This is my first attempt to a kind of challenge that Eric (Hive account@anomadsoul) made me in Twitter.

Few days ago I've twitted an old animated Leofinance QRcode that I've tokenized in NFTSHOWROOM, made in my mobile phone.

Eric came up to show me an awesome creation that you might already know, a QRCode made by "nhciao" using the Stable Diffusion and ControlNet.

After his reply, I've promise him to try to have time enough to read a bit about Qrcode specifications and try to do something without using AI.

To be honest, specially because of time consuming I think it's impossible to beat AI. Actually I don't want to beat AI lol I dare not have that presumption!

But let's see what I got.

After about 2 hours reading the QRCode specifications (I still need more time to understand better the error correction levels, colors and contrast, etc) I've been able to start creating something using Adobe Illustrator.

Ok! Result is far from the beauty of the image made using AI but this is my first attempt. For the first attempt I preferred to use the Leo logo and don't go ahead with a more creative art. In my opinion it's better to begin smoothly and evolute.

All 4 QRCodes are functional and points you to https://leofinance.io

Note: It might happen you can't read the Qrcode at first, my intention was to create something that looks art and depreciate the QRCode correction level. If you have some difficulties in scan them try to move away a bit your QRCode reader.
