It's been a hectic few weeks and a lot has been happening on the steem ecosystem with the deployment of steem-engine leading the charge to diversify and broaden the scope of what this blockchain can do.
It all started with a Palnet airdrop
If you have been paying attention and are an active contributor to the community you may have found that you have recieved several more airdrops of different tokens created on steem-engine by different apps and dev teams.
What do you do with these token? In steem-engine you will see the option to stake your tokens. Stake them and that gives you enough juice (think resource credits) to post from the various platforms.
This post is a combined introduce myself and a little #marketfriday chat about these new tokens. Written in plain english for those of you that haven't figured out what this all means.
Steem-engine is a market for token exchange where every token is paired with the steem token and nothing else. No Bitcoin, no Fiat and none of the 3,000 + other altcoins.
More tokens appear as if by magic
This makes a lot of sense when you think about it. We need to stop thinking about comparing the steem token to fiat or other alt coins and instead think about how we can leverage steem via these other tokens. Some of these tokens may superceed steem in some respects but they are all tied to steem so whatever success they have will drag steem up as well.
As you can see I am posting this from steemleo.com which is much more than just another gateway to the steem blockchain. It is a stand alone app in it's own right serving a specific community or tribe. It's very simple to sign in.
It's just like signing into steemit or busy or steemspeak etc. If you use the keychain extension it's even simpler.
Welcome to steemleo
What a pleasant thing to see. A completely new and empty blog. Let's fill it up with really engaging and informative content and share it all over the social networks.
So why would you bother using steemleo? The answer is quite simple. Steemleo focusses on specific content that deals with finance, trading cryptocurrencies and market making. Not photos of cats etc Sorry cat lovers.
As a content creator it can be very difficult to find your audience on a general blogging website. This is why we need specific websites like steemleo? Very simple.
Steemleo will be the go to website for all of your cryptocurrency needs. What's going up what's going down and whatever else is going on in the space.
Steemleo fills a niche which has been missing for many steemians and now they can find the kind of content they want without having to scape through 1,000's of the general blog posts on the other platforms. It's a tribe of like minded people who share the same interests.

It is great to finally have a place where we can share our ideas about crypto and economics in the real world with people that have more than just an 'get rich quick' interest in the subject.
