My Splinterlands Journey | -30.02% after 9 Months

avatar

Greetings Splinterfolk!

The purpose of this series of posts is to record my investment in Splinterlands and to ultimately determine if it was worth it or not.

Splinterlands Journey.png

Overview.png

I began my Splinterlands journey at the beginning of October 2021 after reading an article about the Play-to-Earn genre in the NFT world. Due to my love of trading card games, I was naturally drawn to Splinterlands. Before I knew it, I found myself with several accounts and spending a good couple of hours playing everyday.

The first couple of months was devoted to playing everyday and alternating on which accounts I played in order to maximize the daily rewards and ECR. Before long, I managed to turn $70 into $400, which is $330 profit or 471% ROI. Read more about it here.

At the beginning of 2022, I switched jobs and found myself with little to no time for Splinterlands. Fortunately, there are multiple ways to immerse yourself in the game. While I no longer had the time to juggle multiple accounts and play regularly, I was (and still am) able to blog about my experiences and manage my assets. For example, I decided to invest into the newly released Chaos Legion set. Read more about it here.

Thoughts and Comments.png
Since my last update, I have lost $858.25 in value. It's crazy what one month can do... I still have not taken up the initiative of diversifying my Splinterland assets. However, I have been thinking lately about selling all of my cards and buying investment cards to rent out at a consistent price. I think I will wait for the Modern and Wild format to be released to see the new meta that forms and, subsequently, the cards worth investing in.

My Referral Program.png

While Splinterlands does have a referral program in place, it only benefits the referrer and not the referee. Therefore, it is up to us (the existing players) to create our own referral program to help new players enter into the game. Here is how mine works:

  • Sign up for Splinterlands through my referral link here.
  • Once you buy the Summoner's Spellbook, I will receive 500 credits ($0.50) which I will use to buy DEC, cards, or both to help you start your Splinterlands journey.
  • All you need to do is comment below the IGN you used to sign up with. Once I have verified it, I will reach out to see what you would like to spend your $0.50 on and then send it over.
