Second layer tokens are the rave of the moment and of the lot, Leo and DEC are leading the pack. For Leo Holders, the rise has been meteoric and it all stemmed from the liquidity pool on Uniswap. I don't think anybody expected it to be such a huge success, and alas, here we are, with Leo trading for almost 2 hive.

Leo's success didn't go unnoticed and other than Splinterlands, I suspect @neoxian, @palnet and people on STEM are looking on and thinking of a perfect time to jump into the pool. Getting listed and trading on Uniswap dex is not a requisite for a bull run but if the performance of Leo and recently, Splinterlands is anything to go by, it will be difficult to tell people differently.

In less than 48 hours after Splinterlands announced the [liquidity pool thing on Uniswap](https://peakd.com/hive-167922/@belemo/dec-joins-the-uniswap-liquidity-party), DEC is already doing some impressive numbers with $12k 24 hour trading and a nice 24% pump to get it to around 0.00463hive. Hey, I know this is wishful thinking but if this baby can get to 0.1hive, that will be really awesome, you know?

Meanwhile, I've noticed that there's been some misunderstandings on Twitter about the success of these Hive-engine tokens. The whole essence of creating Hive engine and having these tokens was for them to all thrive in their own right. 

These tokens aren't trying to "compete with hive". First of all, they can't compete with Hive when they all fundamentally depend on Hive and secondly, they actually complement hive, that is, they add value to your hive token in the long run. Think about it from this angle, when say Leo or DEC does so well and people want to get their hands on it, they can either go through Eth or will come through hive-engine, thus buying up more hive, and driving the price up. It is actually a win-win.

Anyway, I'll probably buy a few thousand DEC tokens but my primary means of earning will still be through battles because I'm good at it. I'm going to dip into the rental market again to see which good deals I can squeeze out. Top of the list is a level 2 or 3 Chain Golem to add to my squad.

[Link to gig](https://www.fiverr.com/belemo/copywriting-and-content-creation-for-websites-and-blogs?utm_campaign=gigs_show&utm_medium=shared&utm_source=copy_link&utm_term=zzlo2p)

This is the first gig I created on Fiverr and I basically talk about how I write quality articles about cryptocurrency and blockchain. So, if you're looking for a writer on your Hive blog or maybe you have private blog outside the platform, I can create quality articles for you. 

All I need is a topic, tone of the post and any extra information you'd like me to add. If you choose to patronise me, I assure you that all our conversations will be kept private.

I have a keen interest in football and even spent three years in the blogging wilderness writing posts on soccermonger.blogspot.com. The few readers I garnered loved my posts, even though they didn't always agree with my views. In recent times, I have been writing on my [personal blog](https://arsenalman.dblog.org/), where I share my views about Arsenal. 

I can vary the tone of my posts to suit any narrative a customer chooses to pick, so irrespective of the club or approach, I can handle it. Just like the previous gig, every conversation we have will be kept private.
