I got me the Validator Node License in Splinterlands. Some thoughts...

avatar

Earlier in the week I was writing about getting into the Genesis League Sport cards and how the rumor was going about licenses coming from Splinterlands soil and owners of the nodes potentially could have big advantages

"What got me triggered to ape in? The rumor that Splinterlands license nodes rewards might also apply to GLS license nodes. Can you even image. I don't even own an license node!"


This sentence kept resonating in my head after writing this....because I didn't own any license node NFTs. Now why didn't I? The same reason as all reasons, they feel too expensive. But is that still true?





This is the schedule on where the licenses are sold. We are now in Tranche number 2 which means the price of one license is $5000 (holy fuck that is a lot of monies) but with 500 vouchers (cost about 0.5 hive per voucher) so with roughly said 250 hive aka 125 dollar worth of voucher you can get $2500 discount (still a crapload of money)





Now I was the non-genius to not step into the inital presale because I just need some time for all of this to sink in if I want and need it, and most of all if I find it worth it. That means you have to deal with the consquences of what the price is now and I find the Splinterlands price way too high.

Moving over to the secondary market on Hive-engine we were able to see





We were able to see that the price of a license on the hive-engine market is around 3178 Hive for 1 license aka $1493 dollar (wow this still hurts if I write it like this)

Luckily we are in an area where we produce stuff. We produce DEC, we produce Hive, we do stuff. So I spent this $1493 dollar worth of Hive on my license, and not a single dollar of that came from my fiat. That came from blogging, that came from doing stuff. (but is still my stash and it hurts hahaha), that was produced by me and that feels good.





The returns of the node per day?






Landed in my wallet just because I am doing nothing is 22 SPS and 4 Vouchers. 4 vouchers is approx 2 hive and 22 SPS is approx 2.7 hive and this is deposited every day.

Now I hear you thinking...Why on earth would you buy something that will give you only 4 hive per day when you just have spend 3176 on there which means it will pay itself back in 794 days?



Always gnarly to transfer something big. When you want to deposit you license from Hive-engine to you splinterlands account you need to transfer it to @steemmonsters . No shit, but reallt good to know. I triple checked before doing this

Well that my friends is because of the current price. SPS has dumped, Voucher has dumped. You can always sell the license node again as you can see in the chart there is enough fluctuation for you to sell at a decent price somewhere along the line.

But as I had written above is the real reason:

"What got me triggered to ape in? The rumor that Splinterlands license nodes rewards might also apply to GLS license nodes. Can you even image. I don't even own an license node!"

And now I do. Let it reign on me!
