How did you start in Splinterlands?

These were my first five chests in Splinterlands. In one of them was the Lava Launcher. At that moment the card was worth around $0.80 dollar. Currently it has fallen all the way down to $0.11 dollar. I didn't even really own cards, I just managed to get five wins for these chests I believe. This gives me the question. Should we bring back some monetary value in chests for the upcoming bull market? Like the soulbound cards just do not give me the same feeling for now. At least the cards should be unlockable to sell right away to attract new players.

Also we do not have card packs in chests anymore. It kind of feels the same for me lately. Empty. Looking back at these moments and the joy I felt at that particular time. I am hoping that the new reward system gives me that feeling of joy back, playing and earning. What brought you back into the game? I am dying to know!
