The Future of Grain and Land in Splinterlands: My Perspective

There’s an ongoing buzz in the Splinterlands community around Grain as it relates to land, and it’s a discussion I’ve found myself increasingly invested in. Since the announcement of Grain, I’ve redirected my focus, watching its value and use cases evolve in unexpected ways. The journey has been a bit of a rollercoaster—with constant updates, pivots, and changes, it’s easy to feel like land has taken a backseat for months. However, I see this as a pivotal area where the game’s ecosystem can truly take root and flourish.

Watching land assets perform has been a mixed experience. Land’s potential to drive Splinterlands’ economy feels promising, but the journey to this point hasn’t always inspired confidence. The constant shifts have kept players on their toes, though the recent vote to bring Cryptomancer on board to steer development has been reassuring. His transparency around updates has been refreshing and, hopefully, a sign that the future of land is beginning to solidify.

As for Grain, it’s evident there’s currently an oversupply given how version 1.5 of land was deployed. But from early on, I saw this as an opportunity. By stockpiling Grain now, I’m betting on its future scarcity as others consume it, reducing their production while I maintain a buffer. This approach will likely provide me with valuable efficiencies down the line. Given the current price, I’m even tempted to buy more, though my DEC reserves are already stretched thin with demands across various aspects of the game.

I’m encouraged by Grain’s potential and the long-term value it could bring to the Splinterlands economy. With any luck, this is just the start, and if land can finally receive the focus it deserves, we’ll all benefit from the growth of the ecosystem. Here’s hoping we don’t miss this opportunity to shape Splinterlands’ future in a meaningful way.

With the announcement of 1.75, the price of land has gone up quite a bit as well. I remember "normal" plots being available for 9$, and even got two plots with farms and BIB for only 10$. Now 15$ is the lowest price, and that without anything. We'll see how the development of 1.75 goes, and with that if the price stays up there - if it's delayed again, it might fall and give chances for more buys :-)

I agree with you - once the rollout of the Land Update happens and the introduction of the other Resources...

Grain Production will drastically drop... but consumption will grow...

Supply Down... Demand Up... Price...?

This is a no-brainer lol :P

Good on you for being on board the #GrainTrain 😁

I'm lucky if I remember to harvest my grain at the end of every brawl cycle to avoid letting my plots go to 100%. I am completely off the plot on land besides my RUNEGUARD prefix title, but I have all my work in SPS and research currently, because like you said, my grain stockpile is CRAZY big! Plus I have more grain on my two alt accounts that is not being used since I shut down those 10 plots to pillage the DEC.
