You know how crypto and Hive often seems rather quiet in the summertime (well the Northern Hemisphere), well that is often the same with Hive on the weekend.

To help combat this and create some engagement possibilities  last year the folks at INLEO created the idea of having weekend threading mini contests.

### Weekend threading contests are back on INLEO.

Well this weekend saw these mini contests return to threads and I joined them all.

There is still time to join in.

### Win $LEO and HBD

Yes that is right, prizes of 50 LEO and HBD are up for grabs in each mini contest.

In addition to winning those prizes, you could be curated by other lions as well as leo.voter.

The best bit is that you may well end up talking to someone you have not engaged with before!

In my opinion unless you are a whale or been here for 5/6 or 7 years then Engaging on Hive is the way to go, and the way to get noticed too!

Being active, did I say it helps you stay active and gets you on the road to qualifying for those LeoAds and Evergreen rewards ?

#### What do the mini contests consist of?
First of all, and no shocks really, you make a thread on the INLEO threads platform answering the topic in one of the mini contests.

#### Where do we find them?

I will link them below, but lookout for a community post from your favourite community.

#### When do they run
So they are open as soon as the community posts them and close Sunday night at midnight. 

We shall explore them all here (well briefly)


### Olio di Balena-Inleo Weekend Threading Contest

Oh yes we are and of course not being biased but this is my favourite because Super Eli @coquicoin-leo does it all for our Silver Bloggers community.

The topic was simply [Our View...](https://inleo.io/@silverlions.leo/weekend-threading-mini-contest-silver-bloggers-14-we-are-back)
