the past six years, will cease minting new tokens. This marks the conclusion of LEO's fair launch distribution phase.
  • Revenue-Driven Rewards Pool: The new rewards pool will be fueled by revenue generated from INLEO platforms, with the LeoDex app playing a crucial role in this revenue generation.
  • LEO Buybacks: Revenue will be systematically used to buy back LEO tokens directly from the market.
  • Autonomous SIRP Funding: These bought-back LEO tokens will autonomously fund the SIRP, ensuring a sustainable source of rewards.
  • Consistent Reward Distribution: The method for distributing author and curation rewards will remain unchanged; however, the source of these rewards shifts from newly minted tokens to tokens acquired through buybacks.
  • Deflationary LEO: With the cessation of new LEO minting and the introduction of ongoing buybacks (along with planned adjustments to LEO Bridges), the LEO token is poised to become a deflationary asset.
  • Upcoming Communications: The team will continue to release detailed content, including videos and weekly AMAs every Tuesday at noon EST, to provide comprehensive information on these changes.
  • Promote LeoDex: Community members are encouraged to utilize and share LeoDex.io as a premier platform for trading cross-chain assets.

I can't imagine how postively disruptive this change might be, not just within the hive ecosystem, but the entire web3. This is quite brilliant and shows one thing, for the wise, the time to start stacking up LEO won't be around for too long.

It is a very positive sign that Leodex has enough volume to start these buybacks and completely change the nature of the token. An inflationary token usually deflates in value over time, and this change to a deflationary token in a project with continual innovation and increasing utility should increase the value of the token over time. This change should may be the point in history that changes everything.

It's just like when the team thinks about their project in this way, it's quite good for investors because when they start buying back from the market, the price increases significantly in the future and people are happy again.

I agree.
We know inflationary tokenomics killed hundreds of defi projects, as the token prices collapsed under the selling pressure of ever increasing numbers of toekns. Both Cubfinance and Polycub died the death of inflationary tokenomics.

Yeah you are right.

I'm glad to see the growth of INLEO in 1 year and 6 months of finding it. I can't wait to see how this new change will gradually unfold. Khal has a great team.

You have truly joined during such an exciting time of change and new developments.
I am hoping we will watch the Alt season bull run bring even more excitement.

Thanks for sharing

Welcome

What happens to the staked LEO tokens?

I think the current rewards are in LEO itself.

The staked Leo tokens stay in your wallet, but they direct more rewards from the reward pool to people you give upvotes to. The more you stake, the higher the reward conveyed by your upvote

That is the current rewarding system. I had a conversation on threads regarding this. I think it is probably staying the same way in those regards..

That is my understanding also.

This is really a very beautiful development and I am really optimistic that this is the beginning of more and more update coming

I think we will get some soon, as the team made a decision to make this happen soon.

Interesting, I am curious what this will change to the effective rewards of posts an threads!

The amount of Leo rewards will be the same, but the value of the rewards will be higher if the price of the token rises.

For those who earn dash, they will get more dash if the value of Leo token rises.

Interesting news. looking forward to the change.
But, leo team should still keep looking at alternatives to balance alongside leodex income.

A really important development in the world of LEO and its tokenomics

The idea of moving from an inflation-based system to one that relies on platform revenues and token buybacks from the market is a very smart move.

I agree 100%
This could be a gamechanger with regard to price and notiriety

This is a big update from the LEO team! They’re stopping the printing of new tokens for rewards. Instead, they’ll use real income from LeoDex to buy tokens from the market and use those for paying out rewards. This will make LEO more sustainable and even deflationary.

Impressive changes to the tokenomics! These updates could bring more sustainability and growth to the Leo ecosystem. Looking forward to seeing the impact!

So is this a very significant change for cryptocurrencies?
I mean is this a big deal?

Very big deal, inflationary tokenomics is a death song for cryptos

Are all HIve-Engine tokens inflationary?
Hive is an inflationary token, right?
So the whole ecosystem is based on inflationary tokens?
I suddenly feel like my eyes are suddenly open!
We know that DeFi died because these are incredibly inflationary tokens.
So this is why Leo was a dollar and now is a penny?
So these tokens are valuable at the beginning only?

Yes.
Yes.
Good
One reason
No some are junk from the beginnning.
Leo was worthless, then valuable, then pennies

I think this is a massive change for a Hive-Engine token!
I wonder if anyone if talking about this??

I just finished reading your other article about Hive as a true Lightning Network for Bitcoin, an incredible vision for Hive, that sadly no one else seems to see? Perhaps I am wrong, I hope I am wrong. It strikes me as a viable DHF project to get Hive or HBD listed on Thorchain as a trading pair. The next question would be what HIve wallet can connect to Thorchain and swap HIve for other tokens? That would truly be the killer App.

I am glad you enjoyed it and it increased your understanding.

HEre is the official announcement.
