Issued LEO Tokens

Let’s take a look into token issuance and how it is distributed over time.

Below is a chart that represents the cumulative issued LEO tokens.

This chart is representing the total LEO supply, circulating supply and burned tokens.

A total of 15.5M circulating supply.

Next is the issued LEO tokens from last week. Here is the chart:

Usually this is a weekly chart, but I have added a fed day from the previous week for comparison. As we can see the daily issuance has dropped a lot. From more than 20k per day to around 5k tokens per day. This is because of the implementation of new mechanics for the bounty rewards.

On top of this there has been a major burn event in the last week with a 48k LEO, that has reduced the supply even more.
It remains to be seen how will this play out in the future but if the initial numbers hold, we can even see a deflationary LEO tokenomics.

Let’s see how these tokens were distributed.
Below is the chart of the top 10 LEO earners this week.

The Hive account@wrapped-leo account is on the top here.

Rewards from Bounties

Users who delegate their HP to the Hive account@leo.voter receive daily payouts in the form of LEO tokens at a rate of 16% APR. Also, at time some other bounties are in place.

Hive account@onealfa is on the top here.

Staking LEO

Below is a chart that represents the monthly flow of staked and unstaked LEO tokens. A positive bar going up shows a day where more LEO was staked than unstaked.

April has a 400k LEO staked.

Below is the chart of the top 10 users that staked LEO last week:

Hive account@draupnir is on the top here.

Liquid VS Staked:

Note on the yellow, liquid category above. It includes the LEO in the liquidity pools on ETH and BSC as well. If we remove that, the liquidity will be much lower.

Below is a chart of the LEO tokens allocation.

A 68% share staked.

LeoFinance Users

Below is a chart with the number of unique users that posted from the LeoFinance frontend.

A 6.3k unique accounts have posted from the LeoFinance.

Monthly Active Users Posting and Commenting from LeoFInance [MAU]

Here is the chart for the monthly active users combined from the legacy UI leofinance.io and the new threads UI.

April has 1327 MAUs, a small drop from the 1400 MAUs in the previous month.

Threads MAUs

What about threads only? How are the numbers doing here? Here is the chart.

The first version of threads was launched back in August 2022, and there were around 600 MAUs. This number dropped in the months that followed, but then increased again to a new ATH in February 2023 with the release of the threads UI.
April is having a small drop compared to March.

Posts, Comments and Threads

Here is the chart.

Well, this chart is obviously telling. An aggressive growth in activity since the launch of the new UI in production. A new ATH for number of threads.

In summary last week’s looks like this:

500 posts
24k threads

The number of posts has dropped a bit from 900 to 500 on a weekly basis. This is because the new UI is mostly short form focused, but there are also new features that need to be added for the long form.
But when it comes to threads the numbers have x3, from around 8k to 24k.

We can notice a small uptrend in the last week.
