RE: 😆 Lets Talk About Splintertalk / SPT & Use Cases!

Right now, at least it serves the purpose of getting the posts that have more effort put into them in the trending page so those that visit splintertalk.io at least are presented with something decent enough.

Very good point and its a very good reason the Splintertalk site should be advertised more than it is.

The actual value of the coin mostly comes from the speculation of a further use case which I'm quite sure will come making it now the zone of maximum opportunity for SPT imo.

I agree, SPT is unbelievably cheap at present time. I think it would be a shame to not have an in game use case for the SPT token.

I guess one of the questions that needs to be asked is if it would be best to give SPT a peg similar to DEC for in-game purchases or not and at what rate. This alone would give it an instant use-case for the game. There is just far from enough volume to accept it in the game as a regular currency based on the current price.

I don't see the devs giving it a peg for all in game purchases. I could possibly see a situation where there's a mini series of SPT cards that are essentially Promo cards going for set rates of SPT. I could see the same for SKINS and/or future items. The market itself would then sort out what the SPT coin would be worth (likely based on the resale value of such items).

• Common- 2000 SPT
• Rare - 5000 SPT
• Epic- 10000 SPT
• Legendary - 25000 SPT

(Made up SPT Prices, I have no clue what "fair" would be in the above scenario)

I like the idea to introduce skins and cosmetic items in the game that are also given out as part of the rewards and have no monetary value or extra benefits aside from making the look more diverse and personal for each user (similar to how Fortnite skins are a multi-billion dollar market).

That would be interesting but I feel as this game is investment and rewards heavy so the majority of players will likely want everything monetized when possible.

I guess similar to all large SPT holders, I wouldn't mind for the inflation to be cut down or a heavy burn function to be implemented. Overall the values right now for the biggest paid posts in SPT are still rather low. a 10k SPT post payout which only comes down to 1.25$ (after curation rewards). If anything, it shows how cheap SPT is now. I'm almost fomoing myself into buying more :)

I almost fomo myself as well. A burn function was something that I had on my mind while typing out this post but I didn't have any good ideas for one so I didn't include it. I might start a, all the SPT from this post will get burned post within the next few days and see how it turns out.
