This year's HiveFest was awesome. While we couldn't meet in person, this is definitely an interesting way to meetup and beats any sort of Discord call we all could've jumped into. I presented LeoFinance on Day 2 of HiveFest and talked about a few of the key pieces of our project.
The talk starts out a bit slow in my opinion, but picks up around the 4 or 5 minute mark as I settled in and worked out a few technical issues I was having. Overall, I think it went pretty smooth and I felt the finish was strong. Our 2021 roadmap is going to be a lot of fun to deliver on.

I had a lot of fun with this talk (again, especially toward the middle-end). Based on the audience reactions, I think our expansion into DeFi, the creation of Lite accounts and the 2021 roadmap are what garnered the most hype and attention.
As we get closer to the end of 2020, we'll release a massive post summing up our year and follow it up with the in-depth version of our 2021 roadmap which was briefly previewed in this keynote.
Enjoy and shoutout to @roelandp for putting together an amazing virtual event!
Let me know in the comments what your favorite part of the keynote was and if you have any questions about it or our project in general.
I wanted to do a Q&A at the end, but we ran out of time so here's what I want to do: leave a comment below with a question that you could've asked live but didn't get the chance to. I'll collect my favorite ones from the comments and then record a follow-up Q&A for a post.
