Splinterlands - The promo cards for SPS Holders becomes a culture of its own

avatar

There is no doubt that the current Vruz promo card for SPS holders was a blast and for me, this signified a way that the Splinterland team gave back a little bit of value to all the investors and players from this great game. I was lucky enough to get almost 100 cards, of which 2 of them were Gold Foils. As I needed a solid investment to max them out, I decided to sell them on the open market. With regular cards going for around $0.50 and the 2 Gold Foils getting e $15, that translated into about $60 earnings from this promotion. I didn't count the value of the vouchers that I traded for them, but that shouldn't chip too much into the profits.

Vruz promo card

The first Promo card for SPS holders was Vruz and it needed just 1 Voucher for a card which probably allowed many investors to get some without much hustle if they are staking SPS like me. By selling the cards I made a bit of profit which is one that I haven't done for probably one year or more. As I am a holder and didn't make a move on the market in 2021 when the Splinterlands assets were skyrocketing, I am slowly balancing growing my assets in the game and also taking some profits when it makes sense. For example for now I am staking SPS like crazy and soon will get to 100,000 SPS, but I have no desire to sell any. If the market improves, I might make a move but at these prices, it simply doesn't make sense. And as the game keeps on developing and growing, I believe assets like SPS or cards will only grow in value.

Next promo card

The next promo card for SPS Holders might come earlier than expected and based on the last Splinterlands AMA that should happen somewhere in April. Things will not be the same going further and SPS holders will not be able to grab new Promo cards for pennies, but mostly DEC will be required for them. But even so, I believe there will be still some meat left on the bone and SPS holders should see the benefits of being long-term investors in the game. And to tell you the truth, I can barely wait to see this launched and make my move.

While these might seem like drops in an ocean of investments, they can sum up quite a bit in time. I am in Splinterlands for a long as I am one of the early adopters when the game was launched and the Alpha cards first saw the light of day. The game continues to improve and I am planning to enjoy and have fun with it, while also strategizing in order to maximize my returns proportionally with the investments that I've made. Steady growth in everything is key to sustainability and this is how I plan to move along!

Come join the amazing world from the Splinterlands!

Being just one promo card released at once, I think it is pretty decent even if it would be every month. For me the full editions are scary where Splinterlands might want to throw on the market over 10 Million packs... that's killing any value in the game.

Oh, there will be more promo cards for VOUCHERS? I didn't realize that it was going to be a periodic thing and I thought it would be a one time thing. I kind of sold all my VOUCHERS so I hope that I gather enough tokens for the next set of promo cards.

Aggro said that the new promo cards would not require (only) vouchers, but probably also DEC. Hopefully, they will leave some meat on the bone also for buyers in case they want to sell afterward, otherwise, we'll see this deflating pretty fast.

The Vruz promo in relation to SPS staking was a good one to incentivize staking, I expect more of such a Promo in the future, April is here lol, and I sold my VOUCHER for SPS.

Glad to know you made a quick 60$ profit. I wish you the best of luck with the next promo card for holders ;)

Wow, 60 usd for just staking sps is not bad... And besides the vouchers spent on them won't be that bad because you are still getting vouchers from the sps staking... That's really legit!

I think similar to you that the Vruz promo card was a great move to reward SPS stakers and maybe incentivize others to stake their SPS tokens for future promos... Also, it was a great sink for VOUCHERS... Not sure about the next promo card and using DEC instead VOUCHERS, but we will see...

I was lucky with this card... Bought 93 and got 5 gold-foiled! I kept my regular cards and sold GF as you did... Took some profits and bought other cards that I need more 😃


I have picked this post on behalf of the @OurPick project which will be highlighted in the next post!

Great move and indeed 5 GF out of 93 is pretty nice. Even if they will move with DEC for acquiring new Promo cards for SPS holders, I hope they will give them a big discount to have some profits from reselling them. Otherwise, it will just be another token black hole for Splinterlands and the SPS holders buyers will end up without any benefit.

You were guaranteed to get 1 GF every 25 cards. So something is wrong.
Well actually looks like screenshot is photoshopped LOL.

Yeah, I didn't take a screenshot when claimed and found one an put my numbers. Thing is that I haven't bought all cards at once... first time I bought 43, the second time 9, another time 33, and so on... and probably this is why I got only 2 Gold Foils. If I would only know that I get 1 GF at every 25 cards I would have bought them at once... :(

Oh, I assumed that you didn't take screenshot while buying, that's why you had to photoshop it, but still the numbers were not correct. But now it makes sense.
So yeah, a bit unlucky :(
