Introducing a New LEO Token Sink & Writing Contest | The Leo Weekly Writing Contest For Investment Content
It is no secret that we have a heavy focus on rewarding our content creators who contribute high quality content to the #steemleo community. These contests are a great way to both reward these awesome content creators as well as burn LEO to decrease the supply & positvely influence the economy.
Steemleo is a platform for investors to talk about their passion. Investing is a very broad topic and we all come from different walks of life.
It’s always fun to scroll through the feed and randomly discover a great piece of content, but sometimes an organized competition can provide an opportunity to view a singular topic through the perspective of a variety of people from different backgrounds.
We are announcing The Weekly Leo Writing Contest as a means to encouraging more high-quality, investing-related content on the Steemleo platform as well as a way to connect with your fellow Steemians and bond over a single topic.
The contest details are as follows. If you have any other questions, drop a comment below or hop in our discord and we’ll answer them as soon as possible. Happy writing 🔥

FAQ:
Why is there an entry fee? —> the entry fee of 10 LEO is in place for a few different reasons. The two main reasons are:
- We will burn those LEO tokens at the end of the contest
- Helps us sort through the submissions and have higher quality content on the platform
*LEO Power (LP) = staked LEO distributed to your Steem account.
*How are the winners chosen? --> we curate the content subjectively and the 3 posts we find to be the best will be chosen for the top 3 slots.
*What are SBI Shares = SBI stands for Steem Basic Income and they provide a means for all Steemians to earn regular STEEM upvotes on their content. Learn more: @steembasicincome

Looks like I do not own enough LEO to enter the contest, unfortunately. Maybe in the future I will! I got excited, as I love to write and writing quality work is something I'm interested in. I also think of investing in many different ways, from actual capital, to investing in one's self. Health, mental well-being, and relationships can sometimes be just as important investments as financial! :)
Looking forward to see what the future holds in this community! I think I'm going to learn quite a bit being here.
Hey there! Would love to read what you’ve got. The 10 LEO entry fee (about 1 STEEM at current price) is set to encourage demand for the LEO token. Then send it to us so we can organize the posts and then we’re burning 100% of the entry fees which lowers the total token supply which benefits the whole community.
Looking forward to seeing some cool content from you, either through these contests or on the platform as well (writing a great piece of imvesting content will usually make quite about more than 10 LEO too) :)
Oh! I for some reason was thinking it was 10 steem. Lol. Seems I do have enough. I will probably enter then. :)

This is an awesome contest. I want to thank the @Steem.leo team for brainstorming this. This is an awesome way to grow #leo and #steem.
Very nice initiative. I will try to participate in this contest. Lets make leo great.
Dear @steem.leo
I absolutely love idea behind your initiative. Burning tokens is definetly very interesting way of increasing token value.
Entry fee is also something unique and very refreshing. Keep up with great work guys.
Yours

Is that limited to English?
and the
LP is permanent delegation?
I applied, good lucknto everyone!
This is a great initiative (I'm joining), gathering everyone's opinions on the subject will help the community develop a consensus on what posts deserve the #steemleo tag. Additionally, who can argue with burning the entry fees?
Loved your entry @financialadvice
