We've had a crazy 5-6 weeks of development surrounding CUB, LeoFinance and LeoBridge.
There is a disconnect that has been brought up in Discord and Telegram over that period of time related to development and communication.
LeoFinance has always been a project that put communication at the top of the stack in terms of importance but over the past several weeks, we've been developing a number of complex projects (LeoBridge, Kingdoms, Leo UI update, PBlank, etc.) and comms have taken a bit of a backseat.
Needless to say, comms have taken a bit of a back seat since the launch of CUB but the development pace has never been more aggressive for LeoFinance and Cub. We've never had so many irons in the fire and exciting things on the verge of launching.
LeoBridge is now in production as we continually test it with a low swap cap. As the bridge matures, we'll continually raise the swap cap and once we feel the cap is high enough and the bridge TXs are working smoothly (around $20k+ swap cap), we'll begin our press release runs with outlets like Cointelegraph and other major crypto news sources.
Kingdoms will also bring about a major change to the entire Leo/Cub economy. Many have talked and speculated about Kingdoms and some think that Kingdoms are the same thing as PCS V2. This is definitely not the case and the blame is on us for the lack of communication as we developed Kingdoms.
The Kingdoms contracts work similarly to Autofarm. They compound the base asset (i.e. BNB-BUSD if that's what you're pooling) and on top of that, they pay out the normal CUB harvestable rewards. These contracts are composable which means they leverage the power of pooling assets across multiple platforms simultaneously to stack APR for the most optimal return. We're working on an updated page for the Cub docs along with a post to explain how Kingdoms work.
LeoFinance UI Update
LeoFinance has undergone some major UI updates lately. It took a backseat during Project Blank, Cub and LeoBridge developments but with our expanded team of devs and our latest addition: an executive VA to take some of the administrative burdens off my plate, we're now back in action making updates to all of our major projects.
LeoFinance.io is our flagship app. It's important that we stay up to date, fix any and all bugs and continually roll out new features. Over the coming weeks and months, you'll start to see a lot of exciting UI updates again. We're excited to get back to the old pace of regular updates for our main app.
In This Update:
- Notifications
- Mobile Post Feed Layout Update
- Device Layout Optimizations
- Footer Updates
- Navbar Styling and App Link Update
- Major bug fixes including Image Uploading issues
- ....
We'll let you get out there and explore the updates. Many of them are performance enhancements and bug fixes. We're setting the stage for a number of major updates and feature rollouts to make LeoFinance.io the best platform for Crypto & Finance News, Community and Discussion.
What's Next?
As mentioned in the beginning of this update, we've been working hard behind the scenes on all of these major projects: Cub, Kingdoms, LeoBridge, LeoFinance UI, Project Blank and more.
Our pace of development has never been more aggressive and fast-moving. This has come at the expense of communication in general, but I'm hoping that our expanded team will help alleviate some burdens across the board - especially menial, administrative stuff that was sucking up a lot of time - and allow us to have the best of both worlds again:
Fast-paced development on LeoFinance and Cub that has never been seen before along with rapid and extensive communication like we had up until a few months back when the project expanded faster than the team could.
All of our remaining Kingdoms contracts and strategy contracts were deployed today. This leaves two main things before the Kingdoms update can go live:
- CertiK audit completed
- Merge development UI into production to open Kingdoms
While we could launch Kingdoms without the audit being completed (or at least with the audit completed prior to being finally published), we'd rather wait and go for maximum security for our community.
There have been some major issues on other DeFi platforms on BSC. Hacks, migration issues, etc. with platforms like Venus and others. We will always develop fast-paced but still prioritize security over releasing products that aren't ready for prime time.
We'll continue to release updates in real-time via this account on Hive and the Cub telegram and LeoFinance Discord. Stay tuned for a new era of LeoFinance and Cub!!

As a person who mostly acceses Leofinance using my phone, the UI is now sleek 💪
I also love the notifications bell, thanks for the great work on Leofinance as most people thought you had abandoned this project and concentrated on Cubdefi.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
That's great to hear, might try again in a bit. Is there any way to log in to leofinance with the keychain app?
I would think that it just works, although I haven't tried it. Have you tried it and had problems?

Thanks for the work you put into everything, I see the new UI but it seems there are a few issues. I'm going to get back with a complete evaluation after testing it for a day.
About the rest, I'm looking forward to it! Thanks guys, we really appreciate it!

Great, look forward to hearing what issues you are seeing. One issue was that the theme setting wasn't being honored; that should be resolved if you reload.

I have always appreciated the transparency from your team. I believe in the projects and look forward to seeing them roll out. Really excited
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I always thrilled about cryptocurrencies and Leo finance related post. I didn't know about anything before. Now I'm slowly learning about it.
All of this is exciting. Now I know I invested in the right place CubDefi. Thank you for the amazing work. I look forward to the marketing campaign
This is very good news that I have read @leofinance and @khaleelkazi. Everything is very interesting and I am attentive to the updates to be able to experience even more in depth the operation of CUBFINANCE.
Leofinance.io is the flagship platform of the project, it was the beginning of this community and as such I think most of us who are here making life and creating content in the financial environment did it the same way. Based on this, the mother curatorship by LeoFinance with @leo.voter should not be forgotten. I say this because I have seen a neglect in the curations by this central project of LEO.
But generally, all these projects excite me and motivate me to continue. On the other hand, I officially offer myself for content curation if you need help with content, I'm committed to the project and would love to do a good job in rewarding all LeoFinance authors who create truly quality content.
Great job keep up the good work team.

