What have you been doing with your Splinterlands profit?

If you've been in and around Splinterlands in the last couple of months, then it's safe to say that you're experiencing some level of financial improvement in your life. Virtually everything about the game has experienced some level of upheaval in market value, and it has been an amazing experience.

This morning, I saw a tweet from one user who bought his mother-in-law a car with the profit he made from Splinterlands. According to the tweet, he mentioned SPS staking and stacking DEC in particular, as the main catalysts behind his expenditure.

I didn't pry to know how much the car costs or anything because that's not necessary. For me, it's just incredible how a simple game could morph into something this huge and it also makes me wonder how much more growth is in the works.

I'm living in the moment and taking it all in my stride as the platform continues to grow from strength to strength, and I can't help but be in awe of everything that's going on.

A game is funding my life

It's wild to say it but it's totally true. This game has been a revelation and has taken my financial status to another level.

The surge in the value of assets has dramatically improved my quality of life and has also enabled me to concentrate on other investment opportunities.

For example, I've been staking pretty much all the Hive-engine tokens I earn from posts because I no longer have to sell them to fund my life.

Also, thanks to the fact that I'm printing DEC every day from battles, as well as SPS tokens, I no longer have to sell my HBD from post rewards. In fact, I've been accumulating a lot of HBD in recent times.

Right now, I have 394 HBD in savings and I'll be sending even more to savings. If I can accumulate a decent amount of HBD into savings, that 10% APR could actually turn into legitimate income.

Taking profit is healthy

As I said earlier, taking profit from SPlinterlands has literally funded my life. The earnings have improved the way I live and has also enabled me to get certain things that make my life less miserable in Nigeria.

For example, I was able to buy a 55-inch Television to replace the one I had before. I sent the older one, which was only a couple of months old to my brother and it was a nice surprise for him. I originally wanted to sell it but then I just figured it would be better to gift it to someone.

I also made a bunch of other "smaller" purchases like Ghost of Tsushima, my Playstation headset, a high-end phone with awesome features a router, and a mega internet bundle that covers for one year.

On top of all of that, Splinterlands has also been the only place that I've been pulling out funds for our day-to-day life. We try to live within our budget because although these are times of plenty, we still have bigger targets ahead of us.

One of such bigger targets is our escape from Nigeria. That's still not within my price range at the moment and the only way to get there will be to sell off all my Splinterlands assets. That's obviously a bad idea, so for now, I'm also just accumulating stables, one day at a time, towards achieving the target.

In summary

So what have I been doing with my Splinterlands profit? I've been doing everything humanly possible to maximise the benefit in my life.

I've been staking/reinvesting chunks of it back to the game. I've been investing in improving the quality of life my family lives.

I've been mixing up our short and long-term targets into the plans and just trying to live a quality lifestyle. All my eggs aren't in one basket but this is my golden goose that laid the eggs, so I'm going to be camping with the goose for a while.

I hope things continue to get better and the game continues to grow as well. If we can 8x DEC and SPS rises to around $5, I think I'll be able to sort out the long-term target in one big swoop. Dreaming is free you know?

I’ve not taken so much out of mine, most sales have been left in DEC to get more SPS, so my profit is still pretty much locked in. I’m very occupied with growing my stables for now, with accumulating few liquids here and there in case of spikes. I’m able to conveniently afford a decent lifestyle now though, pay for internet and good food and I no dey carry woman so I’m able to save a lot more than before.

Renting, staking, and compounding. I invested less than $100 during the alpha phase and pulled some very nice cards. Still don't see a reason to take any profits or sell any cards.

Splinterlands is a much better game than AXIE and many others out there, I see no reason why it won't completely dominate the NFT market once everyone realizes it is an actual working product, not a work of fiction like many others.

I've been thinking about starting up Axie for a while. I even downloaded the app and everything but I've not just pulled the trigger yet.

It makes no economic sense for people that are used to spending $60 on games. If they are the targeted audience you can't reach them with a $3k minimum pay-to-play.

$3k? That's quite an expensive entry amount. Seems more like a crypto investment than a game tbh.

You can theoretically start with less than $1k but if you want to actually play the game and be competitive $3k seems to be the entry sum.

One more reason why I expect Splinterlands to be a much bigger game than Axie.

You have to dream about something dude

Amazing how 'just a game' is literally changing lives so much and paying the bills. Will take some SPS profts for sure as well here but not sure as yet what I will do with them in terms of cashing out and actually buying something or risk into something crypto-ish..stuff to think about!

That was a great read, it's really amazing seeing the possibility with play to earn investments today, Splinterlands surely made that possible without the need to empty our wallets, and surely will pave the way for future PTE games. Exciting all around!! Thank you for sharing your story, it truly is wonderful to see the tangible outcomes of profit benefiting lives that Splinterlands offers!🤗

I invested 1k4$ in Splinterlands and already cashed out 1k$.
Now I still have 1500SPS, 24k card power in my deck and some DEC. I plan to cash out ~ 300$ per month.
Hope I can achieve this target :)
