What is UNUS SED LEO

UNUS SED LEO (LEO) is the token of iFinex, the company that owns the Bitfinex crypto exchange. The name is Latin for “one, but a lion”, a line from one of Aesop’s fables that serves as the company’s motto. iFinex sold the tokens in a private round in May 2019, raising about one billion dollars, and trading opened on Bitfinex on May 20. The company needed the money after its payment processor, Crypto Capital, lost access to Bitfinex funds.

LEO has no blockchain of its own: it was issued as an ERC-20 token on Ethereum and as a token on EOS, the network renamed Vaulta in 2025. Under the whitepaper rules, iFinex regularly buys LEO on the market for an amount equal to at least 27% of the previous month’s consolidated revenue and burns the tokens it buys. The company also pledged to use funds recovered from Crypto Capital, and at least 80% of net funds recovered from the 2016 Bitfinex hack, for buybacks. Buyback data is published at leo.bitfinex.com.

LEO holders get discounts on Bitfinex: on trading fees, on crypto deposit and withdrawal fees, and on fees in the lending service. The size of the discount depends on how many tokens sit in the account. Unlike BNB, LEO has no network or app ecosystem of its own, so demand rests on Bitfinex services and on a buyback program that the company itself defines.

What it’s used for

  • trading fee discounts on Bitfinex
  • discounts on deposits, withdrawals and lending on Bitfinex

Risks

  • complete dependence on iFinex and Bitfinex: trouble at the exchange or changed discount terms would hit the token
  • the company sets the buyback rules and also reports its own revenue and burn figures
  • the issuer’s regulatory history: in 2021 Bitfinex and Tether paid a penalty to settle a New York Attorney General case over hidden Crypto Capital losses and claims about Tether’s reserves
