As most seasoned speculators know, trading is a great deal like poker in many ways. Both are a combination of strategy, psychology, and—at times—luck. Additionally; each are capital-intensive. How about playing poker for free and winning a little cryptocurrency in the process?
The LEOPALOOZA Poker Tournament should not be considered an endorsement by the @leofinance commmunity of @lucksacks.com although I personally advocate for the Lucksacks site.
Next month I will be sponsoring a Poker Tournament on behalf of LEO FINANCE. There will be 100 $HIVE cryptocurrency (the native coin of the HIVE Blockchain Network) in prizes. There is no cost to enter. The venue will be the LUCKSACKS.COM™ Poker Site. I have provided some information concerning the tournament at the end of this post.
Lucksacks™ has been in existence since 2017 and exists totally due to donations. I have played there for about the same amount of time. More information can be found about them on their blog, @lucksacks.com.
Of course; if you enter the Leopalooza Poker Tournament and are one of the winners, you will be in need of a HIVE Blockchain account in which to receive your winnings. Developers have made it much easier to open a free account and LEO Finance is not any different! Actually they have revised an idea that has been discussed for some time now.
Did you know that you can sign up for a HIVE account using your Ethereum account address in about 30-seconds? Wild, right? Sure. If you have METAMASK it is easy-peasy. Here is a great short 3-minute or so video by @khaleelkazi (Khal) on how it works.
I do not know of an easier way to get a HIVE account. There are a number of other videos that Khal has made that go into more depth. Part of this new feature also allows you to collect your content rewards in either LEO Tokens or Ethereum coin!
Now here is the kicker—NO GAS FEES in this sign up process, you heard me right! You can save them GWEI for something else! My LEO Wallet is currently connected to my Metamask wallet. I would not promote this sign-up process if I had not checked it out myself.
You will also receive 10 $HIVE delegation from Leo Finance™ to get you started. Transactions (be they voting on posts, commenting, or authoring posts) are fee-less on the HIVE Blockchain Network. Yet; those transactions require Resource Credits (RCs) which are allocated to your account based upon your HIVE Power (HP) aka HIVE stake. Knowing this, LEO Finance stakes some HIVE for you initially.
Now if you do not have an Ethereum account or METAMASK Wallet it is still easy to get a free HIVE account. Just mosey on over to HiveOnBoard.com and they will get you set-up!
LEO Finance is, as its name indicates, focused on financial topics.
Once you have your HIVE Account there are a great many HIVE communities and blogs to check out. The topics range from food recipes to gaming and everything in-between. There are also online games to play.
LEO Finance is, as its name indicates, focused on financial topics. You might say that LEO Finance is the FORBES® online magazine of the HIVE Blockchain Network.
In addition to this finance-centric blogging platform, LEO Finance offers a number of other applications.
LeoDex is an exchange where one can trade HIVE tokens to include $LEO. Last I checked, the fee for deposits and withdrawals of $HIVE was 0.25% There is a cool feature where you can check the $HIVE liquidity with just a click!
Leopedia is an educational site where everyone can learn about all things crypto and blockchain. It hosts excellent tutorials.
HIVEStats is an online application where you can easily check out the status of your HIVE account.
LEO Finance™ is heading places. Hope you come along for the ride!
