The launch of LEO 2.0 was announced by the Khalkaz, who doubles as the Co-founder of INLEO, a SocialFi application that allows content creators and users to distribute LEO rewards on content, and LeoDex. This highly anticipated event, accessible via a live stream at

, promises to unveil significant updates to the LEO token ecosystem, potentially reshaping the landscape of Web3 tokenomics.

LeoDex.io is a non-custodial Cross-Chain Decentralized Exchange (DEX) interface that allows users to sign in with their crypto wallets and swap native L1 crypto tokens across different blockchains with no intermediary. Using our WebApp, users can swap hundreds of native L1 & L2 assets on dozens of blockchains with dozens of wallet options. LeoDex is a core product built by the INLEO team and unlocks various new utilities for the token. 100% of affiliate revenue generated from LeoDex buys the LEO token on the open market.

The centerpiece of the LEO 2.0 Launch Event is the transition of the LEO token to a zero-emission model. The new $LEO 2.0 model eliminates inflationary block rewards, which previously paid users on the INLEO social media dapp, and introduces a revenue-sharing system. Key features include:

100% Revenue Distribution: $LEO stakers on Arbitrum (sLEO) will receive daily $USDC rewards from LeoDex affiliate fees, generated through partnerships with THORChain, Maya Protocol, and Chainflip. This move ensures all revenue is transparently allocated on-chain.
Token Burn Mechanism: LeoBridge, the platform’s cross-chain bridging service operational for years across BSC, Polygon, and Hive, will burn a portion of $LEO (1-5% variable fee) with every transaction, reducing the circulating supply.
Capped Supply: The token supply will be capped at approximately 30 million, pending final confirmation during the merge event scheduled seven days after the unveiling.
Buyback Rewards Pool: Premium subscriptions ($10/month) and ad revenue from INLEO will fund a buyback pool, distributing $LEO to creators and curators, replacing inflationary rewards.

This overhaul addresses a critical pain point identified in a 2024 report, which revealed that only 15% of INLEO users fully understood the value proposition of staking $LEO. LeoDex’s flagship app has become the team’s primary focus, necessitating a clearer incentive alignment for its community.

Beyond its environmental focus, the LEO 2.0 Launch Event introduces a volume-based airdrop for LeoDex users, a strategy designed to incentivize participation and reward loyalty.

As the countdown to the LEO 2.0 Launch Event continues, LeoDex is poised to redefine the role of tokens in the DeFi ecosystem. This event will mark a turning point for $LEO and inspire broader industry shifts.

Set your reminders and join the live event on June 18, 2025, at noon EST to witness the unveiling of this transformative chapter in cryptocurrency.
