Hello, fellow crypto enthusiasts! Welcome to my blog, where I share my insights and opinions on the latest developments in the blockchain space. Today, I want to talk about a topic that is very close to my heart: LeoFinance vs. Web2 Platforms: A Comparison of User Experience and Rewards.
I know we are all familiar with our beloved LeoFinance. Yeah the blockchain-based social media platform for crypto & finance content. As we know it is built on the Hive blockchain, which is a decentralized network of nodes that store and process transactions and data. LeoFinance allows users and creators to engage and share content on the blockchain while earning LEO token rewards. LEO is the native token of LeoFinance, which can be used for governance, curation, tipping, and more.
The conventional social media platforms that we all know and use, like Facebook, Twitter, Medium, etc., are known as Web2 platforms. Because these platforms are centralized, a single organization or a small group of organizations manage them and have the authority to censor, influence, and profit from the content and data of their users. Likes, shares, comments, follows, and other similar incentive mechanisms are also available on Web2 sites, but they are largely immaterial and do not provide users with any meaningful value.
So how do LeoFinance and Web2 platforms compare in terms of user experience and rewards? Let's take a look at some of the key aspects:
LeoFinance's flagship application, LeoFinance.io, enables users to create both short-form and long-form content on the blockchain. On a variety of themes relating to cryptocurrencies and money, users can publish, comment, reply, and create microblogs. Users can also use other programs created by the LeoFinance community, such as LeoDex, a decentralized exchange, LeoPedia, a wiki for crypto information, and LeoInfra, a bridge to other blockchains. Users can also generate content on Web2 platforms, although there are restrictions on the volume, kind, and scope of the content. Users must also follow the guidelines set forth by the platforms, which may limit their ability to express themselves freely and use their imagination.
Finding relevant and high-quality material on the site is made possible by LeoFinance's effective content discovery technology. To discover the material they are looking for, users can browse via various categories, tags, authors, and keywords. Additionally, users have the option of filtering and arranging their feed to suit their tastes. Although Web2 platforms contain content discovery tools like hashtags, trends, and recommendations as well, these tools are frequently impacted by algorithms that favor popular or sponsored material over specialized or unpaid content. Additionally, Web2 platforms can lead to echo chambers and filter bubbles by showing users more of what they already like or agree with.
LeoFinance's gamified system for content curation rewards users for up- and down-voting on the platform's content. Depending on their stake (the number of LEO tokens they own or have delegated) and voting power (the degree of influence they have on the platform), users can earn LEO tokens for curating content. Other tokens that are connected with LeoFinance, such as HIVE (the native token of the Hive blockchain), CUB (the native token of Cub Finance), etc., also allow users to receive curation rewards. Although Web2 platforms contain options for content curation like likes, shares, comments, etc., they do not pay users for doing so. Instead, they take advantage of these capabilities to amass user data and profit from it. On Web2 platforms, content can also be promoted or censored based on centralized curation systems that have their own agendas or interests.
Ownership of the content: LeoFinance allows users complete ownership and control over the information they post on the site. Users won't lose their prizes or reputation if they change or delete their content at any moment. Using Hive APIs, users can also export or import their content to different platforms or programs. Users do not have ownership or control over the material and data they post on Web2 sites. Users must accept the terms and conditions of the platforms in order for them to be given a restricted permission to use their data and content. If users disobey the platforms' terms of service or policies, or if the platforms decide to discontinue or change their services, users may also lose access to or rights to their content and data.
Content rewards: Users are given LEO tokens by LeoFinance as compensation for curating and providing content on the network. In the ecosystems of finance and cryptocurrencies, LEO tokens are valuable and useful. LEO tokens can be used by users to take part in governance, curation, tipping, and other activities. Users can exchange LEO tokens for fiat money or other cryptocurrencies on a variety of exchanges and platforms. Users that curate and create valuable content for Web 2 platforms are not compensated for their efforts. Users can only receive immaterial rewards, such as likes, shares, comments, follows, etc., which have no practical or useful application. If they quit utilizing the platforms or if the platforms change their incentive schemes, users risk losing their rewards or reputation.
As you can see, LeoFinance offers a superior user experience and rewards system compared to Web2 platforms. LeoFinance empowers users and creators to express themselves freely, discover quality content, curate content effectively, own their content and data, and earn real value and utility for their efforts. LeoFinance is not just a social media platform, but a web3 community that builds innovative applications on the blockchain for the crypto and finance space.
