Hive account@jk6276 thank you for this post. I was waiting for something like this, I even started to write down some of my thoughts.
Nevertheless, here's my opinion.

I would like LBI to drop Leo focus. Degrade it and move towards the things that brought us the most value - which I find Hive.
Leo has been nothing but a disappointment so far and can't really see why should we trust it at all. It's too centralised, I have some personal negative experience and I guess LBI is heavily affected by bHBD stunt as well.
I know LBI price is noted in Leo, the whole project is denominated in Leo, but let's not put too much hope in it. Let's use it when it's reasonable (like Hive account@leo.voter delegation). But I vote to stay as far away from Leofinance as possible. The same goes with LBI-Leo pool. Let's focus on swap.hive instead.

There haven't been a report posted in a while and before making decisions we need to know where do we stand with CUB, bHBH and bHive. (Hive account@silverstackeruk).

We need to find authors to create more content. It's the foundation of our growth.

Let's negotiate your terms.
What if LBI would pay you 2.5% in Leo( or Hive if we switch) and 2.5% in LBI (meaning we would buy LBI for 5% in total).
This would create a bet - the better results the greater your profit would be.
