Very well said. Hive and Leo have given this community a way to participate in the DeFi world without having to go anywhere. It really is as simple as browsing the trending page and reading some articles written by people you already know, then taking a few simple steps to get started. This community can almost hold your hand the entire way.
The reason I got involved with CUB a year ago was the trust factor I had in Khal and the LeoFinance team. As you say, with all the scams and rugpulls out there, knowing the team and having confidence they were looking out for their community allowed me to "gamble" on defi and stick a toe in.
Since then, like you, I've just been collecting my CUB and now PolyCUB. While none of it has made me rich, I certainly have more than I started with, plus a lot of future potential, PLUS a ton of knowledge I never would have gotten anywhere else.
If you haven't taken the plunge into defi yet, there's no better place than with CUB. Lots of people around to answer questions and, while they may or may not work, you at least don't have to worry about getting scammed.
In the long run, as with most things, I think the early adopters are going to make out very well. It's still very early in the construction of the LeoFinance web. No better time than now to get involved.
