Sites that pay content creators is another way that people can make money from their work and earn an income while they are looking for work. I have been trying to find more freelance work while crypto is still in this early stage to earn more income and cannot find any good freelance sites. A lot of them involve you spending your time pitching for jobs that you might not get and you can spend your day trying to get work instead of actually working. However on sites like Leo I can put the work in and get paid as I go.
The Value Of Crypto
The only problem right now is that the value of a lot of crypto dapps isn't high enough to support a lot of content creators. This can change at any second and with no ceiling to the price of a coin you could be making a lot of money on sites like this if the coin takes off. But right now it is too hard to make a living just posting. This is why the value of the coin is very important for dapps like Leo as it determines how well content creators can do on these sites and thus you will have a lot more users when the value of the coin is higher. Everyone wants to be paid for their work but if they can make more blogging elsewhere than it will be hard to keep a lot of users.
I do hope to see a bull run soon and the value of these coins pick up to a stable level where we can start to pay a lot of users to create high quality work on blocckhain sites and thus give work to a lot of people around the world who could use it, especially the way things are now.
The Problems Of Non-Crypto Freelance
Non-crypto freelance is really difficult to get off the ground and you spend a lot of time looking for jobs and applying for jobs. This leads to you spending your time inefficiently as you are constantly chasing leads hoping it will ban into something that might never come. I'm not saying don't try it but I want to see more sites like Leo where anyone can log in and work as much as they want and take breaks when they want to.
Freedom To Work
It is not about getting rich overnight but having the freedom to work when you want and where you want and earn when you need to. We are getting close to those days I think but until the value if there we will need to keep pushing to make it to that level.
I can go onto Leo anytime of the day or night and write a blog on my time that can be short or long. I can even schedule it to get posted at a later date. This gives me the freedom to work jobs outside of crypto or on other crypto ventures at my own pace. And the best part is that the site is always there so I can go back to it whenever I need to.
The Future Of Crypto Dapps
Hopefully in the future there will be enough money in these sites or enough of them that people can make a decent income with their work. If you are an artist you already can make a lot of moeny with NFTs and we are ways for artists to make a living. The problem with a lot of the arts is people either make it rich or barely get by and dapps like Leo can be a nice middle ground to make a buck and keep working on what the artist wants to work on instead of what they have to.
Works As Additional Income
The best part is that Leo and other sites only add to your income and work so you can keep doing what your are doing and still make money on the side. There is no need to quit your job you can just access your phone on your lunch break and make that extra income on the side.
If anyone knows of any non-crypto sites for me to try please let me know in the comments

Damn straight income diversification is where it is at and crypto is PERFECT for that. I have found freelance work for some of my #hive friends I have never met in person. My graphic designer gets paid in crypto.
A decentralized etsy or similar platform would be a big hit, seeing as so many new freelancers will be on board with crypto. I just love hive for that as well because it can be a practice run, archive and networking tool all in 1.
That dapp needs to be coded on #hive!
Check these sites out. I haven't tried them yet as I am still employed.

I can only hope that hive will increase a lot in value so we can make decent living creating content.
