ACE Questing Campaign Chapter 1 Ends | What's Next?

We completed a very thorough audit of the XP earned during the ACE Chapter 1 Questing Campaign. This audit took us quite a long time as we discovered a 100+ account referral that was trying to game the questing system.

After auditing all 375 participants individually, we finalized the results and published them yesterday.

Earlier today, we rolled out the ACE Rewards from the Questing campaign. A huge shoutout and thank you to all Lions who participated—your engagement and dedication made this campaign a success, and we couldn't have done it without you.

This was the first Questing campaign we've ever run, and honestly, we weren't sure what to expect. But seeing the community show up, grinding through quests, and pushing toward those rewards was incredible. The energy and participation levels exceeded our expectations.

What really got us excited was watching lions get active and engaged with the platform in a way we haven't seen before. It genuinely means the world to us when we see our community taking initiative and investing time into something we've built together. Campaigns like this remind us why we're doing this work in the first place—because you all care, and that motivation is contagious.

LeoStrategy's whole team has been working super hard on a multitude of important projects across the board. Namely, getting the Hive / HAF infrastructure built out to make payments on the yield tokens more reliable and consistent. This became our #1 focus in the past few weeks because we know it is the biggest growing pain we've faced—transaction delays and payment inconsistencies have been a real friction point for our users, and we're committed to solving that at the infrastructure level. When you're scaling a platform, these backend systems are everything. They're not flashy, but they're absolutely critical to the user experience.

Along with this foundational work, we've also been working on a project we're calling ACE Arcade. This is super exciting and we genuinely can't wait to roll it out to Open Beta. We believe this will be the best project we've ever built, and it's going to bring a massively important use case to ACE that is highly relevant to the growing space around a few certain key ideas that are starting to dominate conversations in the ecosystem. Think of it as a natural evolution of what ACE can do, built on everything we've learned from build-outs like the ACE Campaign. The team has been heads-down iterating, testing, and refining to make sure we get it right before we open it up to the community.

You'll have to hold your breath a bit longer to hear more about that, but trust us—it's worth the wait.

ACE Presale Chapter 1 Closes

Generated by LeoAI's Rafiki 3.0 Model

Chapter 1 of the ACE Presale has officially come to a close. The $2,500 in prizes have been sent to all the participants and we love seeing so many active and recognizable lions who won these prizes. It's been genuinely rewarding to watch community members step up and compete fairly, knowing that their efforts directly translated into real rewards.

Your top 3 questers grinded Hard to get to where they got. It's amazing to see what consistency can do. These weren't flash-in-the-pan performances—they were sustained, disciplined runs over the entire campaign period. Some of these users had no run-ins with pushing the ethics of the questing system, which honestly makes their achievements even more impressive. For example, Nifty was one of the few users who had little-to-no illgotten XP earned. This is a huge accomplishment because some holes in the questing system genuinely caused issues where you would get XP even if you didn't properly complete a quest. We found edge cases where the system was too lenient, rewarding partial completions and creating unintended loopholes. That's exactly the kind of thing an audit like this is designed to catch.

After reviewing all of this manually—going through 375 participants one by one—we got a good deep dive on what worked and didn't. We identified specific mechanics that need tightening, discovered where user behavior exposed vulnerabilities, and most importantly, learned what genuinely resonates with the community when quests are designed well.

This leads us into what comes next: after doing such a thorough deep dive, we are now ready to make an even better Chapter 2 campaign. The insights we've gathered will let us build tighter quest mechanics, create better safeguards against gaming the system, and design experiences that reward genuine engagement even more effectively. We won't tell you when or where it will happen, but it will happen! Keep your eyes peeled.

Before Chapter 2 starts, we have something even bigger on the way...

What's Next?

Right now, LeoStrategy continues to scale our infrastructure. The team is focused on this but now that the ACE Campaign Chapter 1 has closed, we can spend some more effort on what we believe will be the best innovation of LeoStrategy to-date which is the "ACE Arcade".

This new project will bring a massive utility to the LeoStrategy ecosystem and the ACE token. The ACE Presale is designed to be ongoing. It's not an overnight occurence.

The crypto market is super tough right now and people are hurting. We recognize this. We also recognize that the $LEO Ecosystem is growing dramatically. There is a long way to go to build the $10B vision that the LEO Team has outlined but we believe in this vision and we will actively contribute to it on a daily basis by growing LeoStrategy as a core pillar of the LEO Economy.

ACE Arcade details will follow this blog post and we think you'll be extremely excited by it. It offers a chance for participation and gains to be made -- both of which are super important in a bear market like the one we're facing in crypto right now.
