INTRODUCING PREMIUM IN INLEO
Khal took his time to buttress how cool the premium features are, and that has been making people hop on it, which has increased the inflow of subscribers. No doubt, people love to go and stick to a place or something that's beneficial.
Just like some other web platforms where premium subscriptions are done automatically, the same idea was raised, but Khal didn't have much to say about the automatic subscription; rather, he mentioned a bigger plan and span of subscriptions, such as 6- to 12-month subscription plans.
He went on to point out the gift attached to premium users. Gift in any form—only premium users can see and claim this.
He also said that during the campaign, 30 free premium memberships would be given and that the prize pool wouldn't be only 5k HBD but other interesting prizes like:
100k Hive Power Pool in delegations for a month.
100k Leo Power Pool in delegations for a month.
100k SPS tokens.
30 InLeo Premiums for a month.
1k $POSH tokens.
10k ZING tokens.
10k WOO bucks.
Making a total of $10k worth of prize pool.
Another feature that was also talked about was the bookmark feature. Khal said that the bookmark feature has been improved upon, and instead of saving in your browser cache, it now saves in your hive account. Also, premium subscribers now have folders in their bookmarks, and Khal mentioned that he has a folder called feedback in his bookmark, which helps him keep track of feedback efficiently.
MARKETING AND ONBOARDING
INLEO aims to expand the Hive Zealy marketing campaign by incorporating additional hive communities and projects. Eric is eager to assist Hive in crafting a shared marketing vision to empower hives globally. The focus is on uniting diverse communities and projects under a collective strategy for widespread impact and growth.
Khal also chipped in about the increased number of monthly active users and how Inleo has hit over 1.6k and is almost on pace to hit 1800 active users. A way of onboarding new users to Inleo is by seeking the help of influencers, who would be called the Leo ambassadors. The first stage of the Leo ambassadors would involve two influencers, and the reason for using influencers is that they can easily onboard 1k or 10k users within a short period of time.
A big update for newcomers is that they can create an account without needing keys until they want to claim their keys and make their accounts more secure.
FEEDBACK
Khal pointed out that the INLEO platform, especially the thread, is slow due to issues with Hive nodes. These nodes, set to prevent attacks, cause problems like downtime for popular threads. Khal stressed the need for a private node to communicate directly with the blockchain, bypassing rate limits and improving performance. Once INLEO has its node, users can expect a better experience with no app errors or slow uploads. When asked about influencers, Khal prefers Twitter over Instagram, explaining that Twitter's audience aligns better with INLEO and Hive's goals, whereas Instagram is more focused on pictures.
NEW UPDATES
## Account claiming.. no keys required at first, then you can update, change the keys when you're ready. The keys are changed in such a way that even INLEO doesn't know the new keys
## INLEO scaling from 2 nodes to using 10 different nodes in the Hive nodes... Because INLEO sometimes has bugs relating to scalability, it might consider Leo nodes to subvert rate limits but that will be in the future according to khal
## the frequency of new campaigns depends on the success of previous campaigns.
ANNOUNCEMENT AND INFO
Khal and Eric jokingly suspect Elon Musk has an intern spying on them since whenever they announce INLEO updates, X introduces similar features. They playfully admit to borrowing cool features from X, like the premium option. Khal reveals INLEO's premium subscribers contribute to a Beehive Dash Leo pool with $2500 in it, using 10 HBD subscriptions to buy hives and Leo for permanent liquidity. Khal emphasizes that a larger pool benefits the token. He announces weekly spaces on X: INLEO AMA on Tuesdays, Chain Chatters (with founders from other projects) on Wednesdays, and a new space, "Into the Lion's Den," on Thursdays. The monthly "Town Hall" gathers all hive witnesses. Khal celebrates INLEO's growth with 20% of the hive user base, gifts Cat Premium on air, and clarifies the roles of X influencers.