Thanks for getting this update out @leofinance. Very glad to hear you are getting some help in place, so we can look forward to a resumption of the historic good communication which has been sorely missed of late. Also, great to see some attention being paid to the UI, as it has definitely needed some attention.
On this ...
... I just want to reinforce the vital importance of it, as I think it is commonly underestimated as to what value it holds. From my experience in life, voids in communication do not remain unfilled. Further they are seldom (unfortunately) filled (as they do get filled, in one way or another) in a positive way.
Perhaps a little "rusty," I find one key bit of info (which has repeatedly been inquired about in Discord) still missing from this post. The WLEO geyser payouts were supposed to come out on the 1st of each month, beginning in April. That did not happen. With no real explanation I ever saw as to why. Here in May? Even more time has gone by ... We are still waiting, again with no explanation I have seen anywhere ...
Please update us on the status of those at your earliest opportunity. Thank you!
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Good job guys, ... You'll get it sorted out.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Love the update. Notifications were the only reason I continued to use PeakD for certain things, so this will certainly mean more pageviews on the leofinance.io domain from me.
Also cheers for addressing the disconnect between development and communication. Obviously you guys can't be expected to do everything at once and expanding the team with a VA for admin-based tasks sounds like a good start.
Now, let's see what Kingdoms brings for Cub Finance! :)
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Outstanding update! I would highly recommend trying to get one of these out at least once a week, even if you have nothing new to report. Unfortunately, silence can speak louder than words sometimes so we need words to fill the void. :-) No promises need to be made. Just updates.
As we often talk about in @LeoMarketTalk, the hours spent here can feel like weeks when we're here every day so it's very nice when you give us something to talk about.
The pace of development has been nothing short of spectacular and I can't wait to see what Kingdoms looks like as well as the rest of the projects coming down the pike. Keep building smart before fast. Your focus on quality rather than speed is one of the main reasons I'm here and a huge part of why I plan on being here for a long time.
Thank you for the update!!!

I was so surprised seeing the notification bell. The joy that came to my heart is almost as if someone dashed me 1 btc. 😅😂

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I like the update mostly, and finally notifications also, really good.
But one thing looks really not good to me. The spacing on the voting bar on desktop browsers.
Would it be possible to move these back to the left side and make the gaps smaller between them, it's not very intuitive right now I think, and the previous version was much better. Or is it only me?
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Yes, some other people have voiced their concern about that as well. It'll get back closer to how it was in the next update.

HTTP is in use instead of HTTPS and no protocol redirection is in place. Be careful and do not enter sensitive information in that website as your data won't be encrypted.
It's also a good habit to always hover links before clicking them in order to see the actual link in the bottom-left corner of your browser.
This auto-reply is throttled 1/20 to reduce spam but if it still bothers you reply "OFF HTTP". Or reply REVIEW for manual review and whitelisting.
You guys are doing a really great Job, love the addition of notification and the UI seems smoother.

Never. ProjectBlank is like a unicorn, Santa Clause or the Easter Bunny. It was never there to begin with and if you saw it, you were on some major drugs.

It's good see you've got the priorities right. We don't need another one of those wLEO events. Thank you for keeping security at 1st without trying to rush. This is great for the long term reputation of the LEO & CUB.
As for communication...... I'd say a short weekly post on what's been going will be enough :)

I love lion king
Loving the new UI!
Communication takes lots of energy and it allows us to get feedback from the community.
Most important thing is to think long term and being flexible with executions.

Ah yea this update and sleek interface is "big wow" and "much awesome"
Looks better and better each update. Really looking forward to CUB kingdoms.
Can't skimp on security! Great to see the notification bell, I'm seeing complete posts when I click it though is that supposed to happen?
Yes, if I'm understanding you correctly, when you click through it should go to the post or comment, depending on. the type of notification.
If this still seems odd, please post some screen shots, thank you.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Indeed it does, but when I just click the bell to show notifications I see small notifications for comments but also complete posts without clicking through..
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Please send screen shot and URL, thanks.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Ok, it's hard to capture it since the screen is clogged, that's kind of the problem ;-)
Since I'm mentioned in the post the WHOLE post shows in my notification feed instead of just a snippet. I think it would be better to make it a smaller notification to have an overview you can then select from..
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Got it, I now understand what you're referring to. Yes, we will be cutting down the amount of content displayed in notifications. Thanks for the feedback.

It is good to know that they are always developing.
There's only one thing I didn't like. But this is a personal opinion and not necessarily a criticism.
The buttons (icons) for voting, sharing were too far apart. For large screens, this offers more highlights
And thank you for always developing here.

This post is late but, no doubt, gives utmost satisfaction for the LeoFinance users.
Project Blank is still the most awaited project and like many other Hive/Leofinance users I am also disappointed it not being launched yet, but, I am sure, it'll be worth the wait.
What is satisfactory about LeoFinance's projects; they start from where others reach after a lot of time and struggles.

Great read and a very much needed update !!
Thanks for keeping us updated and for clearing up the Kingdom concept, personally I thought it was going to be like the new Pancake auto pool, this is way better.
This kind of communication is what really gives value to this community and what makes me trust in the CUB project, it really shows you guys are not only working hard, but also taking all the possible measures to avoid any kind of trouble down the road.
