RE: Market Listing Fees & Expiration

You are viewing a single comment's thread:

I like this change. It burns DEC for those who are not paying attention; and allows the programs with NFTY Arcade and other 1 on 1 agreements between players, card holders and scholars to continue as they do now.

Allow me to elaborate, though:

All new reward cards are soul bound. Traditionally, the market for 1BCX cards were in legendary or epic cards that are not part of the "ghost cards" or starter set.

This means that there will be less of these 1 BCX starter set cards thrown onto the market by bots and people in hopes of people trying to fulfil Collection Power for higher leagues.

This change is done in concert with other changes that make the game more efficient for those who are paying attention as new players:

  • Higher R Share for cards levelled appropriately to the league
  • Proposed future SPS staking requirement in lieu of collection power requirements for higher leagues.

I think that this is a change that needs to be observed not in isolation, but in in concert with the other changes that are on the roadmap that everyone knows are coming, along with those that have already been implemented.

Finally, a question: has the Splinterlands team contemplated the impact that a third party developer may have if they were to build an alternative marketplace that did not use sm_rent tx; but instead did "delegations for x" instead?

Would this not defeat the purpose of this proposed "tx fee" on the markets, and just shift the load (and presumed AWS server costs) - elsewhere?

For my understanding this would not really work great as in this case IMO the card owner can take back the cards every time and not only to the end of the rental contract (minimum 2 days, than every day).
So as renter you can't be sure to have the card for 2 days, the card owner can take them back 5 minutes after you rent them, isn't it ?

This would require trust between the two individuals.

Yes but you spoke from a " third party developer", so I understand that you mean something like Peakmonsters.
Let's say if Peakmonsters would do it in that way how they could be sure that every owner will accept the time and not take back cards manuelly.
In addition it can also happen in error, you just select a wrong card and the renter lost his card for playing even if he has paid for it.

I thought a little bit and I think it is possible.
Peakmonster even done it at the start in that way:

Peakmonster (for example) take the escrow from the renter of the card and keep it.
When the contract (or day) finish normally Peakmonsters pay (for example every day) the escrow to the cardowner (95%).
When the cardowner has undelegated the card peakmonster sent the escrow back to the renter and the cardowner get nothing.

Yes, it was just an example with Peakmonsters as I remember that they done it with an escrow when they start, they add this in addition to the rental price and shared it 50/50 when the contract run till the end, when he was cancelled (what could to this also happen when the renter had not enough token for the next day) that one who cancelled got nothing and the other got the complete escrow.
