Splinterlands - Reflecting on 2021 and My Plan for 2022

For those who have invested into Splinterlands prior to 2021 or even before June of this year we have seen extreme price appreciation of Splinterlands assets over the course of less than six months. Since its near the end of the year I would like to reflect on the year with regards to my Splinterlands and what I plan to do for 2022 in hopes to continue my wealth in Splinterlands and in cryptocurrency.

Splinterlands End of 2021

I was able to cross 1 million collection point this year and my present card net worth is around $60,000. Although it has dropped from an all time high of around $80k I have also been adding into my SPS stake and DEC stake.

On the rich list for collection power and SPS total respectively I am close to top 1000. I will be eyeing to get myself into the top 1,000 in both these categories come 2022.

Finally for assets beyond just cards and SPS I have 5 land plots and a couple of unopened Dice packs. I intend to see through the land expansion introduction before I do anything with my land holdings. The price is still hovering over $600 a plot, somewhat lower than all time high of $1,000 but still reasonable asset not to ignore in grand scheme of things.

For a total net worth of my Splinterlands assets I would say it is close to $70k when I include everything.

Splinterlands Investing For 2022 and Beyond

I kind of briefly talked about what my goals are for 2022 but here is a more detailed plan.

Moving forward in the new year general sale of the Chaos packs will begin. This will be a time where most Splinterlands cards could possibly get into circulation, where there is a potential of 12 million packs being sold. That is equivalent to 60 million cards, which is more than 6 times current circulation.

I have been collecting DEC since the first 1 million Chaos packs pre-sale. I did not purchase any packs and have yet to purchase any packs to date. For watching how the Chaos rewards cards have been effected I have decided to hold onto my DEC and any liquidity in crypto I can get my hands on for the general sale. When that approaches I will be watching how aggressive the pack sales will be and determine if I will go buy packs with my liquidity.

However the real goal I have set my eyes on is for a max Chaos deck. Over the years my Splinterlands collection has been a bit of a scattered collection. I have multiple cards in older editions I never got to max level and only max level cards are a couple of summoners with a few reward cards. I envision come 2022 to setup a full max Chaos deck so I can compete and play against some of the best players in the game. This will go in conjunction in what is anticipated to be a split in league play were new league includes Chaos cards.

For the classic league I would most likely rent out my older cards to retain some sort of passive income stream. The stream will help me continue adding toward my Chaos max deck goal and accumulate more DEC + SPS holdings.

I have to address the other side of my largest crypto holding before I end this post. Currently I am heavily invested in Hive Power and anticipate to continue doing so for 2022. From 2019 thru late 2020 I had been powering down my Hive Power and using liquid Hive to invest in Splinterlands cards. Although I never power down to zero Hive Power I mostly power down enough to be heavily invested in Splinterlands.

Now as Splinterlands cards have risen in price to the point that powering down my Hive Power will not get enough liquidity to purchase much I have decided to keep staking Hive instead. In 2022 I will maintain this approach where what I earn posting and rewards in HP will continue to be staked for the foreseeable future. This can change if there are Hive projects I deem worth wild to invest in but for now staking HP is helping my Hive footprint.

Conclusions

I look forward to what 2022 will have in store for Splinterlands. I intend to be investing into the game even more as many new features comes online. The long awaited land expansion and of course the continuation of Chaos Legions packs & rewards cards distribution.

In the price front I am not very good at predicting how prices will go but anything up is going to be good for all Splinterlands investors. Look forward to playing with many players come 2022 as I try to gather a full max deck.

Until next time thanks for reading!!!
